[the Stooges all look at a map marked "Walla Walla"]
Moe : Walla Walla with an "X."
Curly : I know! "X" marks the spot where the treasure is buried! It's in the Walla.
Moe : But there's two Wallas.
Curly : Certainly! There's a Walla, and there's a Walla over there.
Larry : Which one's it buried in?
Moe : It makes no difference, we'll each take a Walla.
-
Moe : What's the idea of movin' into our apartment?
Larry : Come on, beat it.
Jimmie : I'm sorry, mister. Sis and I didn't know anyone lived here, so we just moved in, but we'll get out right away.
Curly : [realizing he has a bum leg] Hey, where's your father?
Jimmie : We ain't got no father. Just Sis and I.
Moe : Wait a minute, son. We made a mistake, this ain't our house, we didn't have any curtains. Go on, sit down, do your homework.
Jimmie : Oh, thank you.
-
Moe : There's sixty-two bucks there. How long do we have to wait before it swells to 500?
Bank Teller : Sixty-two dollars?
Moe : Yes, sir.
Bank Teller : [Checking his chart] That'll take you 104 years, six months, and 17 days.
Moe : Oh, we can't wait that long.
Curly : Why not?
-
Jimmie : [Doing his homework] I'm stuck. How much is six and six?
Moe : Well... hey, you help him.
Curly : Six and six? Don't tell me. Two sixes. Hmmm! Boxcars!
Jimmie : Boxcars?
Curly : Yeah, it looks like two lumps of sugar with smallpox. You throw it up against...
Moe : Hey, wait a minute. What are you trying to learn the kid?
-
Moe : Get that big bucket down here. Hurry up.
[Curly drops it down, and it lands on his head]
Moe : I'd murder you if I had you down here.
Curly : But I ain't down there. Nyuck, nyuck. Nyuck, nyuck, nyuck, nyuck.
[Moe yanks on the rope, and Curly falls on top of him and Larry]
Moe : What's the big idea?
Curly : I just dropped in.
Moe : Well, if we knew you was coming, we'd have baked a cake.
[slapping him]
Moe : What's the matter with you?
[as Curly defiantly sticks out his tongue, he dribbles dirt on it]
Moe : How do you like that? Get busy.
-
Moe : [breaking into the U.S. Treasury and flipping through a wad of money] Just right. $500. The rest is profit.
-
Moe : Take this shovel. And remember, we gotta get the money for the kid. Now get busy.
[in the confined space, he gets continuously thwacked by the others]
Moe : Ooh! Ohh! Ow! Ow!
[bonking Curly on the head]
Moe : Oi!
[Larry pokes him in the eye with his shovel handle]
Moe : Ow! OWWWW! What's that?
Larry : That's an eye.
Moe : Yeah, an eye for an eye.
[eye-poking Larry]
Moe : Get out.
Curly : And a tooth for a tooth?
Moe : Certainly.
[slapping him]
Moe : Get away from here. Now get busy.
[getting thwacked again]
Moe : Ooh! Oh! What's going on here?
[a shovel spade hits him in the face with a clang]
-
Moe : Oh, claim jumpers, eh? Well, beat it, all of you. We were here first.
Curly : What walla did you come through?
Vault Chief : Claim jumpers? You'll get life for breaking into the United States Treasury.
Moe : Treasury?
Curly : It said Walla Walla on the map.
Vault Chief : Stick 'em up!
[as the Stooges raise their hands, they drop their loads on the guards' feet]
Vault Chief : [jumping up and down in pain] Oh! Oh! Get 'em out!
-
Moe : And when they told us the money was yours, you could've knocked us down with a gold bar! And that's the whole story, Mr. President, s'help me!
President Roosevelt : I see. Well, Jimmy, I shall arrange personally for your operation.
Jimmie : Thank you, Mr. President.
President Roosevelt : And as for you gentlemen, in view of the extenuating circumstances, I find it possible to extend to you executive clemency.
Curly : Oh, no! Please, not that!
[Moe stomps his foot]
Curly : Ow!
Moe : Mr. President means we're free!
Curly : No!
Moe : Yeah!
Curly : Gee, Mr. President, you're a swell guy!
Moe : You said it!
