*Video Starts

*Scene: teacher scolding students, as narrator speaks, the camera cuts to each cast member

Narrator: Ethical Dilemmas are which a person is confronted with a choice in which no choice is
acceptable in a moral and ethical perspective but must be made regardless. These choices are present in
all aspects of a person’s life; be it personal, social, or professional.

*Camera cuts to guilty student worrying

Narrator: One such example is this: A student broke the projector in the room and made a hole in the
wall.

*Camera cuts to student with dilemma deliberating

Narrator: The only witness to the incident was the best friend of the student, and the student hoped
that his best friend would not say a word

*Camera cuts to the teacher scolding

Narrator: The teacher, after discovering the damage, called all the students to find the culprit

Teacher: Who broke the projector and the wall?! Tell me now!

*Camera cuts to view the whole classroom

Narrator: The teacher threatened to fail all the students if no one confesses to the crime

Teacher: If no one will say anything, then you will all fail!

*Camera cuts to student with dilemma

Narrator: Of course, if the culprit was found, they will be immediately suspended, if not expelled. Now,
the best friend has a choice; will he give up his best friend, and doom him, or side with his best friend,
and doom the entire class?

*Camera cuts to whole classroom freezing

Narrator: According to Utilitarianism, one must make a choice not for the few but for the many. As such,
the correct choice in this scenario is if for the best friend to give up the student
*Classroom unfreezes as camera cuts to the student with dilemma reluctantly raising his hand, sadly
looking at the guilty student

SwD: …Sir, I know who broke both the projector and the wall

*Camera cuts to teacher

Teacher: Really? Then who is it?

*Camera cuts to SwD pointing at guilty student

SwD: …It was him sir.

*Carema cuts to teacher holding back anger

Teacher: …Is this true?

*Camera cuts to guilty student looking alternately at teacher and SwD, before lowering their head

Guilty student: …Yes sir.

*Camera cuts to teacher walking angrily towards the door, motioning to guilty student

Teacher: Then you both come with me. The rest of you, stay here!

*Camera cuts to both following the teacher as narrator speaks

Narrator: Ethical Dilemmas are hard choices a person must make. A lot of people encounter ethical
dilemmas in their every day lives. It is not easy, and it will test the person making the choice. I hope that
people encountering choices, ethical dilemmas or not, can make a choice that satisfies the most people
possible.
