context: It is nearing the end of a school day and the gang see's a muscial circus truck ride bye with a clown jumping around, the circus is only for the next one day only which is going to be a school day. Spanky wrote a phony doctor's note that have very bad colds and can't come to school, Buckwheat and Porky placed it on Miss Jones' desk so she'll see it the next morning. Spanky and Alfafa pretend to sneeze, Miss Jones is a nice teacher, who is concerned that if they have colds and won't be able to come to the circus with the rest of the class which she had bought tickets earlier. She hopes that they get better and goes home. Spanky and Alfafa, both are surprised then remembers about the note and runs get to get it back but the school-room door is locked, Spanky and Alfafa goes to over to the basement window knocks on it, and Sam the janitor, who also lives there, Spanky asks him to unlock the door for them but Sam replies, " No suh, when this school am locked, she's official locked." Spanky then has another idea, which would have them come back later during the over-night hours while Sam, the school janitor is asleep.The night is stormy, with rain and thunder, which makes it very scary, Buckwheat is the lookout for them standing outside, he steps on a noisemaker and see's an owl, he then runs back inside the school, they see a spook coming towards them but it was only Porky under a bedsheet, the other three continue to look for the note in the darkness, then the thunderstorm knocks out the lights & power. Porky goes into the Janitor Supply Room and breaks lightbulbs, this wakes Sam up in the basement and he heads upstairs, the gang sees him looking out of the basement door and hides, three are under Miss Jones' desk and Buckwheat is in the room where the lightbulbs, broke earlier. Sam comes out of the basement standing in the classroom in the dark wearing a nightshirt and nightcap, Buckwheat was hiding behind some curtains and a skeleton was clinging to his back. Buckwheat runs past Sam with the skeleton, which made Sam's nightcap stand up on one end in extremely deep fear, and seeing Buckwheat and the skeleton coming back toward him, Sam then screams & raises his arms in deep fear and runs away, right through the door of the schoolhouse. The gang finally find the fraud note page, then they leave the school building out the cutout of the door that Sam made (as he ran away) which earlier they went inside by the window. Sam runs out of the school who was lying on the rug with the skeleton beside him, out in the raging storm. The gang got sick over night and couldn't go to school and the circus and each student's mother telling their son or daughter, that they can't go to school that specific day as they are taking a cold medicine syrup and recovering from the cold they got, the night before.
