Larry, Moe, and Shemp are bumbling waiters in Cafe Casbahbah. Hassan Ben Sober and Ginna Rumma are customers. The two are thieves trying to steal the diamond from the tomb of King Rootintootin. There is a curse on the jewel and they try to trick the Stooges to do the dirty work. Before that happens, they get a note that Emir of Shmow has already grab the diamond. The boys figure to steal it back for the reward while dressed as Santa Claus.
Petting the hot dogs is pure comedic genius. I would be happier to have the whole short be the boys trying to serve the food to their customers. A more daring comedic attempt would have no plot. It's funnier to be about nothing. The other stuff is fine but the map scene is way too long. It's trying to show the hilarity of the countries in the map but it's not that funny. I want more of the hot dogs.
