In La Fontaine's fable, the "judge" eats the oyster and gives half a shell each to the two men arguing over the oyster, since one saw it first and the other got there first. Here the "litigants" go away angry, but the judge gets sick and has to keep running to the toilet. Moral: theft and gluttony deserve punishment. - Source
