Shemp Howard plays a timid prizefighter whose weird phobia forces him to only summon the courage to fight after hearing the tune “Pop Goes the Weasel.” Throughout the slap‑slapstick Columbia All‑Star Comedy he encounters the melody in a series of outlandish situations, finally hearing it enough to rally and claim the championship bout.
