STATEMENTS At the beginning of the party, four penguins are facing to the left and other six are facing to the right. The waiter-penguin is wearing a tie. Two penguins reject the offer that the waiter-penguin makes them. The waiter-penguin cuts three slices from the bottom of the cake. When the waiter-penguin finds out that he has dropped a cherry, he throws it into a trash can.

STATEMENTS After the cherry is thrown, it falls into one of the guests’ mouth. One of the guests chokes on wine. One of the guests’ hat gets on fire with a cigarette.
