However, her spouse, Arthur, elects to embark on a fishing expedition, leaving her to contend with the prospect of attending the event unaccompanied. Faced with this predicament, Muriel instructs her maid to enlist the services of the Acme Escort Service to procure suitable companions, purportedly of collegiate demeanor. Regrettably, an inadvertent miscue transpires, resulting in a communication with the Acme Exterminator Co., overseen by the Stooges. </p><p>The Stooges, engrossed in the pursuit of innovative methods for rodent eradication, inadvertently accept the commission, ignorant of its true nature. Clad in formal attire, they arrive at the opulent abode amidst a gathering of distinguished guests, laboring under the misconception that their role is to cleanse the premises of vermin. However, upon being apprised of the commencement of the repast, the Stooges, accustomed to the hospitality afforded at such affairs, hasten to partake in the banquet, much to the consternation of the assembled company, who are aghast at their disregard for decorum. </p><p>Following the meal, as musical accompaniment ensues, the Stooges, seizing an opportunity for performance, unwittingly disrupt the proceedings with their antics, culminating in a calamitous altercation involving a saw, leading to the release of rodents and ensuing chaos. Recognizing the exigency of their task, the Stooges undertake earnest efforts to fulfill their perceived duty, albeit with calamitous consequences, inadvertently causing structural damage to the domicile and inadvertently injuring Muriel. </p><p>Upon Arthur's return, wielding a gopher bomb, he confronts the chaos unfolding before him. As the Stooges hastily attempt to flee in their automobile, Arthur's decisive action leads to the gopher bomb finding its way into their vehicle just as they step inside, precipitating a chaotic and disordered dispersal of the Stooges. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Termites_of_1938&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Credited">Credited</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Termites_of_1938&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Credited"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Moe_Howard" title="Moe Howard">Moe Howard</a> as Moe</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Larry_Fine" title="Larry Fine">Larry Fine</a> as Larry</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Curly_Howard" title="Curly Howard">Curly Howard</a> as Curly</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Uncredited">Uncredited</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Termites_of_1938&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Uncredited"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Bess_Flowers" title="Bess Flowers">Bess Flowers</a> as Muriel Van Twitchell</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Etta_McDaniel" title="Etta McDaniel">Etta McDaniel</a> as Mandy - The Maid</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Bud_Jamison" title="Bud Jamison">Bud Jamison</a> as Lord Wafflebottom</li> <li><a href="/wiki/John_Ince_(actor)" title="John Ince (actor)">John Ince</a> as Clayhammer</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Edward_Peil_Sr." title="Edward Peil Sr.">Edward Peil Sr.</a> as 2nd Butler</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Jules_Cowles" title="Jules Cowles">Jules Cowles</a> as 3rd Butler</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Dorothy_Granger" title="Dorothy Granger">Dorothy Granger</a> as Mabel Sturgeon</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Symona_Boniface" title="Symona Boniface">Symona Boniface</a> as Party Guest</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Carlton_Griffin" title="Carlton Griffin">Carlton Griffin</a> as Party Guest</li> <li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Delos_Jewkes&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Delos Jewkes (page does not exist)">Delos Jewkes</a> as Party Guest</li> <li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Kay_Valon&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Kay Valon (page does not exist)">Kay Valon</a> as Tall Blonde Guest</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Lew_Davis" title="Lew Davis">Lew Davis</a> as Party Guest</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Helen_Davis" title="Helen Davis">Helen Davis</a> as Party Guest</li> <li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Beatrice_Blinn&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Beatrice Blinn (page does not exist)">Beatrice Blinn</a> as Party Guest</li> <li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Helen_Godwin&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Helen Godwin (page does not exist)">Helen Godwin</a> as Party Guest</li></ul> <p>Note: <a href="/wiki/IMDB" class="mw-redirect" title="IMDB">IMDB</a> lists <a href="/wiki/Richard_Fiske" title="Richard Fiske">Richard Fiske</a> as Arthur Van Twitchell, but it is not Fisk, the role is played by an unidentified actor. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Production_notes">Production notes</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Termites_of_1938&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Production notes"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><i>Termites of 1938</i> was filmed on October 19–23, 1937.<sup id="cite_ref-pauley_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-pauley-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The film's title is a parody of the film title <i><a href="/wiki/Gold_Diggers_of_1937" title="Gold Diggers of 1937">Gold Diggers of 1937</a></i>.<sup id="cite_ref-solo_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-solo-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The film has two musical quirks unusual for Stooge shorts.
