A magician was working on a cruise ship in the Caribbean.

Since the audience changed every week, he felt no guilt in performing the same tricks over and over again.

However, there was one problem—the ship’s captain had a parrot that watched every single show.

Being an incredibly smart bird, the parrot quickly figured out how all the tricks worked.

During every performance, the parrot would ruin the magician’s act by shouting:

"It’s in his sleeve!"
"The rabbit is in his hat!"
"The lady is in the trapdoor under the stage!"

The magician was furious but couldn’t do anything—after all, it was the captain’s parrot.

Then one fateful night, the ship hit an iceberg and sank.

The magician and the parrot managed to survive, floating together on a small piece of debris.

For days, they just stared at each other in silence.

Finally, on the fourth day, the parrot sighed and said:

"Alright, I give up… WHERE’S THE SHIP?"
