He Cooked His Goose is the 140th short subject starring American slapstick comedy team the Three Stooges. The trio made a total of 190 shorts for Columbia Pictures between 1934 and 1959.

Plot

The Stooge are separate characters in this short. Larry is a womanizer who is having an affair with Moe's wife. At the same time, he is also making eyes at Shemp's fiancee, Millie (Angela Stevens), as well. Moe, however, trakcs down the conniving Larry at his pet shop, and gives him the works before Larry calms him down. Realizing he needs to cover his tracks, Larry looks for a "fall guy" in the form of Shemp. Larry them gets Shemp a job as an underwear salesman and the first place he goes is Moe's home. While Shemp is modeling his ware, Larry lies to Moe about Shemp's advances on Millie. Both of them go storming over to Moe's, while Shemp flees up the chimney. After making a quiet getaway, Shemp bumps into Larry, and turns him in.

Notes

  • He Cooked His Goose was reworked in 1959 as Triple Crossed, using ample recycled footage from the original.
