 This was the first Abbott and Costello feature in which they did not  play a team. The story centers on Lou Costello (qv)s character  while Bud Abbott (qv) does not appear until 16 minutes into the  film. This was because the two were in the midst of a terrific feud  and did not speak to each other outside of the film. The two do not  share a scene until 20 minutes into the picture.
