- 00:23:15.753 --> 00:23:18.222
- Mandarin version was accepted there but the local television
- 00:23:18.355 --> 00:23:21.926
- There but the local television stations said well it's too
- 00:23:22.059 --> 00:23:22.660
- Stations said well it's too japanese for why can you make a
- 00:23:22.793 --> 00:23:26.330
- Japanese for why can you make a different version?
- 00:23:26.463 --> 00:23:26.864

- 00:28:34.896 --> 00:28:36.564
- Jesus. and one of the lines that i
- 00:28:36.698 --> 00:28:37.432
- And one of the lines that i love the most is when kelsie
- 00:28:37.565 --> 00:28:40.201

- 00:28:40.335 --> 00:28:40.869
