This has to be one of the best episodes of the series. Raymond Burr guest stars as Perry Mason, defending Jack on a charge of murdering a rooster. But everything goes wrong: Mason is totally incompetent. At one point Jack can't figure out how things can be going so badly, and he says that Mason always wins all his cases, but isn't winning Jack's case. Why not? Mason's answer: "Maybe I have better writers than you do."
Benny's eternal comic foil, Frank Nelson, shows up here as the prosecuting attorney, and the judge is played by Frank Wilcox, who played a judge in eight episodes of Perry Mason. The episode is priceless.
