"You reckon these are the last hurrahs or a focus on the re-establishment of control over the party."
"I reckon you are referring to Nawaz Sharif's narrative which is that he was unfairly disqualified and that taking away the prime minister's position as well as the party's presidency from him ain't gonna make no difference to his overwhelming hold over the party."
"Well, his speeches and that of his daughter are fiery indeed..."
"Yes, but remember both are facing jail time and their lawyer has been unable to present a money trail."
"This is called eating your cake and having it too - keep the money and keep party control."
"Right, but the fiery well attended speeches..."
"Extremely well-attended speeches!"
"Granted, but the party is in power and you and I both know that it is easy to get crowds when in power. Even our lisping, extremely disheveled looking prime minister has been able to get huge crowds to listen to him..."
"Only if the Punjab chief minister so desires and I have heard he doesn't so desire no more."
"Don't be facetious."
"You know there is talk of a move led by The Goat, (main, main, main the goat's call in Urdu which in English means me, me, me) Khwaja Asif, has launched a Vision 2018 which is likely to succeed as it is close to Nawaz Sharif's heart namely Kulsoom and Maryam are acceptable as party leaders and during the interim period before they can take their rightful place in the party then our lisping perennially disheveled prime minister should remain..."
"I have heard that too and I cannot understand Shahbaz Sharif's continued loyalty to a man and his daughter who are not gonna give him more than what he has."
"Maryam says First Uncle is most qualified to take over from daddy and daddy is also praising him."
"Right, but daddy said the First Uncle would be made the interim prime minister and then he backed out so one cannot rely on him to keep his word."
"But what I meant when I asked if these were the last hurrahs is if the father and daughter are convicted and the likelihood is high as their lawyer has not submitted a money trail to the court then would not the crown fall into the lap of the First Uncle?"
"Power does not fall in anyone's lap, you've gotta be selected by the leader in this country."
"But aren't you forgetting the Holy Ghost is also an important element in the equation and by Holy Ghost I am referring to the 100 odd perennial turncoats within the PML-N ranks, then there are those angry at the Senate tickets - these factors are skimming their majority."
"Indeed and that's a lesson that Nawaz Sharif must make his daughter understand: rewarding select people by heaping benefits on them is going to antagonize others."
"Ah so the last hurrahs you reckon."
"Yes but time will tell."
