00:00How are you?

00:07I'm okay.

00:08We've already started preparing the moment Franz Castro announced the impeachment plans,

00:16which was November of 2023.

00:18So November of 2023, there were already lawyers doing their work for the impeachment.

00:27We leave it to the lawyers.

00:31We're not there yet, ma'am.

00:33Those things are still too far away.

00:40We're still in the process of reading.

00:48Actually, ma'am, we're not there yet because only the lawyers are working.

00:52I really don't know what they're doing.

00:54But I have a meeting with them.

00:56Have you seen your father after the impeachment?

00:58Not yet.

00:59But I sent a message to his assistant.

01:05And I said, what did I say? I don't remember.

01:10I think I said, everything will be alright.

01:15I think that's what I said.

01:18His reply was a song.

01:21What song, ma'am?

01:23MacArthur Spark.

01:25Okay.

01:28Huh?

01:29Will you appear there?

01:31Ah, okay.

01:32If possible, no.

01:34And I understand, it's possible.

01:36No?

01:37Yes.

01:38Because they might be intimidated by my presence there.
