In Corny Casanovas, the Three Stooges (Moe, Larry, and Shemp) are trying to clean up their apartment in their traditional destructive, slapstick style.  Some of the best parts of the short are here. Such as the “invention” of firing tacks from a gun in order to reupholster a couch. Only for Moe to take it in the end, Then Shemp and Larry unintentionally cutting Moe’s jacket, etc.   Each of the Stooges is proposing marriage. The second half of the short takes place in the girl’s apartment.  Since unknown to each other, the Three Stooges are all proposing to the same girl!

Connie Cezon plays the blonde gold digger. She has each of the Stooges appear a few minutes apart, and after taking their diamond ring, has each hide in a different room — “I made you a cake!”. And soon enough Moe, Larry and Shemp run into each other, and begin a three-way fight. With Larry actually getting the best of Moe and Shemp letting the other two beat each other senseless. But Connie knocks him out! She leaves the three unconscious Stooges on the floor of her apartment as she walks out.
