Furious, he sits up in bed and screams at the faucet. This is a decidedly non-comical example, since it is intended to show Shin's psychological disintegration due to war trauma.

When he gets a call from the water company, after many hours of suffering, telling him that they are shutting down the water from lack of payment, Donald's response is one of joy.
