始料未及

始 = 台 + 女 : In the space station Sherlock Holmes and Bessie Coleman are shaking hands over a counter. After their long negotiations this could be the start of a wonderful business relationship.

料 = 斗 + 米 : Li Qingzhao sees the matador fighting a sack of rice in the aorta's bathroom. At least she thinks she is fighting the sack of rice as he is repeatedly stabbing it. Truth is that he is working as inspector and taking samples of the rice to inspect the material.

未 = 一 + 木 : Mnemonic symbol: the artist Ai Weiwei. Shortly after finishing a new installation in the Eiffel Tower's bathroom (ei4), Ai Weiwei (未) is imprisoned by Willy Walrus (w), because—out of all places—Ai Weiwei put his new installation right into Willy Walrus's toilet. Ai Weiwei's installation is a Christmas tree (木) with a tiny, slightly tilted flute (一) on top. Ai Weiwei would really, really like to correct the tilted flute, but so far, Willy Walrus has not yet (未) let him out.

及 = ㇏ + 乃 : Mnemonic symbol: Chinese General 宇文化及 (yu3 wen2 hua4 ji2) from the seventh century.

及 = ㇏ + 乃 : Just inside the space station's entrance a poltergeist is harassing Joan of Arc and Yuwen Huaji by pointing with his fingers at them.
