Ellen in Spence's mock-trial

Does anyone know the name of the episode where Ellen plays "Lola Bigcups" in Spence's mock trial? The last time I saw it was on a plane from Paris to Chicago, but haven't caught it again in syndication.

I was laughing so hard, the whole plane must have gotten really annoyed.

It has the classic line:

Prosecutor: Please state your name.
Ellen: Lola Bigcups.
Prosecutor: Is that your real name?
Ellen: No, it's a stage name. My real name is Mary Bigcups.

Or something like that. :)

Someone else posted recently also asking about this episode!

It's called "Witness" and is from Season 3 (it's Episode no. 51 altogether).

that episode is so funny, I like when she takes that gavel and yells "ATTICA, ATTICA, ATTICA" I laughed so hard at that part. hahaha

This was one of my favorite eps of the series, and whever I think back about the show, it's the first one that always comes to mind. Her strip-tease dancing in court, now that is freakin' priceless.

I also have to say this is one of my favorites episodes of the whole series, which did have some gems. My other favorite is probably the fur protest one where Ellen gets sentenced by 'Judge Ito' to house arrest @ her parents' home. Loved her parents too.
