Airs of the Nervous Lawyer.
| Airs | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 - 19 | She tells you about a children's book a hard-up author gave her. It concerned a partnership between a pet snake and a stray cat, and the process by which they transformed from bitter rivals into the best of friends. |

| 80 - 99 | […] a great household – laid low by a badly drafted will. A missing clause […] the house, the fortune and all the titles being left to a kitchen maid […] Without the family money, the family were unable to hire better lawyers than their former servant. |
| 100 | […] bad deal made in desperate circumstances with an unscrupulous landlord. […] mould in the bathroom, the rats in the kitchen, the errors in the inventory. […] unexpected subdivision of rooms. The battle for the deposit is a tale of horrors […]. |
