The Stooges played detectives/private eyes in several shorts, but I can't place that particular line. The closest I can think of is this exchange from Hot Ice (1955).

Bee: Oh yes, it's just that you policemen frightened me so.

Shemp: But we ain't real policemen, lady. We only graduated from detective school.


The scene was a little different when originally done in A Crime on Their Hands (1948).

Bee: Oh yes, it's just that you policemen frightened me so.

Larry: Policemen?

Shemp: But we ain't cops, lady. We're reporters.


Moe also says "we're detectives!" a few times in Who Done It? (1949).

I am not sure of the answer, perhaps Rick or someone else will know.
