SYN: It took six months for John Bradley to accumulate his priceless colleciton of antiques and china, so naturally he is concerned about the crashing and smaching sounds emanating from the Stooge-owned Superior Warehouse and Storage Co. One item that doesn't break, however, is a copper lamp, which Shemp delightedly rubs free of dust. This is no ordinary lamp, and the magnificent genie that bursts forth in a puff of smoke is pleased to grant Shemp whatever wishes his heart desires. But Shemp is not the only one with an affection for genies. Arabian thieves have tracked the lamp to the Stooges' warehouse, and are more than willing to use four-foot sabres and razor-sharp daggers to express their displeasure with the genie's new masters. The Stooges get the last laugh when they use their final wish producing a room full of harem girls and many treasures.

Quick Hits:

- Moe, who was always adept to dialects, spouts some wonderfully fake Chinese.
