Yesterday's episode featured a man was being sued by his ex-girlfriend for the money she spent on his DUI fines and looking after his children, whom child protective services had taken away from their mom. (The children now live with the defendant's paternal grandparents.) The guy doesn't have a job, likes to party, and appeared to be high as a kite during his hearing. None of that escaped JJ, who challenged him to a drug test. Clip above.
