If I were to lay this course, I'd choose myself a companion, a hearty companion, with a little blood on his sleeve and a predilection for rum, for song, and for the occasional wench.

[...]

- You mean... No one can see you except me?

- That's about the shape of it, son. And that's why I'll be sailing alongside of you. See? Wheresoever thou goest, there also will I go. So, let's drink to that.

- Are you sure you don't want to freshen your spleen?

- Now, let's get one thing straight! I want nothing to do with you! I'm gonna go to bed and you can go back into the woodwork, or wherever it is you came from.

- Belay that tongue! One thing old Blackbeard don't take kindly to, it's them sort of insenuendos. Come to think of it, I don't care for the cut of your jib, neither.

- If I were to lay this course, I'd choose myself a companion, a hearty companion, with a little blood on his sleeve and a predilection for rum, for song, and for the occasional wench.

- But what have I got? Hmm? I've got a shindly little beanrake with the shakes and the whimpers! Doesn't even want to join me in a drink!

- We're stuck with one another, you and I. The cruise may well be a long one. So you'd better make the best of it.

- And I take this opportunity of bidding you a very good night.

- Hey! Hey, wait a minute! Get off of my bed!
