SYN: Now, this is a coincidence! The Stooges are about to be married, and discover that in each of their cases, it was the woman who proposed. Moreover, Moe, Larry and Joe have dates planned for the same evening and at the same time. They are not pleased, however, to find that they've been getting played all along. Mabel, the curvaceous blonde bombshell is a deceitful young philly. Her plot is unravelled when the Stooges discover that they're all at the same place, on the same date, with the same woman, who happens to be engaged to every last one of them. Wow...my head is spinning! After administering near lethal doses of punishment to one another, Joe comes to the realization that they shouldn't be hurting each other. Instead, he decides to take his anger out on Mabel by unloading a gun filled with upholstery tacks into her butt. Looks who's getting played now Mabel! Now go put some band-aids on that can of yours before I really get mad! Oh, and while you're at it, give those poor jokers their rings back!

Quick Hits:

- Did you know that if you watch really closely, you can see Shemp's portrait in the stock footage of Mabel's apartment?

- New scenes included the Stooges having pancakes ("Flipper's Fluffy Fablongent Flapjacks") for breakfast, and when Mabel prepares to walk out on the boys, Joe suddenly returns with an automatic B-B gun loaded with tacks and uses Mabel's derriere for target practice!
