Following an intense 24-hour voting period, the GHLLFC-backed bill found itself in a deadlock, forcing Senate Speaker Ded to cast the tie-breaking vote. As the Speaker entered, senators on both sides lobbied frantically, hoping to sway the decision. However, Ded was fixated on a single question: "Does this bill help animals?" Seizing the opportunity, GHLLFC representatives assured Ded of the bill's support for animals, which tipped the Speaker's vote in their favor, passing the bill with a “Yay” and pushing it closer to becoming law.

Yet, just as victory seemed certain for GHLLFC, President Code unexpectedly intervened, announcing that a previously uninvolved senator still had to vote. This announcement introduced widespread confusion, as senators questioned the legality and purpose of the sudden extension. Many of them, though initially hesitant, agreed on allowing this last vote if there was documented evidence to ensure transparency. Code accepted the condition, but further discussions saw supporters of the bill accusing him of abusing his authority to delay the proceedings.

The situation has reached a breaking point, with GHLLFC members expressing frustration and demanding the President accept the vote outcome as it stands. However, Code's insistence on awaiting the last senator's vote, despite the usual voting period having ended, has kept the entire Senate in suspense. The President's delay tactics have sparked debates among lawmakers, with some calling it a constitutional overreach while others argue it upholds the democratic process.

As the deadlock drags on, the Senate chamber has turned into an impromptu camp, with weary senators sleeping in their seats and surviving on the limited supply of peanuts left in the building. The prolonged standoff, now one of the longest in Fanloid Fanclub's history, has pushed some senators to desperation, with proposals as bizarre as assigning an AI based on Hatsune Miku to make the decisive congressional decision and "[dressing] up the 'lemmings' like Miku and watch Miku fall off a cliff".

With the unknown senator's vote expected by Sunday, all eyes remain on the Senate. Lawmakers, staffers, and citizens alike await the outcome, fearful of the implications of this unprecedented standoff on the future of Fanloid Fanclub's governance.
