Mark and companies just 3 people sitting commissioners began looking forward to the show while all busy taking care of the big party.
But Mark saw there was a table where a man and 3 women did not participate busy. Curious, Mark was approaching them. It turns out that these four men are holding hands and praying. Sound by Mark that they pray for the factory, employees and grateful for their work.
