They are a bumbling duo of robbers that Sheriff Homer McCoy said "They couldn't steal candy from a baby". After Celvia, Clovis and Bobby found the gold nugget, Theodore and Amos tried to steal the gold, but got caught by the sheriff and sentenced them to be hung. But they were getting their chance to get the gold, for when John Whintle, the second uncle of Celvia, Clovis and Bobby was going to get them (for all he wanted was the gold nugget) away from Donovan, they made a deal with Theodore and Amos to take the gold so Celiva, Clovis and Bobby can stay with Donovan, and to make things calm they said to Theodore and Amos It's not accutully stealing, it's our gold we're giving it to you. But things weren't going well for Frank Stillwell also knew about the nugget were going to steal it, but the town found out and Frank and his gang escaped with Celvia and Frank told Theodore and Amos they can have the nugget, but they accientally destroyed it to pieces by a pack of dynamite. In the end, Theodore and Amos decided to quit the robbing buisness and live with Donovan and his new family. Theodore and Amos returned in The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again,
