Mnemonic


[w-] Walter White is in the [4] bathroom of the [-(e)i] beach house by the bay, going to the bathroom. He hears a ring in the bathtub, and looks inside. There is a 田 rice field in the bathtub, and on top of it a barrette with a 口 mouth that is making the ringing sound. He picks up the barrette and speaks into the 口 mouth: "喂 hello?". The barrette simply repeats the 喂 hello back to him, making him more confused.
