Our Gang member Billy "Buckwheat" Thomas has told so many lies that no one believes his claim of seeing a marauding monkey in a nearby "haunted" house. This time, however, Buckwheat is telling the truth: The monkey, a harmless circus escapee, is indeed wandering the corridors of the abandoned structure. But the kids don't know that, and when they decide to teach Buckwheat a lesson by disguising Billy "Froggy" Laughlin as a chimp, it is they who end up scared witless. Don't Lie was originally released on April 4, 1942.
