D: (The yacht is getting closer.)
Helen: Hey, boys! We heard you were out fishing.
Mary: Care to join us for lunch?
Fred: Lunch? Sure...
John: Thanks, girls, but this is a guys-only thing! We'll see you girls later.
(The yacht leaves.)
Andy: Why did you do that, John? They could have helped us!
Fred: And fed us!
John: Because it's embarrassing to be rescued by two women when we're doing some male bonding! We'll just wait here for somebody else to come by and rescue us!
(Much later...)
Andy: We've been sitting here all day!
John: At least I saved us the humiliation 1 from being rescued by Helen and Mary!
Andy: Hey! Here comes a boat!
John: It's the coast guard! Yo! Over here! We had a rough time, guys, but at least we saved our male pride!
Andy: Uh... Are you sure about that, John? Just our luck!
John: Oh no! Rescued by the only all female crew in the entire coast guard!
