A starving artist gets a job as an entertainer on a cruise ship, where going to perform as a magician. The ship only goes out on three day cruises, so the guy has to learn only a single three-day act since he gets a new audiance every trip out. It turns out that the ship's captain has a pet parrot that he keeps in the ship's showroom. After a few cruises the parrot is really starting to get on the guy's nerves. "Squawk! It's under the table. Squawk! It's in his pocket. Squawk! It's up his sleeve." The magician has had about all he can stand of the bird ruining his act when the ship hits an iceberg and sinks to the bottom of the ocean. Daylight comes only to find the magician floating in the middle of nowhere holding tightly to a piece of wood debris to keep him afloat. A little while later the parrot lands on a piece of floating wood a couple of feet away. The guy can't think of anything except for taking this bird and tearing it to shreds, but he doesn't dare let go of the debris lest he drown. For hours and hours they sit and stare angrily at each other. Finally, as the sun starts to set, the parrot speaks up: "Squawk! Okay, I give up. Where'd you hide the ship?"
