<p align="justify">Besides its addicting story and star-studded cast, “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/paraiso2023/"><em><strong><u>Pira-Pirasong Paraiso</u></strong></em></a>” has captured viewers with its epic lines. The whole experience of watching the series won’t be complete if you have not been amused by the characters’ “linyahan,” especially those signature catchphrase.</p><p align="justify">The teleserye might be ending in a few days, but these dialogues will be impossible to erase from our minds.</p><p align="justify">Elisse Joson added sparkling flavors to the series as the ‘jologs’ yet fierce Hilary. Part of our amusement is seeing Elisse unleash a different side of her. We mean, we didn’t know she can be this funny, so much so that some of her dialogues trended on social media. There was one scene of Hilary meeting up with a customer, asking him in thick Pinoy accent, <strong>“Ar yu redi to hab pan?” </strong></p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="604" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/zCXTqZ7vmHw" title="Hilary is thrilled when Jonaf saves her | Pira-Pirasong Paraiso" width="1583"></iframe></div><p align="justify">She also knows how to own a scene by adding her mark on it through her signature expression, <strong>“Perpek!”</strong></p><div align="justify"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="604" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-OM7f9WXD4s" title="Hilary asks Jonaf on a date | Pira-Pirasong Paraiso" width="1583"></iframe></div><div align="justify"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="604" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/k0qlekC03Hc" title="Diana see Hilary in her kitchen | Pira-Pirasong Paraiso" width="1583"></iframe></div><p align="justify">You know that feeling when a teleserye character resonates with you and their line touches deep within your soul? Angela/Beth, played by Alexa Ilacad, delivered realistic anguish and some life lessons on the side when she rejected Diana (Charlie Dizon)’s apology for their tragic past, <strong>“Ano, panay pera?! None of your stupid money can ever change the past.”</strong> </p><div align="justify"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="604" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RAY7L8j7zWU" title="Angela slaps Diana repeatedly | Pira-Pirasong Paraiso" width="1583"></iframe></div><p align="justify"><strong>“Clap, clap, clap!”</strong> will forever be iconic, and the credit goes to veteran actress Snooky Serna, who plays the villain Judge Jacinda Sebastian. In real life, we’re used to hearing this one-liner delivered in the most cheery way possible (as clapping is associated with celebrations) until Jacinda made it her own. She either fuses it with sarcasm or say it with full-blown rage that she sounds like a fire-breathing dragoness.</p><p align="justify">A worthy opponent of Jacinda came in the person of Amanda Barrameda (Maricel Soriano) the grandmother of the Paraiso sisters on whom she’s been extremely hating. There was a scene where Jacinda spitted out threats at Amanda, who didn’t even flinch, <strong>“Hindi ako natatakot sa’yo, Judge Jacinda. Ha, ha, ha!” </strong></p><div align="justify"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="604" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/iX-zbO2czYY" title="Amanda startles Jacinda about the truth | Pira-pirasong Paraiso" width="1583"></iframe></div><p align="justify">It seems Judge Jacinda has a penchant for repeating words to emphasize her ‘gigil’. Remember that scene where she dodged Elon (KD Estrada)’s question about her alleged involvement in a journalist’s death? When asked if she truly terrorized some reporters in the past, Jacinda replied, <strong>“No! No! No! No! Ilang ‘no’ ba ang gusto mong sabihin ko sa’yo para maniwala ka?”</strong></p><div align="justify"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="604" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/w1nzjLqE_pw" title="Jacinda dodges Elon" s="" question="" Pira-Pirasong="" width="1583"></iframe></div><p>Kontrabidas will truly never  go out of style, especially those who can come up with exciting catchphrases. Joining the second season as Criselda, the syndicate leader bent on destroying the Paraiso sisters due to an embittered past, Rosanna Roces was both scary an exciting to watch. Whenever she’s unsatisfied with her minions’ performance, she’d send shivers down their spine by asking them, <strong>“Kaya pa ba?” </strong></p><div align="justify"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="604" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/KS0V0b0o_Zs" title="Criselda proves her fierce attitude towards Badong | Pira-Pirasong Paraiso" width="1583"></iframe></div><p align="justify">There were also lines form the series that melted the coldest of hearts. One of the most ‘kilig’ was from Elon’s speech during her marriage proposal to Beth: <strong>“I want to be the man that you deserve. And I hope, today, I am that man.”</strong></p><div align="justify"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="604" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/fZkVaqSlWLM" title="Elon" s="" exciting="" wedding="" proposal="" for="" Beth="" Pira-Pirasong="" width="1583"></iframe></div><p align="justify">As the mother figure to Baby (Loisa Andalio), Kano (Markus Paterson), and Hilary, ‘momshie’ Osang (Sunshine Dizon) shared some relatable quotes as well. In one scene, she told Baby to manage her expectations to save herself from heartbreaks. <strong>“Huwag ka nang umaasa para hindi ka nasasaktan... Huwag ka nang nagbibilang ng wala kasi ang importante ay ‘yung nasa harapan mo, kasi ‘yun ang totoo.”</strong> </p><div align="justify"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="604" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/U9S9Jbr9Dbc" title="Osang advises Baby about her dream | Pira-Pirasong Paraiso" width="1583"></iframe></div><p>Catch the <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/paraiso2023/"><em><strong>Pira-Pirasong Paraiso “Ang Huling Laro”</strong></em></a> this week, on <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/kapamilya-channel-livestream-12685"><em><strong><u>Kapamilya Channel</u></strong></em></a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@abscbnentertainment"><em><strong><u>Kapamilya Online Live</u></strong></em></a>, TV5, and A2Z.</p>
