chucklehead judge who's probably a deacon

at the corner church.

Play our cards right, wecan get him to forgive us,

as every good Christian should,

and we will be on our way.

- Whatcha thinkin' Jamal?

- Everybody who goes to jail gets saved.

Ain't that right, Frankie?

and baptized too if therewere any water in the toilet.

(laughs)

- Saved?

You know somebody whocan bust us outta here?

- I'm not talking aboutthat kinda saved, Sam.

- Wait a minute.

You expect me to go before a judge

and convince him that Isuddenly found religion?

You know I don't believeany of this stuff.

- You don't have to believe it.

You just gotta make sure thatthe judge believes it, Sam!

Gentlemen, we are all gonna get saved!

(church organ music)

- [Rusty] Looks like ourReverend Freeman's a no show.

- It's probably a good thing.

I think our good friendhere, Judge Cartwright

was gonna put him awayfor a pretty long time.

- It's kind of a shame really.

He's not a bad fella.

- Problem is, where arewe gonna find a reverend

dumb enough to fall for your plan?

- Just remember there's asucker born every minute.

- All rise.

The Honorable Judge Calden Cartwright.

- You can go ahead and sit down.

- City of Rocky Roadcalls the Reverend Freeman

on the charge of stealing an exhaustion

from a community church.

- Your Honor?

- [Judge] Yes, Mr. Pickens.

- It seems that ReverendFreeman's a no show.

We've got Officer Marrow outlooking for him right now.

- Very well, then.

Next case.

- City calls the strangersfrom out of town.

What are you stooges looking at?

Is that your dumb face oryou always look like that?

Get on over there, you nitwit!

- There's some very seriouscharges against you here.

- Mr. Honorable Judge ofthe local law of Rocky Road,

I believe I can explain.

There were a plethora ofunfortunate circumstances

that betwixt us in front

of the one local business establishment.

- Yes, Your Honor.

We, the accused of certain crimes against

our fellow humanity, we standbefore you as changed men.

- That's right, Your Honor.

You see, last night, we all got saved

and have turned from our wicked ways.

- So you spent a night in theclink and then you met Jesus?

- Yes, we found Jesus!

- Exactly, Your Honor!

- We were heathens out inthe wilderness, Your Honor,

and we were lost andhave come to our senses!

- Like the prayers ofRocky Road Community Church
