This results in a physical upheaval as the bed, manipulated by the rope, spins horizontally, prompting the trio's dislodgement. Curly then receives a letter from the Inventors' Association, wherein his invention, the Gold Collar Button Retriever, is deemed "incomprehensible and utterly impractical." Curly, misconstruing this assessment as validation, interprets it as a harbinger of success, prompting the trio to depart from their maternal abode in pursuit of fortune.
