SCENE 1 Oscar acts like a pirate in preparation for a bout of sailing with his pet elephants. Their ship, the S.S. Discontented, floats in the pool and the mast sticks out from the top of the can. David watches as Oscar boards the ship, causing it to sink a little. The vessel only holds three passengers, so only two elephants can board - Blitzen and Schopenhauer, which causes it to sink even more. Fluffy eagerly hops on as well, causing the ship to sink completely. David, watching from outside, gets splashed as the elephants scramble for dry land. Oscar tosses him a drenched towel.

Maria gives Oscar a piece of her mind, chiding him for treating Telly that way after all the ways Telly has been so kind and helpful to Oscar.
