[sh-] Shrek is in the [4] bathroom of the [-a] auditorium on a bathroom break from the play. He is dressed as a 厦 tall building, the only role he could land in the play, owing to his smelly ogre appearance. Because of his 厦 tall building costume, he cannot see the 一 ground with his 目 eye, so he blindly walks forward, not realizing that the auditorium bathroom is actually on top of a large 厂 cliff. He walks and walks until he 丶 drops off the 厂 cliff into the abyss. The 攵 foreman, who witnessed it all as they stood at the sink, wonders why a walking 厦 tall building that smelled like an ogre entered the bathroom and seemingly ended their life.
