Opis filmu

Opis oryginalny: angielski

Clark and McCullogh, come to a Samoan temple where all the beautiful maidens are kept. They trick the guard at the door get inside, heedless of a death threat. Inside, they meet the tribal chief's daughter (Lois Moran), and Clark flirts with her a bit, then all run upstage. Another set is revealed, and a troupe of (real) Polynesian natives (Filoi and Her Samoan Dancers) do their stuff, first a Hula dancer, then a men's precision sword-tossing routine. The Chief appears with soldiers, holding the boys for invading their temple, and prepares a chopping block. The Chief's daughter, begs if she could have them as a Christmas presents, and they are spared. Then, she sings "My Samoa", with a bevy of chorus girls behind her. As the number finishes, a full shot of the stage has the boys run back and all line up for the ending, looking, perhaps intentionally, like the finale in a stage show.
