[ch-] Charlie Brown is in [1] front of the [-(e)ng] English manor where the rich kids play a prank on him. They make him hold a glitter bomb 撑 propped up above his head with his 手 hands. They then sit 撑 propped up on the grass and try to throw 扌 fingers at the glitter bomb that Charlie Brown holds to see if they can trigger it and make it explode. Charlie runs around the immaculate lawn with the glitter bomb still 撑 propped up. Poor Charlie Brown.
