Rl. March 10 / Prod. No. 4224 / 16 m / p d Jules White / st scr Felix Adler / ad Abner E. Singer / ph Ray Cory / e Henry Batista / a Carl Anderson / C: Jean Willes (Jane), Emil Sitka (Charlie), Al Thompson (Moe's Stand-In), Hurley Breen (Shemp's Stand-In) and Charlie Cross (Larry's Stand-In)

SYN: Larry and Shemp are delighted to bump into each other at the Woman Haters Club 87, where they trade sorrowful tales to explain their memberships. Larry, it turned out, answered a classified ad from a beautiful woman who fell hard for his good looks until a jealous Moe violently intervened and claimed the dame as his own. Shemp's story is equally melancholy. After digesting a wonderful meal with his honey (who strangely looks just like Larry's girl), he became mortified to discover that the woman was married to the insanely possessive Moe. Swearing off women forever, Larry and Shemp celebrate their newfound brotherhood...until they're introduced to they're newest member of the Woman Haters Club: Moe.
