''Gents Without Cents'' is the 81st short by Film/TheThreeStooges.

This short depicts the Stooges as small-time performers who are having trouble rehearsing due to loud tapping above their apartment floor. When they (angrily) go up to see what the rumpus was all about, they are met by three beautiful ladies: Flo, Mary, and Shirley, who were working on their tap dance routine. The six become friends and go to talent agent Manny Weeks to show off what they could do. He is at first unimpressed with the Stooges' act, but hires them anyway to perform at the [[PunnyName Noazark Shipbuilding Company]] to entertain defense workers.
