Short Number 135 In Theatres 11/1/1951
The Stooges are choreographers at B. O. Pictures who are assigned to teach island natives how to dance. Seems that the studio's president Mr. Baines (Emil
Sitka) has purchased the island of Rarabonga for his next musical extravaganza, but learns that the locals have never heard of dancing.
When the Stooges arrive at Rarabonga, they soon learn that the natives are head hunters under the control of powerful witch doctor King Varanu (Kenneth
MacDonald). Shemp makes it clear he does not want the "hair cuts down to my neck!" and try to flee with the help of the King's daughter Luana (Jean Willes). She
advises that it would be in the Stooges' best interests to get their hands on a box of surplus World War II hand grenades guarded by a living Kali type four-
armed totem idol (Lei Aloha). After getting the daylights beat out of them by the fierce idol, the boys grab the box of grenades, and fool the King into
thinking the box houses a living spirit out to destroy his people. The King attempts to "kill" the spirit by slicing it with his huge sword, and the grenades
promptly explode, blowing him out of the atmospehre.
