Answer: Yes, Minimalist Script.
Me as an applicant to be part of the team of SenateFlix scriptwriters for Season 1 Episode 21 Season Finale:
Season Finale: Flashes of scenarios — then, Ex-SP Alan convenes “plenary” b4 midnight today, 11 senators show up but… Near midnight (camera zooms in to a shining object slowly bobbing up in the moonlit night) A smooth sparkling bald head slowly ascends the staircase…
Flashback, (caption reads: 7 hours earlier):
Ex-SP Alan (huddled with senators in a meeting) : We have to convene before the constitutional deadline of 12.midnight today. Because the plenary will automatically lapse into sine die adjournment by operation of law that’s why…
Sen. Loren interrupts: Wait … are you still the Senate President…?
Ex-SP Alan stands up, holds up camera phone to light his face, bangs table loud: I AM… THE SENATE PRESIDENT — FOREVER!!! ⚡🎇🪅Pia! What are you doing, browsing your phone there?
Sen. Pia: I’m reading Avelino vs. Cuenco, Consti Law 1. Quick read it now, this is what the onse senators followed…
Sen. Loren: Hindi na sila onse. Tayo, tayo na yung onse. Na-onse tayo!
Ex-SP Alan: Don’t say that! (Near tears) I am the Senate President forever! (Bangs table)
Sen. Robin: Sandali lang kapatid, hindi naman forever — bawal sa Qur’an yan (Wait brother, not forever, that’s against the Qur’an)
Ex-SP Alan: Read Psalm 23! Imee, call up the others, we will convene before midnight!
Sen. Imee walks to her staff, smiles and points at staff member: You…it’s your fault. (Looks at another staff member) It’s her fault, di ba, she approved it. Let’s call up the other senators.
Sen. Bong Go: Were still lacking two more, Sen. Jinggoy is in jail and…
Ex-SP Alan: Give him a mobile phone he will join and vote by teleconference.
Sen. Marcoleta: We have not yet approved the rule on teleconference voting, we didn’t have a quorum, the ten walked out on us, remember?
Ex-SP Alan: Call up Bato now (fugitive Senator Bato)
Sen. Imee walks to staff: It’s your fault. Call up Bato, put him on speaker phone.
(Staff member calls up Bato and presses the “speaker” tab)
Speaker phone AI voice in British accent sounds out: “The number you dialled — is out of network coverage area… The number you dialled — is out of network coverage area.”
Staff member: Ma’am, he’s out of the planet.
