"From Dead Ends to the East Side and finally landing in Louie's Sweet Shop in the heart of the Bowery (3rd and Canal, natch!), there was no stopping these Boys! When understudy Leo Gorcey joined the ensemble of teen thespians on stage for the Broadway hit 'Dead End', Hollywood soon followed with William Wyler taking the troupe in toto for 1937's film version. Personifying the grit and heart of the kid gangs sprouting up in city slums, these little wise guys quickly stole the nation's heart. Ably anchored by the central pair of Huntz Hall and Leo Gorcey, the kids moved from 'preachment' and crime pictures to straight up comedy as The Bowery Boys - and the rest is history as the boys capered through scores of pictures for over two decades!" -- Container.
Master minds: Sach plus a toothache results in Sach's ability to predict the future. A mad scientist decides that he needs Sach's brain for his monster Atlas.
Blonde dynamite: Louie goes on vacation to Coney Island and in his absence, the boys turn his Sweet Shop into their own escort service, Slip's latest get-rich-quick scheme. Meanwhile, Gabe, now working at a bank, is being blackmailed by some shady characters into giving them the combination to the vault.
Lucky losers: The Bowery Boys invade the casino business to investigate the suicide of their stock broker friend.
