Their focus is momentarily diverted when Shemp introduces the pickpocket Slick Chick, who adeptly eludes the confines of the police station through persuasive rhetoric.
Subsequently, Shemp joins the ongoing gin rummy match, adding another layer of complexity to their activities as they grapple with the challenges posed by an obstinate filing cabinet.
