Synopsis
It's a beautiful day to be a pirate, as far as Captain Blackbird is concerned, but it seems his crew feels differently. They're sick of getting scurvy and going weeks without finding any treasure!

Synopsis
On the morning Jary Tomlin finds the world's last remaining gun, he and his wife are having an argument in the kitchen.
