In the story there is an alligator who has swallowed an alarm clock, and when Captain Hook hears the ticking of the clock approaching under the waves he is terrified, because the same beast has already bitten off his hand and become quite fond of the taste of his flesh.
因為這鱷魚還吃過虎克船長一隻手臂，因此愛上了船長的肉味兒。後來，有了女兒，又拿「小飛俠」來當「床邊故事」。
