Amidst the economic turmoil of the Great Depression, the Stooges, facing dire unemployment, embark on a desperate quest for livelihood.
In a bid to evade capture, the Stooges seek refuge within the confines of an art school, where their presence is misconstrued as that of aspiring artists.
Taking advantage of the serendipitous disguise, they reluctantly partake in impromptu art lessons while clandestinely evading detection by the persistent law enforcement officer.
The ensuing chaos culminates in a riotous clay fight, wherein the trio, alongside their unwitting classmates, engage in a frenzied battle of artistic proportions, sparing no participant from the whimsical onslaught.
As the tumultuous clay fight reaches its climax, the arrival of irate art students serves as a denouement, with the Stooges bearing the brunt of the ensuing physical altercation.
