ENTER: COURTROOM

JUDGE: It seems you are being charged with one count of disorderly conduct, how do you plead?

DEFENDANT confidently strids up to the stand and the JUDGE motions for him to speak.

DEFENDANT *clearing his throat*: Your honor, what are words, but thousands of letters, motions, and intentions we carry out?

JUDGE *mouth twisting into a grimace*: That’s…

DEFENDANT *passionately holding a fist to his chest*: What are words, but beautiful melodies made with each parting of the lips, remnants passed down through generations?

JURORS in the background are seen nodding to the DEFENDANT’S words.

JUDGE *face progressively getting redder*: You can’t…

DEFENDANT *wiping a single tear from his face*: What are words, but cumulations of our ancestor’s knowledge not yet lost to time?

JUDGE *finally snapping*: You cussed out a minor!

DEFENDANT *shaking his head gently*: That’s where you’d be wrong, your honor. See, I did not cuss out that ankle biter, I enlightened him.
