Albert Einstein (Ø) cut himself, so he wanted to treat his wound with wormwood (艾) and mugwort (艾) in the airplane's bathroom (ai4). He finds that he accidentally used artificial lawn (艹) instead, and much worse, it has been used by someone else before. Quickly he uses a pair of pliers (乂) to draw out the artificial lawn again to stop (艾) getting aids (艾).

Goethe (歌德) and Don Quixote (d) got into a discussion about ethics (德) and the moral (德) implications of wearing black sneakers (彳) just inside the elevator's kitchen (e2) which escalated pretty quickly. Now they are even not discussing anymore: instead, Don Quixote is ramming a flute (一) into Goethe's heart (心) with a cross (十) which he uses as a hammer. He doesn't want to make a mess though so he collects the blood flowing out of the other end of the flute in a shallow bowl (皿).
