Slapstick Comedyt
Shemp is a music teacher navigating the affections of his unattractive and musically challenged student, Miss Dinkelmeyer, while Larry serves as his musical accompanist.
Moe then interrupts Shemp's classroom session with news of his uncle Caleb's demise, provoking Shemp's initial disparagement of his late relative.
However, Shemp's demeanor swiftly shifts upon learning of his unexpected inheritance of $500,000, prompting a sudden change in his disposition towards his deceased uncle. However, Shemp's windfall comes with a caveat: he must marry within a mere 48-hour window to claim his newfound wealth.
Faced with the urgent need for a bride, Shemp frantically reaches out to various acquaintances in his address book, proposing to multiple women in a desperate bid to meet the stipulated deadline.
However, his attempts prove futile, leading to a series of calamitous misadventures orchestrated by Moe and Larry, including the inadvertent engagement to Miss Dinkelmeyer and encounters with aggressive ex-girlfriends eager to capitalize on Shemp's newfound fortune.
As the wedding ceremony ensues, chaos erupts as the multitude of prospective brides converge upon the justice's office, igniting a frenzied melee of physical altercations. Moe and Larry find themselves ensnared in the escalating turmoil, enduring blows and comedic mishaps amidst the tumultuous pursuit of matrimony.
Despite the pandemonium, Shemp ultimately seals his union with Miss Dinkelmeyer, securing his inheritance just in time. (Wikipedia)
