ANNOUNCER:
Today on Chrissy's Court,

Cynthia Taylor is suing friend Gigi Moisé

for impound fees and a key replacement,

after Gigi got Cynthia's car towed

and lost the key.

Gigi is countersuing

for unpaid cat-sitting fees

because, well, you'll find out.

The people are real.

The cases are real.

And the judgments are legally binding,

no matter how unqualified the judge is.

- This is Chrissy's Court.

[dramatic music plays]

- All rise...

to the Honorable Judge Chrissy Teigen.

- Hello, hello!

PEPPER: Hi.
- Hello, Mother.

Ah, you may all be seated.

- They're our case of the day.

- Thank you.
[singsongy]: Case of the day!

PEPPER:
Yeah.

CHRISSY: So, Cynthia?
- Yes.

- You are suing Gigi?

- Yep.

- Uh, Cynthia,
explain your case.

- Oh, yeah, I had
a family emergency.

And Gigi had offered
to check up on Smoogler,

my kitty.
- Can I see a picture of Smoogler?

- Yes, you may. Here.
- I don't know why,
but I just love animals.

Oh, Smoogies!

Super cute cat.

- Yeah, he's my baby.

- And, Gigi, your sole job
is a caretaker for animals?

- Yes. I do watch dogs.
- Okay.

- I love all animals,
you know what I'm saying?

- Okay, so, Cynthia, continue.

- In-in leaving so quickly,

'cause of an emergency in the family,

I forgot to get his treats for him.

- "Treats"?
- Yeah.

- So, Smoogler has specific treats

that Smoogler must have.
- Yes, he does treats--
dry food, wet food.

And he has, like, a water
fountain water bowl and...

- [laughs]
Okay, high maintenance.

CYNTHIA: He's-- that's my baby.
- A running water bowl,

a running water bowl constantly running.

- I didn't even know cats
had to be taken care of,

so this is all new to me.
I thought you could just

leave a cat for, like, a week.
- Right.

- A month. [laughs]
- Yeah. I mean, a year.

- He doesn't drink the water
if it's not running.

- Well, Smoogs has fine taste,
and I think we would all do that

if we had the option...
granted to us by Cynthia.

- Anyways, uh, so I told her
to take my car

and go to Petco and get
the treats for him.

And she took my car

and she ended up venturing off
to visit a friend,

and parked my car in a red zone.

It got impounded.

That cost me $678.20,

which I have the receipt for you.

- Yes, I would love to see the receipts.
- Okay, all right.

And then she lost my keys.

PEPPER:
Oh.

- My God! Okay.

Gigi, you are countersuing
for $1,400, the amount

Cynthia owes for watching the cat Smoogler

for seven days straight at $200 a day.

Holy shit. $200 a day?

- It's like a Beverly Hills cat.

- Well... I'm about to learn
a ton of shit, I think.

So, now I want to hear your side.

- I feel like I need to get paid.

My time is not for free.

Gigi, what do you typically charge?

Did you charge her less than
what you would charge a...

client?
- I have some receipts here,
you know, for the time

I had her cat and the cat food

and the cat box I had
to bring to my house.

- What is she talking about?
- I had to go to big measures

to get that cat in my house
and make the cat

feel comfortable.
- You took my cat to your house?

- Well, yeah, honey.

- Gigi, I asked you to go check
on my cat once a day.

- I should charge you for the bite marks.

CYNTHIA: Oh, my God.
- Let me go through Gigi's fees here.

- Hello, hello.
- She says there's a one-time fee of $73.

- Hello.
- A $875 overnight fee.

- And she got a $25 discount.
She got lucky.

- You had to buy a cat box?
- Yeah,

it needs to litter somewhere.
- She wouldn't have to

if you hadn't taken him anywhere.

- And my house smells like litter.

I forgot to add the cleaning lady.

- Oh, God.
- How about that?

- Okay, what is this "break fee"?
- Um, my break fee.

- So, you get paid for working
and then also get paid

for not working?
- Yeah.

- [laughter]
- Oh,

Mom's loving it, personally.

Okay, but, Gigi, you know

you know...
- What?

- You owe for this car
and the impound fees.

- I'm gonna say I didn't know
where I parked,

I lost the keys,
and I didn't know what happened.

And that was it.
- Wait, where did you go?

- I went to a friend's place and,

like, I got kind of wasted
and I lost my keys and my phone.

- Honestly, that happens
to me a few times a month.

GIGI:
Tell me about it.

And when I came back, the car was gone.

How do I know she didn't have a copy,

she had her boyfriend take it,

and then just hid the car...
- [scoffs] Serious?

- and then charge me for this fee...?

- Yeah, there's no guessing game on this.

Like, we actually have
paperwork for it, so...
- Oh, okay.

It wasn't my fault
that the red zone was there.

I didn't know it was there.

- I mean, the impound
was your fault, though.

- You know, it could've been.

But I don't feel like it is!
- It was!

- I didn't see the red zone.

- "It could've been"!
[laughs]

GIGI:
I didn't know where I parked, okay?

But, you know, I had a hard time
taking care of that cat,

so I actually had to borrow
some of her watches.

- Watches are also involved in this now?

- Well, she didn't know about those yet.

- What is... what's the watch deal?

- So, I needed money because
of her cat needed some stuff,

and I didn't have the money to cover it,

so I actually took two watches
and pawned them.

- Are you serious?
My watches in the drawer?

- Sure did.
- Those were my grandmother's
watches, Gigi.

- I pawned them--
I got the receipts right here.

- Those were heirlooms.
- Hold on, Cynthia?

I want to let you know that
we actually have the watches.

They're safe and sound.

- At least I didn't sell 'em.

- Uh, that's an actual felony
you committed by stealing

the watches.
- [laughter]

- Um...

Okay, so, wow, this is a lot to take in.

[suspenseful music playing]

Okay, so, Cynthia, I am going
to award you these watches back.

Gigi, I have to, I'm-I'm gonna
dismiss this countersuit.

But we're doing you a solid here...

[laughs]
on letting the felony go.

And, uh, you, you owe for this car.

I'm gonna rule in favor
of the plaintiff for $838.20.

But, Gigi, I appreciate your spirit.

- I need to get paid.
- Court is adjourned.

- Can I get the watches back?

- Thank you guys very much.

- Thank you very much.
[gallery clapping]

[funky music playing]

- She just stole two watches.

Part of it is, like,
the confession alone, like,

the confidence in saying, like,
"Yeah, I took those watches."

- I'm scared of her.
- [laughter]

- She shouldn't have got that car

and the watches and her money.

I got nothing but a felony washed off.

I could've done that myself.

- Would I ever let her,
uh, watch my cat again?

No, and I wouldn't recommend her
to anyone.
