The scene opens with a slap from Tachikawa, who is in the middle of a soliloquy about how he is losing his mind. He tells us that he is "losing my mind" and is "cum-ming" . He says that when he is in a good mood, he slaps his tongue and squeezes his lips until he loses his "mind" and "slaps ah !" . The scene ends with a squeeze of his lips and a "splutter drip drip drip" , which is a fancy way of saying "swallowed up." .
