I figure by now,

I've saved myself

- a lot of money in legal fees.

- True dat.

How about you?

Is there a Mrs. Riley?

Oh, yes.

The good Mrs. Riley

is back on the East Coast,

having absconded with

my last name, my dog,

and my co-op on the park.

What did you do wrong?

Well, let's just say

I was a little less good

at assessing risk.

Whoa! Tom, talk about

false advertising.

[trumpet sounds

through speakers]

[whispers] Whoa!

Jesus.

[woman, over computer] Join Tom

and Cheryl and millions of others

who found love on Bumble.

Join Tom and Cheryl as they

copulate in a coconut tree.

- [assistant] Judge Meyers?

- Yes.

Hi. It's 12:
15.

Well, I really have

to stay with this, so, um...

If you could just tell them that we

have to move it to next week, please.

Of course. Yeah.

[woman, over computer]

Rev up your love life

with these tips

from Bumble...

Make love happen now

and change your life...

Do you need anything else,

Your Honor?

[woman, over computer] A man of

your dreams is just a click away.

No, I don't. I'm fine.

- Thank you.

- Yep.

[door opens, closes]

[Arthur] Here you go.

Make a wish.

What are you doing?

I made a wish.

What did you wish for?

I always wish for the same

thing:
a healthy planet.

That's not your wish.

That's not even a wish!

Wishes have to be personal,

not global.

- Since when?

- Since forever.

[sighs]

And secondly, you can't

tell anybody your wish.

Otherwise it negates

the whole thing.

No, God, you're not gonna

go in there. Don't do that.

Well, somebody has to.

You made an improper wish

and you've jeopardized

the entire planet.

Oh, God, you are insane.

You are insane!

Don't go in!

[grunts] Oh...

I have no choice here.

You're obviously

the type of person

who's too delicate

to go in after her own penny.

Oh, you think I'm delicate?

[shrieks]

See? Delicate.

You know, what you're reading

as delicate is this.

It's this bracelet

that costs as much as a car!

Let's see that bracelet.

- Oh, no. Not my phone...

- Oh, dear!

- Oh, dear.

- No, no. Oh, boy.

- Now you have done it.

- Oh, what do you mean?

God, it's scary how addicted

you kids are to your phone.

[grunts]

No, give it to me!

Hold on one second here!

[chuckles] I've never seen...

You know, I think you might need

to talk to someone about this.

I see why you lost

your co-op on the park.

- I hope that's waterproof.

- Oh, no. [squeals]

[chuckles]

[whistle blowing]

- No bathing in the fountain.

- [Arthur] Okay!

But technically,

we're not bathing.

- Arthur.

- And she started it.

He doesn't care who started it!

It was him.

- Out.

- All right.

Oh!

Ah, wait a minute.

- I found it.
