Grab your tricorn, spyglass, and your parrot! The “meanest, crustiest, most underhanded pirate to sail the seven seas,” better known as Captain Cogburn or One-Eyed Cogburn is on the hunt for his treasure chest. Just after stumbling upon that very chest, Timmy, Mateo, and Jade are alerted to the ship of the cantankerous old sea dog and his rowdy crew, by way of a noisy cannonball. After the three young sailors give the captain permission to board, a game of cat and mouse with the infamous pirate ensues. Will the trio be able to out-smart One-Eyed Cogburn?
