[di-] Diddy Kong is in [1] front of the [-an] pawn shop trying to read a 頁 page of text that he bought. It all seems gibberish to him... because the 頁 page is 顛 inverted. He realizes the 真 true orientation of the 頁 page and 顛 inverts himself by hanging from the eave of the pawn shop. Now he can read the 頁 page.
