Plot

[edit]

Charlie Yuckapuck (Morey Amsterdam) and Annie (Rose Marie) work as a zany cook and waitress at the diner run by Mr. Travis (Richard Deacon), located across from a busy factory, visited by Danny Thomas, Forrest Tucker, Joe Ploski and other celebs in cameos. Meanwhile, the Soviet KEB believes that Charlie is really defecting Soviet cosmonaut Yasha Nudnik, and sends Comrade Olga (Carmen Phillips) et al. to observe him, all members of a spy ring run by Mr. Big (Jack Heller). One day lawyer Crumworth Raines (Moe Howard) arrives and announces to waitress Magda Anders (January Jones) that she has inherited a bookstore at Updike University, causing Charlie and Annie to switch jobs to the bookstore, where undercover U.S. government agent Jim Holliston (Michael Ford) volunteers to help. Features a cameo by Irene Ryan as Granny, and Steve Allen, Milton Berle, and Carl Reiner as bookstore customers. Irene Ryan even drives up with Morey Amsterdam, and Rose Marie in The Beverly Hillbillies, Clampett's 1921  Model 37 Truck, at approximately 18 minutes into the movie. Peggy Mondo, Cliff Arquette, and Nick Adams have cameos as KEB agents. Tim Herbert plays Samu, "Fastest Draw in the East".
