Harvey Richards Lawyer For Children Harvey: Better get a paper route, kid. I'm not cheap. Mouthpiece For The Monkeybars Set A practice in children's law is not all glamour and excitement, as we learn in this episode, it has its seedy side as well. Harvey: Lisa, I'll be in conference with Mikey Munroe. Lisa: Yes, Mr. Richards. Harvey: Hello, Mikey. What seems to be the problem? Mikey: Well, everyone in my class says I farted on the bus, but I DIDN'T! Harvey: False accusation of flatulation. Very serious. Mind if I open a window? Mikey: No... Harvey: NOW, tell me everything that happened. Mikey: I just said I smelled something funny, and everyone said I did it! Harvey: I can't help you, MIKEY! Under the doctrine of "HE WHO SMELT IT, DEALT IT," you are guilty!! Mikey: B-but I thought you could get me off by arguing the alternative doctrine of "HE WHO DENIED IT, SUPPLIED IT..." Harvey: Goddamnit, don't give me that "legal realism" crap! Now get out of here! Little farter. Harvey: Hold all calls! Oh, and Lisa? Lisa: Yes? Harvey: We may need some air freshener for the conference room.
I must have missed that issue – used to be a NL fan from the very beginning up until they became totally commercial and sold their souls. I am enjoying these vintage comics though. Vintage? 1990? Right!
