64 THE ADVOCATE
VOL. 80 PART 1 JANUARY 2022
Dylan: I know what you’re thinking, but there ain’t a thing you can
do about it, so let us just agree to agree.70
Chaser: Agree to what?
Dylan: Let me be myself.71
Chaser: How do you suggest we settle this?
Dylan: You go your way and I go mine.72
Chaser: Then my clients would be exactly where they were before
they started this lawsuit. What do they save?
Dylan: Costs.73
Chaser: Then what do I get out of this exercise?
Dylan: You can carry all my thoughts with you.74
Chaser: I have no further questions.
Judge: I’m sure there are no questions in re-direct, so Mr. Dylan,
you are free to step down.
Dylan: It’s all over now?75
Judge: Yes. I believe you are correct again, Mr. Dylan. The only difficult
issue for me to address at this point is the amount of
costs I will be awarding you. Keep on keepin’ on!
Dylan: May you always know the truth, and see the lights surrounding
you.76
