- Your mom let me in, Today.
- Hi buddy.
- What are you doing, studying?
- Working on the letter for my princess.
- Letter?  Oh, Lala's speeding ticket?
- Yea, my Letter of Declaration.
- Trial by Declaration.  Your letter of declaration is gonna go to Hamlet.
- Don't make fun of me, I'm hard at work.
- You're not using a crayon like I told you, are you?
- No, I'm being way serious.
- What's your defense?
- Well, he wrote her as going 53 in a 35.
- Ouch, that's like over 20.
- So I'm going to prove he's really mean.
- What?  You sound like a lawyer I had once.
- Well, she said he was real nasty to her--that was a big mistake!
- Got you fired up, huh?
- And then I read the ticket--
- Class is teaching you something, huh?
- Objection, this is a serious matter.
- (laughing) All right, all right.
- When I read the ticket I saw it was the same officer who arrested me before.
- Back when you were drinking two beers?
- Yea, my dark days.
- What was it, that time you were drunk on the bench?
- The time I was swaying near the bench.  Not the other time.
- You know you're not allowed near that bench, Today.
- I don't go anymore!
- I'm just kidding.
- But when they arrested me, he was yelling at me, too.
- But you were a wreck.
- It wasn't him that arrested me.  The other officer was professional and calm.  It's not right for citizens to suffer just cause he has a bad temper.
- You're starting to sound like an attorney already.
- I thought I'd ask the court for all his citation reports, any complaint forms against the man--
- The man?
- Yea, for my discovery, see if I can't spot some consistencies.
- Today, you can't take this to trial.
- Yes I can, she'll see me wearing a suit.
- You can't act as her attorney.
- Why not?  Just because I'm a day of the week?
- You're not qualified, Today.  Look, I'm not being dayist, I accept all days; it's just that she has to represent herself against the court and officer if she's not going to hire a real attorney.
- Well, it's not fair for my client to be subjected to his tantrums just cause he might not like some of the days he encounters.
- I'm not saying he might not be an asshole, but it sounds like you're turning it into more of a vendetta to justify getting off your darling for breaking the law.
- You think?
- I don't know, actually.  I don't know why I'm giving it this much thought.  You can write out your argument for her, I guess.
- Oh, she can't read English.
- I don't know, I gotta go.  I just came here to borrow some sugar.
- Here you go, here is your sugar.
- Thank you, you have given me the sugar.  That concludes the purpose of this visit.  We shall take more later.
- (Poncho) Fool, why didn't you just say you gotta use his can and then on the next post you can take it from there?
- Shut up, Poncho.
- What's Poncho doing here?
- God, I hate that guy!
