Abbott And Costello - Hit The Ice/Lost In Alaska
Hit The Ice: Flash Fulton (Bud Abbott) and Weejie McCoy (Lou Costello) take pictures of a bank robbery. Lured to the mountain resort hideout of the robbers and accompanied by Dr. Bill Elliott (Patric Knowles) and Peggy Osborn (Elyse Knox), they also meet old friend Johnny Long (Himself) and his band and singer Marcia Manning (Ginny Simms). Dr. Elliott and Peggy are being held in a remote cabin by the robbers, but Weejie rescues them by turning himself into a human snowball that becomes an avalanche that engulfs the crooks. Lost in Alaska: In the 1890s, San Francisco firemen Tom Watson (Bud Abbott) and George Bell (Lou Costello) befriend millionaire gold prospector 'Nugget' Joe McDermott (Tom Ewell) after preventing him from committing suicide. Through a series of mishaps, the inept duo are forced to accompany Joe back to Alaska - where he intends to pursue his former love Rosette - and find that they have their hands full trying to save him from his goldmine 'buddies', who stand to inherit Joe's fortune when he dies.
