One Good Turn

Down and out Stan and Ollie beg for sustenance from a kindly elderly woman who offers them sandwiches. While they eat, they overhear the lady's landlord vow to evict her because she can't pay her mortgage. They do not realize that the old lady is merely rehearsing for a play. Stan and Ollie decide to aid the old woman by selling their car. During the auction, a drunk slips a wallet into Stan's pocket. Ollie accuses Stan of robbing the old lady, but once the truth is revealed, Stan takes revenge on Ollie.
