We're not too badly off, are we?

We've got each other, the family,

- food to eat.

- Even a tent to keep the rain off,

if we had sense enough to use it.

Now don't worry. Try to go back to

sleep.

I'm soaked!

- Having trouble?

- I'll get it down,

but it may take a while.

Easy.

Wait a minute. Hold him.

Easy!

I keep trying to tell her

it's for her own good.

A ship! There's a ship!

Ahoy! Ahoy there!

I think they've seen us.

Take a look, Fritz.

- There's something on the sail...

- I knew it.

It's the pirate ship that chased us

into the storm. Get down!

And I deliberately tried

to get their attention.

This time we have a weapon.

- Do you know how to fire it?

- I think so. Let's pull it back.

I'll get a keg of powder. See if you

can find some rags, for wadding.

I know. I'll be right back.

We'll only have one shot. Let's wait

until we can't possibly miss.

- What's happening?

- They're going away.

Did they see us loading

the cannon and get scared?

Pirates scared off by one cannon

and three people?

Do you know what they're up to?

What's that?

A quarantine flag,

warning there's Black Death aboard.

How did you know that?

Well, I do a bit of reading too.

Come on, Fritz.

- Pull those new lines tight.

- Right.

Yes, that's it. There.

No! What's the matter with you?

Not that way, stupid. This way.

- Maybe it's too much for one trip.

- We had to try.

Sharks!

- You got one!

- Watch that one coming in.

- There's another one.

- I'll get it.

- I hit it!

- Here comes another one!

Get out of here!

Got one.

Look out, Ernst, there's another.

- No, it's a turtle.

- We disturbed him with our shots.

I think we scared them away.

It's pulling us!

Better to use your head

than break your back, I always say.

Francis, see if you can find the...

Where are you?

Here, Duke, Turk. Here, boys.

Where's Francis? Go find him.

Now you wait just one minute and I'll

have some sugarcane for you.

Now, come along, little fella.

I won't hurt you.

Now, just let me fix this.

Here, little elephant. Come here.

That's right.

Come on, little elephant.

I wouldn't hurt you.

Come on, little fella.

I wouldn't hurt you.

I have some nice fresh sugarcane

for you.

Come on.

Come on. Just a little closer.

That's right.

Come on, little fella.

Francis, where are you?

Now you just put your foot...

right there.

Come on, little elephant.

A little closer.

Just a little bit closer.

Right...

Now stop pulling!

What's the matter?

You get out of here!

Francis, where are you?

You get away from my elephant.

Get out. He's my elephant.

Duke, Turk, come on!

You bit him enough.

Good old Duke.

Did I tell you
