One-liner

I've been running through several ideas and also been lurking for some great inspiration, but as people said, simple is the best. So I decided not to go for a complicated story line.

Anyway, the story that I'm using is one of my own-made story that I wrote on summer course 2 years ago. With several changes here and there, I decided to go dark but I am trying to keep it simple, still. I was contemplating about the sins that I'm going to focus on. Well, I guess the more often I think about the characters, I seems to have some enlightenments, thank God. I will probably start drafting before it slips out of my mind.

I reckon this one-liner would and should be the punch line for my screenwriting. I've read some of last year's one-liners. Some of them are really good! I really like some that made me curious about the complete story, not forgetting about the twist, which is very important in my opinion.

I think a good one-liner should give small hints about where the story is going but NOT a spoiler. That way, it makes the reader, in this case maybe me, intrigued and willing to read the rest of the story.
