Wrong Again (1929)
Los mozos de cuadra Stan y Ollie cuidan un pura sangre llamado "Blue Boy". Pero cuando escuchan a dos hombres hablar sobre una recompensa de $ 5000 por la devolución del "Blue Boy" robado, se pierden la parte de que es la pintura, no el caballo. Llevan el caballo a la casa del dueño para reclamar la recompensa. El propietario les indica que pongan "Blue Boy" en el piano y Ollie explica que "estos millonarios son peculiares".

Production notes
Wrong Again contains a sight gag prevalent in 1929 but less familiar to contemporary audiences. As Laurel and Hardy bring their horse, Blue Boy, into the house, Stan lifts the lid off an urn, attaches Blue Boy's rein to it, and drops it to the floor. This action elicits laughter from the audience, as the flimsy lid resembles a horse anchor, a device commonly used during the era.
The working title of Wrong Again was Just the Reverse, a reference to the 180-degree hand-twist gesture that is a running gag throughout the film. Laurel and Hardy historian Randy Skretvedt writes that the gesture was a running gag around the Hal Roach Studios: creative sparkplug Leo McCarey would remind the writers that a dramatic episode could be infused with comedy by applying just a twist to make it funny.
The stable scenes were shot at a Los Angeles sports complex, polo field and ranch known as The Uplifters in Rustic Canyon.
