Ken's piece is a *Rakugo story which a man plays 6 characters that are talking about what they like and don't like the most, a quiet one admits that he is afraid of feast. He starts to shudder and turns away from everyone. The other five decide to tease the quiet one with feast.

*Rakugo Rakugo is a form of Japanese verbal entertainment. The lone storyteller sits on stage and without standing up from the sitting position, the rakugo artist depicts a long and complicated comical (or sometimes sentimental) story. The story always involves the dialogue of two or more characters. The difference between the characters is depicted only through change in pitch, tone, and a slight turn of the head.
