[w-] Walter White is in the [3] basement of the [-an] pawn shop where he is trying to 婉 tactfully sell a second-hand 宛 puppet to a lonely 女 woman who is down in the basement looking for something to occupy her life. Walter 婉 tactfully says that 宛 puppets are great for those who are very "maverick" or "independent" or "socially special", and the 女 woman, convinced, buys the 宛 puppet. Walter is truly 婉 tactful as a pawn shop salesman.
