Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })A 1947 comedy Western movie starring Bud Abbott, Lou Costello and Marjorie Main.It opens with traveling salesmen Duke (Abbott) and Chester (Costello) arriving in the distinctly dangerous town of Wagon Gap, Montana. Chester is mistaken for the murderer of a local man and is slated to be hanged, until someone remembers a local law that lets him off the hook... provided he agrees to look after the dead man's widow and her children. Duke and Chester end up with the widow (Main) and her gang of ungrateful and troublesome kids, with the man-hungry widow trying to land Chester as her next husband.Chester finally puts his situation to good use by becoming the new sheriff, threatening everyone he meets into compliance by displaying a picture of the widow. However, when local outlaws learn about a railroad that's about to buy the widow's property, Chester's defense almost becomes his death warrant!Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

Accidental Aiming Skills: Chester fires upwards and a man falls off the roof. The man was revealed to be holding a pistol, technically making it a duel. | |

Fate Worse than Death | |
| The Wistful Widow of Wagon Gap / int_b1346878 | comment |
Fate Worse than Death: Due to a law whereby the survivor of a gun duel must take responsibility for the deceased's debts and family (Which got Chester Wooley in trouble in the first place). He quickly realize he is untouchable as NO one wants to suffer taking care of Mrs Hawkins and her kids. At least not at first... | |

Accidental Truth | |
| The Wistful Widow of Wagon Gap / int_e784bb8c | comment |
Accidental Truth: Duke makes up a lie that the railroad is interested in buying Hawkins' land, which causes every outlaw to try and murder Chester. It's then revealed the railroad really was trying to buy her land. | |
