Trivia
An unhappy Buster Keaton had left Columbia after filming of this short ended and vowed never to make another "crummy" two-reeler for the studio. Felix Adler had written another script for another short to star Keaton, titled What A Soldier!, but was shelved and eventually made with Joe Besser as Dizzy Yardbird (1950).

Decent and A Fitting End to Keaton's Stint at Columbia

Buster Keaton was never proud of the 10 two-reelers he made at Columbia Pictures as he was now a has-been who was desperate for a job and needed money to support his wife and family, but at least Keaton goes out with a bang in this reworking of his own silent film The Passionate Plumber. He and Monte Collins are owners of a plumbing shop who get mixed up with an oil heiress trying to avoid her wealthy, but dumb boyfriend. Nothing special, but not a bad short, but after filming completed, Keaton, fed up with the directionless of his Columbia shorts, left the studio for good.
