We’ve had a couple if good responses to Marlin’s joke. Which do you like best? A1 or A2?

In Finding Nemo, Marlin never finished telling his joke.

"A mollusc went up to a sea cucumber…"

A1: And the mollusc said to the sea cucumber, "You look cool with a capital ‘Sea’!"

A2: And the sea cucumber enquired: "What’s up? You looked shell-shocked!"
