 The final gag, in which the boys truck slams into the house, was a  misfire. The script called for the truck to drive all the way  through the house, but the carpenters had not built the house to  property man Thomas Benton Roberts (qv) specifications, so the  truck was unable to penetrate it completely. Rather than rebuild the  house for one gag, the cast and crew chose to keep the end gag as  filmed.
