In the observatory's kitchen (o2) Gitta Giraffe (gu) is practising her ballet performance. She got a whole crate (囗) full of jade bracelets (玉) and flags (国) and fixed one flag to each jade bracelet. This makes a perfect combination for throwing the ring with the flag waving behind it and catching the ring again after a few pirouettes.
Brunhilde (bi) has often been robbed by Robin Hood (宾) in front of the encampment ((e)n1), so she hired some soldiers (兵) to protect her. But even as she leaves the encampment even the soldiers cannot prevent Robin Hood from snatching away her brand new graduation cap (宀) from her head.
