[zhu-] George Costanza is in the [4] bathroom of the [-_] house building a 柱 pillar to keep the sagging roof from falling down. He gets the trunk of a 木 tree and lodges it between the tile floor and the ceiling. Once the 柱 pillar is constructed, he places a lit 主 candlestick on the side of it, giving the bathroom a nice romantic lighting.
