Plot: Having to leave Melbourne in a hurry to avoid various marriage proposals, two song-and-dance men sign on for work as divers. This takes them to an idyllic island on the way to Bali where they vie with each other for the favours of Princess Lala. The hazardous dive produces a chest of priceless jewels which arouses the less romantic interest of some shady locals.
Crazy Credits: We know about 2 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
During the end credits two Japenese Fisherman (who are badly dubbed in English) discover the island all frozen and then start to hear rumbling until they soon find out its "JACKZILLA!" And we see Jacks Giant carrot nose fall and hit their boat and the boat is destroyed.
Goofs: We know about 2 goofs. Here comes one of them:
Continuity: During the opening song and dance number, Hope goes offstage to the left ("stage left"), talks with some people and goes back on stage from the left. But his behind stage shot is clearly on the "stage right" side.
Trivia: There are 2 entries in the trivia list - like these:

Trivia: There are 2 entries in the trivia list - like these:
- This was the only "Road" picture of the seven to be photographed in Technicolor. Ten years later, the British-made "Hong Kong" finale would revert to black and white.
- In her 1980 autobiography, "My Side of the Road," (co-written with Dick McInnes), Dorothy Lamour relates how disappointed she was at not being asked to sing on the Decca album which re-created the film score. In Miss Lamours place, the label recruited an artist under contract, Peggy Lee, to croon the sultry "Moonflowers" and then go upbeat with Bing Crosby and Bob Hope and on "The Merry-Go-Runaround" (both songs having music by Jimmy Van Heusen, lyrics by Johnny Burke).
