That was Stooge. He was very clumsy, always getting hurt. Why would they want someone like him?

I don't know. I missed half of what happened.

*somewhere far off in the woods, the squawk of an approaching parrot is heard*

*the parrot flies into the area with a flapping of wings, lands on the branch of a nearby tree, and starts staring at Kery and Morse intently*

Tell your captain to return Stooge or I'll come after him.
