Hand-Knit Justice

**A Law Story**

> **You:** First case: a messy property dispute. The defendant borrowed a sweater from her ex and never returned it. That's a crime.
>
>

The ending dialogue takes place with a pink-haired lawyer named Molly.

> **You:** The case file says the sweater was borrowed at 11 p.m. Not good for our defendant. People get cold at that time. She had motive.
>
>

> **Other:** Maybe we can spin it... she was cold... she needed that sweater!
>
>

> **You:** I like it! Yes... it was self defense! Now we're getting somewhere.
>
>

### A+ Advocate

Starting Dialogue:

> **You:** We need a new plan. Our defendant's been apprehended after trying to skip town. It's all over the news.
>
>

> **Other:** What?! Oh no... a high speed chase?
>
>

> **You:** This case has become a huge media circus. The pressure must have cracked her like a hard-boiled egg.
>
>

### Able Attorney

> **You:** All these reporters hounding us is getting exhausting. How do you handle it?
>
>

> **Other:** You get used to it. You might even grow to like the attention like I do. It's as popular as I'm gong to get!
>
>

### Junior Jurist

Starting Dialogue:

> **You:** I think I've put together a pretty solid defense for or defendant, but it's still missing some pieces.
>
>

> **Other:** I got a call from an anonymous tipster saying she might have a recording that could help our case.
>
>

> **You:** Sounds promosing... and mysterious....
>
>

Ending Dialogue:

> **Other:** I know this case is a big one. I'd understand if you want me to take the lead on it. Just let me know.
>
>

> **You:** What? No way, I'm just getting warmed up. I appreciate the offer, but I can handle it.
>
>

### Courtroom Sleuth

Starting Dialogue:

> **You:** I'm going to meet with that anonymous tipster who said she had evidence for us. She said it could help our case.
>
>

> **Other:** Let's hope it isn't a hoax! People love coming forward with fake tips, especially in juicy trials like ours.
>
>

Ending Dialogue:

> **Other:** Ugh, the media circus around this case is getting out of hand. I hope your meeting with the tipster went well.
>
>

> **You:** It did! The recording she has is legit! This case is as good as ours.
>
>

### Deft Defender

Starting Dialogue:

> **You:** We've received new evidence! A voicemail left from the ex refers to the borrowed/stolen item as "his" sweater.
>
>

> **Other:** Looks like we've got a case of potential common law property.
>
>

> **You:** Put on a pot of coffee. We have a case to build!
>
>

Ending Dialogue:

> **You:** Trial days always are nerve-racking. I think we've built a strong case, though. Let's do this!
>
>

> **Other:** Days like this make my law degree worth the massive accumulation of student loan debt.
>
>

### Junior Partner

Starting Dialogue:

> **You:** Alright. We have solid evidence. Now I just need to craft the perfect opening and closing arguments.
>
>

> **Other:** Remember to rehearse with the plant. They're great for that!
>
>

Ending Dialogue:

> **You:** Thanks! Working on a big case like this really put a lot of things into perspective for me.
>
>

### Courtroom Champ

Starting Dialogue:

> **You:** We won the case! The judge sent over a "Not Guilty" verdict.
>
>

> **Other:** That's amazing!
>
>

> **You:** It's been a rollercoaster. I'll be glad finally to put this case to rest and get out of the public eye for a while.
>
>

Ending Dialogue:

> **Other:** We've got another hot case! An office worker is suing a coworker over stolen sandwiches. A real pickle.
>
>

> **You:** The defendant really is going to be stuck in the middle on that one. Time to dish up some justice!
>
