Ma'am, you mean.
Yes Man lowers its arm, and the brightness of its screen dims.
Excellent! Now we just need to know what this man is here for!
dead devotion-has not even noticed Zeke's existence to begin with-
T-there's a very important reason for my being here! I was sent with orders straight from the Chief of Police... h-he said, 'We need unbiased lawyers! Go to that weird, dumpy shack and get everyone there rounded up! Bring them down here on the double!'
-strikes up an overeager salute- S-so here I am! Officer Meekins, reporting in!
-Jasper- Y-yessir! I mean, yes ma'am, sir!
UN JOUR JE SERAI DE RETOUR PRÈS DE TOII'm going to guess we got some questions.
LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!"A...lawyer?"
"Ha! Child's play for the greatest mind on the planet!"
You're looking for a lawyer?
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?That's the worst idea I've ever heard.
I hope we have some adequate transport...
At this point, Yes Man's — "hands" come together, as if to clasp them, if he had fingers. The face on the monitor changes to a toothy grin, eyes downcast.
"Unbiased" lawyers? Uh, heh... are you sure that this is the place the chief had in mind?

dead devotion-Speaking of child's play-

There's been a very high-profile, hush-hush important murder! Our current legal teams are understaffed... we'll need to get you all organized into the prosecution and defense teams as Deputized Junior Lawyers With No Degrees... I call them D.J.L.W.N.D.s for short!
-Lydia- Y-you'll have to bring it up with the Chief himself, sir... but he's a very busy man, so you'll have to make an appointment too!
-Yes Man- A-absolutely, sir!! He gave me very clear, specific instructions... and it was a direct order!
-sees Liman, his eyes widening-
Oh no! I missed one...!
-immediately whips out his megaphone- WILL THE SMALL CHILD PLEASE EXIT THE DOMICILE AT HER EARLIEST CONVENIENCE
-Athena- NO SIR! THIS ISN'T A JURY TRIAL AT ALL, SIR! I MEAN REAL, BONA FIDE, LAWYERS!

The face flickers back to the original.

dead devotion"Well...I've investigated a crime before. I guess I can be on-"
"Prosecution prosecution prosecution!"
-Eggman starts wildly flailing his arm in the air to emphasize this-
What kind of crime means you need teams of lawyers this big?
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?What he said! I would also like to be on the prosecution.
dead devotionLiman jolts away from the window, ducking before re-appearing as she peeks out again-and reluctantly, steps out of the door as well, sizing up the others- and the loud policeman-
".......Lawyers...? For-what case?"

LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!......?
-He pokes his head back out of the pod-
.......What's this about them being lawyers?
"-EAR COVER- Ow- ow- loud!"
Is this pro bono?
"... Oh! Good. This isn't evac, then, right?"
