By the Great Horn Spoon!

Jack’s worries about Good Luck the pig come to a head one day, when he sees the cook leave the galley with a meat cleaver in his hand. He hides the pig in his cabin, but unfortunately wakes up Dr. Buckbee, who confusedly blows the loud horn he uses to guard his treasure map. In a panic, Jack tries to force the pig through a porthole, but it gets stuck, with its hindquarters hanging into the room. Praiseworthy is the first to arrive on the scene, and quickly lends a hand, blocking the pig from view with his umbrella, until it can be hidden again.

The next morning, the Lady Wilma arrives at the port of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Touched by the sight of hills, trees, and houses, Jack again yearns for his relatives back in Boston. Detecting this, Praiseworthy offers him the chance to change his mind, to return alone to Boston by land. He adds that rounding Cape Horn will be dangerous, and that no one would blame him were he to go back. Jack is shocked and hurt, assuming that the butler might want to part with him. However, Praiseworthy says he was just testing Jack’s courage and commitment, and the boy tears up.
