   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorMr. Nsubuga, how does a person spend a day in the sea unnoticed?

4. BN

   Bartholomew NsubugaHank, we celebrate this guest's resilience. Per our guest charter, any time in open water is an unscheduled excursion, and we believe in embracing those.

5. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAn excursion. She was in the water for more than a day, holding a lifebuoy. I'm asking who noticed she was gone.

6. BN

   Bartholomew NsubugaLet me tap the deck map. The buffet is here, and the sea is generally everywhere else.

7. BN

   Bartholomew NsubugaNobody is ever truly missing from a buffet.

8. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNobody noticed.

9. BN

   Bartholomew NsubugaPer our guest charter, section nine, unscheduled water time is billed at a standard rate, though we would of course waive it for a story this inspiring.

10. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorYou would bill a rescued woman for the water she floated in? Is that what you're telling this audience?

11. BN

    Bartholomew NsubugaWe would bill the water, not the rescue. The rescue is a complimentary wellness moment. Per our guest charter, the towel is eleven dollars.

12. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorI'll ask once more, plainly. After all that, what did the ship notice?

13. BN

    Bartholomew NsubugaWell, the lifebuoy was missing from inventory by morning. We caught that right away.

14. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe lifebuoy. Of course.
