"Who is this butt? Just answer, your father can be the real father or the father-in-law candidate," asked the head of the panel of judges, Albertus Usada.

"Father who?" asked the judge.
"Minister," replied Amiril.
"For who is AN? Don't forget your memory, remember you are also a suspect. Don't cover it up so that you sleep soundly," asked the judge.
"I think Stork Andreau," replied Amiril.
"What SP3K?" asked the judge.
"An order to stop taking action," said Amiril.
"What is BC?" asked the judge.
"Customs," Amiril replied.
"So, what does that mean?" asked the judge.
"As far as I remember, there was a problem at Customs," said Amiril.
