Chapter 1: What happens when James, Morgan, and Max return to 2020?
I founded Ornot in 2013. I think the best thing about Shopify is that we can practice business without technical skills. We can manage the company's background and front-end and sell online. If Shopify was a bicycle, it would be a bicycle itself. That's how things are handled and our business is handled in Shopify. Start a free trial at shopify.com.
Hello, Jess again. It's almost summer, and that means it's almost time for GZM's Podcast Summer Camp. I'm on my way there right now to help get things ready. What is Podcast Summer Camp, you ask? It's an audio-based summer camp for your ears. We did it last year, and it was a massive hit. Follow and listen to your favorite GZM show for camp announcements starting next week.
See you at Podcast Summer Camp soon!
James, Morgan, Max. May I be the first to say, welcome home.
Mr. Kincaid and I have been waiting for you. Home?
It's summer in Montauk.
Like we never left.
No, my backpack. I know I had it when we went into the vortex. We must have lost it when the boat split apart and we washed up on the beach. The book! The coin!
You've had quite a journey, haven't you? But like all good things, it comes to an end.

Chapter 2: Who is Frank Kincaid and what is his connection to Captain Flint?
All I want is the treasure.
James, what's he talking about? What treasure? It's a long story, and I hope we live long enough to tell it.
You found Ben Gunn, didn't you? You came through with his boat.
He found us. We wouldn't be here without him.
Ben was always a smart one. Like you, Max. Too smart for his own good, if you ask me. Now, the treasure. Sorry to report that the gold remained in 1756 with Captain Bonnie O'Rourke of the Hispaniola. Did you say 1756?
A female pirate?
She's no pirate! Bonnie O'Rourke was the captain of her own ship. Unlike some people, she gives the orders.
Until it was stolen from her by the one-legged seafaring man.
Long John Silver? I should have known he'd turn up like a bad shilling. Did he play the role of the innocent cook? Pretend to be your friend?

Chapter 3: What treasure is Frank Kincaid searching for?
Cynthia, tell your son to give me the book.
What?
The one he took from the lighthouse.
Why is the book so important to you? I can think of one reason. Max, remember the page you tore from the pirate book? The portrait you projected onto the sail to frighten the crew?
I said I was sorry about that.
No, I mean, take a good look at Mr. Kincaid. Does he remind you of anyone?
Enough of this nonsense! Either you tell us where to find that treasure chest, or... It's... it's him!
Why didn't I see it right away?
James, is it possible? That's another thing my dad used to say. Right, Mom?

Chapter 4: How does the team plan to stop Frank Kincaid?
It's Joe Healy from the Montauk PD. The police! Officer Healy, we're in here!
I've never been so glad to see anyone.
These people... Hello, Joe. Oh, Mr. Kincaid. I didn't know you were staying here. Mrs. Hawkins has been very accommodating.
You know each other?
He's a great friend of the department. Donated all sorts of equipment. Is there a problem, Joe? We got a call from Mrs. McGinty at the lighthouse. She said there was some kind of incident. Incident?
Officer Healy, if you'll listen... I'm afraid it's my fault.
I asked James and his friends to pick up a book for me. I needed it for my research. I guess dear old Mrs. McGinty must have forgotten. I'll be sure to return it, along with a donation to the museum. Thanks, Mr. Kincaid. This town needs more folks like you. Well, I'll be on my way. Officer Healy! Yes, James? Go on, James. Your mother and I are dying to hear what you have to say.
I was just going to say... Please tell Mrs. McGinty hello.
Will do. You take care now. Smart boy. Isn't he a smart boy, Lena? Brilliant, Captain.

Chapter 5: What role does the vortex play in this episode?
Billy was always a little slow. I found the vortex long before you. And you must have been trapped ever since. Trapped? Hardly. 300 years ago, a pirate was an outcast, a misfit, only good for hanging. We lived lives that were hard and short.
You're still a pirate.
Aye, but look at me now. I wear expensive suits. I ride in luxury automobiles and fly on airplanes. I have an office in a skyscraper with an elevator and air conditioning. Drink and eat the finest things in the world. Things an old buccaneer could only dream of. And once I have my real treasure, Ben Gunn's treasure, I'll be the greatest pirate of all time!
No!
Take them to the ship! Mrs. Hawkins, kids, welcome aboard the Walrus II. It's what you might call an upgrade.
Look at all of this equipment. CTDs and XBC profilers. It's like a spaceship in the water.
Only the best for me and my crew. Remind me to give you a tour, Max, once we find what we're looking for. There's a nasty fog moving in, Captain. All the better. This will keep away prying eyes as we go about our work.
I still think we should have left the mother and the brats on shore.
Lena, do as you're told. Let me do the thinking, understand?

Chapter 6: What is the significance of the coin found by James and his friends?
Like I said, some women take orders and some women give them. Right, Mrs. Hawkins? Couldn't have said it better myself, Morgan. Both of you, keep your mouth shut if you know what's good for you. Listen up, shipmates! This fog won't prevent our using the multi-beam echo sounder and the underwater drone. We're looking for pieces of a motorboat at the bottom of the ocean.
The first one who sights it gets double his or her share. So get to work! James, will you please explain what's going on? Pirates? Treasure?
1756? Mom, I know it sounds crazy, but it all started when I found Billy Bones on the beach. He was a real pirate, Mrs. Hawkins.
From over 250 years ago.
But how? It's really very simple. There's a hole in the space-time continuum, a portal, a vortex, if you will. You see, Einstein's theory of special relativity... Okay, Max.
Nerd out later. Point is, it took us back in time to an island where we found the treasure. Simple, huh?
Along the way, we met some scary people, but also some really nice ones. And one who was scary and nice, I guess, named Long John Silver. So this Captain Flint, or Frank Kincaid, has been searching for his treasure since the 1700s? Only we told him the treasure was returned by our friend Bonnie, so what's he looking for out there?
Mr. Kincaid, we're getting a ping from the Echo Sound.
Does it fit the profile? That's affirmative. Prepare the ZX-3000 underwater drone. Max, would you like to assist? Assist with the ZX-3000? Max, remember what happened the last time you assisted a pirate? I'll pass. Pity. I could use a bright kid like you on my crew. Once I have what I need, I'm afraid you'll be expendable along with your friends.

Chapter 7: How does the confrontation between Kincaid and the heroes unfold?
A gift from old Neptune himself. I see pieces of the boat. That must be it. Holler up and be quick about it or the sea floor will be your home.
Is it me or is Kincaid beginning to sound like Captain Flint?
His true self is coming out. Greed will do that. Clear the deck. Make way. What is that mechanical arm bringing up? Hard to tell. It's covered in seaweed. Gather round, mateys. You too, James. Morgan, Max, Mrs. Hawkins. That's definitely not a treasure chest. It's so small. I don't need that old chest. Not when soon I'll have the greatest treasure of all time. James, I don't understand...
That's my backpack. Tell me, Hawkins, is it in there? Ben Gunn's true treasure? Let go of my son. Lena, hold her back. Take it easy, Mrs. Hawkins. Get away from me. Talk, James. I don't know what you mean. I heard you say it. On the beach, after you came back through, the book and the coin were in your backpack. Ben Gunn figured out the equation, didn't he? Don't tell him anything, Hawkins.
He doesn't have to. I can see it all over his innocent little face. Lena, tear apart that backpack! No! My treasure! That's it? One coin? Doesn't even look like a real doubloon. Is that... Ben Gunn's face? Pick it up. Morgan, quick, grab it. Got it! I'll take that, miss. Stay away from her. Morgan, throw it overboard, now! Uh-uh-uh.

Chapter 8: What is the resolution of the story and its implications for the characters?
I don't think so. Let go of my arm!
No! You don't understand what that is.
But I do. And I've wanted it for a long, long time. Ben Gunn thought he could escape me forever. But I outsmarted the genius.
What is it, James? Why is that coin so important? The greatest treasure of all. Time itself. Time? Ben Gunn found a way to control the vortex. A way to travel anywhere in history.
And if you can do that... Then all the legendary treasures of the world can be mine. The tombs of the pharaohs, the glory that was Rome, the golden city of Genghis Khan. It's all there for the taking. I've had my scientists trying to put together the formula since Ben disappeared. But now, thanks to you, my young friends, I have all I need to turn that fantasy into reality! Not if we stop you!
Jimmy, boy, I'm going to miss you. We don't have a plank on this here vessel, but you'll end up in the water just the same. Lena! Wait! You can't do this! I'm afraid you've left me no choice. Say your goodbyes. Soon, you'll be joining your son and his friends in the deep blue sea! Head to open water!
Step up onto the railing. The four of you. So you can shoot us in the back? If you'd prefer, you can turn and face me. Either way, you're going over the side. This is murder!
These days we call it business. You're an evil, evil man. I'd have a hard time convincing you otherwise. James, do something. You're the genius, Max. You must have a backup plan for this moment. Right, Hawkins? Enough! There's a storm approaching. Lena, you know what to do. Walk to the edge.
Now! I'm sorry, Mom. This is my fault. Don't say that. It's true.
