[t-] Tarzan is in the [4] bathroom of the [-ang] chapel, where there is an 昜 enclosure that is on 火 fire. He grabs some holy water and 氵 sprays the 火 fire until it goes away. Relieved, he leans against the still-hot 昜 enclosure, 燙 scalding himself badly. He screams and dips his arms into some holy water by the sink to relieve the 燙 scalding pain.
