Love At First Bite Short Take

Moe, Larry, and Shemp reminisce about the sweethearts that they met in
Europe during the war, who are coming to the States to marry them.
Toasting their good fortune with some Old Panther (Distilled Yesterday),
the boys wind up sozzled, leading to a seltzer fight and a hungover
morning that finds Shemp’s feet encased in a tub of cement. If they hope
to meet the girls’ boat, there’s only one thing left to do… blast!
