Synopsis

In the Old West, Tommy "White Knife" Dunson Stockburn (Adam Sandler), known as "White Knife" by the American Indian tribe who raised him after his mother was murdered, is to marry a member of the tribe named Smoking Fox (Julia Jones) (She is friends with "Never Wears Bra" (Jackie Sandler)) as arranged by his adoptive father Chief Screaming Eagle (Saginaw Grant). Following a run-in with Will Patch (Will Forte) and his Left-Eye Gang (Nelly Patch (Nick Swardson), Gus Patch (Lavell Crawford), Babyface Patch (Jared Sandler), "Stumbles" Patch (Paul Sado)) who claimed to have removed their right eye (The gang makes derogatory remarks about Smoking Fox while Tommy buys his groceries inside the store. Tommy beats them all by himself when he comes out), as well as a one-eyed food proprietor named Clem (Steve Zahn), Tommy is visited by a bank robber named Frank Stockburn (Nick Nolte) who claims to be his biological father. Frank tells Tommy that he is dying of consumption and had amassed $50,000 buried in a meadow, which he offers to Tommy and his tribe.

The next day, a group of bandits led by the ruthless Cicero (Danny Trejo) come to the village and want Frank to give them his "big score." Frank has the bandits kidnap him so he can lead them to the money at the so-called "Singing Windmill" (10 days ride away), in return for the bandits not attacking Tommy or the Natives. After searching the meadow Tommy is unable to find the stash of money and sets off on a quest to steal the amount needed (from crooks and thieves) and save his father. Tommy wants the $50K to save his father from Cicero as he knows that there is no money at the singing windmill.

At the first town, Tommy encounters a rude bank manager William (Chris Parnell). Tommy plans to rob him.During his journey, Tommy discovers that he has 5 half-brothers: Mexican burro rider Ramon (Rob Schneider) whose innkeeper mother had a fling with Frank; mentally challenged yet happy-go-lucky Lil' Pete (Taylor Lautner) whose strong neck makes him immune to hanging; mountain man Herm (Jorge Garcia) who speaks incomprehensibly and helped his mother sell their moonshine; a drunkard named Danny (Luke Wilson) who was the former bodyguard of Abraham Lincoln (Dan Patrick) and is guilt-ridden from accidentally leading John Wilkes Booth (Chris Kattan) to murder the president when he mistook him for a fan of the president on his way to the restroom; and African-American saloon pianist Chico (Terry Crews) who confesses to being half-White.Together the brothers rob banks, trains and any other crooked establishment to gather the $50K needed.

Meanwhile, Clem joins the Left-Eye Gang at the cost of his only functional eye and helps them abduct Smoking Fox. She escapes due to Clem's blindness and begins searching for Tommy and his half-brothers, now known as the Ridiculous 6.

After meeting Chico and Danny, the half-brothers have a run in with Chico's boss, sociopath owner of "The Golden Nugget" saloon Smiley Harris (Harvey Keitel), who was part of Frank's gang until Frank stole his cut of their biggest score and left him to die at the windmill. The brothers try to steal the gold nugget hanging over the fireplace at the saloon as it alone is worth close to $20K. The brothers are successful till the nugget gets stuck in the narrow chimney.

When Smiley attempts to kill the half-brothers out of revenge against Frank, he ends up being unintentionally decapitated by Ramon. The group later encounters Abner Doubleday (John Turturro) a Union Army soldier who is developing baseball with some Chinese immigrants. Abner tells the brothers about he played poker with Frank at Grant's high stakes game in Yuma.

Abner invites the brothers to play his new game, but as he loses, he makes up new rules on his own (one that are written down in posterity into the game) (3 strikes, ball has to pass through the strike zone, short stop, stealing bases, ties go to the runner, a home runner, 9 innings etc)

The Left-Eye Gang soon catch up to the Ridiculous 6 while the latter are relaxing in a pond. The gang overpowers the Ridiculous 6 and steal their loot. Through Herm's ramblings, translated by Tommy, the Ridiculous 6 then decide to rob a gambling game in Yuma hosted by Ezekiel Grant (Jon Lovitz) and attended by Mark Twain (Vanilla Ice) and General George Armstrong Custer (David Spade). The Ridiculous 6 succeed, though Wyatt Earp (Blake Shelton) (the fastest gun in the west) nearly jeopardizes their plan and set off to ransom their father.

On the way, the Ridiculous 6 come across the Left-Eye Gang who have been left to die in the desert by Cicero. Tommy and the brothers rescue the Left-Eye Gang and reclaim the $50,000 they had stolen from them. That evening, Tommy sees a photograph carried by Danny that proves Cicero is the one who murdered his mother (from the tattoo on his hand) and sets off alone to rescue his father and confront the bandit leader. After meeting with Cicero and paying the ransom, Tommy confronts Cicero just and gets his revenge on his mother's killer.

The Ridiculous 6, who followed Tommy along with the Left-Eye Gang, have a reunion with their long-lost father. When Frank learns his sons exceeded his expectations by amassing $100,000, he reveals that he masterminded his abduction. Frank was so infamous that he couldn't rob any towns himself. So he staged his abduction by Cicero, so that Tommy would be induced into doing the stealing for him. Frank also reveals that he took Smoking Fox hostage, when she came by to rescue him.

But Tommy counters that his group had a Plan B: a hidden bomb inside the bag containing the ransom money. When the bomb explodes and commotion ensues, Frank runs off to a mine with Smoking Fox as his hostage. Tommy runs after them and successfully rescues his bride-to-be and captures his father.

Back in the Native Village, Tommy weds Smoking Fox with his half-brothers in attendance. Since the revelation that their biological father Frank Stockburn was no more than a two-bit crook, Screaming Eagle decides to adopt all the half-brothers as he did with Tommy. The Left-Eye Gang revealed that they lied about removing their right eyes, much to the anger of Clem.In the post-credits, Abner Doubleday and his Chinese baseball team do a chant to detail their appreciation for the Stockburns
