The chief broke off the mud and it contained a baked monkey. He then twisted the monkey's head off, gouged out the eyeballs and placed them on a plate and handed them to the new Captain. The Captain was turning a bit green but my friend leaned in towards his ear and told him that he was receiving a high honor by being offered the eyeballs and unless he wanted to anger the chief he had better gag them down. He popped them in his mouth and swallowed them whole.
