Fair and Muddy is a 1928 Our Gang short silent comedy film directed by Charley Oelze.[1][2] It was the 75th Our Gang short to be released[3] and was considered to be lost. A print of the film was later discovered in Europe in 2008.

Plot

The gang live at the Gramercy Orphanage operated by Grandpa and Grandma Evans. Next door to the orphanage lives Amanda Schultz, a child-hating spinster who has a drawer full of confiscated baseballs that she has taken from the kids. However, Amanda starts acting nice towards the gang after she receives a telegram stating that she must acquire a child of her own in order to inherit a bequest from a rich uncle.

Grandpa Evans is suspicious of Amanda's actions and tells the kids to make life miserable for her. The gang stick Amanda with pins, attack her chauffeur with a pea shooter and set her friend ablaze. Then a rival gang arrives and a mud battle ensues. Amanda joins the mud bath and ends up winning it for the gang. This experience softens her as she realizes that gang made her feel like a child again.
