他鄉遇故知

他 = 也 + 亻 : An excavator sees Rosa Luxemburg and Tecumseh whisper secretly in front of the ashram. He wants to approach them, when Rosa raises her arm and points at him.

乡 = 幺 + 丿 : Mnemonic symbol: a tractor.

乡 = 幺 + 丿 : Marie Curie's tractor got stuck in a pile of bananas in front of the anglepod, with the wheels spinning helplessly. Her last hope is that she'll be able to free the tractor by pushing aces under the wheels, so that she can bring the tractor back to her hometown.

遇 = 禺 + 辶 : When Yu the Great (yu) first met (遇) 禺狨王, he was very nice to her. In the space station's bathroom (Ø4) he complimented Yu the Great on her nice gladiator sandals (辶) that day.

故 = 古 + 攵 : Mnemonic symbol: This character only appears in 做, so we don't need a strong mnemonic symbol. We should be able to refer to 故 when we think of 故事 or 故意. Because it fits nicely to its components, I'll think of it as in the meaning of 故墓, an old grave.

故 = 古 + 攵 : There is an ancient cloister in the space station's bathroom, and Gitta Giraffe once heard a story from her fellow astronauts that there's an old tomb inside with lots of treasure. One day she can't hold herself back anymore and deliberately breaks the cloister open using a sledgehammer.

知 = 口 + 矢 : Mnemonic symbol: Francis Bacon is attributed to have stated "scientia potentia est", "knowledge is power". I'll thus represent 知 by Francis Bacon. Francis Bacon (知) and James II of England (zh) are playing darts (矢) in front of the space station (Ø1). Because they lack a dart board they just use a mandarin (口).
