Its Socks
Page 64
A secret memo, code named SnuggleGate, revealed Socky had met with cartel leader Lavendula Slip, a perfumed sheet with ties to the underground scent laundering ring.
The Fallout
The Cold Wash Party demanded an investigation, citing "scent-based corruption."
The Hot Dry Coalition defended Socky, claiming the sheets were "essential allies in the war against cling."
Gerald the lint filter leaked classified fluff to the press, sparking a media frenzy led by “The Spin Times.”
The Trial
Socky stood trial in the Supreme Fold, presided over by Judge Iron. The courtroom was tense. Velcro kept sticking to the bailiff. Zippers refused to zip it. And Snap kept snapping under pressure.
In a dramatic twist, Socky removed a hidden dryer sheet from his heel and declared, "I am not corrupted. I am conditioned!"
The jury, composed entirely of mismatched socks, voted unanimously; Not guilty by reason of static necessity.
