“Time for ye to walk the plank!” said the captain, preparing the prisoners for their infeasible death. The prisoners were disdain with the remarks of the captain, afraid of what lies ahead. Their utter disinclination made them wish they had acted with prudence before committing their crimes. Meanwhile, while the prisoners were saying their last goodbyes, the crew was having a meeting. ¨Why is it that we force these prisoners have to walk thy plank?¨ asked the 2nd mate. ¨Well, I´ve never really thought of that¨ said the captain. The captain thought long and hard about this question. He begun to think why pirates do this, and have done this for so long. He supposed that it was the humiliation factor that played a huge roll. A whole crew of people laughing and yelling at you as you walk off the edge of the boat. It also seems more scary, given that you have to walk yourself off the ship, usually with someone following behind you with a sword. As the captain thought long and hard about this, he realized that the rest of the crew already threw the prisoners off the ship. ¨Hey, why didn't you have them walk the plank!? Why did you just throw them off?¨ yelled the captain. ¨Because you just told us to captain!¨ said the second mate. ¨When did I say that?¨ said the captain. The captain then realized he was thinking out loud the whole time.
