Then, Sweet cited the usual story that happens to Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) who died abroad.
“Ay! Ano ba ‘to?! Ang nasabi ko lang, ‘Ano ba ‘to? May pasalubong sa ilalim?’ Di ba, joke yun? May namatay na OFW. Yung anak niya, di makakauwi. So, yung bangkay na lang ang dinala sa Philippines, ‘tapos isinabay na yung mga pasalubong. Nasa ilalim ng bangkay,” John Lapus said.
The comedian also said, “Kaya noong binuksan yung ataul, nakadikit yung mukha ng bangkay sa salamin…Ganun siya kanina! So, talagang… hay! Apparently, mga foam-foam lang pala yun, pipitpitin lang nang konti para bumaba.”
