If You Are What You Eat

If you are what you eat your honor, then my client is an innocent child

Saul Goodman points toward the judge in a courtroom while a uniformed officer stands behind him and a cartoon cat sits at the defense table. The joke twists “you are what you eat” into a defense argument, claiming that the cat’s client is innocent because it supposedly eats innocent children. It is used as an absurd reaction to a ridiculous excuse or technically clever argument.
