Lou is so determined too star in the new production of the film about Napoleon and Josephine that he comes to the studio dressed as napoleon. Bud and Lou joke as they compare Lou to the great film lover, Charles Boyer. They talk about Lou’s qualifications to be the lead actor. Bud plays along, and is willing to help with a love scene for Lou to show his stuff in a romantic moment, and they take turns swapping the guy and girl roles. Classic comic moments for sure.
Carl Hoff plays You Got Me Crying Again.
Lou is excited after coming from the studio. Will he actually get the part? After being turned down by the studio, Lou goes on the street to take a poll. First stop is to one of Lou’s old girlfriends, Bessie. Then Mel Blanc puts in a few good words to show support. Scotty Brown, the Scotsman, has a comment on the topic. Mrs Niles swaps insults as Lou tries to gain her support for his film.
Amy Arnelle sings, Give Me a Little Kiss.
Still determined to play Napoleon, Lou announces he’ll do a play. After Mellonhead does a little heckling, he agrees to produce the production. Parts are assigned, and the spoof of a production begins. The play may not resemble the film, or the story, but yu can count on plenty of jokes at every opportunity. No topic is safe from the jokes, anything related to being French, girls, puns, horse races, and more.
