Baliff Nostradamus 'Bull' Shannon:
Here you go, sir. They tried to escape twice.

Mrs. Sheldon:
We're feisty.

Judge Harry T. Stone:
I can see that. Mr. Prosecutor?

Dan Fielding:
Yes, sir. The defendants were arrested for disturbing the peace at a local eatery after they turned over the salad bar and assaulted each other with baby tomatoes, the three bean salad, and lettuce tongs.

Public Defender Billie Young:
The Sheltons' children threw them a sixty-fifth anniversary party and things got out of hand.

Mr. Sheldon:
I didn't know she was gonna to be there.

Judge Harry T. Stone:
Sixty-fifth anniversary?

Mrs. Sheldon:
That's lead. If I had a gun, I'd give Mr. Shelton a little present.

Judge Harry T. Stone:
Pardon the presumption, but I'm getting the impression that you two lived through sixty-five years of marital...

Mr. Sheldon:
Agony.

Judge Harry T. Stone:
Thanks. Why?

Mrs. Sheldon:
We were waiting for the children to die.

Mr. Sheldon:
Aw, not that we wanted them to die, of course.

Judge Harry T. Stone:
Of course.

Mrs. Sheldon:
It's just that divorce can be so damaging. We were only thinking of the boys.

Judge Harry T. Stone:
The boys?

Mr. Sheldon:
Little Freddie will be sixty-four in April.

Mrs. Sheldon:
And the baby just retired. This would kill him.

Judge Harry T. Stone:
I have no reason to doubt that.
