Stu fires the rocket in his shell and goes to grab Gilbert. Gilbert tries to dodge away, but Stu snatches the waistband to Gilbert's underwear and gives him a mighty wedgy. Stu then tries to drop Gilbert onto Lucky. Lucky ducks down, and Gilbert bounces onto the deck.
Gilbert picks himself up and addresses the crew.
Gilbert: "Friends, shipmates, and mutants! Lend me your ears and assorted audio devices... Four score and seven seconds ago, our Captain brought forth upon this ship a really big gun. [dramatic pause] In closing, remember this: we don't get paid without the Captain! The ship is actually owned by an international investment bank and without the Captain, we'll all be out of work and our floating home will be sold to Marriott as a kids restaurant in Cleveland."
Captain: "Gilbert, ye cull, stop blatherin' and start swinging a sword. Lousy pirate."
Pooky giggles, rolls around, and cuddles up against Red Reaper, still sound asleep. No one knows what he is dreaming about, but something in his subconscious triggers his immolation and lights Red Reaper on fire.
