TOTI & DAVID (The Blogcom 10)


E-POSTSODE 10: ALL THE PRESIDENTIABLES' MEN

INT. EVENING. DINING ROOM

(Toti and David are having dinner, the TV is airing Gibo's ad...)

DAVID
(Chuckling) Hey, that Jee-bow is capitalizing on his cousin's restaurant, Cibo... look he has the resto's colors, green and orange!

TOTI
It's GI-BOH not Jee-Bow... and you must be referring to Mar Roxas... he's the cousin of Cibo's owner... AND, orange is Villar's color... you've got everything mixed up you dodo! BUT, do you know who's related to Gibo?!

DAVID
Who?

TOTI
Noynoy Aquino. They're cousins on the Cojuangco side!

DAVID
Egads! Your country is going to be run by the oligarchs again!

TOTI
What do you mean again?! Did they ever leave?! But you know, this is their one shot at improving the Filipino's lot. They should go for genuine land reform and industrialization. Create jobs for everyone. They shouldn't just convert their feudal landholdings and put up more malls again! Now, THAT would be a legacy their ancestors would be proud of. Otherwise them leftists would recycle their decades-old slogans again. Aaaaargh!!!

DAVID
It's the corruption in your country, Toti... you should've guillotined the Marcoses like they did Marie Antoinette or hanged them like the Ceausescus of Romania... that surely would scare the future Eraps and Glorias of this country...

TOTI
We were THIS close until YOUR government sent in a plane and whisked the Marcoses off to Hawaii... and dare I say it again, that's how you Americans get into trouble in the first place... poking your mighty noses in other people's business...

DAVID
Oh TOTI, lighten up... No, better light up again... ever since you quit smoking you've been horribly testy...

TOTI
(grinning ear to ear) You mean it?!

DAVID
Don't you dare! Why not chew gum...

TOTI
Cavities...

DAVID
Acupuncture...?

TOTI
hate needles

DAVID
Yoga...?

TOTI
Too hot and boring...

DAVID
Oh, I give up... (beat) ... you know what those Presidentiables should give free, quality education at all levels to Filipinos... No, wait... the Catholic Church should give free education... they're the ones with the best private schools in the country after all... and they don't pay taxes... and they...

TOTI
Oh don't get started with that whole Catholic Church blah, blah, blah again... they won't even recognize us as a couple noh?!

DAVID
What do you say we leave the Philippines...?

TOTI
YES! Let's!!!
