Hm. No one seems to be commenting. This makes me sad. -hint hint-

"Sailors!" Norry calls out. "Go back to swabbing the Poop Deck..and,

uh, pooing the swab deck..and, erm, sailoring stuff."

The sailors look at him, look at eachother, and go back to work

whistling. One, either brave, or very stupid, sailor tries to swing across the

deck. He makes a big splash in the water. The crew looks over. Norry,

and Gilette hold up signs. They look around for the third judge to see

Jack flailing his arm about waving to them. He shows them his sign. They

show him theirs. Norry's says "6.3," Gilette's, "7.1," And Jack's,

"9.8."

ON THE BLACK APOLLO

Pintel enters the room Elizabeth's in. He's carrying a bib.

"The captain requested you wear this to dine." He informs.

"Nope." She replies.

"Fine. Then you'll have to eat naked."

Her eyes widen.

"Really, now..." She says as if interested.

His eyes widen.

"No. Just take it. No eating whilst nude." He runs out the door.

She takes the bib, looks at it, and puts it on.

In the captain's cabin, Boobossa and other pirate/aliens stand there at

the table full of food. Elizabeth enters clad in bib. "Yay." Boobossa

notes.

"Dare I ask the state of it's previous owner?" Elizabeth asks.

"Nope."

"K"

Elizabeth sits down, and daintly takes the eating utensils in her

hands. She raises them as if about to eat. She goes in for the food, when

she stops and throws them behind her shoulders and digs in like a pig.

You see Raghetti with, yet another fork in his eye.

"Uh..no need to eat so..daintly. You're not trying to impress

anyone..here.." Boobossa states in disgust. "Try the wine."

She stops right then.

"Straight edge." She informs.

"Oh. Sorry. Have some apple then."

She takes an apple and brings it to her mouth to eat it. She stops.

"Heyyy wait a minute. This apple is POISONED!"

"Yeah, so?" Boobossa replies. "NO! NO I TAKE THAT BACK! I

mean..it's..not..poisoned. EAT IT."

"K"

She takes a bite. She starts twitching and choking. She collapses on

the floor. Boobossa is stunned by this. He looks at her on the floor. She

jumps up.

"Just kidding!"

"Bitch."

"Hey..why aren't you eating?" She asks.

"I would if I could." He takes the undies and flags them in front of

her face. She gags. "I suppose you don't know what these are then, do

ya?"

"They're..underpants..?"

"Well, yes. But not only are they underpants, they're SPECIAL

underpants. They are a peice to the dirty laundry of Isle va la matanza usted

mismo. The laundry pile was cursed. Whoever takes a peice is cursed until

it is put back and washed. One man did, however. He ran away and jumped

a boat to a secret island. He was cursed for the rest of his life."

"What was the curse?"

"Ah, good question. Whoever has the curse placed apon them will turn

into a has-been pop sensation."

Elizabeth gasps.

"Yes. I know." Boobossa states. "The man perished, but the undies

didn't. They grew so powerful to curse the whole island. Whoever goes to the

island is greeted with many annoying faux pop stars. The island where

everyone kills themselves. Isle va la matanza usted mismo."

"Hm."

"My crew and I went there. We saw the undies, and took them. We found

more laundry items along the way and we took them all, too."

"Well, what did you do with the garments?"

"We sold them on ebay."

"Oh."

"Yeah, it racked in a small fortune. Enough to buy our essentials:

rock CDs, punk pand shirts, emo sweaters, et cetera. But when we bought

them and put them on, the garments turned into NSYNC and Backstreet Boys

shirts. The CDs turned into Britney Spears' CDs. It's a HORRID curse!"

"OH MY GOD!!"

"There is a way to remove the curse. To find all the dirty garments,

and wash them together. We have all the garments, save these." He holds

out the undies again.

"If the curse turns you into pop geeks, why aren't you..you know?"

"Ah, I'll show you. Follow me." Boobossa leads her into the kitchen

where the crew is having a chugging contest to see who can down the most

soda. Boobossa walks by one of the heavier men, as the man belches. The

curse for Boobossa kicks in. He turns to face Elizabeth, and in a voice

sounding of that of a black woman he sings what he says.

"The belch gas shows us for what we really are. A bunch of stupid pop

stars. We've been like this for 10 years. I haven't been able to listen

to my favorite music, or wear my favorite band's clothes, or even wear

my emo sweaters!"

"That sux0r."

"Yep."

Jack and Will. They start talking.

"After I accidentally made my mom implode, I came out here searching

for my dad." Will informed.

"Is that so?" Jack asked.

"Yep. Laampabop Cheesehead. Mom called him William in front of the

humans."

Jack continues talking to his toes.

"I'm no stupidface. I know you know my dad. You agreed to help me when

I said his name. Or did you? Oh well I forgot. But, uh, you knew him. I

know it." Will insists.

"Cha I knew him, okay? We had an affair together. It was only once,

then he broke my heart. He told me I was his experiment in his sexuality.

But that's okay. I've gotten over it. I was one of the only ones to

know him as Laampabop. Everyone else knew him as Jockstrap Bop."

"WOAH"

"Tell me about it. That's all I said after that night."

"Ew, stop, please, now."
