This classic starts off with The Three Stooges in court, accused of stealing chickens from Mrs. Throttlebottom's chicken coop. Justice does not prevail, and the Stooges are found innocent. Now free, Moe, Larry, and Curly cause more mischief by fishing for their supper... in a fish tank in front of a pet store. They're caught by a police officer, and when hiding in Bilbo the Magician's magic box fails, they steal Casey the plumber's truck for a getaway. Stopping at a mansion, the butler comes out and tells the "plumbers" they are an hour late and need to get to work right away. Before they can explain they're not plumbers, the police officer who was chasing them appears, so they quickly inform the butler they are "the best plumbers to ever plumb a plum," rushing into the mansion before the officer catches them. Total mayhem ensues as the Stooges try to be good plumbers, but in lovable Stooge fashion, fail miserably. 1940
