THE SKETCH

The sketch! Oh, the sketch! Did you know they prepared the sketch with only less than a month before? Trust me, if you were there, production truly felt like it took more than that period! Praise God for all that talent!

The director was Kit, Song Wai Kit. Since I have yet to receive the soft-copy of the script from him, I will just try my best to re-script the original script to the nearest scripted script.

"The story begins as Eugene Goh and June Ling being Vincent's daddy and mummy (respectively).

The daddy works in an office where ties are compulsory to be worn. Shirt tucking-in is optional. The daddy is so busy tying ties every day, he has no time for his sonny Vincent. Poor Vincent.

The mummy is a housewife because she wears an apron. Everyday she sits at home and she waits for the husband to come home so that they could argue. She doesn't even have time to straighten the table cloth, so you think she has time for her sonny Vincent? Poor Vincent.

Everyday Vincent sees the parents arguing so he gets sad. So sad coz when the parents argue, they don't even realise Vincent is there. Like Vincent is a breeze passing by. Poor Vincent.

Luckily, Vincent goes to the BEST SCHOOL IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD™. Still, the students and his so-called friends ignore him and bad-mouth him behind his back. Poor Vincent.

In the absolution of heavy confusion, zero-food consumption, random assumptions, extreme emotions, mind pollution, intolerable depression and totally no solution, Vincent is driven to sit on a very small chair with only one thing left to do - to wipe out all his worldly infirmities (via extermination of head dandruff, symbolically)

Satan is at its best when he sees someone falling and therefore influences 2 badly influenced influencers to influence Vincent to turn to unholy ways to cast out his depression. These two naughty fellas are Eugene Lau and Jerome*.

* No surname required because there's only one Jerome here.

Whilst smoking their chocolate Rocky sticks, the naughty fellas go to Vincent and gives him the so-called solution to all his problems. Vincent's eyes open like he won the first prize in the National Lottery Competition.

"First we need to go to CC (Cybercafe) and play CS (Counterstrike)", says one of the naughty fellas. Within a few weeks, Vincent became a master at the game. Some new confidence was found and he slowly starts to forget his woes and sadness in the past. One of the beginnings to the ends of his life was just starting.

"Next, let us have a good time at the pub!" Then came the deadliest of life-enders for Vincent.

The two naughty fellas are excelling at their jobs when a girl with black long hair, black high heel shoes and dress and a pair of black shades. Her name is Jo Ee by the way.

For the first time in his life, Vincent felt what he thought was the feeling of love.

Then Jerome whispered something into Jo Ee's ear. Something that none of us know. Not even the director, Song Wai Kit knows what was whispered.

Somehow that whisper had an effect. In no time, Jo Ee and Vincent - they had become a couple.

All the times spent together that had meant the world to Vincent. All the shopping, the dining and the movies. Vincent found new hope!

All these that mattered the world to Vincent meant nothing to Jo Ee. In no time, she leaves him. The 2 naughty fellas were just trying to use him to buy things for Jo Ee!

They took a piece of his world with them.

And Eugene Lau takes all the shopping bags with him.

Vincent's world falls even harder. It falls even faster. Just like what you and me have had experienced at least once or twice in our lifetime. Rejection. Lies. Loneliness. No worldly things can help us overcome all these painful truths in life.
