[bi-] Bigfoot is in the [4] bathroom of the [-an] pawn shop where he is trying to 辨 differentiate a pile of 辛 peppers he just washed off in the sink into two piles. The two 辛 pepper piles are divided by a vintage second-hand 刂 saber that lies in the middle of the tile floor. Bigfoot uses his sense of smell to 辨 differentiate the good from the bad 辛 peppers, organizing them into respective piles.
