Going Bye Bye!
Going Bye Bye is a 1934 American pre-Code comedy short film starring Laurel and Hardy.
Plot
In a packed courtroom, a judge (Harry Dunkinson) thanks spectators Laurel and Hardy for their crucial testimony in helping to convict Butch Long (Walter Long), a notorious and violent criminal. The judge then sentences Butch to life in prison, which prompts Stan to ask, "Aren't you going to hang him?" Infuriated and confined in a straitjacket, Butch turns to Stan and Ollie and threatens the "squealers", vowing that he will escape prison, find them, "break off" their legs, and "wrap 'em around your necks!" Later, outside the courtroom and in their car, Ollie sarcastically repeats Stan's question to the judge about hanging Butch, noting Long's furious reaction and asking, "Couldn't you see that he was annoyed?"
