Charlie Chaplin (ch) wants to visit engine, but he's held up at the entrance ((e)ng2). If he wants to enter he has to pass a lie detector test first. He readily takes the test and answers all questions very honestly (诚), and the progress bar mounted on top of an advertising column (讠) shows steady progress. At the very end however the progress bar is stuck at 99% (成) and won't progress regardless of how honest (诚) Charlie answers his questions.

Maud Younger rushes into anthill and in the kitchen she uses a megaphone to loudly announce that the world revolution will soon start. She also tells the people that she has berets for everyone so that everyone will be able to be in style for the revolution. However she doesn't tell that she prepared the berets in another way: to each beret, she attached a mandarin via two capacitors which forms a formidable antenna, so that after the revolution, she'll be able to transmit her speeches directly to the wearers' brains.
