You Gotta Be Kidding! Maurice, who has all the money and mundane accomplishments there are to achieve, is about to embark on a solo sailing voyage around the globe. This is a risky voyage, but he is ready to take on the windy seas and high waters. Before departing, he gets his affairs in order and draws out a lengthy will. He tells his best friend, Sammy, “If I’m not back in two years, I want you to have the contents of my treasured safe. Here is the key.” Sammy solemnly takes the key and bows.
