The Stooges find themselves enrolling in an eastern dental school, and despite making a monsterous set of dentures with a life of its own, manage to graduate, with the recommendation to go "out west" to set up practice. Their first customer is tossed out (fortunately for him) when a tough local Sheriff comes in with a toothache. In his nervousness, Shemp drops his dentist manual, and accidentally picks a book titled The Amateur Carpenter instead (not that the Stooges notice for a while.)
