The Stooges have been taking care of Mary, their downstairs neighbor who is confined to a wheelchair. The boys have jobs hanging posters at a theatre featuring The Great Svengarlic, a famous hypnotist. Svengarlic is also the leader of a gang of jewel thieves, who plan to rob an office building next door to the theatre. What Svengarlic needs are some dupes who will help him put on a public exhibition, distracting everyone from his gang's robbery. Enter the Stooges, who ask Svengarlic to cure Mary, but instead are hypnotized, and instructed to go out on a flagpole and dance many stories above the street. Svengarlic is knocked unconcious in an accident, and the Stooges awake to find themselves clinging to the flagpole for dear life. 1956
