The family ain't 'bout bein' pirates. Ain't been for a long time. Y' ain't the only one that's had t' give up hangin' ont' titles an' shit from the past.

But if y' say y' wanna join the family, then y' gotta recognize Marco's the head a it. Wanna join the family, then we're gonna expect loyalty outta y'. Y'd get it all back, course, even if at first 's like tryna swallow an urchin for some folk. But if me an' Grell can find a way t' make it work, anyone can.

So what I want is for y' t' recognize the shit y' jus' said. Y' can't join up but not count. There ain't no half way. Think it through a bit more an' figure out what 'zactly it is yer really wantin' t' ask, here. Y' give a shit 'bout the family? Or y' just tellin' us y' wanna marry Ace?
