The Chimp is a Laurel and Hardy short film made in 1932. It was directed by James Parrott, produced by Hal Roach and distributed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

In lieu of back wages, the defunct circus the Stanley and Oliver have been working for pay them off with a flea circus and a trained chimpanzee named "Ethyl." Unfortunately, that's also the name of their landlord's wife, and after the boys sneak the ape into their room, the jealous man draws some unfortunate conclusions when he overhears Oliver ordering Ethyl to "come to bed."
