The Stooges are the sole heirs to a grandiose inheritance, which has fallen into the clutches of the duplicitous broker, Icabod Slipp, who has taken control of the funds.

Engaging in a series of confrontations with Slipp in his office, the Stooges are subjected to false accusations of being the culprits responsible for the misappropriation of funds.

Dodging a vigilant conductor, the Stooges seek refuge in a crate within the baggage car, unaware that it harbors an unexpected occupant — a lion.

As chaos ensues, the Stooges find themselves entangled in a slapstick sequence of events, inadvertently revealing their presence to the train's passengers.

Through a combination of wit and physical prowess, the Stooges emerge victorious, overcoming Slipp's machinations and reclaiming their inheritance.
