It's just like home.

I didn't think I'd miss it like this. If you spend ten years building sandcastles and cracking coconuts, it gets kind of boring.

Now I'm here, and it's fun. But still exactly the same.

I don't want to stay. I know some of you do, but nothing ever changes in a place like this. And it's not home, not without the people who make home special.

I guess this place has reminded me that even if I could go back, there's only sandcastles and coconuts waiting there for me.

And if the Elegante is the only way forward then, no matter how bad it gets, I'll take it.

Ain't evah gonna know dat fuh sure till some mon actually gets rid of him.

I be held in a place dat I don't wanna be 'gainst my will wid no way to leave. Dat don't sound like freedom to me. It be soundin' like a prison.

Just because joo be shuttin' joor eyes to it don't mean it ain't be true.

I'm not shutting my eyes! I know the Captain isn't a good man. He's mad and he should be stopped.

But I know that this - all of this - isn't my world. I know that to travel to a different world, I need magic or a rocket ship. Getting rid of the Captain won't give me those things. I'd still be in a place I didn't want to be with no way to leave.

I hope someone finds another way to travel between worlds. But until they do, I'll make the most out of what's here.

Maybe it wouldn't send us back, but if he be gone den at least I wouldn't be toy to a fuckin' mad mon. Don't know 'bout joo but dat be soundin' like a step in da right direction to me.

Captain Redd's not the only madman on board. But I guess you could probably fight the rest of them.
