In Shanaya’s home:

Chia: Come on, you guys, stop backing away from me.

Shanaya, I know you’re a ninja or blackbelt or something else totally pawsome. But I can run faster than you. Besides, I didn’t come here to hurt anyone. Quite the opposite! Sissie, I had to clear things up between us. I need you to know that I didn’t put that pillow on your head. I’m telling the truth. I would never ever hurt you, at least not on purpose. You’re my sister and, well, uh, it’s hard for me to say, but… I love you. You’re part of my pack, an important part, and well, geez this is hard to say…you’re my sister. Please come home with me.

Xena: *sob and happy wags* I love you too! Let’s go home
Chia: You can stop hugging me now.

Back in court…

Xena: Judge Lucy, please don’t put Chia in jail! She’s my sister and I need her.
Chia: You can stop hugging me now, Xena.
Judge Lucy: Chia, you admitted guilt on deading- or at least attempting to deadie – Ludwig. Even though Ludwig will never be the same, he has sent word that he does not want to see you prosecuted. He understands it’s just in a dog’s nature. Admitting what you did even in the face of consequences was a growth moment in itself for you.
There was no proof in attempted stuffie deading of two other stuffies.
Xena believes that you love her and didn’t try to hurt her. She thinks she may have twisted around in her sleep and the pillow fell over her face.

Chia: So what’s the bottom line, Judge Judy, er, Lucy?

Judge Lucy: 1. On charges of attempted first degree stuffie deading: guilty and pardoned. 2. On charges of attempted stuffie deading: charges dropped. 3. On charges of attempted murder of your sister: not guilty. Case dismissed.
Chia: Let the whole world rejoice! (Well, at least all my friends!)

Peace on earth, good will toward men and dogs and stuffies.

Chia: Xena, we’re home. You can stop hugging me now.

The end.

Judge Lucy: Since we do not have a state or local prosecutor, I will show the next piece of evidence. Chia, you were caught on video attacking and deading Ludwig. President Larry Lemur, please show us the videos.

President Larry Lemur: Your Honor Lucy and animals and stuffies of the court, do any of you dispute that the dog in this video is our defendant, Chia? If so, speak or woof now. *prolonged silence*
I believe you can clearly see what Chia was doing when she thought she was not being watched.

Next is the video of when she realized she had been filmed during her crime against a stuffie, and this is where she tried to cover it up by stating that she had found Ludwig torn apart like this, with his stuffing hanging out.

Judge Lucy: Defendant Chia, I will give you one more chance to try to redeem yourself by entering a different plea.

Chia: But, but…I thought no one saw and then it wouldn’t count. And hey! You said this is a mock trial!! What about that!

Judge Lucy: Yes, we had set it up that way until the hard evidence of these two videos appeared in my email from an anonymous source.

meanwhile…

Xexe in Hospital Room in Bavaria: I’ll be right here with you, Ludwig. I’m going to try to get a little shut-eye in this chair the kind nurse had brought in for me, but just say my name – either of my names – and I’ll help you with whatever you need.

Ludwig: You are still my love, XeXe or Xena or whatever lovely moniker you wish for me to call you. After all, a rose by any other name is still a rose, and you, my Xena Schnauzer, by any other name, are still my love. Your beautiful face is always in my heart and will live in my soul forever, and…

Xexe: *snore*

*back at the courtroom*
