Stupidity: In the episode "Out West" (1946), Moe fills up three highly sabotaged drinks for the bad men at the poker table and a fourth "safe" drink for Shemp made of Sassperilla. Moe then gets bumped into and puts down the tray of drinks and then gets confused, not knowing which drink is which. To avoid the uncertainty of which is the safe drink for Shemp, he should have filled Shemp's drink with a bit more or a bit less drink in the cup to help him know. He filled them all up to the exact same height.
Stupidity: In "Studio Stoops," one mobster ties Larry to a bed and another mobster ties Moe to a chair. The second mobster says, "Boss, why don't you let me plug 'em?" The other replies, "It would make too much noise. Wait till we get 'em outside." If that is the plan, then why tie up Moe and Larry indoors?
