Another person in the pub give the octopus a guitar, but the octopus plays that equally well. This goes on for some time, with people bringing xylophones, trumpets, drums, violins, harps, flutes and dozens of others.
Eventually, one of the Scots produces a set of bagpipes. The octopus eagerly approaches them, but there is no noise for several minutes. The barkeeper says "Aha, you've lost the bet! Your octopus can't play the bagpipes!"
The octopus replies "Play it? I though I was supposed to make love to it!"
And so continues Mike's streak of terrible jokes!
