"It's bad luck to have a woman on board." "Yes. Captain. That's why I brought my peg." "Your what? "My peg. So I'm not really a woman. I'm a man who keeps his peg in a bag, instead of in his trousers." "Oh. Your... peg." "Yes. It's in here. I'd offer to show it to you, but I wouldn't want you to get the wrong idea." "I'm not sure there are any right ideas about this. So you just keep it in there?" "During the day." "And at night? Or shouldn't I ask?" "It doubles as a bludgeon." "Ah. Right-o."
