The live-action hypnotist character is not Ko-Ko's usual cartoonist "boss" Max Fleischer, nor occasional "Inkwell Imps" performer Dave Fleischer. Max did not appear in the final batch of Ko-Ko shorts, having left Inkwell Studios in early 1929 after his relationship soured with the studio boss. The hypnotist in this film is one of several uncredited actors who appeared in the shorts that did not feature Max Fleischer.
