Not only would Overboard not make a dog strip this good, it would also use ten times as many words. Speaking of which...


So yeah, more proof that the animals in Overboard talk by telepathy, since Ray (who is a dog, and is able to talk to the human pirates just fine) is able to hear Louie, despite the human pirates not being able to. And as I said before, this also holds true for the mice and Scratch, and I believe the rabbits that raid that one pirate's vegetable garden as well.

I'll be honest I haven't seen the octopus enough to know much about it. I want to say it's talked through telepathy at least once but that's not even really a vague memory, just a thing that I may be imagining.

But the bearded pirate (Nate) has directly threatened the sharks before when they were around Louie, so him threatening an octopus for doing the same even if he can't hear it talk isn't surprising.

A few selections from the 1739 edition Joe Miller jokebook, just to show you that the classics never die. No matter how hard we try to kill them.

  • A melting Sermon being preached in a Country Church, all fell weeping but one Man, who being asked why he did not weep with the rest? O! said he, I belong to another Parish.
  • A Gentlewoman growing big with Child, who had two Gallants, one of them with a wooden Leg, the Question was put, which of the two should father the Child. He who had the wooden Leg offer'd to decide it thus. If the Child, said he, comes into the World with a wooden Leg, I will father it, if not, it must be yours.
  • A Gentleman happening to turn up against an House to make Water, did not see two young Ladies looking out of a Window close by him, 'till he heard them giggling, then looking towards them, he asked, what made them so merry? O! Lord, Sir, said one of them, a very little Thing will make us laugh.
  • A Countryman passing along the Strand saw a Coach overturn'd, and asking what the Matter was? He was told, that three or four Members of Parliament were overturned in that Coach; Oh, says he, there let them lie, my Father always advis'd me not to meddle with State Affairs.
  • A Gentleman said of a young Wench, who constantly ply'd about the Temple, that if she had as much Law in her Head, as she had had in her Tail, she would be one of the ablest Counsel in England.

Such jocularity. Tears of amusement stain my pinafore.

This is going to go one of two ways:

1. Wilbur lives...somehow...and Estelle feels like she has to take care of him so she agrees to marry him.
2. Wilbur doesn't live, and for reasons unknown Estelle feels a sense of obligation because they were fighting before he took a drunken leap.
