{{Tapped Out Judge Snyder Icon}}
{{TB|Mr. Dinero, are you seriously suggesting your fighting robot client's injury was not sustained in a robot fight, but in a traffic accident?}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon}}
{{TB|Your honor, it's not a suggestion — my client WAS injured while crossing a Springfield street.}}
{{Tapped Out Blue-Haired Lawyer Icon}}
{{TB|But…his client, Carnage Destructicus, at the time of the said "accident" was engaged in an epic clash with several other gigantic robots. It was live on the news!}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|And just for clarity purposes, where did this epic showdown take place?}}
{{Tapped Out Blue-Haired Lawyer Icon}}
{{TB|I don't see how that's relevant to the case…}}
{{Tapped Out Judge Snyder Icon}}
{{TB|Well, I'd like to know!}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon}}
{{TB|The fight occurred on a crosswalk.}}
{{Tapped Out Blue-Haired Lawyer Icon|Confused}}
{{TB|Well, technically, yes. However, again I don't see how that's germane to the…}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon}}
{{TB|Your Honor, that school bus went through a red light and hit my client while he was crossing the street. Sure, he was fighting against other evil robots while crossing the street. But the fact-of-the-matter is: his mechanical feet were within the boundaries of the crosswalk and it was indeed the pedestrian's turn to cross the road.}}
{{Tapped Out Judge Snyder Icon}}
{{TB|Those are all good points.}}
{{Tapped Out Judge Snyder Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Considering this unusual circumstance, I find myself favoring the plaintiff, Carnage Destructicus, and awarding him damages amounting to $500,000 for the injuries he sustained by the reckless driving of one Otto Mann of Springfield Elementary.}}
{{Tapped Out Chalmers Icon|Angry}}
{{TB|Skin-NER! That money is coming out of your school's budget!}}
{{Tapped Out Skinner Icon|Stern}}
{{TB|Ott-o! That money is coming out of your salary!}}
{{Tapped Out Chalmers Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Skinner…you can't take money out of his salary. That would be highly illegal.}}
{{Tapped Out Carnage Destructicus Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|Roberto, you did it! Outstanding! In my quest to obliterate humans, I never thought I'd feel such regard for the human lawyer. I am most impressed by your navigation of the slow but powerful gears of the American legal system.}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon}}
{{TB|Thanks, Mr. Destructicus… Now, if you'll excuse me, I must extend my services to other potential 'street fighters'.}}
{{Tapped Out Carnage Destructicus Icon|Surprised}}
{{TB|But aren't you already representing my fellow mechanized mates?}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|Indeed, but a lawyer's job is never done — especially when robot-induced chaos is just another Thursday.}}

{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Suspicious}}
{{TB|Mr. Dinero, are you orchestrating accidents just to drum up business for your shady law practice?}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|What? Of course not, young lady. I'm merely practicing my right to…um, enhance the environment artistically. {{*}}tosses banana peel onto sidewalk{{*}}}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Shocked}}
{{TB|You're LITTERING! In Springfield, that's like our third worst environmental crime, right after our toxic waste-filled river and our tire fire that never stops burning!}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|Eh, littering, schmittering. It's small potatoes. Or should I say, small banana peels. {{*}}laughs{{*}}}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Angry}}
{{TB|That's it! Your cavalier attitude towards our town and its environmental and safety laws is appalling. I'm taking you to court, Mr. Dinero!}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon}}
{{TB|{{*}}chuckling{{*}} A court battle with an eight-year-old? Don't you have to get your parents' permission to sue me?}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon}}
{{TB|Probably. But for $5 Bart will sign anything with Homer's signature.}}
{{Tapped Out Bart Icon}}
{{TB|$10.}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Confused}}
{{TB|What? Since when?}}
{{Tapped Out Bart Icon}}
{{TB|Hey don't blame me, blame inflation.}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Defeated}}
{{TB|Fine, here's $10.}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Brace yourself, Mr. Dinero, because you're about to learn a lesson in civic responsibility.}}

{{Tapped Out Blue-Haired Lawyer Icon}}
{{TB|Your honor, we will prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant willfully littered on the street. And I'm not just talking about any old litter. We're dealing with the holy trinity of dangerous trash here: a banana peel, a bucket of marbles, and a truckload of tiny toy cars.}}
{{Tapped Out Judge Snyder Icon}}
{{TB|Really? A littering case? If I had known this was on my docket I would have extended my vacation in Costa Rica.}}
{{Tapped Out Blue-Haired Lawyer Icon}}
{{TB|Judge Snyder, I've taken the case pro bono. And I never do that.}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Your honor, this so-called lawyer has had a vendetta against me ever since I wiped the floor with him earlier today in a separate case.}}
{{Tapped Out Judge Snyder Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Fine, let's just hurry it up. If my wife gets home before me, I lose custody of the remote control for the night. And I can't suffer through another "Real Housewives of Potomac Reunion".}}

{{TB|Permission to call our surprise witness, your honor.}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon|Surprised}}
{{TB|Surprise witness? No one told me about this.}}

{{TB|If we had, it wouldn't have been a surprise.}}

{{TB|Sorry, Mr. Dinero. That Lisa girl is scary and convincing. But me and my raccoon, Randy, saw everything. Well, he saw everything and told me about it.}}
{{Tapped Out Roberto Dinero Icon|Confused}}
{{TB|So, really your star witness is a raccoon named Randy?! Yeah, I'm not too worried.}}
