Scuttling around in the dark interior of the bus, Geniede worriedly checked his precious supply of homemade jelly. He lifted the last jar from his locker, then exclaimed in horror "Wha......?" He stared with unbelieving eyes at the empty container, and began to flush with anger.

His feet stuck to the floor and when he looked down, he noticed the smear of jelly, odd looking footprints, and what the hell are those feathers doing there?

"Hmmm....what have we here?"

He realized now that Krik wasn't the culprit, since he was in the the water, and everyone else was up on deck trying to save him.

Examining one of the feathers on the floor, it occured to Geniede that the captain had a pet parrot, but "Impossible!" he thought. However, he thought that it might be a good idea to confront the captain and try to clear up this mystery.

So up to the wheel house he went, with the evidence in hand.
