Decked out in leis and strumming ukeleles, they return home only to learn that the ship supposedly carrying them has sunk.

Trivia: There are 6 entries in the trivia list - like these:
- The role of Stan Laurels wife was originally slated for Patsy Kelly, but Hal Roach had loaned her to MGM for Going Hollywood (1933), which was running over schedule when shooting for this film began. Dorothy Christy joined the cast as Stans wife four days into filming.
- Lillian DeBorba was drafted into filling a seat in the theatre sequence. She was on the lot with her little daughter Dorothy DeBorba who was "Echo" in the Our Gang comedies.
- The "Sons of the Desert" theme song is a pastiche of several popular tunes, including "Give My Regards to Broadway."
