Taring the beaker

"Bicker" is an actual surname of Dutch origins in English, conveniently enough. For those city-dwelling folks and/or not Bible-wise, "tare" is a plant that look like wheat when it's young. I guess it's more or less common knowledge but who knows.

In Chemistry, "to tare" is the action of putting a conteiner in a scale and hitting the "tare" button to reset the weight to zero. This way, you can read the actual weight of the thing you are interested.

It was difficult to translate this one, since it was a pun. In Portuguese, the joke is totally different, due to "tared beaker" in Portuguese sounding exactly like "pervert Becker" in Portuguese ("tared", in Portuguese is "tarado" and so is "pervert"). The blue-shirted guy is a creep in both, though.
