Breakfast Time: A Hungry Crew and a Happy Captain
Sean starts his new job as the ship's cook right away as he serves breakfast to the crew. The hungry shipmates line up for food but their excitement quickly goes away once they take a look at their meal. Alexis takes one look at the gruel and refuses to eat it. But her complaints to Sean won't bring her better food. Making matters worse is the fact that the Captain gets to eat a heartier, tastier breakfast than the rest of them. Sean prepares a medley of scrambled eggs, diced bell peppers, onions, a little bit of steak, some fruit and bacon, just for the Captain. Once the delicious breakfast is served to Joe Don, he begins to eat, washing the eggs down with rum, proudly commenting, "Ah, the life of a Captain."
Jay also begins fulfilling his duties as Bosun when he orders the crew to scrub the deck. "Life on the Picton Castle is no easy task," laments Louie as he and the rest of the crew get to work. As Jay observes the crew hard at work, he also notices the Captain enjoying his breakfast. "Everybody's busting their butts," complains Jay. "Joe Don's just sitting back, getting fat, avoiding the sun. And he's up there like the cookie monster, just cramming stuff into his mouth." Joe Don doesn't show any remorse as he continues to eat his breakfast, chuckling as his crew scrubs the deck.
The Master Gunner's Treasure
Host Cameron Daddo arrives on the ship with a key that will open the next compartment of the Chest of Zanzibar. Kendra takes the key and opens the compartment where she finds two maps, one for each crew. Cameron informs everyone that from this Expedition forward, the Captain and the two Officers will lead the Black Crew. The rest of the shipmates will be randomly divided to either follow the Captain on the Black Crew or oppose him on the Red Crew. Everyone proceeds to pick either a black or a red shot to determine which crew they will join. The Black Crew now consists of Joe Don, Ben, Cheryl, Nessa, Azmyth, Louie, Christa and Jupiter while the new Red Crew includes Sean, Joy, Kendra, Christian, Alexis, Laurel and Jay. Only if the Black Crew wins will Joe Don remain Captain.
Cameron introduces the new Expedition by explaining that this next treasure was hidden by Felipe Sanchez Grillos, Captain Henry Steel's Master Gunner. "He had a talent for trickery, booby traps, and a love of snakes," Cameron explains. The Pirates learn that they must swim to shore through shark-infested waters, then hike along the treacherous coastline before entering the jungle where the leading crew can sabotage the other crew. Then, they have a grueling run up a steep mountain in search of a Snake Pit where the deadly snakes guard the tools needed to find the treasure.
