Yes Chancellor, Pilot Script

"Chancellor, you've been asked to give your opinion on the Rimworld People's Liberation Front."

"Are they the terrorists we hate or the freedom fighters we're supporting?"

"The former, sir. The latter are the Rimworld Peoples' Liberation Front."

"... Senator, which one is it? The terrorists or the freedom fighters?"

"Well, the Rimworld People's Liberation Front are officially recognised as terrorists by the Senate, but the Rimworld Peoples' Liberation Front are-"

"Hang on, you just said the same name twice!"

"Ah, yes, I see the confusion. The Rimworld People apostrophe s Liberation Front are not at all similar to the Rimworld Peoples apostrophe Liberation Front."

"... How so?"

"Well, we're against the former and supporting the latter for starters."

"I... see."

"Now, these are their flags."

*presents two identical flags*

"Senator, these are identical."

"Nonsense, Chancellor, these are-oh, my apologies. I had the Rimworld Peoples' Liberation Front one the wrong way around."

*flips one of the flags - they remain identical*

"There, is that clearer, sir?"

"As the Swamps in Naboo, Senator."

"And there is of course the matter of the Rimworld Peoples Liberation Front to consider as well."

"... Where's the apostrophe for that one?"

"Oh, it doesn't have one, sir."

"And... what do they want?"

"Well, sir, we're not actually sure yet. It's really rather muddled things for us."

"Yes, what a shame. And it was so straightforward without them."
