Recap:
"Hey, you said you could cook right?"
"Yes?"
------------------
Mattie comes towards them quickly and speaks to them with a panicked voice.
"Please hurry, before the captain does. It's his turn!"
Her face turned green and ran up deck to hurl over the rails.
"Hope Mattie's okay....and Maxie."
"Friends of yours.....Hey! We've never introduced our selves; my name is Caz. You are, my lovely?"
"Claire."
"Nice to officially meet you, Miss Claire."
"To you as well, Sir Caz."
"Well, to the kitchen!"
"Yes, we will be their savior and they'll have to let us stay!"
"Great Idea!"
-----------------
They went on their marry way. In the kitchen, Claire put her hair in a pony tail. She and Caz worked for an hour.
"Donde es- Alli!?"
A burly man bursts into the kitchen, impatient. The captain of the ship has been working on his bilingual studies with no progress.
"Andele Tu Papels! Andele!"
"...That was bad, you have no idea what you are saying, do you?", said Caz.
"I'm trying, that counts doesn't it?", the man cries out like a child.
Caz stares at the scorned man with an unimpressed expression.
"I guess..."
"Just go already!"
Claire sweats with a nervous smile.
----------------
The dinning hall is full with a few exceptions and the captain sitting at the end of the table. Claire can see Mattie shivering with relief as tears begin to dry.
Claire sweats a bit more, "She must have been terrified....how bad is the captains cooking???", Claire thought to herself.
Mattie spots Claire before calling out to her.
"T-Thank you! I thought I was going to die...."
Captain cries at the same time of her exclamation to defend himself.
"S-Shut up! I can cook!"
No one says anything and it got quiet. The captain continues to wait for someone to back him up. No one did and it got sad to look at him. So no one did.
"Don't look a way from me! Come on, Samuel, you've had my cooking! Tell them."
A thin man with a light blond beard and clear blue eyes and a bald head, hair on the sides, keeps his head down and harshly turns his head a way.
"Samuel? Samuel? Samuel....please? Come on man....Please...."
Nothing.
"Sam.....uel....."
Awkward silence.
