When Mrs Crutch is about to give the kids castor oil after the big party - "I'm not going to have a bunch of sick children on *my* hands" - a close-up of the bottle reveals that it came from "Clyde W. Slater, druggist" at the address "Main and Washington Blvd, Culver City, Cal" Those streets are just a few blocks from the site of the Hal Roach Studios, at 8822 West Washington (corner of Washington and National), Culver City, California.

A wonderful though not standard Our Gang short

While the plot is highly predictable and the villain a bit too melodramatic, this short contains some truly great early special effects of people morphing between child and adult. The performances by the child actors of the Gang are typical of their usual cute mugging for the camera, but the performances of George Brasno and Olive Brasno as the two adults turned children are brilliant. The children of the Gang are reduced to comic supporting roles to the straight leads played by the two Brasnos, and that makes this short work all the better as it relies less on "cute kids" antics and utilizes true acting to carry the story.
