The story

thumb|thumbtime=20|The Hoose-Gow (1929) Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy find themselves embroiled in a comedic misadventure upon their arrival as new inmates at a prison, purportedly implicated in a prohibition raid, an assertion they vehemently deny to a prison officer, claiming mere bystander status. During their initial encounter with the prison guard, the duo's attempt to communicate with friends beyond the prison wall results in the unexpected appearance of a rope ladder. Seizing the opportunity for escape, their cohorts hastily retreat, leaving Stan and Ollie stranded outside when the guard inadvertently shuts the door on them.
