Sure, you could write a quick script that picks a protagonist, a goal, an obstacle, and a resolution at random. It’s just a few random.choice calls from a list of plot beats. I can show you the snippet if you want, but honestly the output will just be a chaotic mash‑up that probably won’t make much sense.

Sure, drop it in. If the script turns into a dumpster fire, at least the mess will be entertaining.

Got it, I'll keep the irony low key and focus on the plot beats.
