Oily to Bed, Oily to Rise is the 42nd short subject starring American slapstick comedy team the Three Stooges. The trio made a total of 190 shorts for Columbia Pictures between 1934 and 1959.

Plot

Once again, the Stooge are three hapless tramps. After nearly destroying a farmer's (Richard Fiske) pile of firewood, the boys come to the assistance of the Widow Jenkins (Eva McKenzie), who has just been cheated out of her land by a trio of swindlers (Dick Curtis, Eddie Laughton, James Craig). Attempting to fix the woman's well, the Stooges instead unleash an oil geyser. They manage to retrieve the deed to the land and are allowed to marry the now wealthy Widow Jenkins' daughters.

Quotes

Curly: "Maybe there's a bear down there. I'd better get a trap!" Moe: "How can there be a bear down there?" Curly: "It's bearly possible."

Notes

Remade in 1957 with Joe Besser as the third stooge as Oil's Well That Ends Well.
