The great Gildrsleeve couldn't get over the shock when he took lonely old judge Hooker chicken fricassee and found him eating caviar and the judge was about as lonely as Santa Claus in a toy department full of kids, he was hobnobbing with bigwigs. Gildy was annoyed that he wasn't considered key enough to be invited to his party and he and the judge have a few words and end up feuding. Oh dear what's happened to the Christmas spirit!
