The chess king (将) is commanding (将) his bats (夕) to attack Joan of Arc (ji) with sawdust (丬) in the anglepod's bathroom (ang4) to punish her for her sins. He gives the command by showing the thumbs up (寸) sign.
Mnemonic symbol: this character looks a bit like a bat, and bats come out of their caves at dusk. I could see the upper left 丿 as part of the bat's right wing, ㇇ as the body/head and 丶 as the eye of the bat.
Xi Shi (xi) goes out for a space walk in front of the space station (Ø1) in the evening (夕), where she observes a space bat.
