Bank dick: "W.C. Fields is Egbert Souse, a lowly bank guard who divides his time between the Black Pussy Cat Cafe and his dreaded family. His humdrum life changes when fate leads him to heroism.

The hilarious adventures continue as the newlyweds journey to the Last Gasp saloon in this rollicking romp"--Container.
