Uncle Joe Comedy Short (1910)
A husband fakes a note from his sick uncle, who then turns up.

One day, the three self-described Teen Angels, Brenda (brunette), Dee Dee (African-American) and Taffy (blond) found a caveman encased within a prehistoric block of glacial ice, and they set him free. Turns out, their newfound companion came in handy when they needed muscle while solving mysteries.

The Captain gets a life insurance policy and gives it to his wife. In gratitude she makes him a pie. The Katzenjammer Kids play a trick on the Captain.

Two silky-smooth producers line up a potential backer (who’ll put up half the cash) for a musical review. The catch is that they must find someone else to put up the other half. Enter cigar-smoking cross-dresser “Bumpsie” (Tim Moore), who poses as a wealthy society matron to fool the angel! Features vintage jam sessions with swing drummer Gene Krupa, Big Sid Catlett and his band, The Slam Stewart Trio and The International Jitterbugs.
