Mistakenly identified as representatives of B.O. Pictures' publicity department, the Stooges, initially enlisted as exterminators, are assigned the responsibility of staging a contrived kidnapping to enhance the studio's publicity campaign featuring the emerging actress, Dolly Devore. However, their plan is intercepted by two gangsters who perpetrate a genuine abduction of Devore from her hotel room. Subsequently, the Stooges find themselves compelled to intervene and rescue Devore from the clutches of the criminals.
In the ensuing rescue attempt, Shemp finds himself perilously stranded on an outdoor ledge while masquerading as Devore inside a garment bag. With Shemp's life hanging in the balance, a tense standoff unfolds as the Stooges and Devore collaborate to fashion a makeshift rope to secure Shemp's safety. Amidst the chaos, a fortuitous mishap occurs when one of the criminals inadvertently becomes entangled in the rope, enabling Devore and Moe to incapacitate the perpetrators.
Simultaneously, Larry endeavors to enlist the assistance of law enforcement authorities, only to encounter skepticism regarding the authenticity of the situation. Undeterred, Larry resorts to unconventional methods, luring the police back to the scene of the crime by provoking a chase. Ultimately, the timely intervention of the police facilitates the apprehension of the criminals and ensures the resolution of the crisis.
Throughout the ordeal, the Stooges navigate a series of precarious situations, including Larry's near-fatal mishap and the subsequent comedic escapades culminating in their unexpected descent into a bathtub filled with water. Despite the tumultuous events, the Stooges emerge relatively unscathed, humorously reflecting on their misadventures as they indulge in a well-deserved moment of respite.
