Hogback agrees, "YES, OF COURSE!!!" Chopper beams, "AND THEN COULD YOU... SHOW ME YOUR LAB!?" Hogback's entire manner changes. He leans in with a dark glare and answers, "NEVER PEEK INTO MY LAB..." Chopper recoils: "!!?" The mood is broken when Cindry serves dessert, saying, "Here is the pudding." Hogback pleads, "HEY, CINDRY-CHAN, YOU COULD AT LEAST SERVE THE PUDDING ON A DISH!! CAN YOU GRANT ME THAT ONE WISH!?" Cindry repeats, "It would be nice if there weren't dishes in this world..." and Hogback laughs off the mess: "NO NEED TO BE WORRIED WHAT-SOEVER, SINCE THIS TABLE CLOTH WAS CLEANED TO DEATH FOR AN OCCASION LIKE THIS!" Page 9: At the table, Usopp tries to eat while complaining, "CAN'T YOU USE A SPOON!?" Hogback says, "WELL, ITADAKIMASU!" and Cindry tells the guests, "THE BATH IS READY. YOU SHOULD ENTER SINCE YOU'RE DIRTY." Chopper happily says, "OH! IT'S SWEET AND DELICIOUS!!" Then Hogback asks about Brook: "BY THE WAY, OLD MAN... THAT'S ALL RIGHT, BUT... DIDN'T A WEIRD SKELETON COME IN JUST BEFORE US?" He describes him as "A SKINNY ONE... WITH AN AFRO... AND STRANGELY CHEERFUL..." Hogback reacts with alarm: "SKELETON? WELL, IT'S STRANGE ENOUGH THAT A SKELETON CAN TALK AND WALK, BUT... DO YOU KNOW SOMETHING...?" Then he insists, "N... NO. NOTHING AT ALL. COULD IT BE...? NO... IT'S NOT POSSIBLE...!!"
