As he leaves at the end of the film, Cuthbert J. Twillie (W.C. Fields) says to Flower Belle, "Why don't you come up and see me sometime?", a reference to Mae West's famous line in an earlier film, She Done Him Wrong (1933). moreGoofs:
Continuity: On the train out of town, after Cuthbert gives Flowerbelle the heart shaped charm, his hat starts on his head, but then suddenly its magically in his left hand (so he can use his right hand to hold onto the railing.) moreQuotes:
Aunt Lou: These are right pretty pictures of you, Flower Belle.Flower Belle Lee: Yeah, I like'em. They look just like me.

After Flower Bell Lee (Mae West) is run out of town when she's found out for her hanky-panky with the Masked Bandit, she meets con-man Cuthbert Twillie (W. C. Fields) on the train that she's departing the town. during an Indian raid. She marries him when she spies a bag full of money on his person. Fields is great as always, even if this is nowhere near his best movie. The story doesn't really go anywhere, but W. C. and to a slightly lesser extent West make it highly watchable none the less. This movie can be found in the W.C. Fields comedy collection, along with, "The Bank Dick", "You can't Cheat an Honest Man", "It's a Gift", "International House", and "W.C. Fields:Behind the Laughter"
