Directed by: James Parrott
Starring: Oliver Hardy, Stan Laurel, Chet Brandenburg, Ed Brandenburg
Revealing mistake: When Stan and Oliver are working with the road gang, Oliver's hat falls off and Stan impales it with his pick. When Stan moves Oliver's hat around, you can see holes in the hat from previous takes.
Revealing mistake: When the governor and warden reverse the car back into the paint truck at the end of the film, watch carefully and you can see the two barrels of whitewash tip over before the impact.
Continuity mistake: When the warden sees Stan and Oliver with apples in an attempt to escape from prison, he goes over to them and you see that he is going to see Stan first, but in the end he sees Oliver.
Trivia: The prison in this film is the same one that was used in a previous Laurel and Hardy short, "The Second Hundred Years" (1927).
