      The short is set in Egyptian times, yet rubber wheels are visible on the chariot they are trying to sell.

      Moe: I'm Honest Moe, that's Honest Shemp, and that's... that's Larry.

    These Guys Always Land on Their Feet (Or Others)
    It's ancient Egypt and the boys are selling used chariots. Their bad products end up with them being sentenced to execution. But thanks to another con job (Schemp being a dentist), the Pharaoh gives them a reprieve. The problem is that they have formed some bad connections with others who aren't powerful but are dangerous. This is one of the better Stooge films with lots of slapstick and the usual nuttiness.
