Well, we had to start somewhere right? (BTW don't shoot me if I'm wrong on this but at episode number 9 for their Paramount run, I'm pretty sure this is correct.) Like the first (Paramount) episode that the Stooges use power tools (like deadly table saws). The first episode where they mix deadly tonics from a druggist store (mixed in a rubber boot of course). The first episode where they mix with contemporary high society (no pies though here). Well you get all of those "firsts" as far as the Paramount run goes right here. Granted they did some of this stuff in feature films and with Healy before this but most people identify the Stooges with their 23 year run at Paramount and this is within the Stooges first 10 episodes of that. This is one of the best Stooges episode in my opinion, they do a little bit of everything in it, and the destruction they wreak upon the rich blows any pie throwing scene away! This one truly sets the bar as far as the best of the Stooges and you will see many of the same routines done here over and over again verbatim over the years. Is it perfect and the best Stooges episode ever? Maybe, maybe not, but it's one of their best. Is the material original to the Stooges? No way. Curly does a fork and roll dance copying (pretty badly) Chaplin's in The Gold Rush and all the gags with power tools and foaming concoctions were done in the silent films and as recently as a couple of years before this was made by Laurel and Hardy. BUT, this would make a great first episode to play a new comer to The Three Stooges. 10 of 10. The destruction is awesome and really made me laugh!
