Suffering County Courthouse. Team Green is closing. Blah Latin saying blah. Blah negligence blah. Blah blame someone blah. Who is to blame?
The Superheroes. Jimmy is closing. Blah convinced he's SuperBill, blah they never thought he'd try to fly blah. Bars on the windows blah. Who is in the best position to prevent what happened? Blah hospital, blah profits, blah not patients, blah not enough staff blah. Blah Deborah, blah Jimmy the Grunt, blah.
The Doctors. Aldridge is up. Blah reckless cruelty, blah drove him out the window, blah told Dr. Gorman, blah protected SuperBill blah. Okay, everyone point his or her fingers now at who you think is negligent. Exactly. Blah wife stopped caring, blah cruelty, blah hospital, and blah caring for people, blah Mrs. Muntz, blah her fault blah.
After the closing arguments, Lindsay is waiting outside the courtroom. Rod arrives. They talk shop. In a moment of pure selflessness, Bobby D found a bunch of mental hospitals that would take SuperBill in case they lose the case. Ah, isn't that sweet. He made some "calls." She's touched. It must have taken him hours to help. Lindsay: "Why did you do it?" Aw, he doesn't know, shucks, he just "fell" for the guy. Then Rod announces that they've got a new babysitter. Again, Lindsay is shocked. Oh, but Ellenor and Eugene did the interviewing. Heh. They smile at one another. Then he tries to leave, but Lindsay runs up and plants the most asexual kiss I've seen in a long time on her husband. Blah she loves him, blah she doesn't say it, blah all is forgiven in the land of Rod.
The jury is back! Everyone, including Aldridge, including Mrs. Green, including Gorman, is sitting with their hands clasped together, in exactly the same way, in front of them on the table. The verdict is handed over to the judge. She glances at it and asks the foreperson to read their findings. They find Deborah, but not Bill, negligent. This causes the gallery to give a collective "Oh!" Rudy bangs her gavel. They do find the hospital negligent. In fact, they order them to pay Mrs. Green a cool three million dollars. They ask Deborah to pay only one dollar. She is pleased, and gives Lindsay a hug. Again the gallery says, "Oh!" But wait! They're not finished yet! There is the matter of the cross-complaint. The hospital has to pay Deborah a dollar, and Bill one million dollars! SuperBill doesn't care. He's just staring straight ahead. Aldridge wants the decision set aside. Rudy refuses. She adjourns court. Hugs erupt. Then Gorman collapses. Lindsay screams for a doctor. SuperBill rips off his clothes. That's right, he's wearing the outfit. SuperBill screams, "I'm flying to the hospital to get this man a doctor!" Then he crashes himself through the freaking window. You know, I can't believe that DEK actually made him TRY TO FLY. Jimmy and Lindsay run over to see SuperBill lying splattered on a ledge about five feet underneath the window. Sigh.
