Lola Marcel, the Singing Nightingale: Tell me, tell me about my dear, dear Daddy! Is it true that he's dead?
Stan: Well, we hope he is, they buried him.
Oliver: A lot of weather we've been having lately.
Oliver: Well, fan my brow! I'm from the South.
Mary Roberts: You are?
Stan: Well, shut my mouth! I'm from the South too.
Oliver: The South of what, sir?
Stan: The South of London.
Revealing mistake: Stan is using a block and tackle to hoist Ollie up to the balcony of Finn's apartment. When Stan lets go of the rope, Ollie falls and lands flat on his back. It is obvious by the awkward angle of the legs that a dummy was used. In addition, the dummy lands with the legs close together but in the shot that follows, Ollie's legs are far apart and one leg is in the air.
Trivia: When the Avalon Boys sing "At the Ball, That's All" outside Mickey Finn's Palace, Stan and Oliver perform a dance. This dance was not in the script; it was completely improvised by Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy.
