The punchline about Jack Sparrow makes no sense. It has zero connection to drones. Is it just supposed to be funny because it's a reference? Maybe I'm missing something

Davy jones couldn't step on land, and the dirt in the jar symbolizes land in the same way as the bucket here supposedly counts as land

Ah, okay. I guess that makes more sense. It's still a pretty scuffed punchline, because doesn't the movie pretty clearly explain that? Why would the character just be getting it? Seems pretty shoehorned in. I guess I'm thinking too hard about a silly comic
