Diana: Goodbye, Lee.

Lee: Augh!

Rae: Whew. (Lee exits, then re-enters frame)

Lee: And for your information, I prefer sugar-free, artificial sweeteners made by man!

Diana: I'm sorry about all that.

Lee: (re-enters again)

Lee: I know it's got an aftertaste! I like it!

Berry: I always felt there was some kind of barrier between Lee and us. I couldn't overcome it. Oh, well.

Rae: Are you 4 going to be okay for the trial tomorrow?

Y/N: Oh, I believe Mr. Montgomery is about out of ideas.

Layton: We would like to call Ms. Y/N L/N Bee to the stand.

Adam: Now that's a good idea. You can really see why he's considered one of the very best lawyers...

Loki: Yeah.

Mr Gammil: Layton, you've gotta weave some magic with this jury, or it's gonna be all over.

Layton: Oh don't worry Mr. Gammil. The only thing I have to do to turn this jury around is to remind them of what they don't like about bees. - You got the tweezers? -

Mr Gammil: Are you allergic?

Montgomery: Only to losing, son. Only to losing.

Layton: Ms. Y/N L/N Bee, I'll ask you what I think we'd all like to know. What exactly is your relationship to those women?

Y/N: We're friends.

Layton: Good friends?

Y/N: Yes.

Layton: How good?

Y/N: What?

Layton: Do you live together?

Y/N: Wait a minute this isn't about...

Layton: Are you their little...bedbug?

Y/N: Hey, that's not the kind of?

Montgomery: I've seen a bee documentary or two. Now from what I understand, doesn't your queen give birth to all the bee children in the hive?

Y/N: Yeah, but...

Layton: So those aren't even your real parents!

F/N: Oh, Y/N...

Y/N: Yes, they are!

Maddie: Hold me back!

Layton: You're an illegitimate bee, aren't you, L/N?

Maddie: He's denouncing bees!

Layton: And don't y'all date your cousins?

Diana: Objection!

Maddie: I'm going to pincushion this guy!

Loki: Maddie, don't! It's what he wants!

Layton: Oh, I'm hit!! Oh, lordy, I am hit!

Judge: Order! Order! Please!

Layton: The venom! The venom is coursing through my veins!

Judge: Mr. Montgomery!

Layton: I have been felled by a winged beast of destruction! You see? You can't treat them like equals! They're striped savages! Stinging's the only thing they know! It's their way!

Loki: Maddie, stay with me, darling, I can't lose you.

Maddie: I can't feel my legs.

Bailiff: Take it easy.
