The Doyle's Speech
Jake is to be called to testify in a case that is being prosecuted by the elegant and educated hot crown prosecutor. Jake realizes that he should have something of a speech prepared with which to impress his audience, and that he should do his best to diminish his Goulds accent (so that he can appear as refined as possible for this hot mainlander). Walter, though he too has a bit of a Newfoundland accent, is enlisted to help Jake mainland-up his speech for the court appearance. Because the b'ys decide to hold their elocution lessons in the Duke over a few pints they are less effective than hoped for, and they cause Jake to forget to prepare for his appearance. Not surprisingly, Jake's fourth rate testimony wrecks the hot crown prosecutor's case, causing the perp to go free, and causing the hot crown prosecutor to be less than impressed with Jake. Fortunately for Jake, Leslie is kicking around on a back burner somewhere and just needs a phone call to be brought back into play.
