[christyb]

Mother: *to Hevej* Stay out of this. I never liked you. Besides last time you saw me I looked and acted quite differently. Not to mention I took your last ship captive and sold the booty but we won't go into that.*to father* Answer me now!!! What are you doing here? Why did I find Vic at home alone? Why did you drag the kids in with this...this...riff raf!

 

[Beauregard]

Hevej: No way!!!

Father: Yes...

Hevej: Never!!

Father: Oh, yes.

Hevej: She's...her?

Moppet: Aye...I mean...excuse me...
Father: Well, I didn't drag them, they, that is, well, I then someone else and you wern't, or were, and I thought...but then I did...

 

[christyb]

Mother: *sneers at Hevej* Yes, I'm "her". What do you think of that? *to father* I thought you'd reverted back to Moppet terror of the seas?

 

[The Count]

*From within the ocean depths...

Aaargh, seems like Christy finally arrived. Good show, she'll put an end to the lot of 'em. Come on, mates... Time to feed the sharks.
*Skeleton crew leaves to feed their pet sharks.

She's a right fierce and fearsome lady o'the seas... She'll teach 'em...

 

[Beauregard]

*to Mother*

Father: I had...well, yes, I have....
Moppet: Righ'o lads, let's put the woman downbelow, we ned a good cook and bottle'washer!
Father: *gulp* Did I just say that?

Hevej: Aye. And a good plan it be. Are you going to carry it out Moppet, old man?

Father: As a businessman I know the man who makes the order needen't be he who carries it out, I think. Anyone else offering?
Moppet: Get on with it ya swabs.
Father: *covers mouth*

 

[christyb]

Mother: Oh you just didn't. I swab decks for no one. Now if you'll excuse me I'm taking you *mockingly* "Moppet" and the kids home!

 

[Beauregard]

Moppet: Indeed....however, dear, for once I think mebbe I should be the judge of what excactly I do. So there. *folds arms*

Hevej: Right behind ya, Moppet. Literally...she looks armed...

Moppet: *scowls* *Pop!*
Father: And naturally....my judgement of exactly what to do just now, is to go right home with you, dear. That was of coruse, entirely my decision.

Hevej: WHAT!!!!

 

[christyb]

Mother: I should just gully you both and be rid of ya. Don't worry it'll be painless and I won't let the kids watch. You deserve it Moppet for going back on your promise.

 

[Beauregard]

Father: Well...promises...that is, I promised. Moppet did not.
Moppet: Aye!
Father: Get lost!

 

[christyb]

Mother: No, dear, Moppet promised. Remember when you asked me to marry you? I'm sorry but Moppet is the one who popped the question. Or do I need to remind you.

Hevej: You asked her to marry you??

Mother: Stay out of this!
