Chercheurs d'or (1940)
S. Quentin Quale (Groucho), un escroc plein d'aplomb, est en route vers le Far West où il compte bien faire fortune. Dans le hall de la gare de départ, il fait la rencontre des deux frères Panello (Harpo et Chico) qui s'avèrent encore moins honnêtes que lui puisqu'ils parviennent à le délester de tout son argent, ce qui leur permet eux aussi de se rendre sur ces terres pleines de promesses de fortune... Une fois arrivés sur place, ils sympathisent avec le vieux Dan Wilson à qui ils prêtent un peu d'argent : en gage, celui-ci leur donne l'acte de propriété d'une terre qui ne vaut apparemment pas grand chose. Or, le vieux Wilson ne sait pas que le chemin de fer passera bientôt par ce terrain, ce qui décuple sa valeur aux yeux de la compagnie ferroviaire...
