Featuring Shemp Howard (Solo)
19.4 min. (Short Subject)
Two jerks are assistants on Mr. Smith's archealogical dig for the mummy of King Phooey. Shemp learns that the mummy will be displayed in Smith's hotel room, and he disguises himself as Phooey in an attempt to be near Mary, Smith's daughter. Phooey's cult worshippers retrieve the mummy (Shemp), and when Harry learns that the Egyptian cult will honor Phooey with a month of food and women, he jockies to take Shemp's place. Unknown to both, after one month, the mummy will be reburied where it can never be found again.
Sheldon Leonard costars as Abdullah, Smith's Egyptian guide with a decidedly Brooklyn accent.
