【明報專訊】Bill is supposed to make a plan for beating Eason today, but he is always distracted by what happens around him.

“ Bill: Let me finish it today! ”

“ Eason(in MoMo's voice): Hello Bill, we have a fair at the town centre today. Come and join us! ”

“ Bill: I will come later! ”

“ Eason(imitating a dog): Woof! ”

“ Bill: Is that a dog? I wonder where it has come from... ”

“ Bill: Oh, I've ended up finishing nothing today. ”

“ Dr Panda: You should've concentrated on one task at a time as I always do. ”
