Yes,
This actually happened on christmas night after evryone had gone home and someone forgot to turn off the lights and camera. He had drank a fith earlier in the day and passed out in his office and woke up latter that night. Still smashed and forgetting that Pribe Care passed he got mad and wanted to speak his mind so he took the floor. As you can see the room is empty but he is still talking as if the room was full and he even point over to where he thinks the rep. are still sitting. This went on for several hours until a janitor turned off the lights and drove him home.
