When nouns collide

Diagramming party to action stations: Fox News is on the loose again!

Pregnant frying pan attack teen surrenders

For extra credit, see how much fun you can have with one, two or three hyphens.

Fun with punctuation:

Pregnant Frying Pan: "attack!"
Teen surrenders

Pregnant? Frying-pan attack teen, surrenders

Pregnant? frying?
Pan attack, teen, surrenders

Pregnant-frying pan: Attack teen surrenders?

If we assume the odd cadence used by the Brit tabs, it reads:

"Teen who attacked pregnant frying pan has surrendered"

Which begs the question - who's the father? And how do you administer a paternity test to a pan?
