Synopsis
Friendly neighborhood policeman Kennedy the Cop (Edgar Kennedy) warns the gang to stay away from an old abandoned house in the neighborhood. Instead, he suggests the kids go dig for buried treasure, which they proceed to do—in the basement of the old abandoned house. The house is inhabited by a homeless lunatic (played by Jewish comedian Max Davidson in a rare, mostly non-ethnic role), who takes giddy delight in scaring the children, particularly Farina. Kennedy eventually turns up at the house to save the kids and apprehend the lunatic, but can hardly take care of himself.
Notes
- Moan and Groan, Inc. features a short appearance by former Our Gang kid Jay R. Smith, his only appearance in a sound Our Gang short and his final appearance in the series.
- Because of its reliance upon Irish American, Jewish American and African American stereotypes, Moan and Groan, Inc. was deleted from King World's Little Rascals television package in 1971.
