Hamlet (h) climbed on the beam (横) of the engine's kitchen ((e)ng2) and now he is too afraid to come down again. If the Yellow Emperor (黄) doesn't want to call the fire brigade, for better or worse he'll have to climb the Christmas Tree (木) to pick Hamlet up.

Chantal Chicken (chu) is totally crazy about creating wind instruments from vegetables lately. In front of the Eiffel Tower (ei1) she stole a mandarin (口) from a local merchant and left an IOU note (欠) instead. She carved the mandarin out and created a little ocarina out of it, which she plays by blowing (吹) into it every since.
