Everyone loves the scene where more and more people are shoved into Groucho's "stateroom," or the Take-Me-Out-to-the-Ballgame interlude at the opera.

...telephone directory and the formal wear was mostly rented. Newspaper reporters divided their attention between F.D.R.'s youngest son John and a passenger notable chiefly for having made 22 previous crossings. Desperately, they wove vignettes from such unpromising material as the pet white mouse in a first-class stateroom, the ship's minor collision with a whale, and a vicar selling oak trees to reforest Sherwood Forest.
