shot to change the ending, which was unpopular with test  audiences. In the original ending, after Joe and Patricia are expelled by the  volcano, they are rescued by the Tweedle Dum (the sister of the yacht that  was sunk, the Tweedle Dee.) On board are the rescued crew of the Dee, as well  as Graynamore and "Dr. Ellison", who turns out to be Graynamores tax  accountant (and hatchet man) by the name of Kenneth Hindmick. Graynamore  reveals he had Hindmick pose as a doctor to make Joe think he had a fatal  disease. Hindmick pulls a gun on Joe to protect Graynamore from Joes anger,  and to allow Graynamore to keep the yacht. Joe, having stared into the mouth  of a volcano, calmly swipes the gun from Hindmick, then announces to  Graynamore that he and Patricia had gotten married by the Chief. They both  banish Graynamore and Hindmick to the boats dinghy in the middle of the  ocean. Graynamore tells Hindmick that he likes Joe, and admits being banished  in a small dinghy in the middle of the ocean is his price for being too  greedy, and tells Hindmick to help him row home. Back at the Tweedle Dum, Joe  and Patricia see the four steamer trunks popping to the surface, with the  Chief riding the last one, brandishing his Tobi, happily telling them he  didnt lose his soul after all. Joe replies he didnt lose his either. The  only remnant from the original ending is that in the end credits, you see an  artists rendition of the Tweedle Dum sailing off into the distance.
