 How does that work, then?  Can you be having dinner at home with your
 wife and, when a knock at the door turns out to be a stranger claiming
 to have a warrant to take her away, you can't say "Show me"?

 
 You can ask it, but they don't have to show you. They will have to show
*her*
 and her attorney (and the court) at some point to validate the arrest, but
you
 don't have any legal standing to demand it.
 
 And this is just a state court judge in the lobby of a courthouse, not some
 family member in their own home, so whatever standing the husband in your
 scenario may have, it certainly wouldn't apply to Judge Busybody.

 
So, "at some point" would seem to mean 'whenever we feel like it'.
Thus, if some random guys show up claiming to have a warrant ("back at
the station") for your arrest, you'd better simply let them spirit you
away while try to assure yourself they're not actually kidnappers...

What else could you do even if they showed it to you?

Anyone who's sophisticated enough to show up to your home with a counterfeit
marked police cruiser and wearing police uniforms and equipment, wouldn't have
any trouble downloading an arrest warrant from the internet and switching out
the names and other pertinent information, forging a judge's signature, and
printing it out to have in hand during the kidnapping.

How exactly does the husband looking at the warrant in your scenario serve as
a prophylaxis against kidnapping?
