My sister Danielle (di) is planning to open a new store selling freshly ground coffee ( my 'zhan' prop is an old fashioned coffee grinder). However the only place she can rent is the bathroom of her friend Ann's house! Undeterred she paints the whole bathroom like a vast starry sky, starts grinding coffee, puts an 'open' sign on the bathroom door and.... The coffee store is ready for business!

Debbie (di-) is in the bathroom (4th tone) at Olivia’s (-an) about to setup shop. She cleans the bathroom with the iRobot (广) then puts the do not disturb sign (占) out while she preps for her new cannabis STORE. Olivia screams! You can’t sell cannibis gummies from my bathroom for your new STORE!
