Cotton Comes to Harlem (1970)
Gravedigger Jones en Coffin Ed Johnson zijn twee agenten met de reputatie twee paar harde handen te hebben. Ze ergeren zich aan het succes van Reverend Deke O'Mailey, die aan de zwarten tripjes naar Afrika verkoopt, zodat ze hun thuisland eens kunnen bezoeken. Als O'Maily echter wordt overvallen, zetten Gravedigger en Coffin heel Harlem op z'n kop om het geld terug te vinden.
