…. that they quaranteed him and snatched him from the bench. After all, he was running for the Senate next term and this blatant lie about him being sick was something he didn’t want to hit the news.

From his hotel room, he sat and watched the proceedings on tv, occasionally studying his spanish-english dictionary and flipping the channels back and forth to SpongeBob, just for amusement, while sipping an irish whiskey. He had to accept his fate, after all. As long as they didn’t bar him from the bar he’d be ok, he said to himself, pouring another straight shot of courage.

When the jury returned from being sequestored, Luna took her place as the 12th with the 11 angry men.

Miss Informed was called to the stand and the substitute judge, Judge Ment ,was well robed behind the bench, with a newspaper in his lap. Unfortunately Miss Informed was quickly dismissed for not being properly patted down by security and sent back to the green room to watch Sponge Bob’s escapades.

Ms Direction swore in Ms Calculation.

“State your name for the jury, please”, she stated, stately like in her stance.

“Ms Calculation”, the witness said.

“Your full name please”, Ms D continued.

“That IS my full name! I swear!!”, Ms Calculation answered.

“Don’t swear at ME!”, the assistant prosecuter continued… “Could you please tell us in what area your expertise lies?”

Ms Calculation looked confused but answered with a reasonable amount of assurity.

“I’m a translator. Spanish to English mostly. Sometimes English to Spanish”, she replied, in a very heavy El Salvadorian accent.

Judge Ment took notes. Things were not as they appeared, he knew immediately. Luna shook in her chair!! She had the note in her pocket .
