Funny movie quotes from Cash and Carry (1937) starring The Three Stooges—Moe, Larry, Curly

Moe: The treasure, we found it!
Larry: Now Jimmy can get his operation!
Curly: There’s enough here for all of us to have an operation!

[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.

Curly: [after finding money hidden in a can on the scrap metal pile] I didn’t know they put money up in cans!
Moe: Well, they don’t!
Curly: Sure, see?
[points at label, “canned corn"]
Curly: Canned coin!

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!

Con-Man: Pardon me, gentlemen, how would you like to get in on our deal where you can make thousands?
Curly: That ain’t enough, we gotta make five hundred dollars!

Con-Man: This is the house I was telling you about, boys. A treasure was buried there by Captain Kidd’s kid.
Curly: No kiddin’!
Con-Man: That’s right!
Curly: Oh boy!
Con-Man: Just a minute! You have to pay us $200 for the privilege of digging it up!
Curly: Two hundred?
Con-Man: Two hundred or nothin’.
Curly: Oh, we’ll take it for nothin’!

Moe: Why are you keeping your money layin’ around in cans for? Why don’t you put it in a bank?
Jimmie: Will a bank give it back to us?
Curly: Oh, sure! They didn’t use to, but now they do!
Larry: And when you take it out they give you some more! I had a dollar once…
Moe: That’s enough.

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 by the way.
Curly: 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 and do your homework.
Jimmie: Oh, thank you.
