Mnemonic


[xu-] Professor X is in the [4] bathroom of the [-(e)n] infirmary where he is trying 驯 to tame a 马 horse that has gotten loose and wrecked most of the stalls and sinks in the bathroom, in addition to trampling some poor sick patients. He does this by using his mental powers to force the 马 horse to go over to a 川 stream of water that comes from the broken pipes and sinks. The 马 horse drinks the water, which is laced with all sort of mind control drugs that the nurses put there, and successfully becomes 驯 tamed by Professor X.
