What are you gonna do

with it, have it stuffed?

No, I wanna marry it.

I- What?

Then when I'm a princess,

I'll divorce him and marry you.

Well? You asked me to come back.

Haven't you anything to say

about your extraordinary behavior?

I'm sorry it happened, and I said

so. What made you do such a thing?

The reason one does things

isn't always clear.

It's perfectly clear to me.

You did it because you're fresh,

irresponsible, indifferent to the decorum

of my ship and safety of my guests.

Isn't that true?

Answer me!

Well, I-I wouldn't say that. A full grown

man who should be doing something useful...

like trying to rise

in your professin,

making yourself fit to command

a ship of your own someday.

But you haven't anything on your mind but

singing songs or playing games with bears.

I also scrub decks.

You are being impertinent.

I haven't said anything

disrespectful... yet.

You annoy me so,

I could slap your face.

Well, if it would make

you feel any better.

Ohh! Is there anything else, ma'am?

Get below and never put

your foot on this deck again!

The next port we touch, you're

dismissed! Yes, ma'am. Good night.

Fog lifting any? No sign of it yet, sir.

[f some sweet bambino

says you are his queen-o

Then in some casino

he fills you with vino

The charts!

They're overboard!

Charts. Don't be silly. Christopher

Columbus never had any charts.

It's more sporting,

more exciting...

to sail out

into the unknown.

Now see what you've done now. Take

the wheel. I'll call the skipper.

No, no, no, don't bother.

Don't bother.

I'll steer this ship like the ancient Phoenicians

- by the stars.

This is serious, sir.

Oh, calm yourself.

Men nowadays use too many

gadgets. There's the North Star.

The North Star is there.

That's the North Star. I'll

show you. Just a minute.

We're on a reef!.

Close all watertight doors!

Three feet of water

in the port hold, sir.

Everybody on deck, and put

on your life preservers!

We're sinking!

The owner and passengers will

leave in Mr.Johnson's boat.

Everything is okay now,

my darling.

Captain said to shove

off at once. Right.

Are you coming?

One minute.

Don't worry, Edith.

I'll save you.

She's filling up fast, sir.

Stand by the pumps.

Where you goin'?

I forgot Droopy, sir.

Hurry up, Doris!

We're sinking!

- Soon as I get my clothes on!

- A life preserver's more important.

I haven't got one!

We'll save you!

I'm practically

in the water now.

Hubert!

There goes our sea skate!

Look, Droopy!

Good night

Lovely little lady

[ must say adieu to you

And your loveliness

Good night

Lovely little lady

How it makes me grieve

to leave

The charms you possess
