ENGLISH Q3 – INFOMERCIAL, Chapter 1: “BULLDOZE” (BULLYING)

(SCHOOL BELL RANG)

(BALDEMOR AND THE 2 BULLIES CRASHED INTO BALDEMOR… INTENTIONALLY)
BALDEMOR: OUCH! Why’d you do that for?
VYNSEL: Watch where you are going, bruh, running towards the leader of Geng-
Geng, little one.
TABLE: (LAUGH) SHORTIE!
(PUSHES, TABLE AGREED AND FOLLOWED)
(sfx: “Wanna break from the ads?” from Spotify)
(prop: “Skip ads” from yt)
(Marc crumbled the prop, Lennica appeared)

MARC: Stop right there; do you think what just happened is fair or right?

LENNICA: Of course not. Bullying can affect physical and emotional health, both in
the short term and later in life. It can lead to physical injury, social problems,
emotional problems, and even death. How can we even avoid getting bullied?

MARC: Help kids and even everyone understands bullying, discuss its nature and
its unacceptable behavior. Encourage open communication, listen to their
concerns, and cheer them to pursue their interests. Model kindness and respect
towards others. Stay safe by talking to trusted adults and staying away from
bullying-prone areas. Staying close to adults and other kids can also help prevent
future bullying… But now, I can’t figure out why they would bully people while
acknowledging this.
LENNICA: Found on by some of my observation, they do it as because some of
them; they lack empathy, self-esteem, struggling socially, difficult home life, they
might be even bullied themselves, emotion dysregulation, feeling insecure,
behavior, social cognition, stress and trauma, they bully to impress; to be popular
and lastly psychological trauma.
MARC: That’s why!

BALDEMOR: What do you mean by “that’s why? ”So you think it’s easy to be
bullied?! No! I can’t just let myself be harassed because of some trauma; I want
revenge. It’s not fair!!!
(Baldemor throwing punches, 2 bullies dodges, Len & Marc umaawat)

MIONG: Sorry for breaking in, but the world isn't truly fair. Therefore, we must
adapt; that being said, we won't stand by while they trample us. There are several
approaches we can take to deal with this, like reporting it, facing it, telling
authorities or reliable adults, and so on.
(BALDEMOR CALMED)

BALDEMOR: Sorry to attempt to punch you guys…

VYNSEL: We apologiz-
TABLE: What “we”? Neve-
VYNSEL: Shut it; we may be Geng-geng, but let’s not let our pride take over us.
Again, we are very sorry, little one.
(VYNSEL KOTONGS TABLE, TABLE VOWS TO APOLOGIZE)
ALL: Here in “BULLDOZE” we stop, we drop,
