<P> Panic - stricken, knowing their wives will know right away they never went to Honolulu and likely do them grievous bodily harm, they prepare to go to a hotel to spend the night, only to catch sight of their wives returning back home . They end up take refuge hastily in the attic and, as they can't escape, decide to camp out there . Meanwhile, the wives go to the cinema to calm their rattled nerves...and what should they see but a newsreel of the convention in which their husbands act like complete hams for the cameras! Furious at being deceived, they blame one another's wayward spouses, while Betty, knowing Stan lied for the first time ever to her, is still confident he will atone and confess, more than Oliver will do . That outrages Lottie to the point of proposing a challenge to see whose husband is the truthful one . As for the husbands, their camping in the attic starts out smoothly enough but is interrupted loudly enough as to attract the attention of the wives (prompting Betty, who suspects burglars, to investigate with her shotgun) and they manage to flee out of sight, escaping to the rooftop . When they cannot get back in, Oliver sees this as their opportunity to follow their original plan of going to a hotel to pass the night . Stan, however, wants to go back home and confess to his wife but Oliver threatens, "If you go downstairs and spill the beans, I'll tell Betty that I caught you smoking a cigarette!" </P> <P> They are about to make their way to a hotel to spend the night, but are stopped by a policeman who manages to get their home addresses from them thanks to Stan . The wives notice them coming, but while Lottie is all for shooting them the moment they walk through the door, Betty reminds her of their little argument that needs to be settled . Upon walking into the house, they tell the wives about the shipwreck . Then, when asked about how the pair of them had managed to get home a day before the rescue ship carrying the survivors was due, their story begins to unravel; they say they jumped ship and "ship - hiked" their way home . Then Lottie looks Oliver in the eye and asks him if his story is the truth . He insists it is; "It's too farfetched not to be the truth!" Then Betty asks Stan if Oliver's story is true . After a long silence Stan eventually breaks down and tearfully confesses them going to the convention, despite Oliver's previously mentioned threat . Betty picks up her shotgun while Stan continues whimpering and ominously says to her husband "Come along, Stanley .", highly implying that she is going to shoot him once they get home . After they leave, Oliver is left to face his wife's wrath at being made a fool of twice by him, and after failed attempts to charm her with babyish mannerisms, audaciously suggests going on the mountain trip they arranged in the first place - the last straw . Watched by her bemused husband, she empties the kitchen cupboards, piling up crockery . Meanwhile, on the Laurel's side of the house, Stan is seen wrapped in a dressing gown on the sofa, sipping wine and eating chocolates, being pampered by Betty, who relays the age old moral to him, "Honesty is the best policy ." Stan agrees happily, as the sounds of hurled pieces of crockery start coming from the Hardy side . Lottie, in a livid frenzy, is throwing pots, pans and dishes at Ollie . After the maelstrom Stan arrives from next - door to compare notes, sees Hardy sitting in the wreckage and tells Ollie that his wife said that "honesty is the best politics!" Stan puffs on a once - forbidden cigarette, and then goes out the door singing "Honolulu Baby". Ollie vengefully hurls a pot at his head, upending him . </P> <P> The fraternal organization seen in the film is styled to resemble the Shriners, known formally as the Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine . </P> <Ul> <Li> Stan Laurel as Stanley </Li> <Li> Oliver Hardy as Oliver </Li> <Li> Charley Chase as Charley </Li> <Li> Mae Busch as Mrs. Lottie Hardy </Li> <Li> Dorothy Christy as Mrs. Betty Laurel </Li> <Li> Lucien Littlefield as the Veterinarian </Li> <Li> Ty Parvis as the sailor in Honolulu Baby song and dance </Li> <Li> Charita as the lead Hawaiian hula dancer (Charita Alden) </Li> </Ul>
