Judge Bex is angling for a seat on the Supreme Court, so she’s handing some of her caseload to two new judge apprentices: Connor and Lauren. On go the robes (satin black for Connor, hot pink with sparkles for Lauren), and they deliver their first ever verdicts.

But first, a case from the other side of the world. Neve, in New Zealand, is taking Dad to court over her dream of a black Labrador, and she’s already picked out a name: Boysenberry. She’d walk it, take it to the beach and play with it, and she already helps out with next door’s dog.

Dad has come with notes. He grew up with a dog and would love one, but Mum is more of a cat person, the family rents, and then there’s the small matter of mornings: Neve’s first words every day are “can I have five more minutes?” Neve rolls her eyes through most of it. Will Boysenberry be moving in…?

Then it’s over to the apprentices. Ruby’s trick-or-treat bucket was full on Friday and half empty by Monday, and Dad says he was only checking the sweets were safe. Poppy’s grandad invents new rules whenever he’s losing at Snakes and Ladders, like snakes only counting on Tuesdays. And Harvey’s favourite hoodie keeps turning up in big sister Mia’s room, smelling of her perfume. Can Connor and Lauren judge like Judge Bex? And should they be asking for a pay rise…?
