[ju-] Julius Caesar is in the [4] bathroom of the [-_] house, 懼 fearing what is in the bath tub. On the other side of the shower curtain, in the bathtub, is an ancient Roman 隹 turkey with two 目 eyes that, if you stare into them, will extract your 忄 soul. Despite 懼 fearing it, he looks into the 隹 turkey's 目 eyes, and sees his 忄 soul leave him. "Et tu, 隹 turkey!" he exclaims.
