03:24At last, finally,
03:26I am seen.
03:28It's not a joke.
03:32Thank you so much
03:34for that introduction.
03:36Thank you so much.
03:38Tonight, I am seen.
03:40With this movie, with this project,
03:42I am finally seen.
03:44I have been participating
03:46in the Metropolitan Festival for years.
03:50This is the first time
03:52that I have been awarded.
03:56Thank you so much
03:58for the opportunity
04:00that ABS-CBN gave me
04:04during those times
04:06when the company
04:08was in dire straits.
04:10They were still trying
04:12to make good projects,
04:14good contents.
04:16And I am thankful
04:18for the opportunity
04:20that they were not able
04:22to make a lot of projects,
04:24a lot of movies,
04:26a lot of contents.
04:28I am one of the people
04:30they chose to make
04:32movies that they will release
04:34every year.
04:36Thank you so much
04:38to Director Jhulan
04:40for giving me this story.
04:42You gave me this story
04:44that many are waiting for.
04:46A character that
04:48will not only
04:50make you laugh,
04:52a character that will not
04:54only amaze the audience,
04:56but will pierce the hearts
04:58and souls of the audience.
05:00And will give a lot of
05:02realizations
05:04and a lot of knowledge
05:06to the audience of this movie.
05:08Thank you so much
05:10for your guidance.
05:16I will just continue
05:18because I might not be the best actor.
05:28Maybe this is the award
05:30for the first runner-up.
05:34Maybe the outfit is a waste.
05:36He is famous, so let's give him
05:38a four-star value.
