A man lies, cheats and steals to find the abominable snowman, and eventually discovers a lama who knows the secret of the snowman and is forced to summon it. He discovers that the snowman was a greedy man like him, cursed to wear a bestial form until another took his place. He is horrified as the snowman becomes human and he is transformed into a monster.

Robots make Earth into a living paradise, but humans grow fearful and oppress them, causing them to leave for another planet, where they build and oppress their own robots while Fate laughs.

A dictator forces a scientist to use his duplicator machine on him so that he can have a substitute appear in public places to avoid assassination attempts. The duplicate is too much like the original, however, and refuses to expose himself to danger when he can seize power to rule the country. The dictator returns to the machine with the intent of destroying it only to find it has continually been producing duplicates. While the duplicates are arguing among themselves, a revolution occurs, and the new democratic regime deports all versions of the former dictator.

A man gets the idea to rob a gambler by putting sleeping powder in his toothpaste. When he enters the room later that evening the intended victim shoots him. The would-be thief realizes in his final moments that the man had false teeth.
