[s-] Spongebob is in the [4] bathroom of the [-e] electricity plant where he is trying to enter a bathroom stall. Next to it stands an electric robot that asks Spongebob to pay a fee of one pair of 丷 horns. Spongebob, being unusually 啬 stingy today, refuses and instead just gives the robot a clump of Bikini Bottom 土 soil that he had in his pocket. The robot, unhappy at how 啬 stingy Spongebob is being presses a button which opens up a huge 回 whirlpool underneath Spongebob, sucking him in and evicting his 啬 stingy spongy bottom from the premises.
