The whole time of this short is spent in a stopped railroad car, and that's pretty much how the comedy is too. This is a "minimalist" Stooge short because there are no scene changes, no varied support cast, no foils like Vernon Dent to run up against, and the Stooges are all playing separate characters, not a team. Shemp plays a drunk through out the whole time, which wears thin after about five minutes. I don't know what Larry's position is in all this mess, and Moe is gruff as always as a detective. None of this gels. It's as if Chaplin or Orson Welles were directing this as an experimental film, and they had their goof ups too. This short it totally miss able.
