The Madness of King George

Title: “The Madness of King George”
A dialogue between Solid Snake (Joe C. Jukic, aka JCJ) and George Stroumboulopoulos.


INT. CBC STUDIO – NIGHT
A dim red light glows behind the black curtain backdrop. Smoke curls through the air. Solid Snake, known here as JCJ, sits across from George Stroumboulopoulos, who leans forward with his trademark intensity.


GEORGE:
Snake—Joe C. Jukic. You’ve been called many things: soldier, director, ghost, even prophet. But tonight, I want to talk about your past… about the madness of King George.

SNAKE (JCJ):
(smirking)
You mean George H.W. Bush—the man who said a New World Order was coming? Yeah… I remember the day that transmission hit the airwaves. The spooks called it the Revelation speech. The rest of us called it the beginning of global hypnosis.

GEORGE:
And you were part of that world?

SNAKE (JCJ):
I was drafted into it. My country—a small nation between giants. Russia on one side, China on the other. We were the buffer zone, the chessboard. I thought working for the CIA would shield us… keep us safe from their claws.
(pauses)
I was wrong.

GEORGE:
So what was your first mission?

SNAKE (JCJ):
My first psyop wasn’t a bomb. It was a beat.
(smiles)
AC/DC. “Rock and Roll Train.” They wanted something big—something that screamed rebellion but hid compliance in plain sight. The CIA loved it. Said it would ignite the youth and distract the old.
So they gave me the job.

GEORGE:
You directed Rock and Roll Train?

SNAKE (JCJ):
Not the version you saw on MTV. The real one was too dangerous.
(leans in)
I made it for joejukic.website—a secret art front for psyops testing. The riffs were coded frequencies. The flashes hid subliminal maps of military networks.
To the fans, it was rock and roll.
To the agency, it was war propaganda.

GEORGE:
That’s heavy. So… were you a patriot, or a pawn?

SNAKE (JCJ):
Both.
I thought I was saving my people. But every file I decrypted, every lyric I buried with hidden meaning—it was all feeding the same empire that wanted control.
(pauses)
The madness of King George wasn’t about one man. It was about a system that believed it could play God with art, money, and minds.

GEORGE:
And now?

SNAKE (JCJ):
Now I fight for truth in the code.
Rock and roll was supposed to set people free. Not turn them into sleeper agents of consumerism and control.
So I’m making a new cut. The real “Rock and Roll Train.”
Uncensored. Unowned.
And this time… the signal will wake people up.


The red light flickers. The interview feed glitches for a second. Somewhere, an old transmission of “Rock and Roll Train” starts playing backward—revealing a message no one was supposed to hear.


Would you like me to write the next scene — where the real “Rock and Roll Train” video gets leaked online and begins awakening people around the world?
