"First off," Harry looked at the proud neighborhood watch who had caught the person terrorizing their kids. "I'd like to recommend I am truly impressed with you parents who found the time to bind together and catch this creep who has been brain-washing your kids. I want you to know that this sort of thing is not allowed and no one is going to let him get away with it ever again. Bull, take him away."
"Right, Harry," Bull grabbed the guy in the big purple dinosaur costume and began dragging him away to lock-up.
"But, Bull, I love you too!!!!!"
"Oh god, not that song again!!!!" Bull's eyes watered as the dragged the purple idiot off.
"Here we go, sir," Mac dropped another file. "Case 253, Carey vs. Bobeck, public disturbance." Harry looked up as two more people came out arguing and fighting with each other. The tall hefty guy was attired quite dapperly, but the short fat woman was dressed like a clown replete with the make-up.
"Why can't anyone come out with a nice thing to say?" Billie asked.
"It ain't possible." Dan responded as he went into legal mode. "Sir, the assailants are here for the retailer's seminar here..."
"Oh, rival stores?"
"No, same store." Dan revealed to stunned surprise. "Unfortunately, their yelling and fighting at each other turned into a pie fight that turned into a riot that required police three hours to put an end to."
"Hey," Mimi Bobeck tugged at Dan's jacket. "You get me out of here and I'll show you the same kind of good time that I save for Joe Walsh."
"Trust me," Carey quipped. "I don't think he wants anything to do with anything that sleeps in straw standing up."
"You'd be surprised." Billie answered.
"People." Harry pounded his gavel just before the fat female clown started to deck the chubby fat guy in the bowtie. "Now, who started the fight?"
"She did, your honor." Drew straightened his tie, closed his jacket and came forward. "Mimi Bobeck is downright evil, she's the embodiment of everything unholy, and she's..."
"A mail man?" Roz quipped.
"No," Drew thought it over. "But it might explain why Mailman Bob has never been by my home in Cleveland."
"That's it, Carey." Mimi clenched her fist. "You're going down." She threw her punch as Drew ducked out of the way to the floor. Mimi's fist meanwhile made contact elsewhere. Billie had turned to the tiny fat fist as it hit her square in her face.
"Billie!!" Harry leaned over his bench as Billie dropped and Roz restrained Bobeck.
"Oh no," Drew grinned. "Kong is loose!!" He stood up alone by the D.A. as Harry reacted to his unconscious public defender collapsing to the floor.
"Contempt of court!!" Harry hit his gavel. "Roz."
"I'll get you for this, Carey." Mimi screamed. "I'll get you for this!!!" She was screaming a constant volley of profanity as Roz dragged her from the room. Drew stood leaning on Harry's bench as he watched the spectacle.
"It wasn't the airplanes…" Carey quipped with a grin to Harry. "T'was beast that killed the beauty."
"What are we going to do without a public defender now?" Mac lifted Billie unconscious to her feet.
"Easy," Dan grinned. "We stop and continue tomorrow."
"We can't do that." Mac answered. "We've still got almost two hundred and fifty cases to cover."
"Don't look at me." Carey was still standing around. "I'm a personnel director, not a lawyer!" He did his best Star Trek impression.
"Reporting for duty, sir!" Christine had rushed in, picking up Billie's folder eager to fill in and once more take her old spot. In her mind, she was disputing the legal ramifications, but in her heart she flashed back on her much loved years in the public defender's office and was wanting to once again work with the man who was now her husband.
"She can't do that!!" Dan vehemently objected.
"She looks like she can do anything she wants." Drew eyeballed Christine's wonderful figure and focused on her thirty-eight inch bust straining from her blouse. For some reason, he pictured Christine wearing Lynda Carter's old Wonder Woman bustier under that violet jacket and skirt combo.
"Tick-tock, sir!" Mac leaned to Harry still holding Billie's unconscious form in his arms..
"But, Mac, Christine's no longer a..."
"When was the last time you followed by the rules??" Mac shot back.
"Come on, Harry," Christine was ready. "You need the help! I'll smooth things over later!"
"She's a judge now!!" Dan screamed. "We need a public defender!!!" Harry covered his face as Drew's big face came within his own.
"Hey, give her a chance." Carey answered still mooning over Christine.
"Next case, Mac!!" Harry decided to continue with his wife back like old times. Dan tossed Carey's file behind him as Mac cheered and dropped Billie.
"Otis Campbell." Mac picked Billie up and handed the file over. "Public drunkenness." Bull had escorted a short, fat man in a rumpled suit.
"A man after my own heart." Drew grinned as a random bailiff in the courtroom escorted him to step out of the way and sit down in the courtroom benches. Taking his place out of the way, Carey sat and watched the proceeding and wished he had some popcorn.
"Sir," Dan dejectedly continued. "Mr. Campbell was picked up intoxicated near Central Park."
"Sir," Christine felt good to be back in the flow of things again. "Defense asks for leniency since he's visiting from out of town."
"Mister Campbell," Harry turned to the tipsy tourist. "Have you anything to say?"
"Yeah," Campbell looked around. "Who are you people and how the heck did I get here?!! This ain't Mayberry!"
