[edit] Plot
The Stooges are hired to drum up publicity for Dolly Devore (Christine McIntyre), and arrange a fake kidnapping. When the police arrive, they do not believe the kidnapping story. However, Dolly is actually kidnapped a short time later. At the end, Shemp is hanging from a tenth-floor window on an extending telephone.
