Miss Susan.
Miss Susan.
Miss Susan?
-Just five more minutes, Bessie.
-No, ma'am. Now!
But, Bessie, I feel absolutely sklonklish.
You sklonklish yourself
down to breakfast.
I'm getting the judge
up right now.
I'm up.
Sklonklish. When I went to school
they taught us to speak English.
Judge Turner?
Judge Turner.
Judge Turner.
-Five more minutes.
-Breakfast is ready, Your Honor.
-What time is it?
-It's a few minutes past 8.
-Is my sister up?
-Yes, Miss Margaret.
She was feeling a little sklonklish today,
but I got her up.
Next time she tells you she feels sklonklish,
you tell her not to be a clunk.
Thanks, Your Honor. I dig you.
-Good morning.
-Good morning.
Good morning, dear.
Hello?
Hi, Jerry.
No, we have to listen to a speech
this afternoon. Good deal, Neil.
Susan, your breakfast
is on the table.
Hang on a second.
Sorry I'm late, sis.
-Did you sleep well?
-Oh, sklonklish.
Don't be a clunk, Miss Susan.
-You've been coaching her.
-Someone has to protect her.
You know the case you were trying?
The man who ran away
with a 16-year-old girl?
-What did you give him?
-Three years.
That'll cost me $3.
I always bet you won't sentence people.
That's ridiculous.
How have you been doing?
You've cost me a fortune.
If you're interested in a more exact
science, spend time on geometry.
I don't consider geometry
a part of life.
Mr. Roberts does.
You're his first student to define a triangle
as two women crazy about one man.
-Mr. Roberts is definitely decadent.
-Is he?
-Margaret.
-How much?
Only $3. Just as an advance
on my allowance.
You're already working on 1949.
But no more betting.
Thank you very much.
I wonder why you're so good to me.
You know I'd die for you,
only sometimes it's hard living with you.
The call of the wild.
I've got to go.
-You haven't eaten breakfast.
-Thanks. Bye.
I can't talk now.
-Bessie.
-Yes, ma'am?
Have you been following the case
about the man who ran away with the girl?
Yes, ma'am, I have.
As a matter of curiosity, do you think
my sentence was too severe?
No, I would have given him 10 years.
-Would you?
-I certainly would.
Thank you, Bessie.
I was just curious.
That must be the judges.
Yes, I mustn't keep them waiting.
Oh, thank you.
Your Honor.
-Goodbye, Bessie.
-Goodbye, Miss Margaret.
Exit woman, enter judge.
More's the pity.
Uncle Matt, I take exception
to your innuendo.
I'm no problem to you.
You should concern yourself with Susan.
Nothing wrong that the firm hand
of a man in the house wouldn't cure.
If you'd listen to me,
you wouldn't have this problem.
And I've been telling you
I will not put up...
...with your constant attempts
to get me married.
Come in.
Good morning, good morning.
-Good morning, Margaret and Herr Doctor.
-Good morning, Chamberlain.
Margaret, I found a copy of the rare old
English writ of exigi facias.
Thank you, Tommy.
If that's the night-blooming exigi facias,
you can put it in a vase and water it.
You seem a little truculent this morning.
Physician, heal thyself.
See you later, Margaret.
I'm not as much interested
in the woman getting married...
...as I am in making sure
that she marries the right man.
I don't think he likes me. It's a sixth sense
one acquires in the district attorney's office.
Uncle Matt has a personal life
beyond his job as court psychiatrist...
...and occasionally
they become confused.
Yes, I guess so.
Speaking of combining work and pleasure...
...I understand you're reviewing
the Richard Nugent case. I have an interest--
You know I don't like that.
