| Props: | Optional chairs for courtroom setting |
| Notes: | Can be done with 3 or more 'scruffy guys'; the 'Peanuts' punchline works best when the last Scout looks visibly roughed up. |
[Judge:] Order in the court! Order in the court! Bring in the first case!
([Bailiff] escorts in [Scruffy Guy #1].)
[Judge:] What's your problem?
[Scruffy Guy #1:] Duh, I like to throw Peanuts against walls! Hic!
[Judge:] 30 days psychiatric treatment! Next!
([Bailiff] brings in [Scruffy Guy #2].)
[Judge:] What's your problem?
[Scruffy Guy #2:] Duh, I like to throw Peanuts out the window!
[Judge:] 30 days psychiatric treatment! Next!
([Bailiff] brings in [Scruffy Guy #3].)
[Judge:] Oh, not another-what's your problem?
[Scruffy Guy #3:] Duh, I like to throw Peanuts into a lake!
[Judge:] 30 days psychiatric treatment! Why do they send me all the loonies? Next!
([Bailiff] brings in [Peanuts]-very scruffy, shirt torn, limping or crawling.)
[Judge:] (Exasperated sigh.) What's your problem?
[Peanuts:] I'm Peanuts... (collapses.)
