Captain Haddock to slave-trader:
Sheer off, filibuster!… Out of my sight, you gallows bird!… Baboon!… Carpet-seller!… Paranoiac!… Pockmark!… Cannibal!…
[slave-trader departs]
Duck-billed platypus!… Jellied-eel!… Bashi-bazouk!… Anthropophagus!… Cercopithecus!… Psychopath!… Er…
Tintin:
No good, Captain. He’s too far away now…
Haddock:
That’s what you think! He hasn’t heard the last of me! [dashes off]
Tintin:
Where now?
Haddock:
On to the bridge. [seizes megaphone] PIRATE! ECTOPLASM! COELACANTH! VULTURE! BODY-SNATCHER! OSTROGOTH! VANDAL!
