1:00This is Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang. You know when people try a new food and suddenly it's like, okay, hold on, I got a new favorite food. That's the reaction a lot of people are having when they first try Kupie Mayo. Yeah, it's the one with the red cap and the little baby on the bottle. You've probably seen it at the grocery store. And this mayo is different. Most mayonnaise uses whole eggs. Kupie only uses egg yolks, which gives it this rich umami flavor. It's smoother, deeper, almost buttery. Once people try it, they start putting it on everything. Egg sandwiches, fries, burgers, chefs use it, restaurants use it, people who really care about flavor use it, put it on just about anything. Then you'll understand Kupie, the original Japanese mayonnaise. Call all hands, beat the quarters. One broad side and word to please Captain Bush. Points are on target, eyes of red! P mitä lapseén! En fun!

3:42A quarantine cattle boat, a cargo ship, groaning with tons of waterlogged rice. This was the first time a presentable craft, smaller she was, had been entrusted to me. Age to barely twenty-one I felt as a vibrant telescope in our Mediterranean fleet must be trained on this. As I sailed our little prized ship, La Moussin, to Gibraltar's harbour. It's too bad, sir. Can't quite understand you. What's too bad, Mr. Winnif? Why, I don't think she's in herself yet, sir. I've been using my glass all the way up the anchorage. Not a sign of the indefatigable. Perhaps she put in a molter after all. Well, anyhow, our crew won't mind a little rest. I know I won't, sir. That's certain. Oh, confunded with Captain Perlu not yet returned, I suppose it's my duty to report to the port Admiral fairly quickly. Well, sir, rather catch up on my sleep. Welcome back aboard, sir. They've already come for the prisoners.

4:43You look a little weary, Mr. Hornblower. I am, when it. Three hours wait after I had reported in, and then three minutes will be admiral. There's warm enough over there today, too. Winter or not. In this dress uniform. I've got some news for you, though. News, sir? Are we going to have sore leaves? Well, tonight, perhaps, but not tomorrow. We'll be too busy. Our move is to be commissioned into the service without delay. Into the British service, sir. That's the idea. Good, good. We never have enough with dispatchers. Then he gave orders for all the proper transfer papers and all that, and I had to wait around for another hour. Spatchers? But surely we're not going out at once. Not before our own captain comes back. I've got our orders here. You are here by the quested and required to take his majesty's slupe, La Mousch, under your command. So soon as the latest dispatches destined for England shall be put in your charge, you are commanded to proceed to Plymouth with the utmost expedition. To Plymouth? Well, that sounds better, do you, eh? Yes, I doubt.

5:44I haven't been home for more than a year. I can understand that. I lost a set foot on English soil three years ago. Thank you, sir. Pardon, Mr. Hornblow. I just remembered. While you were gone, a catch from sword delivered you this letter a half hour ago. It couldn't be the dispatches. Well, how'd they happen? Let me see. There shouldn't be so forgetful, wouldn't it? Part of it. No, we can find it. But rather it were the dispatches, without us to sail at once in this, or... God, listen to this. The excellencies, Major General, Sir Hugh and Lady Dowl Rimpo, request the pleasure of acting lieutenant Horatio Hornblow's company at dinner today, at five o'clock at Government House. My name is Alexander Sir, Lord Philip Alexander. You? Horatio Hornblow, sir, acting lieutenant aboard the end of the f... No, I suppose I should say, commanding the new stoop, La Mouss, my first independent command. Let's see. There are excellencies and most happy

6:45that you could bind them, Mr. Hornblow. Well, thank you. Now, if I may present to you, sir, we'll come this way. Your excellencies, this is Mr. Hornblow, the new captain of La Mouss. Oh, we're pleased to see you, Mr. Hornblow. Thank you, sir. Thank you. And now, Mr. Hornblow, now I present to you the Duchess of Warfdale. Your grace, this is Mr. Hornblow, La Mouss. The Duchess of Warfdale, Mr. Hornblow. Um, you're great. So this is the fellow in question, your excellency. Oh, now, really, Martyr, you're going to interest between infantry now. Young fellow, you look exactly like a gander on the green. I expected it, at any moment. And then, and there, she did an imitation of me, sticking her chin out and dangling her arms, which would brought a roar of laughter from the whole room.

7:45I just stood there in red-faced confusion. Now, don't be hard on the young fellow, you people. Very so awfully young. And if that had to be ashamed of, it would be proud of for that matter. I think it's wonderful, Mr. Hornblow, to be trusted with the ship at your young age. Oh, yes, sir. Here's indeed your grace. Oh, yes, sir. Ah, may I give you my, my dear Duchess? Don't sound, I'm sure. I confess I'm thoroughly misdefined, Lord Philip. What does she mean about interesting hair to me, Prince? As usual, the man must concern a little art, and there, what is it? When you sailed tomorrow with dispatches, Hornblow, you're going to have the honor of bearing her grace with you two in England, but you're not, oh, no, you're not a spirit. But who is she? I mean, she doesn't, we heard my instructions, didn't do.

8:47She's the Duchess who walked down, eh? But, ah, I like my, don't like the sound, as if I, you know, she, why she doesn't talk like a Duchess? No, no, no. I would do it because in his day, she's when you married, I was here, she was at the tavern, she was with us, her friends there. Imagine if you like what I said, as to what I'm actually she doing in reporter. No, she was at Florence when the French marched in. She got to Legor, and brimed the coast that would bring her here. She asked the Hugh to find her passage handring, and I, the Hugh there, I was the admiral, and that's where you come in, Ophela. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. I was up at dawn the next morning to see that my precious ship, my first independent command was in condition to face the sea,

9:48and our enemy's sailing was he. I had exactly four pop-gun, four punders, his arms, and my crew numbered only 11. So I knew our only safety, lay in flight if we ran into trouble. Thoughts noon the dispatchers arrived, then came the Duchess, and I made a company by Sir Hugh and laid it down Rimpo. Welcome aboard your exit. I, I think they were a dread that I can muster, but two bursting spikes in your honor. You'll see Sir Michael, I'm in an uproar, Mr. Hornblur. The Governor of Gibraltar, the ceremonials, you know. Well, well, as a young man, how sweet you are to bother with two extra passengers, Mr. Hornblur. Two, you'll be? Yes, my maid, Mary. Oh, I, well, a great honor, your grace, I, sure. I must have apologize to her grace in advance for her somewhat cramped quarters, your ex-uncle. You see, in so small a sloop, ma'am,

10:50your cabin will be, well, my newt. Oh, Mary, and I can live through it. As soon as the Governor had gone ashore, we brought La Mousse up to her anchor. Enca's the way, sir. Get hell you. I am hell you. I am. La Mousse came round before the wind, and began her course for England. Several hours wore on, and we rounded Cape Marrake, and set a course for Cape Sonsons. That's not as near invisible on the horizon over there. Where, and I'd end it, sir. Yes, coming up, Patrick. Well, that's the price you have to pay for a fair wind and wintertime. The cool lamb breed, the one that's going to be in the wintertime. The cool lamb breed strikes the Atlantic, and the fog is the result. The sicker's still been moaning, I wouldn't wonder.

11:51Yes, sir. Yes, I think I should revise my night orders. We must be sure to keep in clear of Cape Sonsons in the fog. Yes, sir. I'll set a course to you west instead of west Benorth.

You know when people try on new food and suddenly it's like, wait. That's the reaction. A lot of people are having when they first try QB Mayo. It's the one with the red cap and the little baby on the bottle. You've probably seen it in the grocery store before. And if you've ever just walked past it, some people would say that's a huge mistake. Because this mayo is different. Most mayonnaise uses whole eggs. QB only uses egg yolks, which gives it this rich umami flavor.

13:53It's smoother, deeper, and almost buttery. Once people try it, they start putting it on everything. Eggs sandwiches, fries, burgers, some fans even swear by dipping pizza crust in it. And once you notice it, you start seeing it everywhere. Chefs use it, restaurants use it, people who really care about flavor use it. Never try it, grab the bottle with the red cap next time you're out of the store. Put it on just about anything, then you'll understand. QB, the original Japanese mayonnaise. Is that you, sir? I can't see for the fuck. What's wrong with it? Don't speak too loud, sir. Simply listen. I don't hear anything. Except to see it are bars and are blocked, clattering, and... Wait. Wait. Wait, wait, wait, listen. Do I? Yes, do I hear the seed breaking under someone else's bars? Is that it? There's a ship close alongside it, a fox that I'm almost positive. What kind of ship? It's got me idea.

14:54I'll try something low for you, sir. I heard an order given in Spanish. A ship is called like the evening news. This ship is included in the bö. Unly way. I haven't met it. We have listened to all those bells. We're in the middle of any middle of the whole fleet. They've shipped it to us. Seems the dons are out in force. A might sense of course of course it's making to the midst of them and then I... Oh, I don't need help in my first course. It's too late for that now. Listen, Nonser, what's going on now? It's positive, Jan. Where we're in arms legs of each other and they don't know it.

15:59They're setting more sail now that dawn is coming. Spaniards always snuck down at night. Don't set that to gallant till they break. They make enough noise about it. They're on a different course from us and we'll soon be beyond them through them, I'll visit. Well, we can hope so, yes. But... Well, it's hard they like it. Wind it was right. It was uncanny. As soon as we wind it, if we were crossing their course we'd have passed some ship that we close where we have lived. I think that what is me is how long will this fog hold? The light's growing. Can't be altered course. Wait, look for it there. It's a clear patch of sea. We're almost into it. Sir, I can see the sea but the sea is sped. It stands still, Jan. Tell us, men, for it stands still too. No panic, no running. We draw attention to our souls with done. Oh, thank heaven, at least our men understand.

16:59There's no more of that battle on deck. You must be happy if we had every much of right to be here as any of them. I taught as another bank of mist, abouting straight through into it. Oh, thank the Lord. Yes, hands were stripped of them. They had on the port back. They told us. Oh, oh, it's just a dune. Look, don't you think your grace is better go below? No, please. I did go below before when you ordered me so sharply but I had to know what was happening. So I came up again and stood way after you's be out of your way. Well, I'm sorry, now I've got no time for the conversation now. Good lord, I forgot the dispatches. What, sir? The dispatches, the dispatches. Yeah, you take over the quarter deck when you're done. I've got to go rundown to my cabin. Find them, sir. Yes, I did indeed. Now, hand me that beling tonight. I want a bit of line. When these go overboard, they've got to sink. Please, please, the towelower, do tell me what you're doing. Thanks for sinking our dispatches, your grace, through envelopes of love. But then they'll be lost for good.

17:59I have no idea what they can do, but I don't want the Spaniards to read them. I could've got it for you. Indeed, I could've told them. No, no, they didn't search your back. It's not too far to put them in my baggy tub. Put them next to me, it's a skin that's what I'll do. They won't search me in any case. Remember, after all I am a Dutchess and the Spanish are nothing if not gentlemen. Well, my... Don't stand a sparing young man. If they shoot captureers, why don't they want, but if they should, they'll never keep me prisoner. They'll send me back to Lisbon or put me aboard a British ship as soon as ever they can. So I could deliver your dispatches, better late than never. Oh, possibly, it's an idea. I've got them like my life I swear I will. I'll tell no one I have until I hand them to a king's officer in England. Fargh's filling, sir. Quick, give them here. Hand me a yard of that rope. You come. Turn your back, now you two young men. I'll have them stored in no time. The sun's coming out, sir. Full this time, I'm afraid. We're going to lose that fog for good, dissolving fast at port. Look, there's a Spanish flag. Yes. I'm an ships' father. I see a few four, really.

19:01At least a dozen men seem to have surrounded. Go, ahemsman, starboard, two points. Starboard, two points, it is there. What's that? That's Camman's shot, your case. We've seen as final if what we are. Those aren't simply warning shots. We could beat them off once, at least. No, no, blame that order on the guns. Look over there. 20 guns, blame others. Deporting 50 more to starboard. And we're the size of a pleasure yard. No, don't fire. But, sir, no point in dying used to stay with you. We have women aboard, remember. They could sink us in ten seconds. Yes, the frigates putting two boats into the water to port it. Yes, your grace, the better luck to your baggage. You'll be leaving as soon for, well, other quarters with the dons. I hope more comfortable. Your first ship. I wish I could tell you how sorry I am. If I don't, they held my court. You see, I don't, don't ever blame yourself. Promise you won't, Mr. Hornblower. Come over here at a moment. There's something I'm afraid of you in private. Yes, it is.

20:01Now, stop your gracing me. I'm no Dutchess. What do you mean? No time to tell you at all now. Those Spanish boats are almost here. I'm Kitty Cobbum. Have you heard of me? Kitty Cobbum, well, I may have done man somehow, somewhere, I think. Never mind. You're too young for the name to mean much anyhow. But five years ago, I was playing a true land sitter and six children himself said he'd never had a better lidial language. I'm anxious, then. Oh, that's it, yeah, yes, Kitty Cobbum. Sir, the dons boats are hooking on. Yes, yes, come with me, please, Mr. Millett. Do you speak Spanish, sir? Perhaps three words. Vengo bordo para aprenderles, señor El Signete. Señor El Signete, Spanish. We have ladies aboard. Ladies, all proper considerations must be asked for. Señor La Duqueza, the water. La Duqueza? Yes, yes, yes.

21:01Ah, la Duqueza. Señor El Signete, she shall be very great, respected. No, no, no. No, no, no. No, no, no. Captivity is the best, a dreadful thing. A few weeks at Cadiz, then I was transferred to the Spanish-nabel prison at Faral. An empty sail- loft, where I lived with other captive officers. Four months of this. Then one day, I was escorted to the office of the commandant, who had as aid a renegade adishman named O'Brien. You've been promoted, I'd have been promoted. Well, promoted, here's the letter. These Spanish authorities are informed that on account of his military service, the actin commissioned of Mr. Horacio Home Lower, midshipman and actin lieutenant

22:01has been confirmed. And here's a letter for you, lieutenant. Must have come in the same dispatch. A letter? Looks like it's been readjusted over Spain. There. And then we all, you could read it on the card or outside. Oh, thank you, Mr. Braff. A letter. My first letter since my capture. What's it? Darling Boyd. One S would start a letter to me calling him with Darling Boyd. I hope it will make you happy. It will learn that what you gave me has reached a destination. They told me at the admiralty when I delivered it, that they were very pleased with what you'd done. And just imagine, one of those admiral's, he's an old deer, he's a shareholder, true relay, whoever would have thought of such a thing. And he smiled at me.

23:03And I smiled at him. I didn't know he was a shareholder then. And I owned his smile, daughter, the kindness of my heart. That's a big heart, kitty-cobo-missed.
