Synopsis
The DigiDestined both new and old search all round the Digital World for the Digimon Emperor, Jafar, Dr. Frankenstein and Captain Hook and their secret base. Cody, Izzy and Iago are first to discover a plethora of Control Spires and Digimon, who are appearing from the "Jolly Roger", Captain Hook's Pirate Ship.

Everyone returns to the real world and Cody and Iago explain what they saw. Izzy quickly draws up a map of the spires it's clear that a path has formed where the spires are appearing. They decide the best thing to do would be to destroy the Jolly Roger, therefore leave Dr. Frankenstein's inventions useless.

Script
Captain Hook: On with it, Boys! We have Control Spires to build!

Dr. Frankenstein: And there's plenty more where that came from!

(INT. - IZZY'S ROOM in the REAL WORLD)

(Cody, Izzy and Iago come through the DigiPort)

Tai: That's everyone!

Izzy: Is my mom here?

Chico: No, we were lucky.

Groucho: We all made it back before she got home.

Izzy: That was close.

Tai: What did you find in the Digital World?

Cody: The whole place was covered with a bunch of Control Spires.

Yolei: I knew it!

Zeppo: You are a genius.

Davis: There must have been a Control Spire Convention in Town!

T.K.: Tell us about it. There were hundreds of them!

Genie: There must have been hundreds of thousands of them!

Cody: We found something else, too! The Jolly Roger!

The Mask: The Jolly Roger?

Iago: Yeah, Captain Hook's Pirate Ship!

Tentomon: (from the Computer) I'll keep my eye open here and report back if there's any trouble.

Izzy: Right. Alright, everybody should take a look at this.

All: Huh?

Izzy: First, look at the area that Davis' group explored. Next, the area that T.K.'s group was in. Next, the area that Groucho's group was in. Finally, here's where my group was. If we connect them together, it's a path.

The Mask: Do you suggest that the Control Spires are creating a path?

Izzy: Yes, Mask. These Control Spires are lined up by Dr. Frankenstein.

Gummo: I'll bet that's where Jafar was leading the Minions to build the Spires.

Matt: And what makes you so sure about that, Gummo?

Gummo: Well, you see, Jafar was lining up the Minions and the Digimon Slaves to build the Control Spires and line them up to form a path. You do have a great idea, don't you?

Matt: Not in the least.

Poromon: They're taking over all the areas! Talk about nesting!

Patamon: There will be nothing left of our world!

DemiVeemon: Not to mention our friends!

Kokomon: Captain Hook is nothing but trouble for a Pirate Captain!

Upamon: That's it! Now i'm really starting to get upset!

Gatomon: If we only could destory that Pirate Ship.

Kari: Wait a minute, that's it. If we destroy the Jolly Roger, then Dr. Frankenstein's Control Spires would be useless.

Genie: That make sense.

Davis: So then why are we sitting around like a bunch of Indians? I say we go to the Digital World, find the Jolly Roger, sink it to the bottom of the Ocean and feed those Crooks to the Crocodile! Right, DemiVeemoon?

DemiVeemon: Right.

T.K.: What do you want to do? Cut off their right hands and throw them to the Crocodile so that he'll follow them from Land to Land and from Sea to Sea, licking its Chops for the rest of them?

Davis: Well, all right. I suppose we have to come up with some sort of plan.

Yolei: He's right. But it's going to take a lot of thinking.

T.K.: I agree. And i also think it's going to take longer than one day to accomplish!

Yolei: Huh? I suppose if we all had to be back by a certain time, we wouldn't be able to concentrate on destroying the Pirate Ship.

Kari: Right. Then we all have to agree on one thing: We don't return until the Jolly Roger is destroyed.

Yolei: Huh? You mean...

Cody: I don't know. If i'm not there for my Mom's Tuna Casserole, she'll now something's wrong! I haven't missed one in two years!

Willis: Unfortunately, Jafar will be casting more Spells and Curses!

Davis: Just make up some excuse to tell her, like you were picked by the Army to go on a secret mission to Mars!

Kari: If you told your parents that, they'd actually believe you?

Davis: 'Course not! They don't believe anything i say!

Willis: More likely, you would tell her that you're off to the Coco Bongo!

The Mask: That's right, and you must've seen the growing popularity of the Coco Bongo Salad Bar, Davis. They have Hicama and Garlic Bread.

Izzy: Ugh...with all these Control Spires in the Digital World, there's no way our Digimon will ever be able to Digivolve!

Matt: That means that us older kids would be useless if we went to the Digital World with you guys.

Tai: That's true, Matt, but there's other ways we can help you without actually going with them! Like Broadway! While you guys are in the Digital World, we'll go to Broadway!

Kari: Huh?

Genie: What?

Groucho: What are you saying, Tai?

T.K.: How's it going to help us if we're fighting the Emperor, Hook, Jafar and Frankenstein while you guys are performing on the Great White Way?

Tai: It's simple. There's a New Production of "Ragtime" coming at the T.S. Eliot Theater. We'll be auditioning for Flaherty and Ahrens. But if we don't, well audition for another Broadway Play or Musical. So, the older kids will audition and cover for you!

Matt: Great idea, Tai. Plus, we get to work with Brian Stokes Mitchell and Audra McDonald!

Tai: Tough job, but someone's got to do it!

Tentomon: I hate to be the fly in your Duck Soup, but the Jolly Roger is gone!

Yolei: I know what happened! The entire Ship just used Pixie Dust and flew right up into the sky!

Hawkmon: Ridiculous. If that happened, someone would have seen it!

Yolei: That's right. It was you!

(Yolei points an accusing finger at Tentomon.)

Tentomon: Me?

Yolei: You were guarding this area the entire time we were gone, now tell us what you saw, or else!

Hawkmon: Stop yelling at Tentomon, Yolei! He tried.

Yolei: Well, he should have tried HARDER!!

Hawkmon: I am terribly sorry, Tentomon. Yolei really doesn't mean any of this, she's been under a lot of strain lately.

Tentomon: Well, must she yell at me? Can't she take a Yoga Class or something?

Grovermon: What's she doing now?

Hawkmon: I'm not going to ask her as long as she has that hammer in her hand.

(Yolei is nailing a rope to the ground.)

Yolei: Troops, i'm off to scout Captian Hook's Pirate Ship Empire. I'll report back soon with good news.

Hawkmon: Yolei, wait for me!

Davis: We got you Yolei!

Veemon: How's Hawkmon doing?

Harpo: I think he'll be alright.

Genie: We wrapped him up in bandages. Now we just have to keep him safe until he heals.

Davis: He sure was brave, saving Yolei like that.

Yolei: (Crying) Hawkmon....

Davis: Yolei? Oh. Huh?

Yolei: I'll stay here and take care of Hawkmon, okay? You guys, go out and find the Jolly Roger.

Davis: But...

(Yolei walks to the group)

Yolei: (Crying) I don't want to cause trouble for anyone else! Please, just go!

(Groucho looks concernly at the crying Yolei and scratches his head.)

Groucho: (Thoughtfully) I've never seen Yolei so Depressed like that. I've gotta have someone to cheer her up, but how and who? (Notices Davis) Of course. She needs a Boyfriend and i think i found one already.

(Groucho turns around and sees Yolei falling on her knees, still crying.)

Groucho: (Thoughtfully) Uh oh, better go to Davis.

(Walks quietly to Davis.)

Groucho: Pssst, Davis.

Davis: Huh?

Groucho: You're a randy for Yolei, so you should try to cheer her up.

Davis: What, but how? I don't know what to do with her like that.

Groucho: Yes you do, just look at her. The Eyes, the Drama, the Poignancy, would it break you to see her like that?

(Groucho points his Umbrella to Yolei.)

Davis: Possibly, but i don't do that kind of stuff.

Groucho: Enough about you, Casanova. Think about her.

Davis: Huh?

Groucho: She's Gentle, Sweet, Nice, Sincere, the Hair, the Eyes, anything. Pick a feature.

Davis: What do you mean? How am i suppose to know Yolei's features?

Groucho: Try to use compliments.

Davis: Compliments?

Groucho: You know? Splendid, Wonderful, Magnificent, Glorious, Punctual!

Davis: Punctual?

T.K. and Kari: Punctual?

Patamon and Gatomon: Punctual?

Cody, Zeppo, Harpo and Chico: Punctual?

The Mask and Genie: Punctual?

Willis and Gummo: Punctual?

Veemon, Armadillomon, Tentomon, Terriermon, Grovermon, Gonzomon and Iago: Punctual?

Groucho: Sorry.

Cody: I think you mean Beautiful.

Groucho: Nice recovery. (as Jack Nicholson) Besides, Davis, here's the deal. If you want Yolei to love you again, you gotta be a straight shooter. Do you got it?

Davis: What?

Groucho: Try to be more SERIOUS!!!

Davis: No way! Remember what Yolei said about finding a cute boy like T.K., but not a big jerk like me? She thinks i'm a jerk.

(Groucho pops out of Davis' head wearing his Goggles.)

Groucho: A Woman appreciates a person who thinks he's a jerk.

(He then disappears and comes out of Davis' coat, looking serious.)

Groucho: Anyway, all joking aside, you really oughta comfort her. Try to remember that you are there for her.

Veemon: Don't you worry about us Davis, we'll be hiding behind the bushes.

(They zip into the Bushes, leaving Davis alone with Yolei who was further from him. Veemon and Groucho pop out of a Tree.)

Groucho and Veemon: Try your best.

(They soon pop into the Tree again.)

Harpo: How about we leave them alone?

T.K.: Alright then.

Willis: He's right. Let's go.

Kari: Right.

Cody: Let's get a move on.

T.K.: But what about Davis, isn't he coming with us?

Groucho: Davis will stay here with Yolei. More of the Pirates and Slaves might attack, so they'll need Veemon, Chico and i as bodyguards.

Veemon and Chico: Good point.

Genie: Alright. If anything happens, we can always email each other.

Kari: And you'll always know where we are through the D3s.

T.K.: If we haven't found the Ship by nightfall, we'll come back here. Okay?

Groucho: Okay, Magic Carpet will guide you, seeya later.

Veemon: Be careful.

Zeppo: Yeah, you too.

(Magic Carpet flies behind Davis, who doesn't hear them. Groucho looks through two small holes from a Tree.)

Veemon: How's Davis doing?

Groucho: Shh...Take a look.

(Veemon and Groucho curiously look at Davis through the holes. Davis takes a much deeper breath and quietly walks to Yolei. He crouches in front of her and puts his right hand on her cheek.)

Davis: Yolei, i'm sorry about what happened to Hawkmon. I know you're trying to win this battle and everything, but you're going about it the wrong way.

(He then lifts Yolei's head.)

Davis: But still, you were very brave and very strong. And nobody in the whole world would care about you the same way that i do.

(Song: There's Me from Starlight Express)

(Yolei embraces Yolei around his neck.)

Davis: It's okay, no need to cry anymore.

(Then he remembers Yolei yelling at Digitamamon about loving a Boy.)

(Enter Flashback)

Yolei: They could really cool like T.K. or a real jerk like Davis!

(End Flashback)

Davis: I probably don't think you could love me the way i do to you. You might like T.K. better than me, cause you said i'm a real jerk.

Yolei: Huh?

Davis: You would not love me, for the sake of finding another Cute Boy like T.K., but not a real jerk like me.

Yolei: Hmm. I'm sorry i said that you're a real jerk, Davis. I actually think you're... kinda cute.

Davis: Mmm-hmm. Thanks Yolei, i think you're cute too.

(Meanwhile, the Magic Carpet is still flying over the Digital World.)

(Back in the Forest, Hawkmon wakes up on Yolei's knees.)

Hawkmon: Where am i?

Yolei: You're safe now. We'll take care of you.

Davis: Just relax.

Yolei: Hawkmon, what can i do to apologize?

Hawkmon: Just...get off my tail.

Yolei: Mmm-hmm!

Davis: Oh.

Veemon: We found Catnip, it cures it all.

Groucho: We found them from the bushes.

Davis: Okay. But let's give them a minute.

Veemon and Groucho: Huh?

(Later on...)

Hawkmon: And one and two, and one and two, Flap those wings! I'd bet you can't do this, Veemon!

Veemon: Oh yeah, says who?

Hawkmon: Says me, that's who.

Veemon: Well watch me! I'll show something that i'd bet *you* can't do!

(Song: Morgan the Commissionaire Cat from Cats)

Hawkmon: It's amazing. I haven't felt this good in years. And it's all because of Catnip! Thanks, Groucho!

Groucho: Don't mention it, fellows. (Whispering) But you'll wake them up. So let's give them some time alone.

Hawkmon and Veemon: Huh?

(Yolei and Davis are sitting beside each other behind a tree.)

Hawkmon: Twitterpated.
