[edit] Synopsis

Stan and Ollie are sent to prison after apparently taking part in a hold-up raid, a raid they tell a prison officer they were only watching. After attempting to escape and being sent to dig ditches with other convicts on work detail, they start a rice-throwing melee with the visiting governor and his party. This comes about when they accidentally puncture the radiator in the prison inspector's car and then stupidly try to patch it with rice.

[edit] Opening Title

'Neither Mr. Laurel nor Mr. Hardy had any thoughts of doing wrong. As a matter of fact, they had no thoughts of any kind.'
