Short Take

The Stooges hold the same positions they held in You Natzy Spy! and are still ruling the country of Moronica. The three cabinet ministers (Vernon Dent, Lynton Brent, and Bud Jamison) who betrayed the King before, have turned good and want to help get rid of Moe Heilstone, his Field Marshall (Curly) and Minister of Propaganda (Larry). The King’s daughter is sent as a spy and gives The Stooges a bomb hidden inside a cue ball. She tricks them into believing the Axis allies are plotting against them, leading to a fight for control of Heilstone’s globe.
