再衰三竭

再 = 一 + 冉 : Zorro finally received the flute he was waiting for so long in the airplane's bathroom. He is so moved that he cries 再见 again and again and waves the mail snail goodbye with a handkerchief.

衰 = 丑 + 衣 : Sheldon Shrimp (shu) is feeling very awkward in front of the airplane (ai1). He is on a date with an ox (丑), but the oxen's kilt (衣) is so old and feeble (衰) that it is falling apart.

三 = 一 + 二 : Mnemonic symbol: a Cartesian coordinate system with three (三) axes.

Socrates (s-) is performing in front of the anthill (-an1). He created an electrical flute by attaching a large capacitor (二) to the flute (一), so that he can get the attention of all the ants. Moreover, he's balancing on a Cartesian coordinate system (三). Unfortunately, only three (三) ants stop to watch the performance.

竭 = 曷 + 立 : Joan of Arc (ji) is taking part in a game show in the elevator's kitchen (e2). The top prize, a very beautiful vase (立), is standing right next to her. She is just about to spin the quiz wheel (曷) for the last time, but unfortunately she already exhausted (竭) all of her jokers.
