Daylight saving time doesn’t actually benefit anyone. Strangely, it’s still observed in seventy countries around the world.

Talk show host Seth Meyers delivers a comedic monologue based on the biggest stories from that week’s news on Late Night with Seth Meyers.

Latin Quarter is a British band combining pop, reggae and folk rock, well known for their political and social protest songs. The most successful of these is “Radio Africa”, which has been reissued several times and has neared the top of the charts in many countries.

Laurel and Hardy were a comedy double act during the early classical Hollywood era of American cinema. The team was composed of thin Englishman Stan Laurel (1890–1965) and heavyset American Oliver Hardy (1892–1957). They became well known during the late 1920s through the mid-1940s for their slapstick comedy. In this segment, they find themselves stranded in the middle of nowhere without any gas. As Ollie says, a wartime C-Card (a card reserved for people essential to the war effort) wouldn't be of any use.

Traveling musicians Stan and Oliver think they really might be stranded, a stranger comes along with exactly the right thing to help.

Stan and Oliver get caught up in con — selling the “Little Wonder Gas Pill,” an answer to gas rationing.

The Little Wonder Gas Pills sell like hotcakes in Midvale but a customer's displeasure forces Stan, Oliver, and Mr. Wright to make a hasty getaway. There's also a stowaway in the trailer.

Chester Wright and Susan Cowan return to Midvale and pay a visit to the lawyer who was unwittingly caught up in the flimflam. Wright hatches a plan to right the wrong, a larcenous plan at that.

Wright's elaborate plan to get the money back from Corcoran, the swindler who cheated Susan's mother, is set into action. "Kale," "mazuma," "moola," "lettuce," and "hay" are some of the slang words for money that the characters use in this segment.

Dorcas feigns a fainting spell and lures Stan into her hotel room. She suggests they have a Sazerac, a New Orleans cocktail made with either rye whiskey or cognac, together with water, sugar, bitters and absinthe.

Oliver and Dorcas get acquainted in the hotel room while Stan hides under the furniture. Susan worries that Chester may double-cross her, and Chester does seem to be plotting something.

Mary Lou and Oliver dance about the hotel room and are interrupted by her husband.

Oliver pretends that he's the Sheriff from Midvale County when he confronts Mary Lou's husband about the swindling of Mrs. Audrey Cowan. From under the chaise lounge, Stan saves the day.

Susan rehearses at the riverboat nightclub, singing “I've Gotta See for Myself” about “the will-o-the-wisp they call love.” A will-o-the wisp is something that is ghost-like and elusive. Vivian Blaine, who plays Susan Cowan, went on to star in the debut of Guys and Dolls on Broadway.

Stan loses at poker and is asked to play a role that he has misgivings about. However, with some coaching from Oliver, Stan admirably rises to the occasion.
