Transcript

All aboard for the transcribed premier production, the crews of the Paul Parrot, that thrilling story of whaling days and buried treasure. The Trim Ship Paul Parrot has landed finally at the Secret Island of Galltho, whereas Regrange, the ship's owner, along with Captain Dalton and our young friends Johnny Robbins and Sue Grange, expect to find the valuable mineral deposit indicated on the map, originally drawn by Johnny's father and the Lady Ziki you'll kill.

While the party is ashore endeavoring to locate the mineral deposit, the two troublemakers out test the and red Mohouli, who have been imprisoned in the hold of the ship, managed to escape and overpower First Mate George Wainwright, who remained aboard to guard them.

Then in a raging argument which develops between the two plotters, out test the is thrown overboard in a sea of man-eating sharks, and red is left alone. Red takes one of the whaleboats and rolls some distance out to sea, around to the far side of the island, so as not to be seen by the shore party.

He finally beaches his boat in a little inland. And then... Well, I ain't got out testy to worry about no more. Now I'm on my own. I'll be a millionaire, so help me. And now that I've got this boat beached, better haur a shore and hydrate someplace.
