[edit] Plot

Near West Coast Studios in Hollywood, the Our Gang kids are waging a street war against a rival group of kids; their ammunition primarily consisting of old vegetables. The battle is halted when Mary is called to act in one of the West Coast film. The rest of the gang tries to crash the studio gates and get a role in the picture, but the casting director throws them out. Little Farina manages to sneak into the studio, however, prompting the other kids to sneak in after him and several chases throughout the property to ensue.
