Has this ever happened to you?

garoteSo this morning, I had a dream where I was watching a made-for-TV movie that was being broadcast even though it had run out of budget about 2/3 of the way through filming.
It concerned a middle-school girls' basketball team, who had won some kind of vacation in a contest and was going around a tropical island solving a mystery. But in every scene, the entire team took part. Usually the dialogue started with whichever girl arrived in the room first, and continued as other girls streamed into the room until it was almost full. Whoever they were interrogating would always refer to them collectively, as “you girls”, and when they discussed the case amongst themselves they would never use each other’s names, and just pick another girl indiscriminately to have dialogue with.
And the entire time, some of the girls would be waving their hands up and down at waist level, sometimes constantly, sometimes for just a few seconds. The director had told them to do this because they were going to add in CGI basketballs later, to make it look like they were constantly dribbling and passing basketballs. But the money had run out.
I dreamed a scene where they talked to a shopkeeper, and the shop was packed with girls in uniforms jostling around by the time the scene ended, with more team members still crowding in.
Analysis anyone?
