    Where to Watch

The Bowery Boys come to the aid of a woman whose child has been kidnapped. Leo Gorcey. Bananas: Frankie Darro. Gabe: Gabriel Dell. Sach: Huntz Hall. Laura: Anabel Shaw. Burton: Edward Gargan. Gray: John Kellog. Whitney: Billy Benedict. Butch: Bennie Bartlett. Directed by Reginald LeBorg.

Typical witless "Bowery Boys" comedy finds the group running an automatic laundry. Shaw is a young mother whose baby is being held hostage so she can't collect an inheritance. Gorcey, Hall, and company come to her aid. Gorcey has some moments impersonating a foreign psychologist with Hall as his idiot patient, but it's limited humor. Lots of low comedy but little of the melodrama that rounded out the mix the boys are noted for.
