Tintin:
We have to get to Bagghar ahead of Sakharine.

Captain Haddock:
I know. I know! Why?

Tintin:
[referring to Sheik Omar Ben Salaad] Because he has the 3rd model ship.

Captain Haddock:
How do you know?

Tintin:
[pulls out brochure] The Sheik collects old ships. [points to picture of the Unicorn] And this is the prize of his collection.

Captain Haddock:
Blistering blue barnacles, that is the Unicorn!

Tintin:
Captain, do you see the distortion around the model?

Captain Haddock:
Uh-huh. Aye.

Tintin:
It means that Ben Salaad exhibits it in a bullet-proof glass case in his palace.

Captain Haddock:
And Sakharine's going there to steal it.

Tintin:
Yes, he has a secret weapon: the Milanese Nightingale. But that won't be enough to solve the mystery, and that is why Sakharine needs you. That's why he made you his prisoner. There is something he needs you to remember.

Captain Haddock:
I don't follow you.

Tintin:
[sighs] I read it in a book... [sits back down] ...that only a true Haddock can discover the secret of the Unicorn. [pause]

Captain Haddock:
I don't remember anything about anything.

Tintin:
But you must know about your ancestors. Sir Francis. It's your family legacy.

Captain Haddock:
My memory's not what it used to be.

Tintin:
Well, what did it used to be?

Captain Haddock:
I've forgotten.

Tintin:
Captain, can you get us to Bagghar?

Captain Haddock:
What sort of a stupid question is that? [gets up] Give me those oars! I'll show you some real seamanship, laddie! I'll not be doubted by some pipsqueak tuft of ginger and his irritating dog. I am master and commander of the seas! I know these waters better than the warts on my mother's face. [notices Tintin and Snowy unconscious] Look at the pair of them, fast asleep. Typical landlubbers, eh? No stamina these days. Nevermind. I'll get you there, Tintin.
