One of the good things about the Stooges shorts was the topicality and this one does reflect the postwar era and its challenges.
The boys return from the service to find their girl friends dispossessed and living quarters impossible to find. The best part of the film shows their making do setting up housekeeping in someone's back yard. Top gags include the egg scene and of course the parrot within the goose. That particular scene reminded me of an Abbott and Costello scene with Costello trying to eat a catfish unknowing of a cat under the table which squawked every time he stuck a fork into the fish.
Be that as it may, this is a good followup to the wartime shorts.
