do you feel safe here, noya? >> i don't really feel safe because it was not the first and definitely won't be the last time it's going to happen. so no, i guess i have to watch and see if things happen. >> reporter: hard to imagine what that little girl has seen. law enforcement sources tell me that the gunman purchased his weapon on friday, the day before going into that synagogue, and that short runway is one of the things that makes those lone wolf attackers so frightening and so hard to stop. george. >> that certainly does. matt, thanks very much. hate crimes and white nationalist violence a focus for the race for the white house. former vice president joe biden announcing his run by condemning president trump's reaction to the riots in charlottesville. our new poll with "the washington post" shows biden starts as a modest front-runner and has a rally in pennsylvania today. mary bruce is in pittsburgh with the latest. good morning, mary. >> reporter: good morning, george. well, it is launch day for joe biden back home here in his native pennsylvania. he'll be speaking to union workers here in pittsburgh

outlining his pitch to those working class voters who abandoned the party in 2016, but whose support will be so critical if biden hopes to win back the white house next year. it comes, of course, as he is leading in our latest abc news/"washington post" poll, biden getting a boost from his long political history and his name recognition. he now leads bernie sanders by six points, but now there are signs of a potential generational showdown here in the making. a striking gap we are seeing between the front-runners, biden leads sanders, 27% to 6% among voters 50 and older. but when it comes to the under 30 crowd, biden has just 3% support versus sanders '13%. of course, it is early, and there is plenty of room for this all to change. in fact, 35% say they simply aren't ready yet to name a favorite. >> they could move all over the place in the coming months vying to take on president trump. our poll shows he's still stuck bew 40%. our lowest historically for any president, and 55% of voters say they don't even consider voting for him in 2020.

>> reporter: yeah, george, despite the strong economy we are still seeing the president with that historically weak approval rating before, 40%, and this morning we're also getting a sense of some of the biggest vulnerabilities that the president will face as he heads into 2020. health care likely to be one of the top issues for voters in this campaign but it could be a real challenge for the president. our poll shows 40% of americans say the way the president has handled health care makes them more likely to oppose him while 23% say it would make them more likely to support him. and on his handling of his single issue of immigration, george, 44% more likely to oppose trump for a second term, versus 31% more likely to support him. lots of challenges ahead. >> mary bruce, thanks very much. robin, you're about to head to pittsburgh. >> yeah. i'll leave "gma" a bit early to head to pittsburgh to do tha interview with he and his wife, dr. jill biden. a lot to talk to him about. >> that will be here tomorrow. >> looking forward to that. thanks, robin. now the investigation into that terrifying crane collapse that left four dead in seattle, including a college freshman. this morning we're learning more

sara wong, a freshman at seattle pacific university studying nursing. another travis corbett, an experienced ironworker operating the crane's cab. his wife heartbroken. >> words can't even describe what a good partner he was because he was just so nice and so giving and so caring. >> reporter: and andrew yoder, also an ironworker and young father. the construction company that owns the crane says workers were dismantling the structure right before it came down. at that same time the national weather service says winds were gusting up to 23 miles per hour. as the investigation continues a crowd of mourners gathers where the crane fell hanging a flag for one ofhe victims, a former marine. a crane like this one is a common sight here in downtown seattle. there are actually more cranes here than in any other city in the country, but officials say a tragedy like this one has never occurred before. robin? >> so tragic. thank you.

now to that new storm on the move after a record-breaking spring snowstorm hits chicago. ginger tracking it all. good morning, ginger. >> good morning, robin. 2 1/2 inches of snow in chicago over the weekend. that is the latest biggest snow total on record and it wasn't just the snow there, the severe storms on the southern side of this had a funnel cloud in texas and we're going to see more of that this week. it's actually a pretty complex system that's setting up to bring damaging winds to the oklahoma and texas panhandles and norman, oklahoma, oklahoma city down to mid land today, and by tomorrow, it is an enhanced risk of large hail, especially in the area you see highlighted there, george. >> okay, ginger, thanks very much. we move on to that nfl draft tragedy. the search is on for the gunman who shot new york giants pick corey ballentine. it happened hours after ballentine was selected. the gunman killed his college roommate as well. abc's linsey davis here with the latest. good morning, linsey. >> reporter: good morning to you, george. right after corey ballentine was drafted by the new york giants he described the achievement as a crazy dream.

hours later, it turned into a nightmare that left his teammate dead. what should have been a night of celebration after being drafted by the nfl abruptly turned into a night of horror. >> just got a report of multiple gunshots. >> reporter: early sunday morning new york giants draft pick corey ballentine was shot and wounded in this residential neighborhood just blocks away from washburn university. >> there are people running everywhere, and somebody's down in the middle of the road. looks like they're bleeding pretty good. >> reporter: his washburn teammate dwane simmons also shot died at the scene. ballentine was rushed to the hospital with nonlife-threatening injuries. >> they always bring a smile to your face when you think of those two together and they helped each other out. >> reporter: it was supposed to be the greatest day of the young athlete's life. just hours earlier, this was the scene. >> the new york football giants select -- >> corey ballentine, defensive back, washburn. >> reporter: ballentine, a senior at the small kansas university, is known for his

speed and blocking kicks. soon after he was picked the 23-year-old tweeting, it's all a crazy dream until you do it. i can't even explain the emotions i have right now. new york's head coach calling to congratulate the newest giant. >> been waiting on this opportunity for a lifetime really. so i'm glad to be even a part of the conversation and definitely ready to start learning and being around the guys and being around you guys. >> reporter: just hours later topeka police say dozens were at a house in this neighborhood when the shooting occurred. so far, no arrests have been made, and authorities are asking any witnesses to come forward. washburn university released a statement saying both dwane and corey have been great representatives of washington university in general. corey is expected to make a full recovery. the investigation into just what happened here is still ongoing. >> linsey, thanks very much. thank you, linsey, and now to those daring rescues in virginia. five men trapped in what's known as the cyclops cave since friday are now finally safe this

morning after an hours' long operation. stephanie ramos has the latest. >> request members to respond to assist public assistance. five subjects stuck in a cave. >> reporter: this morning, five men are recovering after being rescued one by one by emergency crews. all of them stuck inside this partially flooded cave for almost 48 hours. >> they went in with harnesses and things of that nature but i don't know if they expected the scale of coming back out would be much more difficult. >> reporter: six men entered what is a known as the cyclops cave, a seven-mile-long cavern that's hundreds of feet deep. >> some of the passageways are not much wider than i am chest to back deep so very tight, very hard to move. >> reporter: what began as a fun day of camping quickly turned dangerous. heavy rain caused flooding making it difficult for them to climb out. one of them did escape sunday morning and called 911. they say they rigged multiple

ropes around these trees to hoist the men up out of the cave safely. >> rappelling rope one. >> reporter: rescuers raced against time as the men battled threatening condition, facing hypothermia and exhaustion. >> it's a technical cave, so it's hard to get in. it's pretty amazing they got in as far as they did. >> reporter: it took search and rescue teams about 12 hours to get all five men out of that cave. four of them were rushed to this hospital. another man was airlifted from the scene and taken to a different medical center, but all of them, so thankful to have made it out of that cave in time. robin? >> that is great news. stephanie, thank you. now to the latest in the college admissions scandal. lawyers for actress lori loughlin, her husband and several other defendants are expected in court today to enter a not guilty plea to another round of charges. gio benitez is here with that. good morning, gio. >> reporter: hey, robin. good morning. good morning, everyone. lori loughlin and her husband have already pleaded not guilty

to mail fraud and conspiracy, but she's now pleading not guilty to a second conspiracy charge. the couple unlikely to appear in court today. the lawyer will enter a plea for them. lawyers for more than a dozen other parents will also enter pleas on behalf of their clients. now loughlin and her husband are accused of paying half a million dollars to get their daughters into usc and reportedly claim they did not know admitted mastermind rick singer would use the money to bribe coaches and therefore they consider themselves innocent of any charges. prosecutors, though, they disagree charging them with crimes that carry up to 40 years behind bars. >> we're learning of another family who allegedly paid singer more than a million dollars to get their daughter into yale. >> more than a million dollars. that's right, robin. the family's attorney says their 21-year-old daughter moved from china to california to attend high school and college. now, the attorney says, though, although she didn't want to, singer pushed her to apply to yale. in china the attorney went on saying that students are told there where to go to school. so culturally she thought she

had no choice, but to follow his advice. she has yet to be charged. >> this is far from over. >> some of those students are innocent in this. thank you, gio. we're going to switch gears just a little bit this morning. now to the latest on the royal baby watch. duchess meghan and prince harry's first child is due any moment now. we're all waiting trying to read the english breakfast tea leaves for some clues. amy is in windsor with all the details. any clues this morning, amy? good morning to you. >> reporter: well, you know what? everybody wants to know when, how, where and we just don't know the answer to that right now because yes. we do believe that meghan is due at any moment now, but this couple has kept the details of the birth of their baby extremely private. there's speculation some people think that meghan and harry will have their baby here in windsor at their new home, frogmore cottage, but she could also give birth in a hospital. we just don't know. we do know this, buckingham palace will release a statement when meghan goes into labor and

then we'll expect another statement from buckingham palace once she has the little prince or princess and we'll get the time, the date, the name, the sex, all of that lovely information. but here's the big difference, we're not going to be able to see the royal baby any time soon because we know that meghan and harry have said that they want to have some private time to celebrate as a new family before they will release any photo. we did see prince harry, though, yesterday here in london out on sunday at the big london marathon. he was all smiles and we also know that doria, meghan's mother has been here in town for about a week now right by her daughter's side awaiting the birth of her first grandchild, paula. >> amy, we don't need to see the child to know it's going to be a beautiful child. we know they'll be celebrating their first anniversary in mid may. will and kate, reason to celebrate as well? >> reporter: yes, they are celebrating their eighth anniversary. wouldn't that be something if they had a new niece or nephew

the same day they were married eight years ago? we know that prince william came back from new zealand to be with his wife, and when he was asked about the new baby, the new royal baby, he jokingly said to the crowd, hey. you guys probably know more than i do because i haven't had my phone handy at all. he's back in town and will be here hopefully for the arrival of the new royal. and by the way, in six months we believe it could be that this new royal baby will have its first foreign trip and we'll have much more about that in our next hour. >> amy, this is not your first rodeo. you've been on this royal baby watch before. >> i had the great kate wait a few years ago. here i am back in the uk. >> good to have you there. >> she has a big smile. >> she does. coming up, we're talking about the "avengers: endgame" phenomen phenomenon, taking in over a billion dollars over the weekend. now let's get over to ginger. >> straight to the select cities brought to you by amazon echo.

investigating the cause of this tragic loss. nobles' death comes just two months after 20-year-old kierra evans died following her physical fitness assessment at that same camp. a coroner says an investigation into her cause of death is still ongoing. >> i really want to know what happened to kierra. how was it like the last days? what happened during training? i really believe that they pushed kierra too hard. i really do believe that. >> this training will not be easy. >> reporter: this promotional video called making a sailor shows how intense the fit physical fitness assessment, or pfa can be. >> your initial pfa is tomorrow. you need to understand that if you fail, you will get sent back. >> they'll be required to run a mile and a half, do a number amount of sit-ups and push-ups. some won't make it so someone will go home. >> five more. >> reporter: one recruit talking about how he pushed himself to the limit so he didn't get left behind. >> i felt sick during the pfa but i just pushed because i didn't want to get separated.

>> reporter: nobles' father now questioning those demands, telling wkrg these young people are so excited about serving their country and going into the military, are they doing enough to check them? does physical testing need to be more in-depth? and the navy declined to say whether nobles had a pre-existing condition that may have been waived in order for her to join. but guys, either way now two families left desperately wanting answers. >> they need those. thanks, janai, very much. thanks janai, and coming up, our "play of the day." but could you even see it? we're right back. m for college. in 24 hours, you'll send him off thinking you've done everything for his well being. but meningitis b progresses quickly and can be fatal, sometimes within 24 hours. while meningitis b is uncommon, about 1 in 10 infected will die. like millions of others, your teen may not be vaccinated against meningitis b. meningitis b strikes quickly. be quick to talk to your teen's doctor

[ applause ] >> hey, george. hey, george, how are you, buddy? [ applause ] >> good. come on in. >> hello, everyone. [ applause ] >> i can't believe this. but this is actually your first visit to "gma." >> it's the first time because i worked at cbs for such a long time they wouldn't allow me up here. you can't even say cbs or abc but they wouldn't let me appear

here, but now i'm free. >> now you can wear "gma" swag. >> i get all this? look at that. wow. [ applause ] wow. you guys are really swanky. look at that. here we go. yeah. >> wow. >> this is lovely. this is -- now the thing is i have to say there is a design flaw here. have you noticed? >> i haven't looked through them. >> it says good morning, america, so when you're walking around everybody knows that you're not on cbs. >> you were on cbs for ten years, "late late show." do you miss it at all? >> no, are you kidding me? the thing is about what happens is -- you probably know this. you're a big star, george. >> oh, i don't know. >> no, no. you are. [ applause ] so what happens is that when you work on a show like that there's about 150 people work on the show and all the time they're trying to make sure you're in a good mood, right? >> it's true. >> because i was talking backstage, like, make sure george is in a good mood because if he's not -- >> sick, but true. >> but when you go home to your

house, you know, i have a wife and young children. they don't care if i'm in a good mood. >> at all. >> so it's so confusing, and i prefer not to do it. >> you work from home now, right? you're a writer. >> yeah, i write. i can sometimes i can work in a starbucks or something. it's easy. >> tell us about the new book, "riding the elephant." where did that title come from? >> well, i went on vacation once and i rode an elephant, and so that gave me the idea. [ laughter ] and i wouldn't ride an elephant. i'm not advocating riding elephants. i don't think that's good. i don't know that the elephant was that -- i think the elephant thought i was a hat, but it was -- i was riding this elephant on vacation, and i thought, well, it's the story of what happened. one of the stories in the book is called "riding the elephant." it's the story of what happened on that vacation, and also it's a metaphor for life because, you know, you cannot -- it goes where it wants to go, and you

can give input, but it's not really paying attention. >> you go in so many different directions. you've done so many different things and i love how you talk about this came out of your experience on "late night" how one of your guests actually encouraged you to be crazy. >> oh, yeah, yeah, desmond tutu, archbishop desmond tutu because i was talking to him and he -- you know, because it was my job and -- [ laughter ] also i would talk to him anyway. but he said -- i said to him, you know -- we were talking and we were having fun. he said to me, you are crazy. and i said, well, because he's talked to some really crazy people in his life like bad crazy. >> stood up to them. >> yeah, i know. so i said -- i said to him -- well, i said, coming from you, father tutu, that's something. he said, no, no. you are the type of crazy we need. you have to be as crazy as you want so i figure that's like -- that's like from above really. that's like -- so you can be as crazy as you want. [ applause ] >> and i know you're touring the

u.s. the stand-up is "hobo fabulous"" >> "hobo fabulous" is the stand-up tour i just finished. because -- i called it that because, you know, jay leno was a friend of mine. i said to jay, i'm never putting this thing on tv. i changed my mind, but i said, i'm never putting this standup on tv because i want it just to be in the moment, and he said -- hey, hey, hey. because that's how he talks. he inhales a lot of exhaust fumes. >> all those cars. >> no, he said what are you talking about. you're like a hobo standing outside of a fancy restaurant telling everybody going in that you're never going to eat in that place again which i -- i don't even understand what he meant by that. but i kind of liked the sound of it. also, if you do stand-up, it's good to try these days to try to do nothing political at all. >> i read about this. just pure observational humor. >> yeah. was -- because i thought i wanted to try -- it was kind of an exercise for myself, to see if i could do an hour and a half

of standup without talking about politics at all. >> was it hard for you? >> well, no, it was difficult to write, but once it was done, it was -- it's just like everybody is doing politics right now which is fine and i'm not saying they shouldn't, but i thought, it will be interesting to try and not to do politics, so see if i could do it, and i figured if i did an hour and a half without talking about politics, it would give everybody in the audience a break -- >> a break, yeah. especially if they leave their phones. >> everything that you are angry about, will still be there an hour and a half later, but it gives you a little break. >> you wrote the book "riding the elephant." everybody in the audience is going home with a copy. thank yo

welcome back on a monday. we're now back with the celebration of queen, the drummer of the legendary rock band, roger taylor's going to join us in a moment but first we have a sneak peek at the new documentary "the show must go on: the queen + adam lambert story." take a look. >> oh. >> oh. ♪ oh >> ready to do this? >> yeah, hang on. >> it's very much like in the old days. we get together in the band room

and we do harmonies. that's what we do before a show. >> elvis is in the building. >> it oils up your vocal chords and it locks you in. you hear the other people and you rediscover how your voice fits into that structure, and i think it's quite valuable for us to do that. ♪ >> here we go. ♪ she's a killer queen gunpowder gelatin ♪ ♪ dynamite with a laser beam guaranteed to blow your mind ♪ ♪ anytime recommended at the price insatiable an appetite ♪ >> can't wait to see more. queen drummer roger taylor joins us now live from london. roger, thank you. [ applause ] clearly you've got a lot of fans in studio here so the new

documentary, it really picks up where "bohemian rhapsody" leaves off with the death of freddie mercury. so at that moment did you think that the band was over for good? did you think the band would survive? >> well, frankly, no, we didn't think the band -- we thought it was all over. i think brian and i, we kind of thought, well, that was the end of that chapter and everything that's happened especially, you know, since we met adam has just been fate unfolding, and i guess this film tonight is telling the basic story of that. >> you talk about fate unfolding when you reached your first number one hit here in the u.s., crazy little thing called love adam lambert wasn't even born. so what was it about him that made you think, he's our guy? he needs to be our front man? >> i don't think we realized at first. a friend of mine called me up and said, i've just seen this most amazing singer on "american idol."

and we -- i checked it out and he was singing "a whole lotta love" by led zeppelin and just blowing it away. fantastic and we got in touch. we were then asked to do the final of "idol" which we flew over to do with the two finalists and we just got on magically with adam and did a couple of things in the next year, and it sort of grew into touring, and we formed a sort of magical partnership now which just works beautifully. >> and you have been working together, you and adam since 2012. when do you think freddie would have thought about adam? >> i think he would have absolutely loved adam, you know. i think he would have gone, huh, like, boy, he can sing. >> that's his reaction. >> i know it's early in the morning there so better be polite. >> don't get too cheeky. can you still hit those high

notes of "bohemian rhapsody"? >> i can only try. yeah. >> well, we won't go there. why won't ask you to do that. >> oh, thank you. i'm so pleased. >> pleasure to have you, roger taylor. really looking forward to this documentary. i know you're going out on tour soon so good luck. thanks again for joining us and "the show must go on: the queen + adam lambert story" hairs tonight on abc at 8:00, 7:00 central, ginger. i thought i was going to go to sleep early tonight, but now i'm not, because i'll be watching that. speaking of this morning, the cold, how about i bring it to you? sub freezing from buffalo, new york, to cumberland, maine. don't worry because the baby goats that are there, have new pajam pajamas. they were made by the farmer. we wanted to give you light there before we good morning, i'm abc 7 news meteorologist mike nicco, increasing sunshine, and temperatures average to a little

below average as you get closer to san francisco and the coast. coolest tomorrow, all righrrow, all right. add baby goats in pajamas. >> thank you, ginger. closer look at who may be the royal baby's godparents. prince harry and duchess meghan have a long list of family, friends, athletes and celebrities to choose from. amy and will are in windsor with the detail. hey, guys. >> yeah, well, we have some details, george, because there aren't a lot of them going around right now. we don't yet know what the ro t royals are going to call their new addition. we have to wait and see on that one, but will here has been looking into all the potential possibilities. >> yes, doing a deep dive. is it going to be a royal godparent, maybe someone from showbiz from back in the states. speculation abounds, but we looked into some possible contenders for this crucial role.

>> reporter: baby sussex is nearly here. doria, the soon-to-be granny is on hand to help. the nursery, probably all prepped by now but wonder have harry and meghan chosen who will be godparents to the royal bundle of joy? >> it would be surprising if william and kate were chosen as godparents to this baby. harry isn't godparent to any of william's children and that's clearly a reflection of the fact when you are an uncle or aunt you already have a role. >> reporter: the list of contenders is impressive. will the royal couple choose another royal, perhaps harry's cousin, zara tindall? he is after all reportedly godfather to her youngest lena. >> i think a strong contender would be princess eugenie. >> reporter: or will they go for a member of meghan's circle? maybe close confidante jessica mulroney or her childhood friend benita whose children were bridesmaids at the wedding or old school chum like harry's former partner in crime tom inskip.

they could even opt for sports royalty. tennis ace serena williams, who put on that lavish baby shower for the duchess, or maybe they'll want to beef up the baby's humanitarian credentials, with human rights lawyer amal clooney as godmum. i guess we'll just have to wait until the christening. so that christening we would expect to be about eight weeks after the birth if harry and meghan follow the footsteps of will and kate, but we know they don't really like to do that, at least thus far. >> exactly. i think that's a very fair assessme assessment. and think it's funny we're sitting here talking about the christening, the baby's trip to africa and the baby hasn't even been born. >> a busy schedule for this upcoming baby. hasn't even been born yet. got a lot of plans, a lot of people very interested. >> yes. >> in this royal baby. >> i know ginger has been wa waitg for every small detail she can get about baby ssex. >> every single moment of my life, you are right, will, amy, thank you. i actually already got the baby a gift.

you'll see it right here in front of me. it's a head of michael strahan and with it sara comes along. >> every new baby needs a bust of michael strahan. >> that's right. >> but we deal -- [ applause ] >> it's not really because you're going to be doing this on set. >> i was going to say it's not a baby gift. ginger does better than that. we sent michael's hall of fame bust out into times square to talk to people. check it out. >> what number did i wear? >> 22? >> wrong. give me a push-up. >> that's all coming up today. >> it's kind of scary. >> it's super spooky. it's a cool app. it's debuting some new technology that will be on the show later. >> he won't talk to us now, right? >> we will punk you, ginger. coming up on "gma," we have got something else. so much fun,

back now with actress tiffani thiessen who we first fell in love with on "saved by the bell" and "90210" and she is here with her husband, brady smith, and they are here with a new children's book. it is beautiful, and it's called "you're missing it!" we want to make sure nobody out here misses it. congrats on this. i had a chance to read it. so beautiful and poignant and heartbreaking because we miss moments because our faces are buried in our cell phones but you dedicated it to the kids, saying, harper and holt, always keep your heads up and eyes open. there is a lot of beauty out there you don't want to miss. what inspired you to write this book for your kiddos? >> i think it's a story that's very relevant for all of us. we're in a time where it's all about, you know, instant gratification or jobs are having to get ahold of us right away, and we're always on our phones and it's a discussion we had a little bit, and i think it was a realization that we had about our society and just constantly having our head down instead of up and seeing the beauty that we have all around us.

>> the kids are out there exploring. [ applause ] and the parent has got to face buried in the phone. you illustrated this book so good. >> thank you. >> i hear your daughter, harper is 8 and your son is 3 but your daughter had a problem with it. >> yeah. sort of, yeah. she looked through the whole book and her only constructive criticism was, where am i? [ laughter ] it's about a father and son in the park and the dad is on the phone all the time. and the little boy is trying to relate and get him to look up and -- >> see what he's seeing. i think a lot of times we have seen so much we think in our lives because we're so much older, but the beauty that our children see is very different. >> totally. >> it's very innocent. >> it's a first. >> a first and everything seems to be brighter and bigger and to really see it through children's eyes is really a whole new way of looking at the world. >> yeah, we want to look at your family and how you guys stay in the moment. stay present. we have some video of you. you have dance parties. >> we do.

>>kay, so tell me about some of these dance moves we're going to see. >> oh, yes. >> oh, dad. brady. >> my husband got the moves. [ applause ] >> who came up with this idea? >> it's funny. we both come from great silly families and truly between his sister and my family, my mom and dad who are watching our kids right now, like we're super fortunate to have families that are very connected. we have good examples. >> we try to do as far as back to the unplugging thing is at dinners -- >> no phone. >> no electronics. >> we listen to music. we talk about our day. we both grew up in households where dinnertime was how we connected after we were at school and my dad was at work and, you know, it was our way of saying, hey, what happened today? >> so it's called "you're missing it!" are we missing out on a reboot of "saved by the bell"? we know we had that great picture of you guys, the cast

getting back together. is there a chance even like 1% chance that this happens? >> more dinners but that's probably about it. >> saying there's a chance. i didn't hear definitively -- >> i just -- i don't think so. i mean, we are all different things. i have a show, and mark alpaul s a new show, and mario's got things. we're busy and i don't think so but it was a really fun night. >> everyone is bummed. >> we had a lot of good -- we had a lot of fun. we really did. >> you'll have a lot of fun reading this. this is such a beautiful book. wonderful job illustrating it and thank you for bringing it to us so we don't miss out. "you're missing it!" is available tomorrow. we'll be right back. this is so beautiful. [ applause ]
