[ch-] Charlie Brown is [2] inside the [-ang] chapel where he takes off his exotic hat and places it on the altar before going into the confessional. When he comes out he finds that 亻 Slenderman stole it! He is wearing it while sitting on the pew. Charlie Brown decides to 偿 repay him by kicking him in the groin. 亻 Slenderman is in such pain from this 偿 repayment that he jumps up and through the roof until he reaches the 云 clouds. Because the roof damage is from Charlie, he has to 偿 repay the priests his church fee to make up for it.
