JURY DUTY CH2
Tap.....
Tap..... Tap.....
Tap..... Tap..... Tap......
Scout
I'm trying to sleep in here. What ya want?
Officer
Mr.. Uh.... Scout. Is that right?
Scout
That's what the Lupine's called me. Or was it !@#%$%^^? Does't matter cuz Skippy says I don't say it right.
Officer
Um. Right. I'm here about your petition to be selected for Jury Duty.
Scout
Yeah? Skippy will be thrilled. He's so anxious to win his first case.
Officer
I don't know a Mr... um. Skippy. Is he a lawyer? What firm does he belong to?
Scout
Well, he isn't as firm as he used to be. He lost a lot of stuffing when we wuz looking for that ticket.
Officer
I have no idea what you are talking about (And don't want to know). Now, about your petition. You do realize that signing your own name five thousand times in green crayon is not admissible in court.
Scout
I have a red crayon? Would that help? The others melted when I burned down the theatre. Did you know that they don't appreciate flaming popcorn balls? Some people.
Officer
Did you just tell me that you purposively burnt down the AMC?
Scout
Yeah. I didnt get the whole ratings thing, so I set the screen on fire with popcorn balls. They gave me such a weird look when I asked for extra kerosine on my popcorn.
Officer
I'm going to have to take you down town. You have the right to remain silent. You have a right to an attorney...
Scout
Really? I'll get Skippy. He's dead tired.
And in one quick instant, both Scout and his card board castle are gone. All that remains is a very disturbed, very confused police officer who wonders what the h*&^"^*" he is going to say to his captain.
