The guys take a job on a cruise ship, where they run into Boris and Madam, who kiddnap Mike, after he gets caught up in the two's scheme.
Ship's Ahoy
The Monkees were sitting around the pad one day playing the waiting game, the object of the game was that they wait for the phone to ring and see if anyone was going to call them up for a gig.
"I hate the waiting game, can't we play checkers?"Peter asked.
"Man, we've been waiting all morning, and nobody's called," said Micky.
"Come on guys, someone's bound to call," said Mike.
"Mike, I know we've been to several auditions yesterday, you just can't expect the call to come pouring in right way," said Davy.
Just then the phone rang.
"You were saying?"Micky said.
"You don't know, it could be a telemaketer," said Davy.
"Or a wrong number," said Peter.
"Cool it guys," said Mike, picking up the phone.
He talked on the phone for quite some time, while his bandmates waited in anticapation.
A few minutes later, Mike hung up the phone, and looked up at the other guys with a smile.
"We got a gig," he said.
"How long?" Davy asked.
"10 days," said Mike.
"How much?" Micky asked.
"100 dollars for the ten days," said Mike.
"Where is it?"Peter asked.
"Sunset on the sea," said Mike.
Just then, his face turned pale.
"What's the matter?"Davy asked.
"I just remember, I get seasickness," said Mike.
"Maybe we should cancel," said Micky.
"No, we need the money."
"Are you sure?"Peter asked.
"Yeah, don't worry, I'll be fine."
So, the guys began to get ready for their trip, and Mike even bought some seasick pads to help him.
Finally, the day came when the ship leaves the dock.
The Monkees took a taxi to the dock, because they didn't have the money to park the car there.
"I hope we got everything," said Peter.
"Luggage?" said Davy.
"Check," said Micky.
"Instruments?"
"Check."
"I also got my seasick pads and My lucky guitar pick," said Mike.
When the Monkees got to the dock, they found themselves standing in front of the ship they were going to perform on.
Micky whistled and said,"Gosh-a-ronney, what a boat."
"I saw a boat like that once, only smaller," said Peter.
"Where was that?"Davy asked.
"At the toy store."
Little did the guys know, someone else was about to take the same ship ride as them.
For standing a few feet away, was a couple in their 30's who looked quite familar.
The man was large sized and was wearing a bright Hawaiin shirt, while the woman was average sized and wearing a fur coat.
"Madam, you got the microfilm?"asked the man.
"Yes, Boris, said the woman, taking a small black object out of her purse,And soon, we will make the trade, and we'll be on our way to Jamacia."
"But you said we were going to Brazil," said Boris.
"Fine, we'll go to Brazil," said Madam.
"Jamacia is nice."
More to come...
