SYN:
Curly wins a $50,000 dollar radio
contest for coming up with the best slogan for a popular product Stix-Fast
Glue.
Curly's
slogan:
"Roses are Red, Violets are Blue, try
Stix-Fast Glue, and you'll be stuck too!"
To
celebrate their newfound wealth, the Stooges decide to spend a night
in the most luxurious Hotel in town, Hotel Costa Plente (and believe
me, it does). They celebrate lavishly, well, too lavishly when they
break a $5,000 dollar rare vase, drink about 15 bottles of high-dollar
champagne, and tear up an antique bed that went back to Louie the
VIII. In a matter of hours, they have three lucious golddigging women
trying to spoon off their earnings. Then, after the hotel manager
delivers their whopping bill, along with Curly's contest telegram,
things go from bad to worse. Curly's telegram informs him that, after
the normal tax deductions, only $4.85 remains out of his winnings!

Did you know that this short was remade
with Shemp as the 3rd Stooge as "A Missed Fortune" in
1952?
