****SPOILERS**** The "Bowery Boys" headed by Slip & Sach opened up a detective agency after Sach got popped in the schnoz by little Hurbie, whom he was teaching how to box, that gave him the power of reading peoples minds. With Sach now a walking and talking lie detector who can read the minds of anyone he comes in contact with there's no way his and Slip's detective agency, Eagel Eye Detectives, can't become a smashing success!
What in fact happens is that Sach loses his powers of intuition when he tried to blow up the office safe that he stupidly locked an important envelope, together with the safe's combination, into that client Myra Hagen gave him and Slip for safe keeping. The envelope was an insurance policy to keep Myra from getting knocked off by her boss Prof. Damon who runs the Rose Hill Health Farm outside the city. Myra wan't to quit Damon's criminal fur hijacking racket that his health farm is just a cover for. And the envelope contains dates times and places, as well as names, of all the hijackings of fur trucks that Damon and his fellow hoods were involved in.
Sach's mind reading act, which wasn't all that good to begin with, starts to get a little thin and soon seems to get lost halfway through the movie together with the envelope that Myra gave him. But his getting dressed up in drag,in order to get himself admitted in Damon's health farm, and looking like Lon Cheney in the movie "The Unholy Three", as the rich and a bit nutty Mrs. Abernathy is a laugh a minute that doesn't let up until the movie's over. As for Slip he does his best to keep up with his partner Sach by masquerading around as Sach's or Mrs. Abernathy's personal physician the eminent Dr. Hockenbocker from Vienna but in fact looking more like Mr. Moto.
***MAJOR SPOILERS*** With the beautiful Joyce Holden as Myra Hagen in the film it's hard to concentrate on the plot until the action really starts getting out of control when Damon and his goons discover that both Mrs.Abernathy and Dr. Hockenbocker are working undercover as Sach & Slip to bust their fur counterfeiting racket! There's also the big boss who claims to be the president of the company that insures the stolen furs whom both Slip and Sach trust with their lives! That's until Sach's powers of mind reading suddenly comes back, courtesy of being belated again in the nose by little Hurbie, and discovers just what a phony and lying rat he really is!
P.S Check Emil Sitka as the man in the wheelchair at the health farm in the few scenes that he's in. Sitka in the little time that he's in the film provides far more laughs then Slip Sach as well as fellow "Bowery Boys" Chuck Butch and sweet shop owner Louie Dumbrowsky put together!
