  Ann Kelsey : I'm down to my last motion.

  Tommy Mullaney : Ann, they gotta revoke your Sierra Club membership because you're defending loggers?

  Ann Kelsey : This time, the logging company is not at fault. The tree spiker caused the accident.

  Cara Jean 'C.J.' Lamb : Oh, no.

  Roxanne Melman : Can we move on, people?

  Ann Kelsey : Thanks for the encouragement, guys.

  Roxanne Melman : Okay, People, listen up! Now, Jonathan's got the McFarlane deposition, C.J.'s got Jackson vs. Foo, Tommy, you're downtown on the Velascos arraignment. Okay, any questions? That's it, we're adjourned.
