Ship's Officer: Oh, you mean Indians with feathers?

Voyda: Yes! With noses!

Ship's Officer: Like in the American five cent?

Voyda: Yes! Yes! Have you got them onboard? Yes!

Ship's Officer: No!

Voyda: Indians? Indians? Are you the Wabash Indians Band?

Huckleberry Haines: Are you Voyda?

Voyda: I am Alexander Petrovitch Moscovitch Voyda.

Huckleberry Haines: Let's pick it up from there. We're the boys you hired to play at your cafe: The Wabash Indianians.

Voyda: Indianians? Is this the same as Indians?

Huckleberry Haines: Um, well, yes, in a sense, you see we don't, we don't wear our feathers in warm weather. Do we boys? Well, when do we start, Mr. Voyda?

Voyda: You don't start! I cable for Indians and I want Indians! No pay American faces when they make me a fool of myself.
