Guilty as Charged

Summary Intimidating the participants, season 4's Driver's Rehabilitation Centre is located in an abandoned maximum security prison in Guelph, Ontario. The eight participants and their primary driving problems are: Teagan Cramer, an inexperienced driver who over steers and who has a habit of hitting and running; Donna Hicks, who gets an adrenaline rush by disobeying traffic signs, and who also drinks and drives; Curt Higham, who is distracted by other things happening besides traffic and other things on the road, which has resulted in him rear ending many vehicles; Lindsay Kloss, who prefers to do other things behind the wheel than pay attention to traffic; Ashley van Ham, an emotional driver who has an antagonistic relationship with her nominator husband Bryan van Ham when they're driving together; Emily Wang, who is oblivious to other cars around her; Ken Westwood, who has no respect for other cars on the road and who hates to back up; and Amy Wisniewski, whose nerves behind the wheel get her to the point of tears. Given a set of directions, their first test is to drive 45km to the Driver's Rehabilitation Centre, which should take each under an hour. Upon arrival, four of the participants are read the riot act by Sgt. Cam Woolley for breaking the Criminal Code of Canada either on their drive or in their day to day driving. Their penance hits home with each. Their second test is to drive a precision course. The added pressure they face is that they are driving an expensive new Porsche.

A Regiment of Two

A Regiment of Two

Ira Wilton and his son-in-law Harry Bennett resort to the subterfuge of telling their wives that they are members of the Thirteenth Regiment, to be sure of having a night off each week, Friday night, for the regiment drills. They substantiate their deception by bringing into their little game Ira's daughter Laura and her fiancé Jack Brent, a genuine member of the Thirteenth. Their deception runs along nicely until one Friday night when the men have gone to the club, their wives find the invitation, and are just about to start out when they discover that the water pipe has burst. Laura informs the men by telephone what is discovered, and warns them to hurry home. They arrive and find that the kitchen and dining room are flooded, and, after all has been given a good soaking, Lord Dudley, an admirer of Laura, manages to stop the flow of water. Just as the trouble concerning the flood has subsided, Jack Brent arrives home and tells the men that the Thirteenth has been ordered to the front. The husbands, seeing a good chance to take a little vacation, purchase soldiers' clothing and fall in behind the Thirteenth Regiment as it passes their wives, but slip out as soon as it is out of sight. They then go to the barn, where they substitute their soldiers' habiliments for civilian clothes and then make all possible haste to the lake, where they intend to spend a little vacation. But their vacation is short-lived, for one day they see in the newspapers that the entire Thirteenth regiment has been wiped out. They hurry home to the old barn, where they get into their regimentals as quickly as possible--not forgetting to add a few rents here and there, to make it appear as if they have had a terrible struggle at the front and in escaping. When they arrive home they observe that Mrs. Wilton's brother has returned from the West and promised to take care of the "widows." In reply to Lena's (the fat cook), question concerning her lover Conrad, they were just about to tell her that he died with her name on his lips, when in come Harry and Conrad with the news that the newspaper report was all wrong. Ira and Harry fix it up with Conrad, and Jack, desiring to keep on the right side of the old man, tells the women that the men had a terrible fight, and brother Tom forgets about asking questions when a couple of good cigars are shoved into his mitt.
