STARBUCK: 'Thank ye, Captain Ahab, for inviting me to dinner in your cabin tonight."
AHAB: "Eat up, pilgrim, and tell me what's on ye mind."
STARBUCK: "No disrespect, Captain, but it seems an evil wind has filled the sails of your mind."
AHAB: "Go on, unload all your cargo."
STARBUCK: "Tis a dangerous course you've set us on, going after the white whale, far from our usual waters."
AHAB: "Through?"
STARBUCK: "Thou art possessed and will kill us all going after a beast what only did what beasts do!"
AHAB: "Aye, that's no ordinary beast thee speak of...I have looked it in the eye and seen the Devil himself!"
STARBUCK: "I would give an arm and a leg if...oh, sorry...I wish you would listen to me and save yourself and us from disaster!"
AHAB: "And what makes thee so sure I shall not prevail?"
STARBUCK: "I read the book and saw the movie...believe me, it doesn't go well for thee and the Peapod. Turn back!"
AHAB: "That's Pequod, but thanks for talking with me. What you say makes complete sense. Give the order to turn back."
STARBUCK: "Aye aye, Captain!"
AHAB: "One other thing, Starbuck..."
STARBUCK: "Yes Captain Ahab?"
AHAB: 'Who played me in the movie?"
