... and they are having the absolute time of their life. The fish, the coral- it's all just wonderful. But then, out of nowhere, they hear a great rumbling, look behind them, and see a cruise ship headed straight for them!
They separate, one to each side of the massive ship. When the ship passes, the husband looks around, but the wife is nowhere to be seen. He looks, swimming for hours, almost exhausting his tank, but he can't find her.
Six months later, he's mostly made his peace with what happened. He is living day by day, simply moving along and running through the motions, when he gets a knock on his door. He opens it up to see two police officers.
"Are you Mr. Smith?" one of them asks.
"Yes, what is this about, officer?"
"Mr. Smith, we believe we've found your wife." Said the second officer.
The man is flabbergasted. The officers take him in and sit him down, knowing that he must be going through some understandably intense emotions.
"Mr. Smith, we'll take this slow. We have good news, bad news, and great news. Which would you like first?"
A moment passes.
"I'll take the bad news please. I've been waiting six months for it."
The second officer speaks in a soft voice.
"Sir, we found your wife's body washed up by the pier. She's passed."
Struggling through his tears, the man asks, "Then what is the good news?"
"When we pulled her body out of the water, about twenty 10-pound lobsters were holding on to her. Normally those are very expensive, and they're amazingly delicious. Quite the delicacy!" said the first officer.
The man is confused.
"If that is the good news, what is the great news?"
"We're pulling her out again next week!"
