Every time Amos and Theodore tried to rob the bank, every single time.
When Theodore and Amos first try to steal the gold.
Theodore: It's a piece of cake.
Amos: You mean it ain't gold?
Let's be honest, just about every scene with those two is a CMOF.
The scene where Sheriff McCoy catches Amos and Theodore robbing the bank. Instead of actually arresting them, he takes pity on them and comes up with an elaborate (and phony) explanation about not having any rope with which to hang them. After the pair leave, McCoy offhandedly tells the deputy that if the pair are dumb enough to come back with a rope, he'd hang them for being Too Dumb to Live.
He actually gives the two a whole trial in the bank, in his long johns.
McCoy: Theodore Ogelvie, Amos Tucker, you're charged with attempted bank robbery. How do you plead, guilty or not guilty?
McCoy: This court sentences you to be hung by the neck until dead. And I'm fining you an extra ten bucks for perjury.
Later we learn the only reason Amos and Theodore didn't come back to be hung was because they couldn't find any rope.
The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again (1979)
The name of Amos's donkey is Clarice, now at face value that's a fine name. The only problem is Amos clearly could not tell he'd named his male donkey Clarice. Talk about a new level of stupid.
The scene where the enraged Sergeant Slaughter loudly tells his subordinate, in lengthy detail, what to say to cavalry-stockade prisoners Theodore and Amos, who are tied up right next to them. ("You tell these men they're gonna stand here in the blazing hot sun...") He finally finishes and stomps off, and the subordinate turns to the prisoners and.. starts repeating verbatim everything the sergeant just said.
Theodore: [gentle kindness] We.. we heard him the first time, Corporal.
