----------------------------------------------------------

Trillanes: Mr. President (Erap), can you please advise your location please, we had been waiting for you for quite a moment already. Government troops had arrive. We had been given a deadline.

Erap: Nonsense, do not mind that deadline. Approach the media, make a statement that nothing will happen after the deadline expires.

(After few more hours)

Trillanes: Sir, your location please, the deadline had expired, no supporters are heeding our call. We need you badly here at Manila Pen.

Erap: Damn I am very frustrated and annoyed, Ived been circling the entire City of Manila, and still can not find that fuckin' Manila Pen.

Trillanes: Sir it is located here at Ayala Ave. corner Makati Ave., near Glorieta.

Erap: (Scratching his head) Whaaaat?! You imbecile, should you had told me rightaway it is "Makati Pen", I should looked for it at the City of Makati, you idiot. OK, I will be right there.

(Gunshots fired, APC entered hotel lobby)

Trillanes: (Perspiring heavily) Sir, sir, government forces are already inside the hotel... Do not proceed here in Makati anymore. We will surrender, we will surrender. hu hu hu (sobs).
