[edit] Plot
Jimmy Durante is an actor playing "Snarzzan the Conqueror" at the cinema. The public is tiring of Jimmy fighting fake lions. Baron Munchausen is holding a party in Hollywood with lions and Jimmy wants to buy them off him. Jimmy wakes up on his couch, it has all been a dream.
[edit] Laurel and Hardy cameo
Stan and Ollie appear at the door while the party is happening. They sold the lions to Baron Munchausen and he paid with a cheque for 50,000 tiddlywinks and they want the lions back. The doorman refuses them entry so they lock him out and go looking for the Baron. Stan and Ollie can't find the Baron and end up at a bar. At the bar Lupe Velez has been refused another drink and she screams her displeasure. They have a classic tit for tat argument with eggs. The doorman spots Stan and Ollie and gives chase. They end up outside and release the lions.
