The Pirate Captain appears onstage, "Aye, tis mutiny! That lady captn was too gentile! Now I ask ye lad-whos in charge here?"
"Ye be in charge, Capn!," the rowdy lot declares, "and we be yer loyal and bloodthirsty crew!" The portly pirate previously seen swabbing the deck raises his politely and says, "Uh, Capn, we pillaged and plundered can we rifle and loot?" The Pirate Captain responds, "Argh! I dont give a hoot! Drink up, me hearties!" "Yo Ho!" shout the pirates.

"Do ye crave the quiet life of a landlubber?" asks the Pirate Captain. "No!" they respond with a shout. The Pirate Captain calls out to his crew, "Aye! What tis it ye blackguards crave?" Their response, "A pirates life!!! YO HO!!"
The pirates sing the familiar tune, Yo Ho, Yo Ho (A Pirate's Life for Me)!

During an instrumental break, the pirates begin to fight each other. Some climb up the ship steps and continue fighting behind the large sail. Through the silhouette on the sail, we see a swashbuckling clash of swords reminiscent of a scene in the attraction.
The portly pirate brings out a cannon and the Pirate Captain shouts, "Stand by as your guns bear! Surrender ya lily-livered lubbers!"
