Partly Cloudy Filming Locations

Musty holds down a job in Mole and Kittleton's dime museum. Musty seems to be the sole employee about the place, and whatever is called for by any of the patrons, he has to supply it. He is placed in charge of the cane rack, and of course, cheats so that the customers get no canes. One irascible old fellow complains to the manager, who upbraids Musty for his dishonesty. As soon as the customer leaves the manager congratulates himself on having so business-like an employee. While Musty is engaged in an innocent flirtation, a lad with a ten-foot arm approaches the rack and deliberately places rings over all the canes to which are attached the most handsome prizes. The boss is so incensed at Musty's carelessness that he forces him to stand up against the wall while he practices hatchet throwing, with Musty as the target. The idea of this pastime is to come as close to the target as possible without hitting, and the Boss's hatchet doesn't miss the target. The Arabian Knife Propeller appears on the scene and throws two dozen knives at Musty all at once. The blades stick in the wall so close to Musty as to form the outline of his anatomy against the background. Then Musty is called upon to operate the machine in the moving picture theater. He does so in a unique manner, having much trouble with the film, which insists upon unrolling, tying itself into knots, etc. Musty finds a way out which is satisfactory enough to him, but goes to sleep and the audience walks out after heaping their scorn upon the sleeper's head. Awakening, Musty feels the need of recreation and goes in for some more or less violent exercise with a punching bag. The results are not satisfactory, for in swinging at the bag, Musty collides with the boss, who has suddenly entered the room. His next occupation is "bally-hooing" to attract patrons to throw baseballs at the dodging figure. He gets along fairly well at this until a rough customer uses a brick instead of a ball, placing the poor Ethiopian hors de combat. When the boss complains that this is the fourth one he has lost in a single week and selects Musty to take his place, our hero faints.
