Judge Judy Season 20 Episode 56 Don't Show Up Drunk!; Mutual Combat Cruise?!
- November 13, 2015
In Judge Judy season 20 episode 56, titled "Don't Show Up Drunk!; Mutual Combat Cruise?!", viewers are taken on a wild ride as Judge Judy presides over two cases that are more than just your typical small claims disputes.
The first case involves a woman who claims that her former friend damaged her property after showing up to her housewarming party drunk. The defendant denies all accusations and claims that the plaintiff was actually the one who caused the damage. Judge Judy wastes no time getting to the bottom of the dispute, pressing both parties for evidence and testimony. As is to be expected, Judge Judy makes it clear that she will not tolerate any nonsense in her courtroom and ultimately makes a ruling that leaves one of the parties feeling very unhappy.
The second case is even more bizarre as two men recount their experiences on a "mutual combat cruise". Yes, you read that right - apparently, there are cruises where passengers sign up to engage in physical fights with each other. The men met on this cruise and ended up getting into a physical altercation. Though neither was seriously injured, one of the men now claims that the other owes him money for medical expenses resulting from the fight. Judge Judy looks utterly bewildered by this case and is not impressed with either party's justification for their behavior. This case ultimately serves as a reminder that there are all sorts of weird subcultures out there that most of us have likely never even heard of.
Throughout the episode, Judge Judy is her typical no-nonsense self, refusing to let either party get away with any flimsy excuses or lies. She asks for supporting evidence and testimony when necessary, and ultimately makes fair and just decisions based on what she hears.
Overall, "Don't Show Up Drunk!; Mutual Combat Cruise?!" is an entertaining and sometimes shockingly bizarre episode of Judge Judy that fans of the show are sure to enjoy. Whether you're a fan of small claims court dramas or just curious about the strange and sometimes absurd things people will argue about, this episode is definitely worth a watch.
