One Good Turn

A widow's generosity is put to the ultimate test when her greedy landlord seeks to evict her, prompting a group of enterprising young boys to band together and help her overcome her financial woes.

Two struggling comedians, Stan and Ollie, take in a meal at an elderly woman's home, only to accidentally stumble upon a sinister plot to evict her from her home. Believing it's a genuine crisis, they impulsively auction off their car to help, leading to a chaotic situation where Stan mistakenly takes possession of a large sum of money, sparking a misunderstanding with Ollie who accuses him of theft.
