Booby Dupes background

Booby Dupes

Three fish peddlers, determined to cut out the middleman, catch their own fish, but their decision backfires when they trade their car and $300 for a dilapidated boat that quickly falls apart and sinks.

Three fishmongers abandon their car and $300 to buy a dilapidated boat, which promptly breaks down and sinks at sea. The trio escapes in a rowboat, attempting to signal passing planes for rescue, but their makeshift flag is misinterpreted as a Japanese banner, leading to an aerial bombing.
