Return

Pop the name of a method (can be the empty string), pop an object, pop the number of arguments, pop each argument, call the method (function) of the object, push the returned value on the stack.

When the string is empty, the constructor is called. This is used by the system right after a new operator was called and most of the time the return value is simply discarded.
