This is when Ron Bailey, a spoiled teenager played by Bill Bixby, was held in the Mayberry jail once for hit and run.
Otis: "Hey, what're you doin' in my cell?"

Ron: "Your cell?"

Otis: "That's right. That's been my cell every Saturday night for the last ump-teen years. Now will you kindly get out?"

Ron: "Are you kidding me?"

Otis: "I am not kidding you. And if you don't remove yourself I am going to call the policeman."

Ron: "This is ridiculous."

Otis: "All right, wise guy.  ...Police!  Police!  Police!...

Barney: "What's goin' on out he... Oh Otis, it's you. Ya have to make so much racket when ya come in?"

Otis: "Officer, arrest this man."

Barney: "What?"

Otis: "He's trespassing on my property."

Barney: "Oh for heaven's sake."

Otis: "A citizen's property's got to be protected against prowlers and trespassers. That's the law."

Barney: "Otis, will ya just pipe down and go to sleep in that other cell?"

Otis: "I just can't sleep in a strange room!"

Barney: "Come on, boy.  Let's put your things in that other cell."

Ron: "Oh now just a minute! You mean to tell me that you intend to accommodate this guy and give him any cell he wants?!"

Barney: "Well, he's an old customer.  I s'pose it's no more than right."
