I'm a bit under the weather so you only get a Mildly Supersized Saturday puzzle today, specifically a FourCells (the other reason for the fairly moderate size is that there's only so much you can do with the gimmick of this puzzle before it gets repetitive).

FourCells has only been featured once before:

But we've had a couple of appearances of FiveCells, which is the same thing but using pentominoes.
