For the record, you're making a little less sense today than you
normally do.

Oh, sure I did, but I was trying to make a joke in that, when completely
nonsensical, Robatoy is only slightly less, aw, nevermind. Explaination
kills the joke...

Oh, my God, I don't know.. oh, it might be land, maybe it's another
boat.. Oh, daft, it might be a cloud! No, I can't tell, this damn thing
is torturing me. Oh, maybe it's a cloud, I'm not sure, oh dear!
Captain Ned: [ walking up ] Mr. Spunk! Have you spied land?
First Mate Spunk: I'm not sure! Somebody else get up here and look! If I
say it's land, and we make for it and it's not, I'll get yelled for it!
Captain Ned: Alright! [ peers through telescope ]
Miles Cowperthwaite (Voice/Over): "What Mr. Spunk had sighted was not
land at all, but a small, open boat. Which, upon closer inspection, was
found to contain two remarkable passengers."
[ two women climb onboard The Raging Queen ]
Captain Ned: [ greeting them ] I am Captain Ned, of The Raging Queen!
Tell me.. are there any males with you?
Madeline Warrington: No. Just my sister and I.
Ruth Warrington: Yes. My name is Ruth Warrington. This is my sister
Madeline. We were crossing the West Indies, when pirates seized our
ship. They took our entire crew prisoners.
Captain Ned: [ thinking ] Hmm.. Uh.. can you tell me, were these pirates
manly and verile?
Madeline Warrington: They were contemptible animals, who subjected our
ship's crew to the most unspeakable torture!
First Mate Spunk: Do you suppose these pirates might still be anywhere
in the area.
Ruth Warrington: Yes. I'm afraid they may yet be very close..
Captain Ned: I see. [ runs to address his crew ] Men! There are pirates
in these waters! Pirates who inflict hideous punishment to those who
fall into their hands! [ crew oohs ] Now, we can turn tail and run. Or,
we can take the manly course, that which our manhood demands! Find these
despots of discipline, and comfort them! What is your answer!!
Crew: Find the pirates!!
Captain Ned: So it will be done! Stand by to incur the waters!
