Walang Kahulugan Ang Tulang Ito

Parang awit

Na walang tono

​Parang mundo

Na walang tao

Parang umaga

Na walang kasalo

Parang gabi

Na walang kasuyo

​Parang apoy

Na walang alipato

Parang lakbayin

Na walang dulo

​Parang laro

Na walang pagkabigo

Parang digmaan

Na walang dugo

​Parang tisa

Na walang tako

Parang karunungan

Na walang simbolo

​Parang Ikaw Na Walang Ako

‎​GLITCH INC.

‎​Tagline: They fix the past... by breaking it.

‎

‎​The Setup:

‎​In the smog-choked, cobblestone streets of 1950s London, Glitch Inc. is the premier (and weirdest) private investigation agency in Soho. Operating out of a cluttered office, the team consists of three distinct personalities:

‎

‎​Mr. Glitch: A pint-sized, gruff mastermind in a green top hat and trench coat with a sharp mind and a shorter temper.

‎

‎​Gilbertus Lavoe: A lanky, tweed-clad intellect who prefers a pipe, quiet logic, and proper British decorum.

‎

‎​Pokey McHorney: A glamorous, sharp-shooting femme fatale with a sky-high blonde bouffant and heart-shaped glasses who handles the muscle and the firepower.

‎

‎​The Inciting Incident:

‎​The trio is hired by a frantic, weeping woman to find her husband, a brilliant but eccentric clockmaker who vanished from his basement workshop without a trace. All he left behind was a strange, humming grandfather clock made of unearthly metals. While investigating the workshop, Pokey accidentally leans on a lever, Gilbertus drops his pipe into the gears, and Mr. Glitch triggers a catastrophic malfunction.

‎

‎​The "clock" isn't a timepiece—it's a prototype temporal displacement engine.

‎​The Midsection (The Race Through Time)

‎​Instead of finding the missing clockmaker, the trio is violently sucked into a temporal vortex. They find themselves bouncing uncontrollably through a web of adventures and misadventures across different eras:

‎

‎​The Past: They land in Victorian London, accidentally interrupting a key historical event, realizing that the missing clockmaker was kidnapped by a rogue, time-traveling terrorist organization known as The Chrono-Syndicate.

‎

‎​The Present (1950s Alternate): They manage to jump back to their own time, only to find London completely altered into a dystopian, ruined wasteland. The Chrono-Syndicate has successfully altered a pivotal moment in history, setting off a chain reaction meant to wipe out millions.

‎

‎​The Future: To find the tool needed to fix the timeline, they must leap into a neon-drenched, flying-car future, dodging laser fire, cyber-criminals, and their own complete lack of understanding of modern technology.

‎

‎​The Climax:

‎​The trio ends up running for their lives down a moonlit London street under the shadow of Big Ben, chased by temporal anomalies and Syndicate thugs.

‎​To save the future of humanity, Mr. Glitch realizes they don't need to be precise scientists—they just need to do what they do best: create absolute chaos. By intentionally "glitching" the time portal, they stage a daring heist across three eras simultaneously, correcting the historical saboteurs just seconds before the timeline permanently solidifies.

‎

‎​The Resolution:

‎​With millions of lives saved and the timeline restored, the trio crashes back onto the floor of their 1950s Soho office, battered, bruised, and covered in soot. The missing clockmaker is safely back, entirely unaware of the cosmic scale of his rescue. As Mr. Glitch lights a cigarette and Pokey reloads her pistol, the phone rings with a new client.

‎​They might be terrible at keeping a clean timeline, but when history goes wrong, Glitch Inc. is open for business.
