Of Cash and Hash is a 1955 short subject directed by Jules White starring American slapstick comedy team The Three Stooges (Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Shemp Howard). It is the 160th entry in the series released by Columbia Pictures starring the comedians, who released 190 shorts for the studio between 1934 and 1959.

The Stooges become ensnared in a case of mistaken identity when they are erroneously implicated in an armored car robbery, a predicament exacerbated by their inadvertent involvement in a crossfire incident. Subsequently, Captain Mullins subjects the trio to a lie detector examination, a procedure aimed at discerning their culpability in the alleged offense. However, the results of the examination absolve them of any wrongdoing, leading to their release from custody. Following their exoneration, they return to their regular duties at the Elite Café.

Upon the fortuitous arrival of acquaintance Gladys Harmon at the restaurant, a turn of events unfolds as one of the actual perpetrators of the armored car robbery hastily departs the vicinity. In a bid to apprehend the fugitive, the Stooges initiate a pursuit that culminates in their arrival at a decrepit mansion serving as the clandestine refuge for the bandits and their menacing enforcer, Angel.

The situation escalates when Gladys becomes the target of abduction by the criminal syndicate. In response, the Stooges undertake a valiant rescue mission, successfully liberating Gladys from captivity while also recovering the pilfered funds.
