WHAT YOU NEED

SETUP
Deal each player a Character Card, the matching Reveal Card, and an Energy Marker.
Choose the courtroom roles:
- Supreme Bitch: Judge
- Defendant: Player to the Judge’s left
- Prosecutor: Player to the Defendant’s left
- Defense Attorney: Player to the Defendant’s right
- Everyone Else: Jury
The Judge selects a charge from The Dirty Little Docket or invents something even more incriminating.
THE TRIAL
Everyone stays in character using their Character Card, Reveal Card, and Energy Marker.
-
The Charge
The Judge announces the Defendant’s alleged crime. -
The Prosecution — 30 Seconds
The Prosecutor explains why the Defendant is guilty. -
The Defense — 30 Seconds
The Defense Attorney explains why the Defendant is innocent—or at least too fabulous to convict. -
The Witness — 15 Seconds
The Judge selects one Jury member to give surprise testimony. -
The Final Plea — 15 Seconds
The Defendant makes one final argument.
THE VERDICT
The Jury votes simultaneously:
- Guilty: The Defendant and Defense Attorney drink.
- Not Guilty: The Prosecutor drinks.
- Tie: The Judge delivers the corrupt final ruling.
OBJECTION!
Once during the trial, any player may yell:
“OBJECTION!”
The Judge immediately rules:
- Sustained: The person speaking must change their argument.
- Overruled: The person who objected drinks.
COURT ADJOURNED
One trial completes a case.
To open another case, rotate the courtroom roles, select a new charge, and put another questionable character on trial.
There is no final winner.
THE COURT IS CORRUPT.

QUESTIONS & CHAOS CONTROL
WHO CAN YELL “VOGUE”?
Anyone, at any time. Surprise is part of the chaos.
CAN SOMEONE YELL IT DURING ANOTHER ROUND?
Absolutely. If the group can hear it, everyone must serve.
WHAT IF TWO PEOPLE TIE FOR BEST SERVE?
The Supreme Bitch chooses a winner or demands a sudden-death pose-off.
WHEN DOES THE SUPREME BITCH CHANGE?
Rotate after each round, after every three calls, or whenever the group demands new judgment.
WHAT IF NOBODY SERVES?
Everyone loses. The Supreme Bitch calls an immediate redemption round.
NON-DRINKING OPTION
Replace drinking with one of the following sentences:
- Deliver a public apology to the court.
- Remain in character until the next verdict.
- Perform a dramatic courtroom breakdown.
- Accept a new charge selected by the Supreme Bitch.
- Give a completely unconvincing confession.
QUESTIONS & CHAOS CONTROL
CAN THE JUDGE INVENT A CHARGE?
Yes. The Dirty Little Docket is inspiration, not a limitation.
DOES EVERYONE HAVE TO STAY IN CHARACTER?
Yes. Every argument, testimony, objection, and final plea should reflect each player’s Character Card, Reveal Card, and Energy Marker.
CAN THE DEFENDANT OBJECT?
Yes. Any player may use the trial’s single objection.
CAN MORE THAN ONE WITNESS TESTIFY?
No. The Judge selects one surprise Character Witness per trial.
WHAT IF THE JURY CANNOT AGREE?
The Judge makes the final ruling. Fairness was never promised.
HOW DO WE PLAY ANOTHER CASE?
Rotate the courtroom roles, choose a new Defendant, and select a new charge.
