* ''Animal Crackers''
** "Hello! I must be going!"
** Spaulding's recounting of his trip to Africa.
** The "Seven cent nickle" scene.
** "Where's the flash?"
* ''ANightAtTheOpera'':
** Within the opera scene itself, they trick the orchestra into playing "Take Me Out To The Ballgame"... and then start tossing a ball around.
** On the steamship, Groucho is already dismayed to discover he's been given a broom closet sized room. He opens his trunk to discover Chico, Harpo, and his client Ricardo have stowed away. On top of it all, apparently every maid, electrician, carpenter, plumber, etc. is assigned to service their room at the same time.
** The Contract scene
--> '''Groucho''': It says the, uh..."The party of the first part shall be known in this contract as the party of the first part."
--> After shredding nearly every part ("The party of this part shall be known...") of the contract out:
--> '''Chico''': Hey, what's this part?
--> '''Groucho''': It's all right, that's in every contract. That's what they call a sanity clause.
--> '''Chico''': Ahaha, you can't fool me! There ain't no Sanity Claus!
** ...and two hard-boiled eggs. *HONK!* Make that three hard-boiled eggs.
*** *honk* And one duck egg.
*** Either it's foggy out, or make that a dozen more hard-boiled eggs. ([[MemeticMutation If only the Internet had been in use when this movie came out...]])
** The entire "Bearded Italian Aviators" scene, especially if you [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italo_Balbo#Aviator know the contemporary history]].
---> '''Chico:''' The first time, we get halfway across when we run out of gasoline. We got to go back. Then I take twice as much gasoline. This time, we were just about to land, maybe feet...when, what do you think, we run out of gasoline again. Back we go and get more gas. This time, I take plenty gas. We get halfway over, when what do you think happened? We forgot the airplane. So we sit down and talk it over. Then I get the great idea...we no take gasoline. We no take the airplane. We take steamship. And that, friends, is how we fly across the ocean.
*** "Was that three guys with beards, or one guy with three beards?"
** The scene where the chief of police tries to prove that the other three are hiding out with Groucho, with them progressively hiding the evidence (four beds) when he's not looking, which only makes him think he's going mad.
---> '''Henderson:''' Say! What's that bed doing here?
---> '''Groucho:''' I don't see it doing anything.
** They put a battleship in ''IlTrovatore''!!
* ''DuckSoup'':
** the mirror sequence
** the trial
** "To War!"
** the encounter with the lemonade vendor
** Let's face it- trying to single out funny moments from DuckSoup is impossible. The movie is one long CrowningMomentOfFunny from five minutes in when Firefly first enters to the fadeout at the end.
* ''HorseFeathers'':
** "Get tough with that guy." "Now get tough with the other guy." "Now get tough with both of them."
** the speakeasy/password scene
** the football game
** [[IAmSong "I'm Against It"]]
* ''ADayAtTheRaces'':
** "Geta ya Tootsie-frootsie ice cream"
* ''MonkeyBusiness'':
** the Maurice Chevalier imitations
