Get the chart ready. You're going to need it to try to figure out who is who.

This is probably one of the most convoluted B Universal musicals, dealing with three girls Sheila Ryan, Paula Drew, Lita Baron) and two twin brothers (Fred Brady, with a surprise added later on) involved in putting on a radio show and dealing with the romantic complications caused by the confusion. It isn&#39;t only the three girls and the family of one of theirs who will be confused. It&#39;s going to be the audience as well. But in the meantime, you got a nice little explanation of all the different kinds of kissing throughout history as well as a variety of specialty numbers that are pleasant in a dated sense.<br/><br/>There is also a magician waiter that provide some very funny gags including an elegant dish that turns into croaking frogs, a harpy aunt (Anne O&#39;Neal) who walks around with a baby duckling in her hand, forgetting it&#39;s there, and getting applause from a random seal who appears out of nowhere. What happens to the magician, seemingly unimportant character in the first 15 minutes, is never explained. Walter Catlett, an able comic, text over a role obviously meant for Leon Errol, bringing on different types of laughs. The result is a two reel short padded out to an hour with an obscure cast that ends up being pretty forgettable right off, that is if you don&#39;t have a headache afterwards from simply trying to figure it all out.
