Chantal Chicken (chu) found a way to listen to a mosquito (虫) in the space station's bathroom (Ø4): The mosquito is speaking into the small hole of a horn (角), and Chantal holds her ear to the wide end of the horn. In this way she can listen to the very touching (触) stories of the mosquito. After the mosquito finished Chantal wants to touch it (触) and pat it on the shoulder, but she accidentally smashes the mosquito.

:
Joan of Arc (ji) locked herself out of the space station again. In front of the space station (Ø1) she tries to break (击) the door open using her electric mortar (击). The mortar has to be a few meters away from the door but the receptacle (凵) for its cord is right next to the door, so Joan of Arc plugs the mortar in using a toy claw (扌).
