Ep 4. Three Little Pigskins

The Three Stooges Collection season 1 episode 4 is titled Three Little Pigskins. The episode begins with the three stooges, Moe, Larry and Curly who are working as gas pump attendants at the Gridiron Gas Station. One day, a man named Mr. Morgan comes in and asks them if they want to play football for his college. The stooges, who are always looking for a way to make a quick buck, agree to play for the college as long as they get paid.

They arrive at the college and meet the coach, who is amazed at how small they are. He assumes they are water boys, but they correct him and tell him that they are there to play. The coach is skeptical, but he decides to give them a chance. He tells them that the only way they can play is if they beat the rival team, which is led by the millionaire Thelwell. Thelwell is a big, strong, and athletic man who is the star player of the rival team.

The stooges play as poorly as expected, and they lose badly. However, Mr. Morgan still thinks they have the potential to win the game and decides to train them personally. He makes them do a series of intense drills and exercises to improve their speed and agility.

The stooges train hard, but things don't go as planned. During one of their training sessions, they get caught up in a fight with some of Thelwell's men. They end up getting arrested and spend the night in jail. The next day, they are released and continue their training, but they are now more determined than ever to win the game.

On the day of the game, the stooges are ready. They are still the underdogs, but they have a fighting spirit that cannot be denied. They surprise everyone by scoring the first touchdown of the game. Thelwell and his team are shocked and worried. They realize that the stooges are better than they thought.

The rest of the game is an intense battle between the two teams. The stooges continue to play with heart and determination, while Thelwell and his team resort to dirty tricks and unsportsmanlike behavior. In the end, the stooges come out on top and win the game.

The episode ends with the stooges celebrating their victory. They receive a large amount of money as a reward, which they use to buy a new car. They drive off as happy as can be, knowing that they had achieved something great.

Overall, Three Little Pigskins is a classic episode of the Three Stooges that showcases their humor, physical comedy, and loveable personalities. It is a must-watch for fans of the series and a great starting point for those who are just discovering the stooges for the first time.
