APPLE DUMPLING GANG: After three poor orphans are sent to live with gambler Russell Donovan, they discover they have actually inherited a large fortune from their dead father. Soon a series of greedy undesirables shows up. They try to get their hands on the money, so, in order to keep things uncomplicated, the kids decide to give their inheritance to a lovable outlaw duo, Theodore and Amos. But there is only one problem -- the gold is locked away in a bank vault. APPLE DUMPLING GANG RIDES AGAIN: Ne'er-do-well bandits Amos and Theodore, aka the Apple Dumpling Gang, make their way on their mule named Clarise to the western outpost of Junction City. But soon they're mixed up in a bank heist they didn't commit, with Marshal Woolly Bill Hitchcock on their trail. They run away and land at a military base, where Capt. Phillips is trying to track down an escaped double-crosser who might be involved with the real robbers. GUS: Yugoslavian farm boy Andy Petrovic loves soccer, but is useless on the playing field. When he announces to his beloved mule, Gus, that he's giving up the game for good, the animal obligingly kicks Andy's soccer ball far away. Soon, Andy has trained Gus to kick the ball on command. After the story of Gus the goal-kicking mule makes the news, the owner and coach of a hapless California football team draft Gus and Andy as their new field goal unit. HOT LEAD & COLD FEET: When Jasper, founder of the western town of Bloodshy, dies, his twin sons face off to decide who will inherit his legacy. Billy is a wild gunslinger, while Eli is a mild-mannered, religious type.

But the real battle begins when Billy and Eli try to wrest control from Bloodshy's crooked mayor, Ragsdale.
