Captain Jack Sparrow makes a daring escape using townspeople for cover while crossing a bridge […]
It’s time for minute 20 and Jack’s daring escape from the clutches of Commodore Norrington.

In this episode Mullroy waves the reductio ad absurdum wand and along with Murtogg try to determine if Jack Sparrow is telling the truth while helming the wheel on the docked HMS Interceptor.
