Stop 1 Stop 2 Stop 3 THIS SCRIPT HERE-approximately 3000 words (to be continued)
Just like last time, I want to make it very clear that I do NOT support violence. The speaker character is not someone whose behavior you should emulate. Please protest peacefully.
For lack of a better term, this part was meant to be the "shit just got real" moment. I actually had a really tough time finding the balance between our speaker's normally cartoonish level of violence with the actual gravity of the actions they're committing. But in the end, I think I found a great mix and a natural transition. For one, putting the flashback at the beginning of this part helps frame the scene better. Not only is the tension of it not interrupted, but you know going in exactly what the speaker is preparing to do and to what lengths they're willing to go to do it.
I also had to go all-in on the sleezeball politician characteristics here. As much as I wish I could say this is just as exaggerated as everything else....reality is stranger than fiction. I'll leave it at that. But this is a character you're supposed to hate. This again helps frame the speaker's actions as understandable, even though it's not right. Violence is bad. This has been your PSA. But on the topic of the politician, I specifically gendered him as male. Normally I leave character genders ambiguous unless it 100% effects the plot of the story, but here I felt the male gendering was necessary. After all, I have a hunch that "the president" wouldn't take kindly to a woman in power or respect a non-binary person's pronouns. But of course, my scripts are always open to gender swapping.
We're getting closer to the finish line, and the next part's gonna be a doozy. I hope you're as excited as I am! Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy!
PS: While working on the next part in the background, I realized I had used the wrong term in the initial draft for this script. While I normally don't like to go back and edit existing stories after I upload them online (it feels too much like "rewriting history" for my tastes), I decided to update the term anyway. Since this post deals with contemporary political allegory, I wanted to make my words very clear so people don't get the wrong message. But for clarity's sake, I'll inform you that I replaced the word "shareholders" with "lobbyists." That's the only edit I made to the script post early-access.
