Remember: everything Miguel O'Hara says is made up.

It isn't often that you get to hypnotize pirates. It's even less often that pirates just happen to stumble into your territory, no coercion needed. Yet here he is. A pirate, presumably, floating limply in the water. Your water. But you don't remember luring him here... a sunken pirate, perhaps? Nevermind that. He's about to be a dead pirate, unless he gets some oxygen into his human lungs.
