Captain Ron Page #5

---

- I dropped the wash cloth.

I gotta open the door.

It went down the drain!

B & O Railroad. That's $ 1.25.

- Just turn off the water.

- I'm trying to turn it off!

- This is a piece of junk!

- Turn it the other way.

What? Did you drop it?

Three houses, 375! That's 37 cents.

- That's half the money I have left.

- Sh*t happens. Cough it up.

We're gonna run out of water.

Hang on.

By the way,

you owe me 2.50 for the beer.

- Just calm down.

- I got it!

Don't let my children find me

drowned and naked in the shower.

(WATER PUMP STOPS)

See? We're fine.

Boss?

Yes, Captain Ron?

Don't take long showers.

Eats up the fresh water.

Thank you for pointing that out.

- Boss?

- Yes, Captain Ron?

You know you got a mop

wedged against the door?

- Yes, I'm aware of that. Thank you.

- I wasn't.

Here, Boss. I'll just take...

- Sorry, Boss.

- No, it's fine.

- Everything's under control now.

- I'll help you clean up.

- No, that's OK. Thanks.

- It's a lot of water.

Well, it's a boat.

I'll see you in the morning.

- Want me to close the door?

- Yes, that would be nice.

Hey!

Are you trying to cheat Captain Ron?

No, honest. What happened?

Nothing. They were playing

hide the salami in the shower.

( CALYPSO MUSIC)

Trip log, day five. At sea.

So far our adventure has been

sanding, painting and polishing.

But the boat is starting

to look a lot better.

You can make it look great

by cleaning the wood.

It's all wood.

I do have concerns

about other aspects of the voyage.

(INSECT BUZZING)

- Dad, the sander doesn't work.

- Here, I'll fix you up.

Captain Ron?

(SCREAMS)

Hey, Boss...

Man overboard!

- Throw me a line!

- Are you OK?

Yeah, I'm fine.

This could happen to anybody.

Here you are, Boss.

(MARTIN) Oww!

Always stand clear

of the ladder, Boss.

Concern is increasing

about our captain.

He lost our ladder,

he doesn't navigate.

In my opinion, he steers badly.

(RON) Jib, staysail, mainsail.

Mizzenmast, mizzenboom,

mizzen halyard winch.

- Is this "Full Metal Jacket"?

- It's the basics.

You gotta be prepared.

I mean big-time prepared.

Well, prepared for any normal...

It's the Caribbean, guys -

"El Caribe".The Spanish Main.

It's the land of voodoo,

hoodoo and all kinda weird sh*t.

Wow! Too cool.

It is important to know the basics,

and they're not that hard, right?

Right. Any dope can learn it.

This rigging. Standing or running?

- Kitty?

- Red running, blue standing.

You got it!

Head of the class!

(MUSIC:
BOB MARLEY'S "JAMMIN"')

Remember, when the sails go up,

you can't go dead into the wind.

A little this way, a little that way.

She's like a woman. Responds

to touch. The power of the wind...
