All language subtitles for Night Court s03e10 The Wheels of Justice 2

Last week on Night Court, there was
trouble for the Blakes. Your Honor, Mrs.

Blake returned from work and found an
eviction notice on her door.

I got a simple policy.

You don't pay, you don't stay.

Made that up myself.

We just moved here.

We don't know anyone.

Can't you help us?

And there was trouble for the Wheelers.
Your Honor, the Wheelers were found on a

park bench crying.

They were arrested for vagrancy.

Will I ever see Disney World now, Daddy?

Never, sweetheart.

Never in a million years.

Took so long, I'm frightened.

Oh, don't worry, Mrs. Flake. I have a
feeling we're about to see some magic.

The state finds the defendant guilty as
charged.

Ta -da.

Take it easy, kid.

I'll take it any way I can get it.

You're a pig!

Remember that lady and her kid from last
night?

Yeah. Kid just tried to rob a liquor
store on Broadway.

So he got arrested?

He got shot.

Uh, Your Honor?

If it's about the kid, he heard already.

The cops gave him a call.

When? Two minutes ago.

Right before he quit.

That's right, officer. He's been missing
since last night.

Uh, let's see. He's tall.

He's skinny. He's wearing a long black
robe and blue suede shoes.

Oh, and there's a possibility he's got a
stuffed armadillo with him.

You get that a lot with Harry.

Any word from the hospital, Mac?

Yeah, I just talked to him. The kid came
through fine.

Oh. Yeah. Oh, thank God.

Now the only problem is the one man that
needs to hear that is vanishing to thin

air. Oh, Mac, where is he? I'm driving
me crazy.

Well, he's not in Manhattan.

Why?

Are you all right?

I checked everywhere.

I checked his apartment.

No luck.

Then I checked his favorite restaurants,
all the magic shops, the toy stores,

the parks, the zoo.

Is that seaweed on your lapel?

You swam around the whole island, didn't
you?

The last few miles were the hardest.

I felt like I was pulling a lead weight.

Bull, what are those little round marks
on the back of your uniform?

Tannicles.

That's what they were yelling from
shore.

Uh -huh, yeah.

Well, okay, thanks anyway.

So what'd you tell him at City Hall when
you asked him for a replacement judge?

Well, last night I said Harry had to
leave because his place had a flood.

Tonight I went with the death and the
family.

Mac? I know, this is how Pinocchio got
started.

Well, he's not at the morgue.

You looked for Judge Stone at the
morgue?

Yeah, I got a friend who works there.

Matter of fact, I got about a dozen
friends who work there.

We sit around swapping recipes. We play
board games. They even gave me a spare

locker to keep my things in. You know
how some people like the park?

Me? I like the morgue.

Getting to know you.

Getting to know all about you.

Criminal court part two is now in
session.

The Honorable...

Harrison Kemp,

presiding. You okay?

Yeah, Mr. Sandman didn't get a chance to
visit me last night.

Probably afraid to come in.

Tonight's docket, sir. Thank you.

Oh, I'm sorry, sir. That belongs to the
judge who usually presides here.

Evening.

Well, if it isn't Mr. and Mrs. Knight of
the Living Dead.

Just so you know, we're looking for a
ride to Florida.

If we have to, we can split the gas.

My wife here is willing to sell her
hair.

it just a luxury item.

So many of us forget that.

We spent the night at the mission.

It was the most beautiful place on the
face of the earth.

They gave us a slice of olive loaf.

And the entertainment portion of the
evening was a true pleasure.

Entertainment? A man ate five insects
for three hours.

They had to beg us to leave.

You brush your teeth with your fingers,
don't you?

First case, Your Honor, people versus
Anthony Rago.

Mr.

Rago, it says here you assaulted a
waiter with a pool cue.

Allegedly assaulted, Your Honor. Oh, no,
I hit him, all right.

Fence wrath.

Your Honor, I... He gave me a bowl of
soup with this giant dead fly in it.

So I says to him, hey, there's a fly in
my soup.

And he says, so?

Get him to split the check.

Get him to split the check.

Give me a hand, will you? I'm dying up
here.

Your Honor, at that point... the
bartender demanded payment, and a

ensued. Well, it was my last buck.

This clown just cleaned me out on a game
of eight ball.

Clown? Well, not a real clown. It's just
kind of a figure of speech.

I feel like I'm talking to a duffel bag.

Could you describe this clown, Mr. Ray,
though?

Yeah, kind of tall and skinny.

Kind of wore a long black bathrobe.

He ran the table on me four times, and
then he shakes my hand and zaps me with

joy buzzer.

Harry! What?

You said a black bathrobe?

Yeah. Could it have been a judge's robe
like this?

I don't know.

Well, take a look, Bozo. A man's life
may depend on it.

Oh. Oh, Your Honor.

I am so sorry.

This is silk, isn't it?

I may say this is the strangest court.

I've ever presided over.

Thank you.

I find the defendant guilty as charged
$50 fine.

Don't hit me!

Okay, then talk.

What's his name, Harry?

Who? The geek who scoped you at 8 -Ball.
Well, I don't know what his name was.

You saw him at a pool hall?

Yeah. I looked there.

Well, I didn't even say which one. There
must be at least... 962 of them.

Yeah, well, he's in the one across the
street.

Seven hundred and sixty -three.

Six in the corner.

Five inside.

Eleven in the corner off the cockroach
stuck to the felt.

I brought you your messages, sir. How
about a quick game, Matt?

No, sir. I got to go back to work.

We were kind of hoping you'd come with
us, Harry. Yeah.

No, I can't. I got to practice. I'm
going back out on the road.

Sir, I have some great news.

The bullet only grazed one of Joey's
lungs.

Say, that is great news.

That didn't come out well, did it? No,
it was you. I loved it. Listen, Harry,

the point is that little tiny Tim is
fine. He came out of surgery this

I know. I was there.

He woke up.

He opened his eyes.

Called me pig.

Maybe he meant it affectionately.

Sir, when are you going to stop whipping
yourself about that kid?

I'm not whipping myself.

But there was a very nice couple in the
back room who offered to do it for me.

Larry, we can't stand here and watch
while you throw your career away.

Tell you what, why don't you watch from
over there? The view's better.

But, sir, we can't... Hey, guys.

Can you take a hint?

I quit.

I am no longer interested in what goes
on up there. I will not sit at that

and say what the books tell me to say
night after night.

If you think it's all fair and
equitable, fine.

As far as I'm concerned, it sucks rocks.

Case closed.

So, you're just going to play pool for
the rest of your life? Sure.

Hours of the same.

And besides, it's something I'm pretty
sure I'm good at.

Pardon me.

two ball off the seven, double bank into
the far corner.

Good luck

with the new gig.

You coming, Dan?

You guys go ahead. I'll be up in a
minute.

Hey, guys, now, I'm counting on you to
come down here and keep me up to date on

things, you know, like when we get new
presidents and stuff.

Great bunch of kids, huh?

Yeah, right.

So... You're not a judge anymore.

That's right.

You twerp!

I beg your pardon?

You thimp.

You pathetic, whining, wheezing, jack
-assed twig.

I get the feeling you're trying to tell
me something, Dan.

What the hell am I supposed to do now?

You? Yes.

I just get you broken into where I can
handle you, and now I gotta take my

chances with some new judge.

Oh, to your point.

What are the chances of me getting
somebody as naive and as ignorant as you

again?

I don't know. What? 50 -60 to 1, maybe?
Wait a minute. Do you think I'm kidding

around here or what? Dan, I really don't
care. Why don't you just shut your

beady little face?

You had a couple of bad nights.

Is that any reason to just quit? Throw
it all away.

It wasn't a couple of bad nights, Dan.

A kid got shot.

Now, you tell me that if I go back...
That's not going to happen again.

It will happen again, eventually.

We can only do what the law will allow
us to do. That's it. That ain't good

enough for me. Oh, of course, I
understand you want to change a little

into wine once in a while, cure a few
blind men here and there.

Dan, I can't go back.

I can't do it.

It's too hard.

Maybe it is.

I wouldn't know.

Maybe all of those people you helped
when they needed it don't make up for

few that you couldn't.

I'll give your respects to the
downtrodden and the oppressed. I'm sure

understand. You're not playing fair,
Dan.

You were good, Harry.

Very good.

You were impartial.

You were fair.

Patient.

Compassionate.

Understanding.

And I admired you.

That's really getting below the belt,
isn't it?

Ciao, baby.

He's right, you know. What?

You were good.

Mr... Ray.

Yeah, Ray, this is not... Ray Muntz. I
was in your courtroom for sleeping in

park.

Yeah, you were smiling and making jokes.

You said that benches weren't good for
my posture.

I remember.

You should. It was funny.

Did I help you?

No. You gave me a fine.

But you also did something else I'll
never forget.

You talked to me.

You know, the other judges, they just
shove your file aside and move on, but

you, you spent some time with me.

And that felt nice.

So I remember, too, Your Honor.

I remember it like it was yesterday.

It was yesterday.

Oh.

Where does the time go?

an awfully long time.

I'm not going to be one to disturb him.
Last time I said something, he nearly

bit my head off.

How long are we just going to stand
here?

It does look awfully immobile, doesn't
it?

Well, we've got to do something.

Excuse me, is there a doctor here?

Yeah, I'm a doctor.

Sir, can you help us?

Sure.

He's dead.

Say he's been dead a good five minutes.

Amazing as it seems, this happened to us
once.

Bob's Uncle Teddy came over for
Christmas dinner one year and dropped

right into the stuffing.

I never got to open my presents.

You never had any presents.

We had to give that back to Grandma,
darling.

She couldn't wear the eye patch forever.

I guess we're going to have to call for
another judge.

Well, what about this one?

Let's put him out in the hall. Somebody
will pick him up eventually.

Oh, why does this junk always have to be
dumped on me?

Now, this could take hours, and I got
tickets to the Jets game tonight.

You got tickets? Yeah, a pair on the 50
-yard line.

Oh.

for a single in the end zone.

Our grief appears to be inconsolable.
Oh, ain't no use in hanging around here.

Wait a minute!

Paragraph 6, Section 27 of the New York
City Municipal Code clearly states that

no session of criminal or civil court
may be recessed or dismissed unless so

ordered by the magistrate presiding over
said session.

Bull.

is dead.

Drive safely, everybody!

Uh, yeah, hi.

Yeah, this is, uh, Mack Robinson of
Arraignment Court 2.

It looks like we're gonna need a
replacement judge to replace our

judge.

I know it's the third in 24 hours.

You kidding?

We set a record.

Hi, guys.

Let me put you on hold for a sec.

How's it going?

I went home. I got washed up.

Drive this emo.

Well, it's nice to see everything the
way I left it.

Except, of course, for the dead guy on
my bench.

That would be Judge Kemp.

Yeah, well, he's got my gavel and he
won't let go of it.

And I guess I'll be needing it.

I say, I guess I'll be needing it.

I've decided to come back to work.

I'm real sorry I shouted at everybody,
and I'm sorry I acted like a two -legged

lobotomized jackass.

I think we could buy that one.

Oh, we'll come back here.

Guys, I am sorry.

I guess it is as simple as taking the
good with the bad, no matter how bad the

bad gets.

If you're sure you want to be a judge.

I am sure.

At least I know I'm not the best pool
player in the world.

You should see me when I have my own
cue.

Come on, let's go and see if we can
retrieve his gavel.

Your Honor.

Miss Sullivan.

I've really come to appreciate these
little chats of ours.

Glad to have you back, sir. Feeling
mutual, Mr. Robinson?

I'm real glad you guys were there.

Especially him.

Dan?

That man is the reason I'm standing
here.

He made me want this job more than
anything I've ever wanted in my entire

Dan? Fielding?

Would you excuse us, ma 'am?

Yeah. Yes, sir.

I'll just go tidy up your room a little
bit.

All right.

It's good to see you, Harry.

I owe you big, counselor.

It was an honor, sir.

No, I mean it, Dan.

From the bottom of my heart to the tip
of my

beanie little face.

All I had to do was tell

him what I was going to do.

Got your tongue?

That happens to me sometimes.

I just have so much to say, I can't say
anything, I guess.

I know the feeling.

You mind if I ask you what it was you
were gonna say?

Welcome back.

I can see why that would be tough to put
into words.

You are very good up there.

And big hearts are hard to find these
days.

Well, I may be a pig, but...

I'm a concerned pig.

You know, sir, if you're going to feel
sorry for every person that comes in

here, you're not going to last very
long.

Yeah.

I am beginning to understand that.

I mean, I know I haven't been up there
as long as you have, but I have managed

to develop a detachment from my work,
and there's no reason why you can't,

Ready any time you are, miss.

Are you sure we ain't putting you out?

We'd be thrilled to sleep in your trunk.

You're breeding them for pets, aren't
you?
