An attractive female reporter stand outside a large Victorian-era building, from which a series of variations of the Rotovian flag fly.
"Good evening, I'm Natasha Sunders reportering Rotovian National News, from the Athenian Courthouse. Where the Supreme Court of Rotovia is expected to squash the Rotovian Opposition Party's motion to overturn the re-election of President Bacchuss of the Liberal Party.... sorry... we're crossing over live for the verdict...."
The shot fades into a large marble courtroom of impressive visage.Resembling more a romansque cathederal than a modern courtroom the voice of the Balliff echoes off the the high roof.
Balliff: "All rise for the Honourable Justice Thomas Greenville, the Honourable Justice Melissa Pattissa and the Wright Honourable Justice Fredrick Knowles"
The room fell to silence as the aging Justice Knowles approach the imposing judicial bench, which stould him easily four meters above the gallery.
Knowles: "Save the parties, you may be seated..."
Muffled sounds of chairs scraping could be heard of the dull crackle of the microphone as Justice Knowles adjusted the already positioned microphone on his desk.
Knowles: "This lawsuit is of the most extreme nature and one for which has never, to my knowledge appeared before a Rotovian Court.... and one for which I am thankfull to have heard...
Dispite the majority holding of the Liberal Party of Rotovia and the Rotovian Republican Party, in coalition, it is apparently and adundently clear that the Allied Conservative Party holds sufficat votes for a minority government.
It is therefore my ruling, with great plasure, to order His Eminency President Dionysus Bacchuss to step down from the role of President and that Senator Maxwell Powers assume the Office of the President of the Constitutional Republic of Rotovia...
So ordered!"
The gallery erupted into anarchy with screams of terror filling the massive room, outside the courthouse the wall of reporters are knocked asside as outraged government supportes flood the courthouse steps.
