[ti-] Timmy Turner is in [1] front of the [-(e)ng] English manor, with a bunch of nets he made from a 壬 spool of thread in one hand and a 
net gun in the other. He sits there 聽 listening, waiting for any 耳 ears to try to sneak out the front door. He accidentally summoned them into the manor via a wish. He hears them and captures them with the
net gun. The ears never 聽 listen, and keep on trying to escape.
