They're my bananas and you're grabbing your bananas and they're fighting and they're yelling and they're all grabbing and they're grabbing them.
And then they push the boat back.
And he talks to them a little bit.
And again, it's not a perfect translation.

What do you want?
Who's your leader?
He's trying to establish these things.
And they're saying things and they all sort of talk at the same time, like a flock of birds.
It wasn't like one man speaks.
And there was no women.
The women were nowhere to be seen.
And actually, at one point, as we were preparing, I think it was while we were preparing the second canoe of bananas, there was a moment of absolute panic.
And it happened when there was a noise behind us, and you just hear a bunch of shotguns swing behind us.
