A light moment broke out during the 13th day of Vice President Sara Duterte’s impeachment trial when Senator-Judge Panfilo 'Ping' Lacson was interrupted mid-question by the Senate session bell.

As Lacson wrapped up his remarks, Senate Presiding Officer Francis “Chiz” Escudero joked, “Kindly wind up, Senator Lacson, pati ako nabitin eh,” drawing laughter from the impeachment court.

00:00What is your level or security clearance level?
00:04Top secret being the highest, access to documents at information, restricted being the lowest.
00:12Meron ka ba security clearance na grant o na issue para sa iyo?
00:20Wala naman.
00:22Well, you know, I assume na mataas yung security clearance mo kasi ang hinawakan mo, inaudit mo,
00:28confidential information, confidential funds, di ba?
00:31Yes po, Your Honor.
00:32So I wonder why wala ka security clearance kasi paano ka mag-audit?
00:38Kasi pag may intelligence project, nakabolt yan eh.
00:43Lahat ng aliases, yun ang nakalabas.
00:45Pero yung tunay na identities corresponding to the aliases, nakabolt.
00:50Pag declassified na, terminated na yung program, yung activity or yung project, intelligence project,
00:56pwede nang ilabas yun kasi declassified na yun.
01:00So kung wala kang security clearance, paano ma-access?
01:04Yung tulad na sinabi ng ni Senator Subiri, quarterly, nagpapadala sa Senate President,
01:10President, Speaker of the House, ng intelligence and confidence.
01:16Paano ginastos? Kasi may oversight powers kami, di ba?
01:18So paano ka makakapag-audit properly kung hindi mo alam yung nature nung intelligence project or operation?
01:28Kaya kanina tinatanong ko, yung bang evidence of success per activity?
01:35Alam ba, after surveillance report.
01:37And mind you, you cannot call it successful kung negative yung surveillance.
01:44Wala nakita eh. Pero gumasas ng pera yun.
01:47So would you consider that another topic, as a success or evidence of success,
01:53maski negative yung resulta ng intelligence information gathering,
02:00operation or activity, or yung after surveillance report?
02:05So kung walang result negative, ano yung, hindi successful?
02:09Hindi pwedeng i-clear?
02:11Sir, nakalagay po kasi yung nature ng item is payment of reward.
02:16So dapat...
02:16No, no, no, no.
02:17Pagka kasi nag-acknowledgement receipt, no?
02:20Alimbawa, bumiyahe, meron ding informant yung informant,
02:24ginasusan, o bumila na sigarilyo sa sari-sari store,
02:28nagkape, kasi kausap yung informant.
02:31Wala ka makikitang...
02:33Oh, thank you, Mr. President.
02:36Kindly wind up, Senator Lacson.
02:39Pati ako nabitin, eh.
02:43May just respond na lang.
02:45We'll wait for your answer.
