SYNOPSIS

One-time cartoonist Tashlin gets his first director's credit with this sequel to Hope's comedic masterpiece. Hope plays the son of his character in The Paleface, an Ivy Leaguer headed west to claim the inheritance left by his frontier dentist dad. He and Rogers run down a crook who's been holding up gold shipments. Hope once again joins saloon-singer Russell as they send up every Western cliche in the classic Hollywood book. Plenty of songs, including a reprise of "Buttons and Bows" and "Am I In Love."

Peter 'Junior' Potter Jr.: I was so young at the time, I don't remember many of the things Daddy said about me. He poured out his heart in this will. I'd kinda like to read it. "The reason I leave all my money to my son Junior is that, being of sound mind I can't leave my money to my wife, 'cause I ain't never forgiven her since the day she presented me with an idiot for a son." Well, I was the only child. "But this idiot is all I got in the world, which shows you what a lousy spot I'm in."
Peter 'Junior' Potter Jr.: Why, I'm so mean, I hate myself.

Peter 'Junior' Potter Jr.: Where I hail from, we don't cotton to folks what cotton to other folks gals that don't cotton to folks that cotton to them. That's cotton talk, see?
