And here's Guybrush, at the Sea of Acheron. ...in front of a rather pathetic looking foot-pedal swan boat.

You know, you'd think after so many years doing this sort of thing, I would be used to the crushing disappointment of it all.

....You'd THINK that.

See, this is why you can't trust politicians. Ever.

Maybe a giant robot!

Ohhhh no, I've had enough giant robots to last me a lifetime. Nobody even LIKED the darned robot.

You were in a giant robot?

Yes. It was a very long, convoluted, and slightly contradictory sequence in my life.

Wow! Tell me!

(Great, this is one of my least favorite piratic tales...)

Well, it all started when I was coming home from my honeymoon with my wife, the lovely Elaine Marley...

Oh boy, here we go. Prepare to hear a long, slightly overembellished rendition of the events of game four.

[Oh but she's going to listen. Through all of it!]

Might this be your craft?

*Oh hay look, Kyouka is making off with the boat*

Hey HEY OUKA! We can have a romantic date in this thing! How about it?

I choose to plead the fifth.

Whoa hey hey hey hey, what do you think you're doing?! That may be horribly embarrassing with the worst figurehead ever, but it's still mine!

Nyahahaha, so now you're showing more pride in this thing? You should be honored Kyouka-sama is putting it to good use!

What is the fifth, and why would you choose to plead it?

That's... a good question, and yet I choose to take this action.

Pride has nothing to do with it! I'm the one that put the bill through! Besides, until I get the real boat, it's the only thing I've got!

Kyouka-sama has seen people who've built totally badass images with less!

Well, I can be bad... bad... THAT, too. Just you wait! I'm gonna be the mightiest pirate in my world AND the Netherworld in no time!

To embarrass yourself. Say, by admitting you don't know a common as muck idiom.

Nyahahahahaha! *she stops jacking the ship and has actually returned it.

Kyouka-sama will be impressed if you made it this far! I'll be waiting to see what you can do, especially against Baal!

Yeah! Just you -- wait, what?

Glad you agree. I'll be taking my consulting fee now.

I'm just going to take it for granted you're joking.

Hm? And what is this joke you speak of?

Wait, you're SERIOUS?!

Ahahahaha! The look on your face! Simply priceless.
