SYN:
Larry
joins the Woman Haters Club's only to break his oath shortly
afterward when he falls head over heels and marries a blonde
beauty named Mary (played by the up-and-coming beauty Marjorie
White). Moe and Curly, also proud members of the Woman Haters
Club, get steamed when they learn of the marriage during Mary
and Larry's honeymoon train trip west. While inside Moe and
Curly's train berth, Mary informs them that Larry is her man
and that all "no-women agreements" are now null and
void. While making her point and standing her ground, she ends
up pushing them out the train window.
