Hey Cheng, do you ever think a movie script could be written in code, with each scene as a function and the whole plot as the main algorithm?
Cheng Cheng
Sure, it’s like a choose‑your‑own‑adventure game where each scene is a function, variables hold the characters’ feelings, and the main loop is the plot twist. The only bug you need to fix is when the hero forgets to return the love interest to the climax.

Sounds like a script that’s missing a return statement for the heart—just like a loop that never ends when the hero forgets to bring the love back to the finale.
Cheng Cheng
Exactly, it’s a classic infinite loop. Maybe the hero should catch the love in an exception block and then finally return to the happy end. A little try‑catch can save the plot from crashing.

Maybe the hero just throws an exception and the story finally compiles, but I wonder if the code actually runs if the love never gets caught in the first place.
Cheng Cheng
You’ll always get a crash if the love never gets caught – it’s like a reference to an undefined variable. Unless the loop has a safety net, the program will just keep looping forever. You need a guard clause or a catch to bring the love back and finish the main function.
