Mad scientist Richard Carle is musing that he needs a human brain for his research. There's a knock on the door, and it's Laurel and Hardy. So he sends them to the graveyard to dig one up.
It had been more than a years since DO DETECTIVES THINK had contained a funny graveyard scene, and there's a lot here to suggest that. There's a tremendous amount of spooky shadows by the wall, the Boys are terrified, ad so forth. There are also plenty of new gags, and a long, fully ornamented scene of them trying to get over a wall. Stan was a great gag technician who could direct his own movies. Here he's working with James Parrott, who also was a fine gagman.
