Richard and Anne Brewster, a newly wedded couple, are racing to get aboard the Mauritania, an ocean liner bound from New York to Europe. They arrive at the pier, and hurry through customs, Anne says "A honeymoon in Europe! Three whole months with nothing to worry about". Ricky says "That's right, dear. And you've been my wife for .... let's see ... practically five hours now". Anne says "I believe the correct phrase is "It was so sudden, Mr. Brewster". They laugh and Ricky says "Yes, it was so sudden that we have to travel on our own passports instead of a husband and wife one". Anne asks "Oh, what about our tickets, Ricky. Do we give them to the ship's officer standing at the top of the gangplank?" Ricky says "No, the cabin steward will come and collect them later, when we're underway". Anne says "And the money, Ricky?" He says "Hmm, That is a lot of money,10,000 dollars in cash. Maybe I better turn it in to the purser's office for safekeeping". Anne says "Yes, maybe you had". They get aboard and go to find their cabin. Ricky says "Here it is, B Deck and cabin number ... Good Lord, it's B-13. You're not superstitious are you?" Anne says "No, dear, not about things like that. Open the door". They go in and find their luggage has already been placed there. Soon, the ship is about to get underway. Anne says "I'd like to see the Statue of Liberty and the skyline as we go past". Ricky says "Why not go see it? I've got to deposit this money in the purser's office, then I'll join you as soon as I can". Anne is soon standing at the rail as the ship gets under way. She says out loud "All these happy and excited people crowding up to the rail. Nothing to worry about except ..." A man standing nearby says "Except what?" Anne is startled at first, but then says "I'm sorry, I haven't been very well". The man says "I know, that's why I spoke to you. I'm Dr. Henrik, the ship's doctor". Anne introduces herself, and says "This is a beautiful ship, and they've given us a lovely cabin on the B Deck, B-13". Dr. Henrik stops and says "Mrs. Brewster, there is no such cabin aboard this ship".
