Chapter Three: The Body Doubles

"Just change your verdict." Porter groaned on the phone with the Warners' Judge, Laos. If he played the game with precision, he should get it overturned.

"The Warners cannot control themselves when they are together," Judge Laos said none-too-gently through the phone, piercing Porter's ears. "I refuse to change my verdict. Yakko Warner and Wakko Warner should turn back, I've repeated this over and over. I don't care what your reasons are."

Porter pulled his cell phone away from his ear a moment. No choice, he had to use his trump card. He brought his mouth back to his cell. "You have a young boy, correct? Graduating soon?"

No words came through the phone, had the call been dropped? Judge Laos' voice revealed itself again. "What about him?"

"I hear he's a fine young lad," Porter laid it on thick. He knew nothing about the kid, he could've picked his nose all day for all he knew. "Hasn't quite landed a job yet. What is it he really wanted to be again?"

"A producer." Judge Laos said, his words unenthusiastic. No, not enthusiastic, perhaps troubled? "If I made this problem of yours go away-temporarily only- not that I will or that I would let the Warners be together again 24/7." Judge Laos stopped again, but Porter grinned as he picked up a pencil and bounced it up and down on it's eraser. "What if I did something for now?"

"Then maybe a nice position at Warner Brothers would be to his liking?" Porter grinned, "It would raise his chances of being a successful producer."

"I warn you, they are hysterical with each other," The Judge warned him. "I will allow one month of freedom for them—one month- but that is it. Afterwards, they shall get an appeal in court. If they don't straighten up, I cannot allow them to be near each other."

"No one is perfect." Porter stopped bouncing his pencil with enthusiasm. "I'm sure they've learned their lesson, don't be so hard."

"Wakko Warner flung my toupee in the air and Yakko Warner shot it with a shotgun like a clay pigeon!" Judge Laos yelled over the phone. "That was right before I pronounced sentence. No, they have to be good in order for me to revoke it fully. Help with my son's career or not, if they are still a menace to society, they will be kept separate. Understand?"

"Fully." Porter picked up the pencil and shoved it behind his ear with pride. "Wakko Warner is on his way, his beeper should have been going off. He has gone by airplane and he should be arriving soon. Yakko should be along shortly; he's already in California. Dot has not been contacted yet." Porter listened for a last minute warning, then hung up his phone to look through papers. Another battle fought and won.

"Mr. Chairman?" One of his team knocked gently on the door and came into the room. "I have almost convinced Minerva Mink to come back."

"What do you mean almost Johnson?" Porter said as he looked up from his papers.

"She wants a partner, like you said she would. And it's Thomas, sir." His employee informed him. "Do you know who we could use?"

"Aroma Therapy, the copy." Porter simply stated as he went back to signing papers. "Have her contracts ready as well as the other two's, so hurry up and go Johnson."
