Summary

The family jewels: When a poor little rich girl is suddenly orphaned, one of her six wacky uncles - all played by Jerry Lewis - will be selected as her guardian. The nine-year-old heiress gets to decide which uncle would be the ideal candidate to take her in, but the selectioon process won't be easy.

The stooge: Bill Miller, a struggling vaudeville singer in the '30's finds sudden success when he teams up with a fall-down-funny comedian, Ted Rogers. But as their success grows, so does Miller's ego. When he suddenly fires Rogers, he gets a tough lesson in the hard knocks of showbiz - realizing that his ex-partner wasn't just a "stooge," he was part of the act's great success.
