In this short scene, we learn that the captain of the galley is on his way back to the ship. The galley's steward, who has been watching the captain's progress from a distance, catches up with the captain and tells him that it's time for him to go. The captain tells the steward that he's going to throw the galley overboard if the steward doesn't leave the room. The steward tells the captain that if the captain is too nervous to leave, he'll be caught and punished.
