The Sea Squawk

A hapless Scottish émigré, mid-passage on the opulent S.S. Cognac, finds his transatlantic journey violently derailed when he is unwittingly conscripted into a high-stakes jewel heist. Pursued by a vigilant detective and his sharp-eyed assistant, Flora Danube, the infamous Blackie Dawson, alongside his audacious accomplice Pearl Blackstone, forcibly conceals a stolen ruby within the young Scot. Under dire threats, the immigrant is coerced into silence, a predicament that spirals into farcical chaos. Desperate, he adopts an elaborate, albeit ultimately transparent, feminine disguise, escalating the absurdity and drawing unwanted scrutiny. As his true identity is exposed, he is plunged into a perilous, acrobatic escape, clinging to life amidst the ship's precarious heights, all while the fate of the jewel, and perhaps a nascent romance, hangs precariously in the balance.
