    Johnny hasn't heard about Jimmy's death and the news sobers him up. Slip convinces Johnny that he can get him back into fighting condition in order to earn money to help his mother. Slip, Sach and reporter Gabe promote a fight card to benefit the Higgins family. Soon, Jimmy's crooked manager, Blinky Harris, whom Slip feels was responsible for Jimmy's death, shows up, trying to attract new boxers to his stable but Slip throws him out. Slip announces that Johnny will soon make a comeback. Slip, acting as Johnny's manager, persuades Louie to let them use the loft of his sweet shop as a training gym for Johnny.
    Harris reveals to champ Dynamite Carson that Jimmy's fight was supposed to be have been fixed but Jimmy would not go along with it. Johnny enters the ring again and wins several fights, making himself eligible for a title match. The boxing commissioner agrees to Harris' suggestion that Johnny fight Joey Prince with the winner guaranteed a match with Carson. During the bout between Johnny and Prince, Prince takes a dive in the first round, claiming that Johnny was in on it, and both boxers are suspended. Harris, who engineered the dive, then tells Slip that Prince will clear Johnny and the match with Carson can occur, if Johnny takes a dive, then wins the rematch.
    Although Slip agrees to the plan, he and Johnny intend to double-cross Harris and win the first fight. As insurance, Harris has Boomer kidnapped on the day of the fight. In the locker room Slip receives a call that Harris has Boomer and that he will not be hurt as long as Johnny loses the fight. The gang combs the city and Sach follows one of Harris' men to the rooming house where Boomer is being held and helps the boy to escape. Meanwhile, Johnny spars with Carson for the early rounds in the hope that Boomer will be found and he will not have to take a dive. When Boomer appears at ringside, Johnny quickly attacks the champ.
    When Harris sees Boomer, he slips a metal rod into Carson's hand, and Johnny takes a beating, saved only by the bell. Sach sees the rod being removed between rounds and replaces it with a hot dog. With the rod gone, Johnny takes control and knocks Carson out. Afterward, Sach shows the rod to the commissioner, who tells Harris that they are going to take a trip to headquarters. Later, as the boys celebrate, Sach jokingly presents Slip with one of his hot dog buns, into which he has placed the metal rod.

While Slip and the boys are discussing ways to raise some money, a melodious singing voice is heard from across the room, and everyone is stunned to discover that it is Sach. Slip concludes that the operation has altered Sach's voice and immediately begins to plan his friend's singing career. He takes Sach across the street to Rick Martin's elegant Rio Cabana nightclub, where Rick's girl friend, Lola Stanton, sings, but Rick throws them out.

    A crowd assembles as Sach sings, and Slip and Gabe convince Louie to convert his sweet shop to a nightclub. When Louie's Bowery Palace opens, Sach, now known as the "Bowery Thrush," is a huge success, and Rick's club gradually loses all its business. Rick and Lola take in Louie's midnight show, which includes a tap dancing number by Sally, and when Slip rejects his offer to hire Sach, Rick resolves to defeat his competition through less honest means. He sends three thugs over to Louie's to disrupt the show, but when they are trounced by Sach's devoted female fans, Rick decides to play his trump card.

Masters
The Boys are privates in the Army who are assigned to guard Louie, who is being used to bait spies. Louie is kidnapped under their noses, but the boys get on his trail and round up the spies.
    The Boys enlist in the Army. Slip goes to the recruitment office demanding to know where the "incompetent infants" are. Slip is tricked into enlisting and the boys are sent to basic training camp in Stockton, where the boys infuriate the by-the-book Sergeant Frisbee. After complaining about their ill-fitting uniforms, Slip happens upon better clothes and the well-dressed group, now mistaken for new officers from Fort Bragg, are directed to the Officer's Club, where they keep up the hoax by blundering through the other officers' questions. When Frisbee announces that uniforms have been stolen, the imposters try to tiptoe out of trouble, but the ruse is uncovered and the five are sentenced to the guard house. Louie misses the noisy boys and resolves to join the Army again, but the recruitment officers refuse to enlist the old man.
    Frustrated by the boys' mischief, Frisbee runs through the rudiments of basic training with Colonel Hatfield, who has offered to be the guinea pig to set the example for the boys. Unable to complete even the simplest arms routine without offending the ranking officer, however, the five are thrown into the guard house again. An FBI officer visits Louie, requesting that he go to Washington to attend to important government business. Louie agrees to go and is asked to assist in flushing out enemy saboteurs at Army camps. Colonel Masters introduces a plan using the inventor of the hydrogen death ray as bait for the spies and reveals to the Pentagon officials that Louie is the ray's inventor. Advanced to major, Louie is immediately sent to Stockton to begin the assignment. Major Louie, using his new authority, has the boys assigned as his orderlies.
    No sooner does he tell them that only he knows the missing key to the hydrogen ray than his secretary, the sexy blonde undercover agent Marsha Levers, having eavesdropped on the conversation, rushes out to share the news with two other spies, the gentlemanly foreign-born Decker and Conroy, at their desert hideout. Hatfield warns Louie of the danger and Louie, distracted by his feared fate, hands cash to the boys to take five female officers out on the town. The boys are interrupted in their romantic adventure by Frisbee, who sends them off crawling, stumbling and weaving their way through an Army obstacle course. The five female officers are left waiting, incensed that they have been stood up by privates. Later that night the exhausted boys are assigned sentry duty and accidentally enable the two spies to take Louie at gunpoint.
    However, within minutes the boys realize the predicament when they remember Louie's last words, "routine 11," are a code for kidnapping. The boys jump in a jeep, drive off the grounds and stumble upon the spies's hideout and surprise them while they are trying to slap the formula out of Louie. Marsha arrives soon after and Sach, having been left alone guarding the captured spies, hands the gun to Marsha so he can join the others. When the boys return to the room, the spies threaten to pick them off one by one if Louie does not reveal the secret formula.
    After Louie calls out for a "routine 6," antics ensue and two vases come crashing down, knocking the spies out. Upon their heroic return to camp with spies in tow, the boys are awarded medals for acting way "beyond the call of duty." However, as the boys had to go AWOL in order to save Louie, Frisbee marches them straight back into the brig.

Slip becomes interested in communication with spirits when a spiritualist moves into his neighborhood and fleeces old woman of their money. Slip and the boys go out to expose this fake
    Upon returning to his sweet shop, Louie stumbles upon Sach and Whitey, who are holding a séance in the backroom. Louie lectures the Boys and kicks Whitey and his equipment out. Later that evening, Sach and Whitey, still wanting to contact spirits, attend an séance with Margo the medium. A 300 year-old pilgrim ghost named Edgar appears to the film audience, warning them that real ghosts are only sent to Earth for important matters, like revealing Margo' s quackery. Slip discovers that his mother's friend, Mrs. Parelli, is desperate to pay Madame Zola $100 to make her deceased son Frankie appear before her.
    Slip, determined to reveal the deception, convinces Louie to hold a séance and bring back the ghost of Louie's wealthy Uncle Jake. During the séance one of the boys appears in disguise as Uncle Jake and borrows $100. Later, after Slip has given the $100 to Mrs. Parelli, the inconsolable mother visits Zola, who calls up the ghost of her son. However, the boys break in and expose the hoax. Questioned by Slip, Zola reveals that she works for Margo. Slip then forces her to set up an appointment with Margo for Louie to contact Uncle Jake. Later at Margo's, Louie reluctantly enters alone to meet with the medium.
    As the rest of the boys look for another entrance, Edgar visits Sach and mysteriously opens a locked door for him. Sach soon discovers that only he can see and hear Edgar, when the boys return and call Sach insane because he is talking out loud to no one. While the boys case the house for evidence of Margo's hoax, Edgar leads Sach directly to the trick room, filled with paraphernalia to create the ghostly presences. Margo flips a hidden switch to start the record player but when the ghost voice on the album skips, Margo's henchman is sent to check the room. Sach escapes with the help of Edgar, who draws a chalk door on a wall and magically opens a real door into the next room.
    Finding the boys in the next room, Sach leads them into the trick room, where Margo's henchmen capture all but Sach. Once outside Sach and Edgar go in search of a phone and call for reinforcements. Meanwhile the henchmen drop the rest of the boys into a basement room that is quickly filling with water. In the séance room Margo receives hypnotists Professor Krantz and Dr. Siegfried and the professionals explain that hypnosis is a more secure method of manipulating her audience than her tricks. Soon after Sach and Edgar return and, with chalk in hand, Edgar opens a trap door in the basement room and frees the boys.
    The boys immediately enter the séance room, where Krantz hypnotizes them and Margo's henchmen carry them into the storage room. As Krantz explains that he can only hypnotize those with normal intelligence, Sach wakes up from the spell but keeps still until the Krantz and his cohorts leave. Meanwhile Louie's ditzy cashier, Cynthia, and ineffectual private eye Jack Eagen, having just arrived, join Louie and discover Sach and the boys. Using an old witches' chant Edgar has shared with him, Sach releases all but Slip from the spell. After Sach slaps stubborn Slip back to reality, the henchmen return to dispose of the boys but they mount a surprise attack and triumph.

The gang then decides to return home with their winnings and discontinue looking for the robbers. Later, when they arrive back in the Bowery, Red and Joe attempt to rob the gang again, just as Longnecker suddenly appears and introduces the gang to his girl friend Kitten.
    Suspicious of the two strangers, Longnecker prompts the men to fight and punches one of them out. The rest of the gang pummel the other robber, while Sach accidentally hits Longnecker, who lands in the gutter where a street cleaning machine soaks him with its spray. Later, the gang receive commendations for their bravery and then return to the recruiting office to explain the false mix-up.

Featuring: Leo Gorcey as Terence Aloysius 'Slip' Mahoney; Huntz Hall as Horace Debussy 'Sach' Jones; Ted de Corsia as Duke; Allen Jenkins as Weepin' Willie; Gloria Saunders as Terry Flynn; Tim Ryan as Flynn; William 'Billy' Benedict as Whitey (as William Benedict); Bernard Gorcey as Louis Xavier 'Louie' Dumbrowsky; David Gorcey as Chuck (as David Condon); Benny Bartlett as Butch (as Bennie Bartlett); Michael Ross as Swifty (as Mike Ross); Russell Hicks as Randall; Peggy Wynne as Mazie; Sam Balter as Announcer; Leo 'Ukie' Sherin as Groom
Louie is mad when the boys bring him a horse as repayment of a debt owed by stable owner Flynn. But Slip thinks the horse, 'My Girl', is a thoroughbred. The former owners of the horse, a bunch of gangsters want the horse back!
    Stable owner Flynn owes Louie $250, so the Boys offer to collect the old debt. At the stable, mild-mannered Flynn explains that business is bad and he cannot pay. Flynn prevails upon them to accept "my girl," as payment for the debt. Doc, who is responsible for the horse, has not paid room and board for My Girl in six months and it is Flynn's legal right to sell her. The boys accept the deal and Sach rides "My Girl" to the soda shop, where Louie is perturbed about the gang returning with a horse instead of money.
    At the riding club, gangster Weepin' Willie arrives to collect My Girl, so Flynn sends him to Louie's. At the racetrack Willie informs Duke, the horseracing racket leader, that Doc, his employee, took off with the board money and My Girl has been sold to Louie. Duke's plan is to replace Tarzana, who has just finished last in a race and has suffered a series of losses, with look-a-like horse My Girl, a sure bet at 20 to 1 odds. Duke, Willie and henchman Swifty go to the soda shop and offer $500 for the horse, but when Slip finds out that they are willing to pay up to $1,000, he concludes the horse is a "gimmick" in a racehorse racket and refuses to sell.
    Later that night Willie knocks at the sweet shop door and distracts Louie while Duke and Swifty exchange Tarzana for My Girl. Later at his office Duke calls J. T. Randal, whose large bet rides on the My Girl ruse, telling him the "trouble" has been straightened out. The gang takes the horse to Sunnybrook, and Terry and Flynn ascertain that, though she has the same markings, the horse is not My Girl. Back at the shop Louie tells the gang about Willie's suspicious behavior and Slip assumes the horses have been switched and decides to switch them back.
    When the gang brings Tarzana to the racetrack stables and are about to make the switch, a police officer approaches. Sach and Whitey distract him, but the horses switch places in the stall and Sach takes Tarzana by mistake. Back at Flynn's, the handkerchief trick fails again and Slip is furious and kicks Sach out of the gang. The gang then drives to the racetrack stables and makes the switch, returning later to the riding club, where Terry confirms that they have the correct horse. Slip decides to run My Girl in the same race as Tarzana, thinking she will win.
    Sach, unaware that the switch has already occurred, decides to make the switch himself. Wearing blackface, he takes My Girl to the racetrack stables and approaches the black groom who is walking Tarzana. While distracting him with antics, Sach switches the horses, bringing Tarzana back to the riding club. When the boys arrive back at the stable with Louie, Sach proudly announces his accomplishment, and Slip decides the only way to keep Sach out of trouble is to allow him back in the gang. That night the gang has secured the fee and the stall, but still need the right horse.
    Sach finds Willie, and following a plan devised by Slip, secretly admits that the gang switched horses, forcing Willie to go back to Duke and tell him they need to switch again. After dark, Duke, Willie and Swifty make the switch back. The next day My Girl wins the race in a photo finish with coaxing from her jockey, Sach. Duke tries to escape but he and Randal are caught by the police and are taken away.

Billingsley; Pierre Watkin as Morgan T. Stanhope; Robert Nichols as Harold Lane (as Bob Nichols); Paul Bryar as Coach Rowland
The boys are sent to Ivy University by two trustees to see what effect the boys will have on the student body. Sach develops a vitamin mixture that turns him into a star athlete
    At the Ivy University alumni club, Stanhope argues that only students with "blue blood" can succeed at the college, while Billingsley declares that any student who tries hard can thrive. Stanhope agrees to wager a new addition for the chemistry building on the dispute, providing he is allowed to choose the students.. Spotting the Boys in Louie's sweet shop, Stanhope announces that he has found his test subjects.
    When Stanhope and Billingsley enter and offer the boys tuition and a $1,500 bonus they accept in order to give the money to Louie to bring his brother Morris' family to America. On campus, Dean Forrester is appalled to learn that such poor specimens were chosen for their experiment, but he agrees to let the boys matriculate. All-American football star Biff Wallace, his pal Harold and their girl friends, Wayne and Wells, greet the boys with equal amounts of amusement and dismay. In the lab, Sach concocts a potion that gives him almost super-human strength. When he then joins the boys on the gym field, he shocks the coach with his ability and is named the new track and field star.
    Sach's subsequent status as campus idol angers Biff, especially after the boys join football practice and Sach easily flattens his competition. Sach, as "Hurricane Jones," leads the football team to a victorious season, which culminates in a match against rival, State. Crooked gambler Mike Donelli realizes that if he can remove Sach from the game at the last minute, he can make a fortune by betting on State. He sends his girl friend, Candy, to ask Biff to introduce her to Sach.
    Biff, hoping to regain some of his former glory, agrees, and Candy easily lures Sach to her apartment. There, Mike and his goon, Big Dave, knock out Sach and then drug him. The game begins, and although the school laments Sach's disappearance, Biff leads the team admirably. Unfortunately, Biff is injured toward the end of the game, and when Slip congratulates him, a guilt-stricken Biff confesses that Sach is being held at Candy's.
    The boys call the police and rush to the apartment, but although the gamblers are arrested, Sach cannot be awoken. Sach finally revives, but with no time left to mix up a new potion, the boys take to the football field without special powers. Luckily, Slip takes control and confuses State with a series of backfield maneuvers, allowing him to run down the field unnoticed. He almost fails to make the touchdown when he bangs his head on the goal post, but the other team shoves him over the line accidentally, and Ivy wins the pennant.

Slip is drafted into the Marines and the other boys get their notices soon after. On his first day Sach impersonates a cook and almost kills a Colonel. The boys get involved without a deadly gang of gamblers who are preying on other Marines.
    Slip is drafted into the Marines and in boot camp, discovers that the rest of the boys have been drafted too. Slip finds his Sach impersonating a doctor and examining Col. Brown. For this offense, the boys are put on K.P. duty, and there Sach, of course, messes up the soup. Sach is sent to Brown's office, but once there, the colonel receives word that Sach's soup can be used as a weapon.
    Brown congratulates Sach and, realizing that Sach's father was his drill sergeant and friend, promotes Sach to sergeant. Sach's new position immediately goes to his head. On a hike, Slip discovers Pvt. Hardy beaten unconscious and after calling an ambulance, picks up a playing card lying near the body. The next day, Sach procures five twelve-hour passes and takes the boys out on the town. On the street, he woos Lulu Mae, who takes them all to a gambling house run by Jolly Joe Johnson.
     Slip, realizing the tables are all rigged, notices that the blackjack cards match the design of Pvt. Hardy's card. After Sach loses all his money, the boys plot to have him demoted. Slip places a fake bomb in Sach's arms as he sleeps and when he wakes, he disrupts the entire camp screaming that the enemy has attacked. Capt. Miller chastises Sach but, when he throws the bomb out of the window, it explodes. As a result Sach is promoted to staff sergeant and awarded a medal.
    Pvt. Hardy dies and Slip visits the local sheriff and conjectures that Hardy was killed when he discovered Johnson's outfit was crooked. The sheriff, who is on Johnson's payroll, informs Johnson immediately and they decide that Slip must be quieted. Meanwhile, Slip and Sach also go to Brown, who puts two intelligence officers, Maj. Desmond and Capt. Harlow, on the case. Together, they all go to Johnson's to witness the crooked gambling but Johnson recognizes them and allows them to win.
    A dance is held next evening and Johnson sends Lulu Mae there to cause trouble for Sach. She sneaks into the barracks and hides in his bed, but when Brown hears a woman is in the camp and searches for her, she hides from him and then lets the boys into Johnson's closed gambling house. Slip searches the tables and discovers that each has a set of magnets underneath to move the chips and cards around. After they prove Johnson is corrupt, the boys are sent back to the camp. There, they discover that Brown has been replaced by a new colonel, who immediately demotes Sach to private and promotes Slip to sergeant.

Feudin' Fools - September 1952 63 minutes - Directed by William Beaudine
Featuring: Leo Gorcey as Terence Aloysius 'Slip' Mahoney; Huntz Hall as Horace Debussy 'Sach' Jones; Dorothy Ford as Tiny Smith; Lyle Talbot as Big Jim; Benny Baker as Corky; Anne Kimbell as Ellie Mae Smith; Oliver Blake as Clem Smith; Bernard Gorcey as Louie Dumbrowsky; David Gorcey as Chuck (as David Condon); Benny Bartlett as Butch (as Bennie Bartlett); Fuzzy Knight as Traps; Robert Easton as Caleb Smith; O.Z. Whitehead as Yancy Smith; Paul Wexler as Luke Smith; Russell Simpson as Grandpa Smith
Sach inherits a farm in Hog Liver Hollow, Kentucky. On their first day in the country the boys learn that the 'Jones' family is mortal enemies with their neighbor 'The Smiths'. Bank robbers end up at the Jones Ranch and the fun begins.
    A pair of private detectives comes looking for Sach to award him his inheritance: a southern "plantation" left to him by a long-lost uncle. The boys hop into their jalopy and head to Hog Liver Holler, where old hunter Traps leads them to the "plantation," which in reality is a ramshackle cabin. Traps then reveals that all of the Joneses have been killed by the Smiths during a long-standing family feud. Just then, the hillbilly Smith brothers--Clem, Luke, Caleb and Yancy--begin shooting at the boys, but soon stop, unable to discern which one is the Jones they seek to hit.
     The boys scramble inside to hide under a table, after which Slip volunteers Sach to patrol outside and orders the others to clean the cabin. Outside, Sach immediately runs into two of the Smiths and flees back into the house, where he sees each Smith brother framed in a windowpane and mistakes them for family portraits. Upon further exploration of the house, the boys discover a bootlegger's still containing potent whiskey. The Smiths continue to shoot into the house and, after refusing to accept a surrender, come inside, demanding to know which boy is a Jones.
     Slip lies that they are just city boys on a hunting vacation, after which the suspicious Clem coerces them into coming for dinner, reasoning in secret that the real Jones will expose himself by eating greedily, as do all Joneses. Later, the boys set out for the Smiths', but are stopped by pretty Smith sister Ellie Mae, who informs them of Clem's plan to trap them. She also introduces her other sister, the oversized Tiny, who takes an immediate liking to Sach. At dinner, the boys take small portions and eat fastidiously until the Smiths begin playing with their rifles, at which point Ellie Mae hurries the boys outside to protect them.
     There, Sach tries to impress the women by milking a cow directly into a bottle and procuring chocolate milk from a brown cow. The next day, Sach and Slip ask local banker Thompson for a loan to renovate the farm, but Thompson refuses to give them money without collateral. Meanwhile, Louie travels to the Holler to join the boys, but is captured by the Smiths, who believe he is a revenuer. Ellie Mae informs the boys of Louie's predicament, spurring them to rush to the Smiths' and rescue their friend.
     Soon after, gangsters Big Jim, Pinky and Corky rob Thompson's bank, and when Jim is shot in the arm, they are forced to seek refuge in Sach's cabin. Although the gangsters claim to be hunters, Slip has heard about the robbery on the radio and deduces their real identity. Hoping to stall for time, he pretends that Louie is a doctor who can remove the bullet from Jim's arm. Louie tries gamely to act like a doctor, but when he attempts to use the whiskey as an anesthetic, it burns a hole through Corky's shoe.
     Sach soon discovers the robbers' bag of money and, after Corky catches him trying to steal it, reasons aloud that the men are robbers, after which they hold the boys at gunpoint. Meanwhile, Ellie Mae walks over to the cabin, followed, unknown to her, by Clem. When she enters, Corky grabs her, but Slip sees Clem and loudly identifies each robber as "Jones," prompting Clem to call for his brothers and begin a shootout. While the gangsters are busy shooting, the boys knock them out one by one.
     The Smiths then force their way into the house, but when Slip explains that they have helped capture the bank robbers, they are proud to be on the right side of the law. The thieves are arrested, and the next day, Ellie Mae compels her brothers to dress up and apologize to the boys. At the cabin, they are joined by Thompson, who offers a bank loan as a reward for capturing the thieves. When Slip insists on signing for the loan, however, claiming that he is the "Mr. Jones" of the outfit, the Smiths draw their guns and chase him into the hills.

Sach's cranium hardens bizarrely so that it can withstand any pain. Slip enters him into wrestling matches but the power begins to move to other parts of his body like his elbow, finger etc.
    The Boys are in Louie's sweet shop when Louie is held up at gunpoint by a robber. Sach leaps to Louie's defense, and shocks everyone by barely noticing when the robber hits him repeatedly on the head with his gun. After the confused robber flees, Slip investigates further, only to be knocked out by Sach's head.
    A doctor confirms that Sach's skull has solidified until it is impervious to injury, but warns the boys that the superhuman power will probably not last long. Soon after, Slip sees a poster announcing that anyone who can beat wrestler Hombre Montana can win $1,000, and realizes that this is a way to put Sach's newly discovered power to work for them. The boys attend Hombre's next match, and after Slip secretly enters Sach into the competition, Sach attempts to escape but it is held inside the ring by the fight coordinators. Forced to defend himself against the huge wrestler, Sach takes Slip's advice to use his head, and knocks Hombre out with his skull. He then passes out, but the boys rouse him in the locker room.
    There, Hombre's crooked manager, Pete Taylor, arrives to offer Slip $5,000 to manage Sach, but Slip is certain Sach is worth more, and so refuses. Instead, Slip uses the award money to set up a "training camp" for Sach in the back of Louie's shop, and hires trainer Mike DeMora. Slip then arranges for Sach, now called "Hammerhead Jones," to fight "Brother" Frank Jares, but just before the match, they discover that Sach's skull is back to normal. The boys are crushed until Sach flicks Slip with his finger and, when Slip falls to the ground, realizes that the power has moved to his hands. Newly renamed "Steel-Fingers Jones," Sach wins the match easily.
    He then prepares to fight Ted Christy, and although the boys are concerned when Sach's fingers lose their strength, after he elbows Slip in the stomach, Slip confirms that the power is now in Sach's elbow. He wins the next fight and is promptly tagged "Iron-Elbow Jones." In the heavyweight championship match, the power travels to Sach's toes, earning him the nickname "Terrible Toes Jones" and the championship belt. Taylor, frustrated at Sach's success, attempts to arrange a new match between him and Hombre. When Slip refuses the request, Taylor has Sach's next scheduled opponent killed and substitutes Hombre. Next, Taylor sends his girl friend, Rhonda Nelson, to seduce Slip into revealing where Sach's secret power is now.
    To that end, Rhonda invites the boys to a party at her penthouse, where she leads Slip onto the porch for a private conversation. Meanwhile, Sach, while trying to evade an amorous admirer, inadvertently discovers Taylor hidden in a back room, and rushes to inform Slip of their imminent jeopardy. Taylor sends his goons after Sach, forcing Sach to disguise himself as a waiter. After finally managing to alert Slip to the danger, Sach hides his buddy under a serving cart and barely sneaks him out the front door. Desperate to discern Sach's power and allow Hombre to win the boxing match, Taylor has his men capture Slip and Sach, but, unable to find an area of Sach's body that isn't weak and flabby, they let the boys go. Slip and Sach join their pals in the locker room just before the fight, the proceeds from which go to the milk fund charity.
    Although Sach is terrified of Hombre, Slip convinces him to fight "for the orphans," and Slip enters the ring. Just before the match, Slip pats Sach on the behind and realizes his power has been transferred there. Although Sach is too busy running from Hombre to hear Slip's advice, he finally bends over the ropes to talk to his coach, and Hombre knocks himself out on Sach's rear end. As Sach is declared the winner, he warns Slip they will need to be careful when choosing his new nickname.

Jalopy - February 1953 62 minutes - Directed by William Beaudine
Featuring: Leo Gorcey as Terrence Aloysius 'Slip' Mahoney; Huntz Hall as Horace Debussy 'Sach' Jones; Bernard Gorcey as Louie Dumbrowsky; Robert Lowery as Skid Wilson (as Bob Lowry); Leon Belasco as Prof. Bosgood Elrod; Richard Benedict as Tony Lango; Jane Easton as Bobbie Lane; Murray Alper as Red Baker; David Gorcey as Chuck (as David Condon); Benny Bartlett as Butch (as Bennie Bartlett); Tom Hanlon as Race Announcer; Mona Knox as 'Invented' Girl
Slip enters the boys jalopy in an auto race hoping to pay off Louies bills but comes in last. Sach develops a super fuel and the competition will do everything to get the formula
    Race car owner Skid Wilson urges driver Tony Lango and mechanic Red Baker to keep his racing "jalopy" in prime condition because he has been raking in money by winning at the track. Skid is curious when he reads that a new car has entered the race as the "Mahoney Meteor," and that the owner is listed as Terrence Aloysius Mahoney. Skid sends his girl friend, Bobbie Lane, to learn more. Meanwhile, Slip and the Boys are testing the broken-down jalopy in their Bowery neighborhood. Louie begs them to move their noisy work elsewhere because it is ruining his business, but Slip reminds him that he will pay Louie's rent if he wins the jalopy derby.
    In the back of Louie's store, Sach, while helping Professor Elrod Bosgood with an experiment, concocts a liquid that explodes when dropped on the floor. When Bobbie emerges from the smoke, the boys conclude that the formula makes women magically appear. Bobbie flirts with Slip and takes an interest in his car, so he gives her a pass to the next day's race. The Mahoney Meteor is so slow during the race that the other cars pass it repeatedly, until it boils over and Slip crashes the car into a wall. Sach attempts to help his friend but ends up chasing his hat all over the race track instead, which causes a massive pile-up.
    Later, the boys sulk over their loss at Louie's. Slip puts Sach to work waxing the floor while he tries to talk Louie into fronting them money to fix the jalopy and enter the next big race. Sach, meanwhile, puts some of his secret formula into the waxing machine and it literally flies through the window and into the sky. This inspires Slip to use the liquid in the gas tank of the jalopy, and in a test drive the car completes the track circuit in an astonishing eleven seconds. Having observed the test drive, Skid and his friends try to extract information from the boys, and Sach mistakenly reveals that he put a special additive into the gas tank. Slip and Sach report the good news to the Professor and get to work mixing up a new batch of the liquid. When Sach throws some on the floor, Bobbie reappears with an invitation to Skid's pre-race party.
    Once the group arrives at the party, Skid sends Tony and Red to search their laboratory for the secret formula. After Tony and Red fail to find the formula, Skid takes the boys and Louie hostage in another room. Sach purposely drops some of the formula and he and his friends escape in the smoke. When they return to the lab they mix up another batch but are soon assaulted by Skid and his thugs, and a fistfight ensues. After Louie calls the police, Skid, Red and Tony seem to disappear. Once the police leave, the thugs return and are only satisfied when Sach's new formula proves ineffective. Sach later realizes he left out a crucial element of the formula: seltzer water. On the day of the big race, Skid is confident that Slip will lose. Once the race begins, Slip's jalopy putters around the track until Sach arrives.
    After pouring the liquid into the gas tank, the car's speed accelerates, but this time, in reverse. With Sach clinging to the side, Slip outraces the other cars by driving around the track in the proper direction with the car in reverse. When Slip wins the race, Skid tells Bobbie she will have to return her new fur coat. At a celebration at Louie's shop, Sach purposely spills some liquid after which a beautiful woman appears and leaves with Slip. Sach pours some more to create his own dream girl, but a bespectacled woman for the Professor appears instead. After Sach follows them out the door of the shop, Louie tries to create his own woman, but bursts into tears when nothing happens.

Loose In London - May 1953 62 minutes - Directed by Edward Bernds
Featuring: Leo Gorcey as Terence Aloysius 'Slip' Mahoney; Huntz Hall as Horace Debussy 'Sach' Jones; Bernard Gorcey as Louie Dumbrowsky; Angela Greene as Lady Marcia; Walter Kingsford as Earl of Walsingham; Norma Varden as Aunt Agatha; John Dodsworth as Sir Edgar Whipsnade; William Cottrell as Reggie; David Gorcey as Chuck Anderson; Benny Bartlett as Butch Williams; Rex Evans as Herbert; James Logan as Hoskins the Butler; Alex Frazer as J. Allison Higby - Solicitor; Charles Keane as Bly; Clyde Cook as English Cabbie
Lawyers determine that Sach is a relative of a rich dying British Earl. The boys head to jolly old London and end up rescuing the Earl from the other relatives who want him dead.
    Lawyer J. Ellison Higby gives Sach a letter in which he is identified as a potential heir to the estate of Sir Percy, Earl of Walsingham in England. The letter includes a first-class ticket for Sach to travel on a luxury steamship. Slip believes that Sach will need the support of his friends in England, and proposes trading in the ticket for four lower-class tickets for himself and the Boys. When Louie attends a farewell party in the Boys' cabin and is accidentally locked in the closet, the ship leaves port with Louie as an unwitting stowaway.
    After witnessing the captain's cruel treatment of another stowaway, the boys keep Louie's presence a secret, and Slip orders Sach to spend the remainder of the trip in a steamer trunk so that it will appear there are only four residents in their cabin. Upon arriving in London, Sach proves it was time well spent, by impressing his friends with his copious knowledge of London history, learned from reading a guidebook while he was trapped in the trunk. At Walsingham Castle, meanwhile, Sach's fellow heirs, Sir Edgar Whipsnade, Lady Agatha, Sir Reggie, Sir Herbert and Lady Marcia, are plotting to rid themselves of Sach, whom they perceive as yet another competitor for Sir Percy's fortune.
    Sir Percy, however, warmly greets the Americans upon their arrival. Confined to a wheelchair, Sir Percy believes he is dying and announces that he hopes to get to know all his potential heirs and thereby make a fair division of his estate. The Britons hope that Sach's uncouth American manners will soon put him out of Sir Percy's favor, but Sach's good nature impresses and invigorates the elderly man. The British heirs then plot to kill Sach after he convinces Sir Percy to discontinue taking his medicine and to eat for pleasure. Both Sach and Sir Percy are unaware that the medicine is actually making him ill, as his relatives had planned, rather than making him well.
    Working in collusion with the heirs, the butler Hoskins leads Sach and Slip to their rooms, and then frightens them with ghost stories. That night, Sach's fears are realized when a hooded figure with a hatchet attempts to kill him. After Sach is knocked unconscious by a helmet he had positioned over the bedroom door to stop an intruder, the hooded figure, actually Herbert in disguise, escapes. The next morning, Sach appears to have been invigorated by his deep sleep. Sir Percy's health continues to improve, and, no longer needing the wheelchair, he hosts a party to introduce his American guests. The next day, Sir Percy thanks Sach for his kindness and informs him of his plan to correct a two-hundred-year old injustice wrought by Sir Percy's ancestor, Sir Charles, against Sach's ancestor. Sir Percy recalls that the event occurred in the same chamber in which they now stand: Sir Charles had accused Sir Horace Debussy Jones and his friends of passing worthless I.O.U.s at an inn, and banished them to Manhattan in New Amsterdam. T
    he friends were angry that they were being exiled to the colonies but were powerless against Sir Charles. Having recounted the story, Sir Percy now appoints Sach as his principal heir. Sach goes to tell his friends the good news but is distracted by Marcia, who seduces him into revealing his secret. Marcia and the other heirs then decide to kill Sir Percy before he can alter his current will. Slip, meanwhile, realizes that Sach's indiscretion has put Sir Percy in danger, and so the friends split up to search for the earl, who has disappeared. Unable to locate Sir Percy, Herbert and Reggie attempt to kill Sach, but he eludes them and stumbles into a torture chamber.
    Several more attempts are made on Sach's life until someone mysteriously knocks out both Reggie and Herbert. After Edgar appears and holds Sach and Slip, who has come to help his friend, at gunpoint, the mysterious assailant emerges and is revealed to be Sir Percy. Hoskins enters the dungeon and asks Edgar's permission to shoot the men, but when he is given the gun, he proves his loyalty to Sir Percy by turning the weapon on Edgar, Herbert and Reggie. A swordfight erupts between the men while upstairs, Marcia and Agatha lock Butch and Chuck in a room.
    Detective Ames of Scotland Yard arrives with the police, having been summoned earlier by Hoskins, and they arrest the women and free Butch and Chuck, who then lead them to the dungeon. There they find that Edgar, Herbert and Reggie are securely locked up in the stocks, and that everyone else is safe. Lawyer Higby arrives unexpectedly and announces that he mistakenly identified Sach as Sir Percy's relative, but that the true heir lives in Australia. As if this news was not painful enough, Sach is accidentally knocked unconscious by several cannonballs that slip out of their mounts. Sir Percy later congratulates a bandaged Sach for maintaining his dignity in the face of the bad news. When Sach expresses his regret that he never got to go on a fox hunt, Sir Percy informs him that there have been no foxes in the area for hundreds of years. Moments later, a fox chased by beagles runs through the room and both Sach and Sir Percy heed the call of the hunt.

Slip and Sach go to the Air Force headquarters to visit their pal Dave Moreno who is being held for treason. The boys end up in the Air Force and help uncover spies.
    Sach pretends he is an aviator while aboard a mounted children's airplane ride in Louie's sweet shop. When Slip makes fun of him, Sach proudly displays his paperwork for a flying school correspondence course. While they are talking, former neighbor Dave Moreno, now a captain with the U.S. Air Force, arrives for a visit. Dave reveals that he works as a researcher on a secret rocket project. The next day, the Boys read that Dave has been arrested as a spy by the Federal Bureau of Investigation for selling military secrets. Convinced of Dave's innocence, Sach and Slip try to visit him at the Allen Air Force base and unwittingly complete recruitment papers. Despite numerous lengthy tests, Sach and Slip do not comprehend their error until they are inducted into the Air Force. The commanding officer, Col. Davenport, then assigns them to ground crew school. When Sach is mistakenly assigned to sleep in the barracks of the Women's Air Force, female Sgt. Anderson attempts to have him reassigned. Sach must stay, however, as the officer who signed his orders is unavailable.
    Sach is given sleeping quarters in the laundry room, which he disrupts due to his clumsiness and must then spend the night re-washing the laundry. Slip, meanwhile, runs afoul of his barracks sergeant, Brodsky, who is accidentally knocked out by a fire extinguisher because of Slip's antics. The next day, Slip and Sach attempt to visit Dave but are refused entry because they do not have a pass. They then go to the Post Exchange store and are surprised to see Louie, Chuck and Butch, who have come to visit. When waitress Dorene Thompson overhears their conversation about Dave, she privately convinces Sach to bring her news of him as he is her friend. That night, Sach causes pandemonium in the women's barracks when he sneaks in to find Slip. Sach and Slip sneak out when the lights are doused and climb a ladder up to Dave's quarters to free their friend.
    However, Dave refuses to attempt an escape, and Sach and Slip are arrested by military police. Unknown to them, Dave is released and secretly meets with Davenport and FBI agents, with whom he is working undercover to expose a spy network. Dave agrees to continue to work to foil the spies, and Davenport agrees to release the unsuspecting Slip and Sach as well. Dorene, who is working with the spies, learns that Dave is out of prison and orders her cohorts to contact him at a public air show at the base. That day, Sach and Slip mistake two men tailing Dave for thugs. They assault the men and trap them in the supply barracks, unaware that they are actually FBI agents following Dave for his own safety. The boys then follow Dave themselves, and when he is kidnapped by Dorene and her cohorts, they send Butch, Chuck and Louie to get help.
    Sach, who received his airman's certificate while in jail, then convinces Slip to join him aboard a plane in order to follow the spies. He is unaware, however, that the plane is being radio-controlled and is featured in the air show. After the plane takes off, it is shot at by Air Force fighter planes as part of a demonstration. A terrified Sach consults his flight manual, but each chapter is titled "How to Face Death in the Air." He finally locates operating instructions and regains control of the plane, much to the surprise of the radio operator on the ground. Sach manages to land safely in a field, which coincidentally, is near a farmhouse where Dave is being tortured to reveal military secrets. Sach and Slip burst into the house and assault the spies, whom they subdue after a lengthy fight.
    When Dorene attempts to hold them at gunpoint, Sach pulls a rug out from underneath her and she, too, is taken hostage. Davenport, who had been alerted by Chuck and Butch, arrives shortly afterward to find that Slip has injected the spies with truth serum they intended to use on Dave. The spies are arrested following their confessions, and Davenport congratulates Sach on his excellent flying skills. After Sach accidentally sits on the truth serum syringe, he admits his flying skills were nothing but dumb luck.

Featuring: Leo Gorcey as Terrence Aloysius 'Slip' Mahoney; Huntz Hall as Horace Debussy 'Sach' Jones; Bernard Gorcey as Louie Dumbrowsky; Robert Osterloh as Prof. Damon; Joyce Holden as Myra Hagen; William 'Bill' Phillips as Soapy the Safecracker (as William Phillips); Rudy Lee as Herbie; William Forrest as John Graham; Chick Chandler as Eddie the Detective; David Gorcey as Chuck (as David Condon); Benny Bartlett as Butch (as Bennie Bartlett); Lou Lubin as Oskar; Tim Ryan as Andy the Cop; Peter Mamakos as Chico; Edith Leslie as Aggie the Nurse
After being punched in the nose by 10 year old Herbie, Sach develops mind reading capabilities. The boys open up a detective agency and their first case involves a beautiful blonde and of course, gangsters.
    Slip and Sach run the Bowery Boys Club, an athletic club for local children, in the back of Louie's sweet shop. When Sach recovers from a knockout by little Herbie while they are sparring, he discovers that he can read minds. Shortly after, Louie's friend Eddie asks him to buy his detective agency for two hundred dollars. Slip believes that Sach's new ability could be a goldmine for a detective agency, and encourages Louie to buy the business. Slip is chagrined, however, when the first telephone call at their new business is from the landlord demanding five months' worth of unpaid rent. Not long after, Myra Hagen, wearing a luxurious fur coat, rushes into the office claiming that someone is trying to kill her. She gives Slip an envelope that contains information for the district attorney in the event of her death.
    Sach places the envelope in their safe, unwittingly enclosing the safe's combination as well. Sach then hides under the desk when a shadowy figure appears outside the office door. Slip runs into the corridor to investigate but finds no one, and returns to discover that Myra has also disappeared. On the street, Myra is taken hostage in her car by a man with a gun. When a policeman stops by the detective agency, he examines the fur coat that Myra left behind and determines that it is one of many valuable fur coats stolen the night before. Myra is taken to a health farm where Prof. Damon operates a theft ring that alters stolen coats from around the country for resale. Myra, who has been part of the racket but now wants to get out, warns Damon about her incriminating letter. At the detective agency, Slip tells John Graham, who claims to represent the insurance company investigating the fur coat thefts, about the letter. Slip wants the reward Graham offers for the letter but cannot open the safe to get it out.
    Slip later berates Sach for locking the combination in the safe, and Sach attempts to correct it by blowing up the safe with gunpowder. Although Sach is unharmed, the explosion causes him to lose his psychic powers and the envelope still is not found. Myra telephones them and, under duress from Damon, asks them to return the envelope. Two of Damon's thugs arrive to retrieve the letter, but because the boys are unable to find it, the thugs kidnap Herbie, who had been brought to the office to restore Sach's powers. Karl, a dim-witted thug working for Damon who is fond of Myra, tells her about Damon's plans to kill her and Herbie. Myra takes Karl's keys and finds Herbie, who then telephones to tell Slip that he and Myra are being held at the sanitarium.
    Having finally found the envelope, Slip and Sach go to the sanitarium disguised as a doctor and his elderly female patient. After nurse Aggie takes the feminized Sach to his room, he and Slip search for Herbie. Sach encounters Graham, who is the ringleader of the racket, and after revealing his identity, gives Graham the envelope in hopes of receiving the reward. Graham tells him to wait, but then sends his thugs after Sach. Sach eludes them with Slip's help, and they then disperse in separate directions. Slip soon finds Myra and Herbie but when the door opens, Herbie strikes Sach, anticipating a thug.
    The blow restores Sach's psychic powers. After a brawl during which all of the thugs are trapped in a boiling vat, Herbie grabs the envelope from Graham and returns it to Slip. Much later, the Bowery Boys Club celebrates its grand opening in a new location. Sach explains to a party guest that he and Slip used the reward money to open the improved club to keep kids out of trouble. However, several boys get into a food fight and Slip, Sach and Louie are hit in the face with pies.

Clarke as Jacques Gambon; Alphonse Martell as Pierre, Butler; Fritz Feld as Marcel, Maitre d'
French Professors mistake Sach for a missing world renowned French scientist who is developing a secret fuel formula, Professor Le Beau. The boys agree to allow Sach to impersonate Le Beau. They head to Paris to assist the Professors in locating the missing Professor only once again to get involved with spies who want the secret formula.
    Professor Maurice Gaston Le Beau is missing, but a member of the Scientific Section of the UN General Intelligence Agency his colleagues that he has seen the professor in a sweet shop on the Bowery. They all go immediately to Louie's sweet shop, where they find Sach, the professor's look-a-like, and show Slip a newspaper clipping, with a photograph, reporting Le Beau's disappearance in Paris. Le Beau, who has been working on a formula for a new rocket fuel, has had several attempts made on his life by foreign agents who want his formula.
    Consequently, the scientists decide to ask Sach to impersonate Le Beau in the hope that they can force the agents out into the open and allow Le Beau to come out of hiding to resume his research. After the scientists persuade Slip and Sach to accompany them to Paris, Louie decides to go along as well. Soon after, newspaper headlines announce that Le Beau has been found and is suffering from amnesia. On the flight to Paris, Slip fills Sach in on some of the details of Le Beau's life, including the fact that he is engaged to Mimi Du Bois. Meanwhile, in Paris, Mimi informs her friends that Le Beau's physician, Dr. Gaspard, feels that her fiancé can be cured of his amnesia.
    Unknown to Mimi, Gaspard is in league with a crook named Vidal, who represents a group of agents seeking the formula. When Sach, Slip and Louie arrive in Paris, Mimi and Gaspard accept Sach as Le Beau and indulge his frequently bizarre behavior. Although Gaspard persuades "Le Beau" to restart work in the laboratory, Mimi protests that Gaspard has failed to restore her fiancé's memory and insists that she be given a chance. Mimi then tells "Le Beau" that they will marry during the next week and leave on a honeymoon. After a thug enters the house and throws a knife at him, Sach decides he wants to go home, but Slip convinces him that they are serving both the United States and France by staying.
    Meanwhile, the real Le Beau, who is cavorting with several maidens on a tropical island, sees a newspaper story about Sach and Mimi together in Paris. Later, when Le Beau returns in a jealous rage and discovers Louie in his house, he orders him to leave. Louie assumes that Le Beau is Sach, gone mad, and is further bewildered when Sach appears and asks him why he is leaving. Confusion reigns as Le Beau and Mimi reunite and he asks her to leave immediately to get married. Slip, too, does not realize that Le Beau has returned. Eventually, Le Beau and Sach meet and Le Beau chases Sach with a sword.
    When Sach hides, Le Beau starts a sword fight with Slip, whom he regards as another intruder in his house, but Slip locks him in a closet. The confusion is compounded when Gaspard, Vidal and two thugs arrive and demand the formula for the rocket fuel. After Sach dictates a totally arbitrary concoction of ingredients to Slip, Gaspard and Vidal insist that Sach prove that the formula works. Sach then prepares the fuel and puts the mix in a model rocket. Meanwhile, Mimi has freed Le Beau and the thugs bring him to the lab just as Sach lights the fuse on the rocket.
    To everyone's surprise, the rocket takes off and flies around the lab until it crashes and explodes, wrecking the lab and incapacitating the crooks. Later, the French government awards Sach the Legion of Honor for his accidental discovery, while Mimi consoles the disconsolate Le Beau, who had spent years trying to achieve the same result.

Slip and Sach think the empty lot owned by the Graves family would be ideal for the neighborhood kids to play baseball. They head to the spooky mansion to talk to the Graves only to get involved with mad scientists, monsters, robots, vampires and man eating trees.
    After some children playing ball in the street break a window of Louie's sweet shop, Slip and Sach decide to rent a nearby vacant lot in which the children can play. The property is owned by the Gravesends, who invite the Boys to their mansion to discuss the arrangement. Unknown to Slip and Sach, the family - - two brothers, Derek and Anton, sister Amelia and niece Francine - - are all quite mad. Derek requires a human brain to transplant into his gorilla, Cosmos, while Anton needs a head for his robot Gorog. Amelia seeks food for her man-eating tree and Francine, a vampire, is always on the lookout for new blood.
    All the Gravesends consider that Slip and Sach qualify as donors for their particular experiments, prompting Derek to invite them to stay the night, stating that he will discuss the rental of the lot with his lawyer in the morning. After Grissom, the butler, is temporarily transformed into a monster when he drinks a potion Anton has created, Derek prepares Cosmos to receive Sach's brain. While demonstrating to Derek that he can control Gorog by sending the robot directions over a microphone, Anton accidentally sends the robot to kill Sach in the guest bedroom. Luckily for Sach, Anton rescinds the order before Gorog can do any damage.
    Meanwhile, Louie, becoming concerned that Slip and Sach have not returned, sets off with Chuck and Butch to find them. In the morning, at gunpoint, Derek informs Slip and Sach that due to the operations they are about to undergo, they will be the forerunners of a new, happy race, unburdened by intelligence. Alerted that Louie and the others are at the front door, Derek locks Slip and Sach in a closet, from which they attempt to escape by breaking through the wall, but discover that Cosmos' cage is on the other side. After Derek takes Louie and the others prisoner, he and Anton prepare Slip and Sach for their respective operations.
    Cosmos gets loose, however, and knocks out Grissom and Anton, then frees Slip who inadvertently activates Gorog, telling it to attack Cosmos. Slip then tries to escape, but is cornered by Amelia who wants to feed him to her tree. Slip is then freed by Francine so that he can become a blood donor. Sach escapes only to be chased by both Cosmos and Gorog and is eventually caught by Grissom, who takes him to the laboratory where Derek and Anton fight over who will use Sach in their transplant. Meanwhile, Slip has found Louie and the others and gains control of Gorog, sending it to attack Grissom and the brothers.
    After Anton destroys the robot's controlling mechanism, they recapture Sach, who drinks some of Anton's potion, turns into a monster and defeats them all. The effects of the potion wear off just as Sach is about to strangle Slip. Slip then secures Derek's signature for the use of the lot. However, back in the Bowery, Louie's windows continue to be broken, thanks to the addition to the team of a powerful home-run hitter, Gorog.

Jungle Gents - September 1954 64 minutes - Directed by Edward Bernds
Featuring: Leo Gorcey as 'Slip' Mahoney; Huntz Hall as 'Sach' Jones; Bernard Gorcey as Louie Dumbrowsky; Laurette Luez as Anatta; Patrick O'Moore as Alfie Grimshaw; Rudolph Anders as Dr. Goebel; Harry Cording as Dan Shanks; David Gorcey as Chuck (as David Condon); Benny Bartlett as Butch (as Bennie Bartlett)
Sach has the ability to smell diamonds because of his sinus medicine. The boys go to Africa to locate diamonds and get mixed up with criminals and cannibals. Sach falls in love with 'Jane' only to eventually meet 'Tarzan'.
    In Louie's Sweet Shop, Sach assists a police officer in recovering a bag of stolen diamonds by sniffing them out, then realizes that his sense of smell has been heightened by new antibiotic pills he is taking for a sinus condition. The owner of the diamonds, Alf Grimshaw, tells Sach and his pal Slip that they can become rich by using Sach's olfactory talent to recover a horde of lost diamonds in Africa. Grimshaw, Sach, Slip, and Louie, Chuck and Butch then journey to Africa or, as Slip calls it, "The Dark Condiment." They meet Grimshaw's partner, the ailing Holmes, at his trading post where he explains how another of their partners had found the diamonds, but was killed before he could tell Holmes where they were hidden. Before Holmes became ill, he and Grimshaw had searched the area, but had only been able to establish that the diamonds were hidden in a complex of caves.
    Dr. Goebel, Holmes' physician, is present when Holmes gives Sach a map of the route to the caves and warns him to guard it with his life. Later, Goebel and his crooked confederate, Shanks, decide to follow the expedition to the caves and steal the diamonds. The group sets off and on their first night in the jungle decides to build several fires to ward off lions. After Sach inadvertently uses the map to start his fire, he conceals the fact that it is been destroyed and instead leads them aimlessly in circles. Goebel, Shanks and their bearers are also following the same bewildering trail. After days of wandering, Sach admits that the map is gone and that the paper he has been consulting is actually a mail-order girdle advertisement. The contrite Sach threatens to commit suicide, but changes his mind and is relegated to the rear of the group.
    As they stumble on through the jungle, a lion threatens Sach who is then rescued by Anatta, a curvaceous jungle woman who becomes enamored of him. When the others return to find Sach, Anatta runs away, and after the bearers see the dead lion, they assume that Sach killed it and proclaim him a great white hunter. Meanwhile, Goebel and Shanks visit Omotawa, a native chief, and arrange that he will kill all the strangers, except the one with the big nose. After the chief takes the boys prisoner, Goebel informs them that he and Sach will go diamond hunting the next morning while Slip and the others are turned into shrunken heads.
    Slip realizes that the only way they can escape their predicament is by disabling Sach's sense of smell, so they ensure that he catches a cold. The next morning, as Sach sneezes, Slip informs Goebel and Shanks that Sach cannot smell anything. Goebel and Shanks then take Sach to their hut where Rangori, the masked witch doctor, tries to cure his cold. Soon after, Anatta appears and knocks Rangori out, after which Sach dons Rangori's mask and robes and frees the others. After Sach recovers from his cold, Grimshaw convinces Anatta to take them to the caves, which are reputed to be haunted by a faceless ghost. Inside one of the caves, Sach and Slip collide, disabling Sach's nose when they hit their heads together. Sach accidentally finds the horde of diamonds, however, when he is chased by the ghost.
    Goebel and Shanks arrive and hold the group at gunpoint until the ghost reappears, enabling the boys to overpower them. The ghost is revealed to be Holmes, who has been tracking Goebel and Shanks, after having discovered that they had killed his partner. Later, as Slip, Louie, Chuck and Butch prepare to leave on a boat, they wave goodbye to Grimshaw, Holmes and Sach, who has donned a loincloth and decided to stay with Anatta. When Anatta's boyfriend, who looks like Tarzan, shows up, Sach runs off to join the others on their trip back to the Bowery.

Bowery To Bagdad - January 1955 64 minutes - Directed by dward Bernds
Featuring: Leo Gorcey as Terence Aloysius 'Slip' Mahoney; Huntz Hall as Horace Debussy 'Sach' Jones; Bernard Gorcey as Louie Dumbrowsky; Joan Shawlee as Velma 'Cindy Lou' Calhoun; Eric Blore as Genie of the Lamp; Jean Willes as Claire Culpepper; Robert Bice as Duke Dolan; Dick Wessel as Gus (as Richard Wessel); Michael Ross as Tiny; Rayford Barnes as Canarsie; Rick Vallin as Selim; Paul Marion as Abdul; David Gorcey as Chuck (as David Condon); Benny Bartlett as Butch (as Bennie Bartlett)
The story of Aladdin's lamp begins in the Middle Ages where the lamp is stolen. Hundreds of years later it ends up in the Bowery and in the hands of the boys.
    During the reign of Hamud, the Caliph of Bagdad, after Aladdin's lamp is stolen, Hamud orders his men to return it to him at any cost. The lamp is not recovered during Hamud's lifetime but because his orders are sacred, future generations of his retainers continue the search until finally, in the 1950s, Selim and Abdul travel to the Bowery in New York City. Meanwhile, Sach buys the lamp at a junk shop and intends to give it to his pal Louie. When Sach shows his treasure to Slip, Chuck and Butch, Slip ridicules him for wasting his money.
    While they are squabbling, Tiny and Canarsie, henchmen of racketeer Duke Dolan, arrive to pressure Louie to surrender his lease to the shop, but Louie adamantly refuses. In the shop's back room, Sach grumbles about his lack of courage and Slip's constant nagging, then, when he polishes the lamp, is amazed by the sudden appearance of the wish-granting genie of the lamp. The genie is equally amazed by Sach's stupidity, but nonetheless grants his wish for six malteds. While Sach enjoys his treats, the entire affair is witnessed by Tiny, who rushes to Duke's penthouse to tell him about the magical occurrence.
    Duke's third hood, Gus, has recently read about the lamp and convinces Duke that it is worth pursuing, so Duke sends Tiny and Canarsie to steal it. Meanwhile, Sach tells Slip about his discovery, but Slip does not believe him until Sach makes the genie appear again. The conniving Slip persuades Sach to share the lamp with him, then instructs the genie that he can only take orders from the two of them jointly. The boys request $1,000,000, but are surprised when the genie loads the table with gold bars rather than "folding money." During the boys's ensuing quarrel, Sach inadvertantly wishes the gold away and both the money and the genie disappear. The incident is witnessed by Abdul and Selim, who follow Tiny and Canarsie after they steal the lamp. At the penthouse, Duke's girl friend Velma urges him to rub the lamp, but when the genie appears, the gangsters are angered to learn that he cannot take their orders.
    Believing Sach to be the genie's master, Duke sends Velma to the sweet shop, where she flirts outrageously with the dumbfounded Sach, and lures him and Slip to the penthouse. Gus's girl friend Claire pretends to be Velma's cousin and attempts to romance Slip while Velma separates him from Sach. Velma takes Sach to Duke, who threatens him with physical violence if he does not persuade the genie to obey them. The genie finally explains that he can only take orders from Slip and Sach together, so while Velma holds Sach at gun point, the gangsters search for Slip, who has escaped from Claire and Gus.
    Selim and Abdul have also arrived at the huge penthouse, adding to the melée. The Arabs capture Slip and lock him in the pantry, while the genie urges Sach to escape from Velma by aggressively romancing her. Louie, Chuck and Butch, who were told by Slip to come if he had not returned by 10:00, enter the fray, and after Slip is snatched from the pantry by Gus and Canarsie, Louie winds up in the pantry getting drunk with the genie. Duke, who keeps getting accidentally hit on the head by his men, becomes disgusted, and when Slip and Sach wander out onto the window ledge, orders his men to shoot them.
    Fortunately for the boys, Sach has found the lamp, and together they ask the genie to take them home. They are momentarily baffled upon realizing that they have been transported to ancient Bagdad, the genie's home, but when a group of lovely harem girls come to pamper them, they decide to linger for a while. Their enjoyment is interrupted by the arrival of the caliph, who orders the genie to return to him and threatens to chop the boys into pieces when the genie states that he cannot. Slip reluctantly offers to exchange the genie for their freedom, and after the caliph agrees, the genie sends the boys back to the New York window ledge, where they are still under fire from the gangsters.
    Just then, Chuck and Butch arrive with the police, and Duke and his hoods are arrested. Later, at the shop, Slip and the boys are bemoaning their fate when the genie, who has become fond of them, pops up to grant them one last wish. Although Slip urges caution so that they do not waste their wish, Sach, fed up with Slip's insults, inadvertantly wishes that he had the nerve to punch Slip. His wish granted, Sach knocks Slip unconscious, but then quickly runs out the door before Slip can awaken and take revenge.

High Society - April 1955 61 minutes - Directed by William Beaudine
Featuring: Leo Gorcey as Terence Aloysius 'Slip' Mahoney; Huntz Hall as Horace Debussy 'Sach' Jones; Bernard Gorcey as Louie Dumbrowsky; Amanda Blake as Clarissa Jones; David Gorcey as Chuck (as David Condon); Addison Richards as Sam Cosgrove; Paul Harvey as Henry Baldwin; Dayton Lummis as H. Stuyvesant Jones; Ronald Keith as Terwilliger Debussy 'Twig' Jones III; Gavin Gordon as Frisbie the Butler; Dave Barry as Palumbo the Pianist; Benny Bartlett as Butch (as Bennie Bartlett); Kem Dibbs as Marten the Chauffeur
While Slip and Sach are working in an auto garage, Sach is told that he is the heir to the fortune of the late Terwillinger Debussey Jones. Sach is invited to the mansion for a weekend of paper signing only to learn that the real heir is a 10 year old boy, Terwillinger III. The boys help the righful young heir fight against his scheming cousins for control of his fortune.
    At the Bowery Garage, Slip orders Sach to park an expensive car "right straight ahead." Sach, not knowing that the "R" on the car's steering column means reverse, believes he is putting the car into "right straight ahead" and crashes into the garage's rear wall. Even though infuriated Slip fires him, Sach is attempting to fix the car's dents with a sledgehammer when the car's owner, H. Stuyvesant Jones, arrives to claim it. Much to Slip's bewilderment, Jones's initial anger is defused upon learning Sach's name, and that he is an only child who was abandoned at birth.
    After promising to contact Sach soon, Jones leaves and returns to the Larchmont estate where he lives with his duplicitous niece Clarissa, her boyfriend, chauffeur Marten, and his young nephew, Terwilliger "Twig" Jones III. Jones and Clarissa have squandered their share of the vast Terwilliger fortune and are hoping to defraud Twig out of his larger portion by inventing a "lost" heir. Jones believes that they will be able to alter Sach's birth certificate to make it appear that he is the son of the family patriarch's ne'er-do-well son Pierpont, who disappeared years earlier. Clarissa worries that Frisbie the butler, who is devoted to Twig, will interfere, but Jones is undeterred.
    As they are discussing their plan, they are interrupted by Twig, who immediately senses that they are scheming against him yet again. Twig and Frisbie call Twig's lawyer, Sam Cosgrove, to alert him to the potential danger, but unknown to them, Cosgrove is in league with Jones. Soon after, Jones returns to the garage and there informs Sach that he has found Sach's birth certificate, which proves that he is the heir to the estate of copper magnate Terwilliger Pierpont Jones. Sach is thrilled, but the suspicious Slip insists on accompanying him to Larchmont, along with their pal Louie Dumbrowski.
    At the estate, Cosgrove examines the forged records and asserts that Sach's claim is legitimate, much to the dismay of Twig and Frisbie. Sach is eager to receive his half-a-million dollars, but Cosgrove states that the bank representative will not arrive until the following day to formalize the transaction. That evening, the Joneses host a musical soiree, featuring pianist Señor Palumbo, to introduce Sach to their society friends. The event is spoiled when Twig lets loose his collection of trained fleas, and afterward, Twig and Frisbie accuse Sach and Slip of attempting fraud. Upon hearing their concerns, Slip is determined to find Sach's birth certificate and learn the truth. After a few misadventures, the group finds the certificate, and Louie, who knew Sach's parents, confirms that it is fraudulent.
    Angered that they have been duped, Slip decides to help Twig prove that Jones is a criminal, but Sach, who misses the Bowery, wants to return home. When Jones discovers that the certificate is missing, he orders Clarissa to stall Sach while they search for it. Clarissa kisses Sach and searches his pockets while caressing him, but abruptly gives up when she determines that he does not have the paper. After Sach, covered with lipstick, returns to their room, Slip yells at him for "colluding with the enemy," but Sach refuses to believe that Clarissa is guilty. Meanwhile, Twig and Frisbie, still unaware of Cosgrove's true allegiance, have informed him of their discovery, and then report back to Slip.
    The group splits up, and when Sach is trapped in the library by Jones and a pistol-wielding Cosgrove, he realizes that Cosgrove is a crook. Slip, Twig and Frisbie enter the library, and despite Sach's use of Pig Latin to warn Slip, the friends are captured and Jones regains the birth certificate. Marten locks Slip, Twig, Frisbie and Louie in the attic while the others hold Sach in the library to await the bank representative, Henry Baldwin. When Baldwin arrives, Cosgrove warns him that Sach is eccentric, and then attempts to force Sach to sign the papers releasing the money to him. While Sach is doing his best to stall, Slip lowers Twig out the attic window, using electrical wire, and Twig rushes back upstairs to release them.
    They knock out Marten and run to the library, where they tell Baldwin that Cosgrove is crooked, and then attempt to elude Jones and the recovered Marten, who are trying to shoot them. With the aid of a toy train, toy bow and arrows and fencing equipment, Slip and his friends apprehend the criminals, and Baldwin calls the police. Later, Slip and Sach are back at their garage, which now boasts all of the latest, modern equipment, thanks to the generous Twig. Twig and Frisbie arrive to pick up their car, and Sach begins to pull it out. Not knowing that Sach was about to put the car out of reverse and into drive, Slip pulls him from the driver's seat and jumps in, then promptly drives the car into the wall again.

Spy Chasers - July 1955 61 minutes - Directed by Edward Bernds
Featuring: Leo Gorcey as Terence Aloysius 'Slip' Mahoney; Huntz Hall as Horace Debussy 'Sach' Jones; Bernard Gorcey as Louie Dumbrowsky; Leon Askin as Col. Alex Baxis; Sig Ruman as King Rako of Truania; Veola Vonn as Lady Zelda; Lisa Davis as Princess Ann; David Gorcey as Chuck (as David Condon); Benny Bartlett as Butch (as Bennie Bartlett); Richard Benedict as Boris; Frank Richards as George; Linda Bennett as Little Girl
Slip, Sach and the boys come to the aid of Princess Ann of Truania and her Father, the exiled King. The King ask ex-Truanina Louie to hide a secret half-coin until the time is right for the return of the exiled King. Slip and Sach distrust the Kings right hand man, Colonel Baxis, who is plotting against the King.
    Sach mistakenly assumes that a pretty girl is following him into Louie's sweet shop. The Boys mock Sach's notion, and the young woman reveals that she is Princess Ann from the tiny European country of Truania. Louie is delighted, as he is from Truania and his brother Felix still lives there. Ann informs Louie that Felix is the most loyal general of her father, King Rako, and is heading an underground movement to restore Rako to the throne. Rako, who was ousted by revolutionaries, is currently hiding in New York, and requires Louie's help.
    After Ann leaves, two thugs enter the shop and threaten the boys about becoming involved with Ann. Louie and the boys then go to the Truania consulate and there meet Col. Alex Baxis, Rako's aide, and Lady Zelda, Ann's lady-in-waiting. Rako explains that he has one half of a coin, the other half of which is in Felix's possession, and that Felix will send his half as a sign that it is safe for Rako to return to Truania. Needing a place to hide the coin, Rako gives it to Louie and tells him that Felix will send a courier with the other half at the appropriate time. Louie gravely accepts the responsibility, and back at the shop, he and Slip hide the half coin in a display candy bar made out of wood.
    While Louie is out, however, the bumbling Sach accidentally gives the candy bar to a temperamental little girl. Unknown to Rako and Ann, Baxis and Zelda are the leaders of the rebels trying to take over Truania, and while the boys are out looking for the girl, they send their henchmen, George and Boris, to search for the coin. Upon the boys's return, they are surprised to find that the shop is a mess but are glad when Sach arrives with the girl. Bribed by Louie with an ice cream cone, the girl returns the coin, although the transaction is witnessed by the lurking George and Boris. Zelda secretly invites Sach to the consulate and there, hypnotizes him and instructs him to give the coin to George and Boris in the early morning hours.
    At 4:00 a.m., Sach, still in a trance, hits Slip over the head with a frying pan, gets the coin and passes it to the henchmen, who make a wax impression of it. They return the coin and leave, but Slip, regaining consciousness, sees them and recognizes them as the thugs who had threatened them just after they met Ann. Several hours later, Slip and Sach, who is no longer in a trance, report to Rako. Slip is suspicious of Baxis and Zelda, and follows Baxis while Sach follows Zelda. Slip watches as Baxis meets George and Boris at a restaurant owned by their cohort, Nick, and realizes that Baxis is somehow betraying the king.
    Inside, Baxis tells his men that the wax impression has been turned into a fake coin, with which they will lure the king back to Truania before Felix is ready. The rebels will then be able to arrest and kill Rako. Soon after, Ann walks in as Zelda is making a short wave radio call to her cohorts about their scheme, and Baxis kidnaps her to keep her quiet. Slip is unaware of the events, however, and when Baxis' fake courier arrives with the phony coin, the boys relay his message that Rako is to return to Truania immediately. The distraught king protests that he cannot leave without his daughter, but Baxis assures him that he will find her.
    Suspecting that Ann is being held at Nick's, Slip and Sach rush to the restaurant and succeed in freeing the princess. When they take Ann to Louie's shop, they find that Chuck and Butch have tied up another courier, but this one, Ann's cousin Michael, is the real one. Michael explains that Rako is not to return for 10 days, at which time Felix will be able to guarantee his safety. Slip and the others race to the consulate, where Rako is preparing to leave. Slip informs him that Baxis and Zelda are traitors, which Ann confirms. Michael levels a pistol at Baxis to prevent him from escaping, but Zelda hypnotizes Sach into knocking away the gun, and a huge brawl ensues.
    Although Zelda periodically hypnotizes Sach into helping Baxis, Slip and his pals prevail, and Zelda and Baxis are arrested. Later, at a celebratory dinner hosted by Louie, Rako gives medals to his friends to thank them.

After newspaper employee Chuck suffers a beating while undercover in prison, the boys decide to enter prison to find the culprits.
    At Louie's sweet shop, Slip, Sach and Butch pay for their banana splits with yet another worthless check. Louie berates the boys for their lack of ambition and says they should be more like their other pal, Chuck, who works as a copy boy at the Blade newspaper. Just then, Chuck rushes in with news that he has been promoted to reporter and assigned to a big story, although he does not elaborate. Later, another Blade reporter named Sy Bowman comes to the shop and informs the friends that Chuck was badly beaten in a riot at the state penitentiary, where he was working undercover to investigate corruption.
    Horrified, Slip and the others immediately go to the hospital to visit Chuck, but before Bowman can leave, he is menaced by Willy, the thug who works for a bookie to whom Bowman owes $5,000. Bowman promises to pay soon, while at the hospital, a tearful Slip vows vengence when Chuck reveals that "Big Greenie" beat him. Bowman meets the boys at the hospital, and Slip decides to commit a real crime so that he, Sach and Butch will be sent to the penitentiary to find Chuck's attacker and uncover the corruption. Bowman agrees to the plan, which will require him to notify the prison's warden, Oswald, and the Blade 's editor of the boys's innocence, as well as hold the loot from their robbery for safekeeping.
    That night, the boys rob Potnick's jewelry store and leave many clues as to their identities, including fingerprints and a stamp stating "Sach was here." The police are baffled about the crime, however, and do not arrest Slip and the others until Bowman makes an anonymous call implicating them. Unknown to the boys, as they are entering the penitentiary, Bowman sells the goods from Potnick's and uses the money to pay off his bookie. In the prison, the boys are taken by tough guard Jenkins to see Oswald, who has been the warden for only a few weeks. Oswald, who was not informed by Bowman about the undercover investigation, is puzzled by the boys's insistence that they will be leaving in a few weeks, and orders Jenkins to keep a close eye on them.
    Slip and his pals then meet their cellmate, Hank Gaffney, who reveals that he has been digging an escape tunnel for twenty-two years. After many problems trying to adapt to the prison work routine, the boys are ordered by Jenkins to mop floors. The area they are taken to houses gangster Percival P. Lannigan and his henchmen, including Tom Tomcyk and Big Greenie. Slip, Sach and Butch are amazed by Lannigan's lavishly appointed cell, as well as the gourmet food he is served and the luxurious clothes he wears instead of a uniform. They overhear him talk about the payoffs he makes to the guards, with Jenkins serving as his go-between, and watch as he slips a notebook filled with details of his payments into his desk.
    After the gangster orders Slip and Sach to clean his cell, they attempt to steal the notebook but fail. They then demand to see Oswald and tell him about their connection to Bowman. When Oswald calls Bowman, however, he denies knowing the boys. The warden then visits Lannigan's cell, but it has been transformed to look like everyone else's. Believing that the boys are insane, Oswald sends them to prison psychiatrist Fernando F. Fordyce, who is driven crazy by the boys's constant bickering. Slip realizes that Bowman has double-crossed them, and when Louie visits, tells him that he must take Chuck to see the editor of the Blade to verify their story. Greenie overhears their conversation and reports to Lannigan, who orders his men "on the outside" to pick up Louie and Chuck.
    When the boys return to their cells later, they learn from Hank that Lannigan intends to have them killed the following day, and that he has captured Louie and Chuck. Desperate to save their friends, the boys try to escape using Hank's tunnel, but it emerges in the warden's office. Just then, Oswald enters, but he assures the boys that he now believes them, as he made a surprise inspection of Lannigan's cell and found the luxury items they described. Before Oswald can alert the prison board, Lannigan, Tomcyk and Greenie arrive, and a brawl ensues. Through Sach's trickery, Tomcyk and Greenie plunge down into Hank's tunnel and are knocked unconscious, while Slip beats Lannigan into revealing where Louie and Chuck are being held.
    Slip gets Lannigan's notebook, then tosses him into the tunnel. Oswald calls the police, who rescue Chuck and Louie, then apologizes to the boys for doubting them. He promises to arrange for their releases but urges them to be patient. Much later, Slip, Sach and Butch are still in their cell, remembering Oswald's words about patience as they stroke their long beards.

Dig That Uranium - January 1956 62 minutes - Directed by Edward Bernds
Featuring: Leo Gorcey as Terence Aloysius 'Slip' Mahoney; Huntz Hall as Horace Debussy 'Sach' Jones; Bernard Gorcey as Louie Dumbrowsky; Mary Beth Hughes as Jeanette; Raymond Hatton as Hank 'Mac' McKenzie; Harry Lauter as Ron Haskell; Myron Healey as Joe Hody; Tom Keene as Frank Loomis (as Richard Powers); Paul Fierro as Indian; David Gorcey as Chuck (as David Condon); Benny Bartlett as Butch (as Bennie Bartlett)
The boys discover that the Uranium mine that they talked Louie into buying isn't filled with riches but instead find themselves fighting with outlaws.
    Sach brings an old friend, Shifty Robertson, into Louie's who claims he is now a wealthy uranium mine owner. Although Shifty offers no explanation, he is anxious to sell the deed to his Little Daisy mine. Slip pressures Louie into buying the deed, after which Shifty runs from the shop. Some time later, the Bowery friends arrive in Panther Pass, Nevada, where their jalopy breaks down. Local henchmen Joe Hody and Frank Loomis shoot at the New Yorkers from the hotel, hoping to dissuade them from remaining in town. Slip, Sach and the others unwittingly flee for safety into the town's sole hotel.
    Hotel owner Ron Haskell, who has hired Hody and Loomis to discourage prospective prospectors, tells them there are no vacancies. When Slip, Sach, Louie, Butch and Chuck have lunch at the hotel restaurant, the waitress, Jeannette, overhears Sach bragging about their lucrative mine. After Sach unintentionally spills Loomis' drink at the bar Loomis insists Sach drink "Old Vesuvius," a powerful liquor. A brawl then ensues as Slip, Butch and Chuck defend their friend. Meanwhile, Jeannette reports to Haskell what she heard about the mine. As a result, Haskell breaks up the fight and is suddenly solicitous, explaining there are new vacancies in the hotel. Slip agrees to rent one room for all of them, unaware that Haskell is plotting to steal the mine. That night, Jeannette attempts to seduce Sach, who unwittingly reveals that Louie has the Little Daisy mine deed with him.
    After telling Sach to leave, Jeannette reports the information to Haskell, who invites Louie to join him, Hody and Loomis in a poker game. Although they attempt to cheat Louie in order to force him to stake the deed as collateral, he intercepts the cards they are surreptitiously passing under the table to each other. To Haskell's dismay, Louie wins the game. The next day, the auto mechanic explains that he has improved the speed on the car's reverse gear, and after paying him for his work, the Bowery Boys drive to the mine in Bearclaw Canyon. Sach uses the Geiger counter but detects no uranium, so Slip tries to take it from him. Hody and Loomis observe them through binoculars, and believe that they are arguing because they have found uranium. After Hody and Loomis leave to report to Haskell, the Bowery Boys encounter an old prospector named Hank "Mac" McKenzie, who informs them they have not found uranium because the Little Daisy is actually an old silver mine.
    Slip blames Sach and hits him on the head, and they later realize they are too poor to return home. When a rock is thrown through their hotel room window, the attached note warns them to stay away from Bearclaw Canyon. Slip concludes this means there is actually uranium in the area and they decide to set up camp in the desert to continue prospecting. The next day, Butch and Chuck return from their first foray with nothing but Mac, who is welcomed. To encourage the weary men to persevere, Mac tells a story about the rugged old West and an outlaw named Pecos Pete.
    While he is talking, Sach closes his eyes and imagines Mac's story with Hody and Loomis as the outlaws, himself and Slip as heroic Rangers, and their friends as the other characters: Pecos Pete and his partner Idaho burst into a saloon and demand a drink from the bartender Louie. When the rebellious saloon girl, Jeannette, tells Pecos he could not bully them if the Rangers were present, Pecos kisses her. Moments later, the Rangers, Sach and Slip, enter the saloon and confront Pecos and Idaho, who draw their weapons. The Rangers disarm the outlaws by firing at them, and Pecos and Idaho flee after arranging for a showdown at dusk. That night, Pecos and Idaho bring reinforcements to the shoot-out, but the Rangers handily dispatch four of the men, leaving Pecos and Idaho.
    Believing that only Pecos is alive, Slip approaches his hiding place. Jeannette warns Sach that Idaho is still alive, and Sach saves Slip by killing Idaho, after which Slip kills Pecos. Sach awakens as Mac finishes his story, and they are all inspired to renew their search in the morning. The next day, Hody and Loomis report to Haskell that there is no uranium at the Little Daisy, prompting him to believe that Slip and his gang have tricked him into searching in the wrong place. Shortly afterward, Sach finds uranium nearby and alerts Mac, but they are attacked by Haskell and his men, who have been watching them. Mac flees on his burro, Josephine, but Sach appears to be hit by a bullet and falls over a cliff. After Mac reports back to camp, everyone piles into the jalopy to find Sach. Sach awakens and discovers that he is unharmed and has landed on a ledge, and soon after, his friends rescue him with a rope. However, Haskell stops them before they can leave the area, and threatens to kill them.
    Invigorated by the encounter, Sach infuriates Slip by suggesting to Haskell that the most convenient method of killing them would be to send them over a cliff in their own car. Haskell likes the idea, and orders Slip at gunpoint to drive, while he and his henchmen follow in another car. However, Slip uses the supercharged reverse installed by the mechanic to elude Haskell and his men. After a lengthy chase, Haskell's car sails off a cliff and crashes. Sach, Slip, Louis, Butch and Chuck discover that the crash dislodged some earth by the Little Daisy Mine, revealing uranium. Moments later, they are confronted by an Indian tribe, which claims the mine because it is part of their reservation. A disappointed Slip rejects the chief's offer of flowers. However, Sach gratefully accepts Spring Wildflowers, who is actually a beautiful Indian maiden.

Crashing Las Vegas - April 1956 62 minutes - Directed by Jean Yarbrough
This is the last film with Leo Gorcey.
Featuring: Leo Gorcey as Terence Aloysius 'Slip' Mahoney; Huntz Hall as Horace Debussy 'Sach' Jones; Mary Castle as Carol LaRue; Don Haggerty as Tony Murlock; David Gorcey as Chuck (as David Condon); Terry Frost as Police Sgt. Kelly; Jimmy Murphy as Myron; Mort Mills as Oggy; Jack Rice as Wiley; Nicky Blair as Sam; Doris Kemper as Miss Kate Kelly
Sach is able to predict numbers after receiving an electric shock. The boys head to Las Vegas after he wins a hotel stay on a game show. Gangsters blackmail Sach to give them all his winnings.
    When landlady Mrs. Kelly is given her notice after more than thirty years, Slip and Sach determine to help her buy the building, even though they are broke. Just after the bumbling Sach gets a strong shock from an electric plug, Butch and Chuck arrive with four free tickets to the "Live Like a King" quiz program. Hoping to get a chance to win some money, the boys go to the show that afternoon. Winners are determined by a spin of a wheel of fortune, and Sach, who has been seeing numbers in his head since the shock, accurately predicts what the first several winning seat numbers will be. By bullying another member of the audience into vacating seat number 87, Slip wins the prize when that number is called.
    Slip's three friends demand to share the prize, so Slip convinces the program emcee to change the prize from four luxurious weeks in Las Vegas for one to one week for four. After being flown to Las Vegas and checking into their hotel, Sach decides to bet a quarter on the roulette wheel. He repeatedly wins, amassing a large amount of money, but loses it all after stepping away from the table. Slip then gives him another quarter, and Sach wins even more money, attracting the attention of fortune hunter Carol LaRue and her two cohorts, Oggy and Sam, who think Sach has a system and want to find out what it is.
    The next day, Sach introduces his friends to Carol, who relates that Sach saved her life in the swimming pool. When Carol tells Sach that she came to Las Vegas to win money for her mother's operation, he boasts that he can help her but loses her last two hundred dollars when he fails to predict the winning numbers on the roulette wheel. After she angrily leaves him in the casino, Sach confesses to Slip that when she was with him, he could not think of anything but her, then quickly wins enough money to close down the wheel. Later, Carol, Oggy and Sam determine to cheat Sach out of his winnings and devise a plan that involves another cohort,
    Tony. Next morning, Carol calls Sach and apologizes, asking to see him again. At breakfast, Slip says that they now have enough money for Mrs. Kelly but suggests that Sach try some of the other casinos to win something for their "reclining" years. Because a picture of Sach and a story about his luck appears in the morning newspaper, though, they realize that no other casino will let him gamble and decide to go home after a night out on the town. When Carol meets Sach at one of the clubs that night, she convinces him to sneak off with her. When Slip, Butch and Chuck later go looking for Sach, they find a recording device that Tony has planted in his room and assume that Sach has been kidnapped.
    While they call the police to report Sach's disappearance, Carol takes Sach to her "penthouse" apartment. Unknown to the naïve Sach, Tony, Sam and Oggy trick him into believing he is riding the elevator to the twenty-first floor, when, in fact, they never leave the first floor. Once inside Carol's apartment, she makes a play for him until Tony, who she says is her husband, angrily bursts through the door. Tony then scuffles with Sach and leaps out the open window, making Sach think that he is responsible for Tony's death. Now Oggy, who accompanied Tony, pretends to call the police to a report a murder, but Sach rushes out of the room, gets into the elevator and exits after what he thinks is 21 floors.
    Outside, he sees Tony's "body" on the ground then hides in a nearby car, not knowing that it is a police car. When Sach hears a radio report that the police are looking for him, he mistakenly believes that they want him for the murder of Carol's husband. He then makes his way back to his own hotel room and hides in the closet when he hears his three friends come in. Overhearing Slip talk to the police using the words "murder" and "conviction," Sach, still convinced that that he is a fugitive, faints. While unconscious, he dreams that the hotel floor manager is a judge who sentences Sach, Slip, Butch and Chuck to execution in the electric chair. As Sach starts to scream in his sleep, the boys overhear him and open the door. After Slip and Sach exchange stories, Slip guesses that the "murder" was a setup and goes to find a lawyer.
    After he leaves, Carol and Oggy arrive and suggest to Sach that they could make a deal if he tells them what his system is. Although they do not believe him when he says he does not have one, they leave when he offers them his suitcase full of money. Moments later, Slip returns and when Sach explains what happened to the money, Slip reveals that the police have confirmed that there has been no murder. To get Sach's money back, the boys all go to Carol's apartment, which they learn is on the first floor, and search the premises. As they are searching the bedroom, Oggy and his cohorts arrive with the suitacse.
    A fight ensues after Sach sees Tony and realizes that he did not kill anyone. Soon all three thugs are knocked out, as is Sach, who awakens and accidentally turns on a fan that blows all of the money out of Carol's window. When he tries to unplug the fan, Sach gets another electric shock that makes him lose his ability to visualize numbers. Back at their hotel, the disheartened Sach and Slip are cheered by a call from Mrs. Kelly, who has come to look after them, but wind up in a fight when Sach incorrectly guesses her room number.

    Mrs. Kelly encourages Sach in his pursuit of becoming an artistic photographer and inventor of unusual cameras. When fellow boarder Danny comes home after his boss fires him for being in the stockroom when $200 was stolen from the store cash register, Sach and their pal, Stanislaus "Duke" Coveleskie, go to newspaper editor Ray Vance, hoping to win the money in the paper's photography contest. The contest has been over for six months, but because Vance is desperate to get a photograph of notorious mobster Frankie Arbo, and his own photographer is injured, he hires Sach and agrees to give him a $200 advance.
    The boys take a hotel room across the street from Arbo's and spy on him and his girl friend, Mae Randall, but their attempts to get an incriminating picture are foiled by Sach's bumbling. After talking things over with Danny and their friend Chuck Anderson, Duke hatches a plan for an undercover operation. Disguised as a goatee-wearing French decorator, Sach goes to Mae's apartment and says the management has hired him. While Mae is trying to decide upon a color scheme, Sach suggests asking her boyfriend for advice, and a few minutes later, Frankie comes to the apartment, accompanied by cohort Chips Conroy. While Frankie tells Mae that he and Chips are working on a big deal, Sach quickly takes a flash photograph, after which the enraged Frankie and Chips go after him and Duke.
    With the aid of a sliding-door closet, the boys narrowly escape, then go to Vance, who is being pressured by his boss to get an incriminating photo of Frankie. Vance is delighted that Sach and Duke have pictures, but when Sach accidentally exposes the role of film, Vance throws them out of the office. Back at the boardinghouse, Sach is perfecting a new camera concealed inside a high-flame lighter when Danny and Chuck, who, on Duke's instructions, were following Frankie, report that he has gone to the Hula Hut, a Westchester nightclub he now owns. Because Danny's boss has refused to rehire him, despite Danny's giving him Sach's $200, Danny has taken a job as a waiter at the Hula Hut. Sometime later, Danny is clearing dishes in Frankie's office when he overhears Frankie's conversation with Chicago gangster Vic Savigne.
    Danny learns that gangster Handsome Hal Lomax is coming to New York that afternoon and that neither Frankie nor Chips knows what he looks like. After Duke obtains a photograph of Hal, he and Sach pick Hal up at the airport and take him back to the boardinghouse. They enlist Mrs. Kelly to pretend she runs the boardinghouse as a hideout for local gangsters and use a radio set up by Chuck to broadcast phony news reports that Hal has been seen nearby. After observing Hal's pronounced tics and hypochondria, Sach tells him he must stay in the boardinghouse to elude the police, then secretly calls Vance to tell him they are working on a big scoop and will have lots of pictures for him. Pretending to be Hal, and accompanied by Duke, Sach goes to the Hula Hut to meet Frankie.
    Despite his exaggerated impersonation, Sach convinces Frankie that he is Hal and takes photographs of him, Chips and their cohorts with his camera lighter. Now Frankie reveals that he has a large supply of excellent quality counterfeit twenty dollar bills that he will sell to them for twenty percent of face value. As Sach is examining the phony bills, Vic calls from Chicago and asks to speak with Hal. The nervous Sach pretends to have a cold, so Vic does not recognize that he is not the real Hal and warns him that Hal's jealous ex-girl friend, Dolly Tate, has left for New York. Meanwhile, at the boardinghouse, the real Hal leaves his room to make a phone call and sees Chuck as he is broadcasting another phony news report. Hal pulls a gun on Chuck, but flees the boardinghouse when Mrs. Kelly confronts him with an old shotgun that accidentally discharges At the Hula Hut, Frankie is becoming suspicious of Sach when he fails to recognize counterfeiter Otto Brock, whom he had previously said he knew.
    At that moment, the real Hal comes to the club and demands that Mae let him in to see Frankie. Frankie determines to find out who the imposter is just as Dolly arrives at the club. Learning what is going on from Frankie, Dolly says that she will point out the real Hal, but inside the office, while Hal pleads with her to identify him, she throws her arms about Sach. As Frankie's cohorts start to drag the real Hal away, Sach asks Dolly if he may take her picture for his album. Her amazement at his lighter camera attracts Frankie's attention, after which he and the others chase after Duke and Sach. The boys hide in the counterfeiting room and close its secret panels. Each time the gangsters open the panels, Sach pelts them with a coconut catapulted from Brock's printing press. Soon the police arrive, having been alerted by Danny.
    After the police take away the gangsters and their girl friends, Danny, Vance and Chuck find Sach and Duke behind the panels. Despite the fact that Sach has hit him in the head with a coconut, Vance is overjoyed to learn that Sach has gotten the incriminating photographs. However, when Sach accidentally exposes the film, Vance and Duke grab machetes from a wall decoration and chase after him. The next day, Duke and Sach are working at their new jobs for Vance, selling newspapers outside the building.

Morley; Mark Dana as George Slater; Henry Rowland as Karl; Isabel Randolph as Mrs. Taylor
Sach and Duke acquaint themselves with television executives after an 8 year old Joey Monroe, the TV star steals the boys car. Sach and Duke are hired to baby sit the star and find out that the star's uncle is stealing money.
    When Sach and Duke find a feisty little boy trying to steal their old jalopy, they take him to the boardinghouse where they live. Mrs. Kelly is immediately sympathetic to the boy, who claims to be an abused orphan whose parents died in a blizzard. Mrs. Kelly, a devoted follower of a popular television serial, remarks that there was a similar story recently on the show, then proceeds to make the boy a hot meal. Although Duke is skeptical of the boy's story, he, Sach and friends Chuck and Myron use the money from Sach's piggybank to buy the boy some fresh clothes. Meanwhile, at the Consolidated Television Network, executive P. M. Morley has placed a call to police captain Wells to inform him that child star Joey Munroe is missing.
    A short time later, the little boy insults Mrs. Kelly's cooking and scoffs at the new suit Sach bought. Just then, two policemen arrive at the door looking for Joey. The boy acknowledges that he is Joey, but says that he was kidnapped by Sach and the others. At the police station, when a concerned P. M. and Joey's uncle, George Slater, arrive to take him home, Joey relates a dramatic tale of his "kidnapping." When P. M. recognizes it as the plot of next week's script, Joey confesses that he ran away because he never has any fun or time off. P. M. then apologizes to the boys and Mrs. Kelly, but Sach and Duke threaten to sue and loudly criticize him and Slater for not letting Joey be a normal boy. P. M. agrees that they have been wrong and invites Sach and Duke to the station to see the new show. The next day, Joey has a tantrum about the new script and refuses to perform until Sach and Duke look at it and enthusiastically say that his fans will love it. P. M. is impressed with the influence Sach and Joey have with Joey and offers them jobs as the company's 34th and 35th vice-presidents in charge of inter-relational activities.
    They readily accept and soon are enjoying a large office and the charms of their voluptuous blonde secretary, Connie Forbes, who is Slater's girl friend. Joey, who is happy to have two friends and looks forward to going fishing with them at the end of the television season, is crestfallen when his greedy uncle announces that they have just signed a new contract to extend the show through the summer. Some time later, Slater, Connie and their cohort Karl try to think of a way to curtail Sach and Duke's influence over Joey. Because P. M. likes Sach and Duke, Karl suggests that they invite the boys to a party at the home of the show's sponsor, soap tycoon B. L. Taylor, where they will assuredly make fools of themselves and force P. M. to fire them.
    Even though Sach's uncouth ways and unintended insults to the Taylors cause problems at the party, B. L. finds his honesty refreshing. His admiration for Sach eventually wanes, though, when Sach cracks a raw egg on B. L.'s head while trying to duplicate a magic trick set up by Connie. The next day, P. M. is distraught that B. L. will not talk to him and tells Slater that he has no choice but to fire Sach and Duke. After they are fired, Duke privately admits to Sach that P. M. was right about their being a bad influence on Joey, who might grow up to be a "mug" like them if they stayed. That same day, when Slater lashes out at Joey for reading a comic book instead of his new script, Joey refuses to go on with the show and threatens to tell everyone that B. L.'s soap is terrible.
    After Joey storms off to his room, Slater tells Connie that if the show is cancelled an accounting will reveal that he embezzled $80,000. Slater suggests that if Joey disappeared for real, P. M. would pay anything to get him back, after which Karl says that he has friends who could arrange something. Unknown to them, Joey has packed his things and slipped down the fire escape to head for Mrs. Kelly's boardinghouse. Although it is very late, Sach is up having a snack and is happy to see Joey, who says he wants to stay with him. In the kitchen, as Sach is getting something for Joey to eat, some pots and pans fall, awakening everyone else in the house.
    Concerned that this time the police will think that they had kidnapped Joey, Duke pretends to be tough and tells the boy that he and Sach were only friendly toward him to get their jobs. Sach reluctantly agrees and telephones Slater to tell him that Joey is at the boardinghouse. A short time later, Karl arrives to take Joey home, but when Sach sadly looks through the window at the departing boy, he sees two thugs force Joey into a car. Sach and Duke then go to Slater's house to see if Joey is there and tell the others to call the police if they are not back within an hour. Sach and Duke eventually are found by Karl, Slater and Connie, who then tie them up and put then into Joey's closet.
    With $100,000 in ransom money promised by a worried P. M., Connie suggests that they take the money and head for Mexico, but first they have to go to the warehouse where Joey is being held. After they leave, Myron and Chuck arrive and untie Sach and Duke. They then follow Karl, Connie and Slater to the warehouse. At the warehouse, with Joey's help, Sach and Duke best the henchmen in a fight, and the police arrest Slater and the others. Some time later, as Joey, Duke and Sach happily prepare for a fishing trip they are taking with Joey, P. M. announces he has been appointed Joey's guardian. Joey gives him a hug and thanks him for finding a summer replacement for his show. P. M. then introduces Sach and Duke to his little cowboy star Annie, who shows them that her six-guns are loaded¿with water.

Hold That Hypnotist - February 1957 61 minutes - Directed by Austen Jewell
Featuring: Huntz Hall as Horace Debussy 'Sach' Jones; Stanley Clements as Stanislaus 'Duke' Coveleskie; Jane Nigh as Cleo Daniels; Robert Foulk as Dr. Simon Noble; James Flavin as Jake Morgan; Queenie Smith as Kate Kelly; David Gorcey as Chuck (as David Condon); Jimmy Murphy as Myron; Murray Alper as Gale; Dick Elliott as Hotel Desk Clerk; Mel Welles as Blackbeard
The boys want to expose hypnotist Dr. Noble as a quack. He has already taken Mrs. Kelly’s money. Sach is hypnotized and learns in his past life that he hid a treasure.
    Duke is concerned when he and Sach discover that Mrs. Kelly, who has been reading a book about reincarnation, has made an appointment with the book's author, Dr. Simon Noble, to be hypnotized and "regressed" in order to find her former selves. Duke is aware of Noble's background in quack medicine and advises Mrs. Kelly to save her money, but she insists on keeping the appointment. Duke decides that he, Sach, Chuck and Myron will expose Noble before Mrs. Kelly hands over her cash, and when he finds out that Noble and his business partner, Jake Morgan, are hosting a press reception, the boys crash the event.
    Meanwhile, Noble and Morgan want to get rid of Noble's voluptuous, scatterbrained "secretary," Cleo Daniels, because she knows that the subject in Noble's book was paid by the doctor to say what he told her about her previous lives. Duke challenges Noble to regress him in front of the reporters and although the doctor fails to regress Duke, Sach falls into a hypnotic trance after staring at one of Cleo's earrings that Noble is using to hypnotize Duke. Sach tells them that he is Algy Winkle and, in a flashback, he enters a 1682, Charleston, South Carolina inn to collect taxes. Algy confronts notorious pirate Blackbeard and insists that he pay taxes on all his loot.
    Impressed by Algy's naïve gall, Blackbeard challenges him to a self-devised game of chance and wagers a map showing where his treasure is buried against Algy's tax receipts for the day. Although Algy has never played the game, he wins and a fight breaks out. Back in the present, Sach wakes up before he can tell Noble if he found the treasure. Duke and the boys, impressed by the apparent veracity of Sach's experience, go to a library and research Algy Winkle's life. They discover that Algy was on his way to claim Blackbeard's treasure when he was drowned in a storm at sea. Duke believes that Sach can be hypnotized into remembering the map's details, so they return to Noble and offer him a share of the treasure, if it can be recovered. They soon discover, however, that the hypnosis does not work without Cleo's earring.
    As Morgan has paid off Cleo, the boys go looking for her and find her working as a swimsuit model in Jersey City. Cleo is willing to hand over her earrings, but insists upon a share of any treasure. When Noble finally regresses Sach, he goes back too far in time and Sach finds himself as Marc Antony, addressing the citizens of Ancient Rome. Algy eventually emerges and states that he memorized the map and gives explicit directions to a cave in Hudson's Cove. Noble and Morgan then pull out revolvers and state that they intend to claim the treasure for themselves. Leaving the still-hypnotized Sach with a gun and instructions to stop the others from following, Noble and Morgan leave.
    While the crooks attempt to locate the cave in greatly changed terrain, Cleo frees Sach from his trance by kissing him. When the boys arrive near the cave in their old jalopy, Sach finds an old magazine among the car's tools and suddenly realizes that his subconscious has created the entire Blackbeard episode as a result of his having read about the pirate in the magazine.

The boys go with cafe owner Mike Clancey to a mountain house that he bought to help him rest his nerves. Sach discovers a fortune hidden away. Gangsters want their money back.
    Cafe owner Mike Clancy is told by his doctor that he needs to take a rest in the country because his asthma is not improving and he is overworked. The doctor's suggestion that Mike buy a place in the mountains is overheard by crooked real estate agent Harry Shelby and his assistant-girlfriend Dolly Owens, who see the opportunity to unload a derelict farmhouse owned by a gangster's widow. Mike is persuaded to buy the place, sight unseen, and is horrified when he and the Boys drive there and discover that the property is in an extremely dilapidated condition. Although the Boys claim that they can fix the place up, Mike phones Shelby to demand his money back, but Dolly answers and lies that Shelby is out of town.
    While cleaning up the place, Sach causes major electrical and plumbing disasters when he attempts to fix a leaky faucet. Angered by Sach's blunders, Duke chases him, causing him to collide with a wall. After the collision dislodges a pile of cash from its hiding place, the Boys search the rest of the house for more bills, but find none. When Mike, Duke and Sach visit Shelby's office to pay off the balance of the purchase price of the house, Shelby wonders where they suddenly found all the cash. After they leave, Snap, Ziggie and Ernie, three friends of the late gangster, who claim to represent his widow, arrive and tell Shelby they will deliver the money to her. Realizing that the money may be part of the proceeds from a robbery in which they all participated, Snap tells Shelby to offer to buy back the property from Mike at twice the original price.
    Soon after, the Boys are at the café discussing how to invest the cash when Shelby comes to make his offer. After Mike refuses all of Shelby's offers, Shelby mentions that the house is rumored to be haunted and reminds Mike of his delicate state of health, causing Duke to suspect that Shelby knows something about the hidden bills. Hoping to persuade Sach to reveal why the house is in such demand, Shelby asks Dolly to romance him. While the Boys are preparing to leave for the house, Dolly invites Sach to her apartment and after she gets him tipsy, he tells her about the money.
    After Duke manages to locate Sach, they and the others head for the house, arriving during a thunder and lightning storm. Sach and Blinky share a room, but are soon disturbed by two "ghosts," who also tie up and gag Chuck and Myron. Meanwhile, Snap and his sidekicks enter the house and search for the cash, which they believe rightfully belongs to them. While Sach is trying to flee from one of the ghosts, he accidentally discovers a revolving wall with a shelf containing several bags of money. When Snap and his friends try to relieve Sach of the cash, he tricks them and knocks Snap's gun out of his hand, causing it to fire. The shot alerts Duke, Mike and Blinky who then overpower the gangsters.
    As two ghosts enter and demand the money at gunpoint, a police lieutenant and three officers, who have been following Snap, arrive and arrest them. The lieutenant removes the ghosts' hoods, revealing Shelby and Dolly. Later, the Boys think Sach is playing a joke on them by dressing as one of the ghosts, until Sach suddenly shows up as the ghost disappears through a wall. At a party to celebrate the recovery of the cash, stolen in an armored car robbery, Sach poses for photographs with two attractive young women and claims to be the bravest man in the world until Duke dons one of the ghost outfits and terrifies him.

Duke tells an officer of the War Department how he lost a pot during World War II. Disguised as Nazi officers, the boys battle the Nazis.
    After a series of café robberies, Mike Clancy, is concerned that he might be next, so Sach rigs his cash register to set off a string of booby traps. One day, Lester Bradfield, an official from the U.S. War Dept., visits the café to demand the return of an aluminum cooking pot issued to Duke when he served on a mess detail in North Africa during World War II. Duke claims to have lost the pot during the war, but Bradfield insists upon proof, so Duke launches into a long story about his adventures in the battle against Rommel's forces: Duke and Sach and their Bowery companions, Chuck, Myron and Blinky, are all serving in the same unit and, when their sergeant is asked to supply two soldiers for what may be a suicide mission, he is only too happy to nominate Duke and Sach.
    Their mission is to impersonate German soldiers to infiltrate enemy territory and deliver a message to a supposedly friendly sultan whose country is occupied by the Germans. Posing as Hauptman Otto von Schnabel and his orderly Schultz, Sach and Duke are also ordered to contact an undercover agent known only as "The Hawk" and are given one half of a ring as identification and told that The Hawk will identify himself by presenting the other half. Sach and Duke reach the palace of Sultan Sidi-Omar and seek an audience with him. The sultan and his aide, Hassan, quickly realize that Sach and Duke are Americans and Sach hands over the letter stating that the U.S. Army intends to liberate the country, but needs information about German troop placements.
    Unknown to Sach and Duke, the sultan is a double agent in league with the Nazis and turns the message over to German officer Wolff. The sultan invites Sach and Duke to stay and relax, and while they are being entertained by several dancing girls, one of the dancers, Shareen, recognizes Sach's ring and slips him a message to meet her that night. The sultan gives Sach a letter to take back to the American high command, which is, in fact, a trick to lure the army into a trap. When Sach meets Shareen, she shows him the other half of the ring, tells him that she is The Hawk and arranges to provide him with a substitute message for the U.S. forces. Later, when Shareen takes Sach and Duke to meet resistance leader Col. Ahmed Tabari, Wolff follows them.
    After Shareen leaves to gather more details about the location of a panzer division, Sach and Duke are about to use Ahmed's secret radio to send a message regarding the sultan's defection and trap, when they are arrested by Wolff. While Sach, Duke and Ahmed are interrogated about their activities, the Germans transmit a false message in the boys' name to the U.S. base. After Hassan announces that Shareen has also been arrested, Sach and Duke learn that they are to be executed. A few hours before their execution, however, they are rescued by Chuck, Myron and Blinky, who are posing as German officers and are the advance guard of the invading U.S. force.
    They then manage to free Ahmed and Shareen, who leave to warn the U.S. troops of the potential ambush. Sach and the others overpower the sultan and the German officers in the palace and, thanks in part to their efforts, Rommel is defeated eventually. By the time Duke finishes his account, Bradfield is exhausted and still has not found out what happened to the pot. Duke is about to continue with the saga, but Bradfield and the boys have had enough. Sach offers to pay Bradfield the $4.38 Duke owes for the pot and he gratefully accepts. When Sach attempts to take the cash from the register, however, he triggers several booby traps including one involving the missing pot, which has been used in the café as a plant holder and it falls on Bradfield's head, knocking him out.

Sach sells his soul to the Devil in exchange for horse racing tips. The gangsters want the tips.
    The Boys have been collecting money to help a young polio victim in the neighborhood. At Mike Clancy's café, Sach is entrusted with taking the ninety dollars they collected to the bank. Sam, a new customer of Mike's, offers to give Sach a ride to the bank but takes him instead to a phony bookie joint where, unaware that the operation is not legitimate, he loses all the money to con men Tony and Al. After Duke berates him for losing the cash, Sach tells Blinky that he would give his very soul to get even with the bookies.
    Seconds after Blinky leaves, Sach receives a visit from the devil, sporting a morning coat and two small horns under his hat. The devil offers Sach a deal: he will provide Sach with the name of a winning horse every day for a week in return for Sach's soul. Although scared, Sach ultimately agrees and, after signing the devil's contract, is provided with his winner of the day. When Sach returns to Tony and Al to make a bet, they ask him for cash. Sach then decides to sell a jalopy belonging to the boys and takes it to a used car dealer, unaware that Duke has just sold the car to a patrol officer. The dealer virtually tears the car apart to reduce its value and offers Sach a dime for it, just as the policeman finds and arrests him. The devil visits Sach in jail and gives him the name of another winning horse.
    When Sach's horse wins, Tony and Al wonder if he might have inside information. With Mike's help, Duke and the others bail Sach out and the next day, the devil reappears in the form of an organ grinder's monkey with another tip. After the boys discover Sach chatting with the monkey, they arrange for him to visit a psychiatrist, but Sach only confuses the doctor, who ends up asking him for tips on winning horses. With twenty dollars borrowed from Mike, Sach returns to the phony bookie joint to bet on the newest horse the devil gave him, and Tony and Al decide to lay legitimate bets on the same horse. At the last moment, however, Sach is persuaded by a tout to bet on a different horse and everybody loses. Tony and Al are mystified by Sach's inside information and persuade Mabel, Tony's girl friend, to take a waitress job at Mike's to keep tabs on Sach and to find out the source of his tips.
    On the last day of their agreement, the devil gives Sach a hundred dollar bill and tells him to go to the racetrack and await word on the winning horse's name. Sach and Duke go to the track, accompanied by Mabel, and are followed by Tony, Al and Sam. Just after Sach receives the horse's name, "Rubber Check," from the devil, disguised as a soft drinks salesman, Chuck arrives with the news that the Polio Fund has agreed to pay for the boy's treatment. Sach then realizes that they now do not need the money and he can cancel the devil's contract. Duke, however, insists on betting on Rubber Check and Mabel tips off Tony and the others. Sach talks with the devil and attempts to break the contract, but the devil refuses and points out that if the horse wins, Sach's soul is his. Sach then convinces Duke to help him to disable Rubber Check's jockey after which Sach takes his place in the race, but is unable to stop the horse from winning.
    Just after Sach explains the full dimensions of his problem to Duke, the devil reappears to claim him, but is thwarted by an official track announcement that Rubber Check is disqualified as he had an unauthorized jockey, thereby nullifying the devil's contract with Sach and causing Tony and his gang to lose all their money. Back in the Bowery, Sach is surprised to find the disenfranchised devil working as a busboy at Mike's. After the devil tells him that he can regain his "horns" by securing new clients, Sach directs him towards the bookies

Sach and the Boys are hired to cross the Atlantic as the escort of a pedigree poodle. Unbeknownst to the boys, the poodle is carrying a fortune in gems and is pursued by Scotland yard and gangsters.
    Delivery boy Sach meets wealthy sophisticate Don Clark while making a delivery at a travel agency and is surprised when Clark sets up a meeting with him later that day. At the meeting, Clark introduces Sach to his partners British Drake Cummings and sexy blonde Babs, then offers Sach $2,800 in advance if he will accept the job of escorting Gloria, a valuable standard poodle, to London. When Sach is incredulous, Clark explains that he and the others fears dognappers might kidnap the prize-winning Gloria.
    Unknown to Sach, Clark and the others are members of a diamond ring that plans to use a false piece of fur on the dog to transport their latest shipment. Delirious over the vast sum of money, Sach accepts the job. When Sach tells his friends Duke, Chuck and Blinky about the unusual offer, they mistake Gloria for a gold-digging woman. Determined to protect their friend, Duke and the others arrange to stow away onboard Sach's cruise liner. Meanwhile, Clark, Cummings and Babs order Sach to ignore them during the cruise and never to let Gloria out of his sight. Upon arriving at the boat, Clark and the others are disconcerted to find Scotland Yard Inspector Saunders there. Saunders is onboard to keep tabs on Clark and his gang, whom Scotland Yard has long suspected are behind the diamond smuggling.
    When Sach sees Duke and the boys he leaves Gloria with Saunders in order to greet his friends. Later, when Babs scolds Sach for deserting his charge, Duke and the boys intervene, believing that Babs is the gold-digging Gloria. The crossing is uneventful, but as the ship nears London, Duke convinces Sach to turn over Gloria to Clark as soon as possible so they can enjoy their vacation. Against orders, Sach takes Gloria to Clark's cabin where he interrupts an interrogation by Saunders. To allay Sach's suspicions, Clark makes him understand that Saunders is a notorious dognapper. Fond of Gloria, Sach spirits her away, agreeing to meet the gang in a London hotel after they dock. When the boys settle into their hotel room, Sach worries about Gloria's lethargy and decides to take her to a local veterinarian, Dr. Rufus Smedley, who recommends an x-ray.
    While Sach and the boys wait for the results, Sach sees Saunders and his partner, Inspector White, watching the building, and believing they intend to abduct Gloria, flees before Smedley's return. When Smedley realizes Sach has fled, he steps outside to look for them and meets Saunders who questions him. Smedley tells the inspector that the x-ray revealed a large stash of diamonds and jewels packed into Gloria's fur. Convinced that Sach is the crime ring mastermind, Saunders and White pursue him. At the hotel, when Sach leaves the room to phone Scotland Yard to report Saunders, Gloria wanders out. When Clark and Cummings come to claim Gloria, Sach realizes with horror, that the dog has vanished. After Saunders and White arrive, Sach and the boys knock them out and tie them up, then call the police for assistance.
    When the police arrive and the boys realize their error, they flee in fright, running to separate floors to continue their search for Gloria. Saunders chases Sach into a guest's room, where he mistakes her large poodle for Gloria. Sach escapes out the window onto the building ledge and climbs into another room. Sach rejoins Duke, Chuck and Blinky in the hall where they find a trail of diamonds leading them to Gloria just as Saunders arrives to arrest them. Clark and his gang then surround the group and at gun point, demand the diamonds. When Duke kicks Clark's gun away, Sach catches it and turns it over the Saunders. After the arrest of Clark's gang, Scotland Yard honors Sach and the boys for smashing the smuggling ring and Sach shares Gloria's prize of a bone.
