A remake of Hoi Polloi, this was the first short from The Three Stooges that was a remake of an earlier one.
During a break in filming of this short, Curly Howard suffered a stroke, ending his film career (in the first part of the film. shot before the stroke, Curly is obviously in ill health; his movements are slowed considerably, as is his speech, he looks tired and has lost a noticeable amount of weight).
