A magician worked exclusively on a cruise ship. He used a talking parrot as part of his act. Toward the end of the 2 week cruise, he was performing his act and made a quarter disappear. The parrot said, "Aurghhh, it's up his sleeve, it's up his sleeve." The magicians next trick involved making a playing card disappear, and once again the parrot chimed in, "Aurghhh, it's in his boot, it's in his boot."

The magician, who is now thoroughly frustrated with his parrot, pulls out a gun and shoots at the parrot. The parrot ducked and the shot missed him, but instead hit a propane tank, blowing up the entire ship, sinking it.

The only survivors were the parrot and the magician. As they floated in the life raft waiting to be rescued, the parrot again spoke up, "I give up, where's the ship, where's the ship?"
