Crowd: WHY?

Victoria: At ano nanamang drama nanaman to Vera huh? Dahil alam mong matatalo ka ngayong gabi?

Vera: As I’ve said i have been your president for the past 10 years. At maipagmamalaki kong isa ako sa mga nagsilang ng FDGP. I gave my life fully to you guys. The work of my hands, work of my heart… I offered to this organization completely. But I have to say and I’m being honest, ayoko na. Sabi nga nila some things must come to an end. Siguro panahon na para ibigay ko naman ang buhay ko sa aking totoong pamilya. I miss being a wife. I miss being a mother. And having said that, an election is no longer in order. For I am stepping down and turning over my position to the one I see most fit for the position, Victoria Valera.
