Maybe not the best of Laurel and Hardy's many short subjects, but definitely has some novel twists--such as having them pull the sequence to a close by sliding the image across the screen to make way for the next shot. And the ending is a clever switch of the Laurel and Hardy personalities after a blood transfusion goes awry.
The boys begin by pulling a "who gave who the money to pay so and so" that's about as classic as the Abbott and Costello "Who's on first?" routine. DAPHNE POLLARD is Oliver Hardy's harassed wife who is so diminutive that she has to climb a chair in order to hit him over the head with a frying pan after one of his crazy schemes (at an auction) ends up with him having to turn over all their money for a grandfather clock which gets crushed by a truck.
Enjoyable romp for Laurel and Hardy fans. The twist ending serves as the icing on the cake.
