Luckily, the crew notices that George is missing, and spot him in the Atlantic Ocean. On deck, George sees some seagulls, tries to fly with them, and falls overboard.

George, ever curious, comes down from the tree " to look at the large yellow hat." He puts the hat on but it is so large that he could not see and this gives the man in the yellow hat the chance to capture him and put him in a bag.
