The gang, Henriette and Carmelita all sat together at a table at a pub. They were having another meeting where they would do over their plans. Bentley took out his self-named tech.

"I'm going to be honest with you guys," he started his speech, "the fact that Penelope wants to fight us herself is both good and very bad. On one hand, we've managed to dwindle the number of her troops down to only a few pirates. The bad news is that she probably has something planned for us when we reach her. Thankfully, so do I. I recently came into contact with Morgan Fox again, and he says he'll be able to take us directly to the Emerald Eclipse."

"The ship that married the French," Henriette laughed with a hiccup. Bentley looked at her with a suspicious expression.

"I though we made sure you wouldn't have rum for awhile!"

"I love hippos," Henriette hiccuped.

"Aw, shucks," said Murray, looking a little flattered, "thanks, Henriette."

"I always go to sea as a common sailor," Henriette said, "because of the wholesome exercise and pure air of the forecastle deck. For as in this world, head winds are far more prevalent than winds from astern —that is, if you never violate the Pythagorean maxim."

At that moment, Henriette lifted a leg above the table and let rip a sound so cacophonic that it could only be compared to a foghorn. "Paint that one pink!" Henriette laughed heartily, "none of the blokes could ever beat me at this."

The guys at the table looked shocked, but Carmelita on the other hand looked irritated. She got up from her seat, stood up and started chastising the raccoon pirate.

"I could brush off Bob's antics because he was a cave raccoon, but you should be more civilized!"

"I'm sorry," said Henriette, not sounding sorry at all, "let me give you a closer whiff." She stepped up on the table and pointed her captain's quarters in Carmelita's direction. As soon as she did this, the guys ran (in Bentley's case, wheeled) away from the table before Henriette could release noxious "Gross!" Carmelita complained, "right back at you!" And with that she stood on her chair and pointed her butt towards Henriette, not caring at that moment that people were giving their table dirty looks, with some people even leaving. The fox grunted, in attempt to push something out.

"Now that we're out in the fresh salty air, we can continue to discuss our plans," Bentley said.

"I lost my appetite anyways," Murray said, but then he lifted up a chicken leg he was holding, "oh, it's back," and he took a bite.

"Not the most dainty of gals, is she?" Sly said, "sure that was a given, but the Thevious Raccoonus never mentioned this."

Bentley and Murray eyed Sly with a raised eyebrow.

—"Why are you staring at me like that?"

"She's your ancestor," Bentley said.

—"When I said I took after her, I didn't mean like that."

"Okay," Bentley said, moving on to the plan, "when we reach Penelope, we need to use that sword Henriette found in order to damage her mech. That's right, nothing we have other than that sword can actually penetrate the suit or damage it in any way."

"Wait a second," Sly said, a bit concerned, "are we going to kill Penelope or something?"

"No," says Bentley, "definitely not. We need to know what her plan is, and we need to know it now, before she escapes again. In short, we damage the suit, get Penelope, and head back home. We'll do all the questioning we need to.

"You're forgetting about Red Rum Roger," Sly reminded him, "What if he shows up?"

—"I don't know how anyone could survive a crash like what he went through, but if he does show up, when he have to take him down, too. Now let's do this!"

Morgan let everyone including Henriette, board his ship.

"That would be quite enough of that, madam," he said as he took away Henriette's rum bottle and chucked it into the ocean.

"Wait, where am I again?" Henriette puzzled as she started to sober up a bit.

"You are aboard the H.M.S. Triumph, Henriette," the fox man told her, "Expect your time on it to be quite brief if you aren't careful enough. Now, I assume you are all prepared for battle?"

"Affirmative," Bentley joined in.

"¡Si!" Carmelita added.

"You bet!" Sly said.

"'The Murray' is ready to crack some metal pirate skulls!" The hippo announced.

Morgan turned around and saw a familiar ship.

"Well, it looks like we won't have much time to waste. Black Beard has arrived!"

The Emerald Eclipse came into view, with Black Beard at the helm. The Emerald Eclipse, which has now been outfitted with several upgrades, used a tractor beam to pull the H.M.S. Triumph closer to it. The ships collided, sending Bentley flying toward a ledge, hanging on for dear life, and Carmelita rushing over to get him, only to have Putrid Pelicans ambush her. Morgan and Henriette, on the other hand, were ambushed by a familiar

"What?! You again?!" They both said in unison.

"You be quite unlucky, fox!," Red Rum Roger declared, "And you, One-Eye, are-Ya know what, 'tis is getting annoying now. I can't keep doin' de pirate lingo anymore. Just surrender, One-Eye, and 'tings will get better for ya."

"Oh, go stuff a mattress!" she told him, then turned to her temporary ally, "Morgan, take care of him, okay?" And with that, she joined up with Murray and Sly.

"Enough," said a familiar mechanically deepened voice, "It looks like Sly and Murray will have to die first. Congratulations, Cooper, you get a one-way ticket to your grave.''

—"'The Murray' will prove you wrong!"

"Let's go for it, big guy!" Sly encouraged the hippo as he stood by his side.

Black Beard started to fire small cannonballs from its shoulder turrets and attempted to slash at the three with a sword. They successfully dodged the slashes. It turns out Black Beard had hidden missile launchers. But the downfall for the metallic mech was that it had targets that marked where it was going to fire, so they got out of the way as it happened. Then it revealed shoulder-mounted cannons that shot out a substance that covered the floor in ice. At this moment, Murray managed to throw a large cannon ball at Black Beard, which disabled it and allowed Henriette to slice off the mech's arms until only the head remained. Then she tossed the legendary sword to Sly, who leapt in and sliced off the mech's head.

Black Beard's torso flew off into the distance and large new body slowly emerged from the sea. The old body attached to the newer, larger and more grotesque one, becoming the robot's new head.

—''I'll rip you a new one, Cooper! You'll pay dearly for what happened in England!

Black Beard fired from its pistol, the blast knocking out Sly and Henriette.

"THAT DOES IT!" Murray shouted, his anger reaching its peak, "Penelope, do you remember the golden rule, the one about when everything fails?"

—''Heh. What is it?''

"BREAK STUFF!" Murray bellowed in response.

"Not so fast!" Red Rum Roger called. Murray turned around and saw that Morgan had been knocked out. Murray took a look at Black Beard and Roger, then at his friends and cracked his knuckles.

"THE MURRAY" IS READY TO KICK SOME PIRATE REAR!"

Murray, being his usual self, dashed into the fray without a single thought, desired the upgraded Black Beard mech being loaded with powerful weapons that could easily kill Murray in a few hits or less. While the new Black Beard mech showed off stronger attacks, such as a cybernetic cutlass that looked very formidable, it is Red Rum Roger who posed a more serious threat due to his attack variety, ice based attacks, courtesy of Penelope. Roger was able to create icy spikes from the ground and cover the floor with ice, making movement troublesome for Murray. Even moving away from Roger wasn't a simple strategy, as the bird would attempt to fire icicles at Murray. However, Roger also has several water-based attacks up his sleeve, as pillars of boiling geyser water rose from underneath of the arena to try and boil Murray alive along with firing high-pressurized water from his new hand cannon. Murray managed to stun Roger with a Thunder Flop, grab him, and throw him off out of the arena.

"Nice landing," Murray taunted.

Murray figured he'd need to rely on a fresh supply of cannonballs in order for him to attack the upgraded mech. So he filled up the cannons of either the H.M.S. Triumph and Emerald Eclipse. A cannonball hit the upgraded Black Beard, disabling it once more. Their were a grand total of ten cannons, five on each half of the ships that aren't connected to one another. Flashlight guards, the Putrid Pelicans to be exact, tried to hinder Murray's progress in between trying to get ten cannonballs to hit Black Beard, but, with how strong he is, the hippo had very little trouble taking them out.

"De hippo is strong," Red Rum Roger climbed back up the Emerald Eclipse completely exhausted, "Dis is no good." Roger breathed heavily as he lied down in exhaustion. Murray used this as an opportunity to pick him up and prepared to throw him into one of the ship's cannons.

"What are ya doing?!" the albatross protested, "I'm no cannonball!

"Happy trails, chum!" Murray shouted as he chucked Red Rum Roger into a cannon.

"Uh-oh," said Roger.

"Uh-oh," said Black Beard.

Murray fired the cannon at Black Beard, causing Penelope to eject from the mech before it exploded. Red Rum Roger ended up back on the ship, stuck in a barrel, completely unconscious. Penelope landed close to Bentley, who was still holding onto the ledge. Henriette, Morgan and Sly managed to regain consciousness.

"You'll pay for this, Murray. I swear it!" Penelope shouted, "that also goes for the rest of the Cooper Gang!"

"Carmelita," Bentley cried out, "I'm slipping!"

"Hold on, Bentley, I'm coming!" Carmelita dashed over to his end of the ship.

Bentley lost his grip on the ledge, much to Carmelita's horror. Bentley closed his eyes as he braced himself for the sharks in the water. But much to his surprise, someone grabbed his hand. Bentley looked up to see Penelope, of all people, coming to his rescue.

"Penelope?!"

Everyone looked at Penelope in shock, including Murray. Penelope helped Bentley up, but then realized what she did.

"W-Wait a minute! This changes nothing, slowpoke!" Penelope said to try and cover herself while she quickly got her Portable Time Machine ready, "Mark my words Cooper Gang! This isn't over between us, so you're foolish to think you've-" Penelope was interrupted by her other end, as she let out a long, wet-sounding fart. Everyone stared in shocked disbelief.

"That was my shoe!" Penelope insisted, as she scraped her shoe on the deck, hoping it'd make a sound to cover herself, but to no avail, as Red Rum Roger, still behind her fanned the air.

"Ok," the mouse woman continued, "it's not making the sound anymore."

"A little windy in Kansas there, Dorothy?" Sly said smugly. Carmelita snickered.

"Oh, grow up!" Penelope shouted, "what is this, grade school?"

Another one escaped the mouse's rear end, causing her to blush deeply. Penelope started to run towards the time portal she had opened up, rapidly passing more gas as she did so. Some were apparently painful, as she had said "ow!" in between some.

"That deluded bug better be working hard, or I'm getting the bug spray!"

And with that, she jumped into the time portal with one last poot.

Job Complete

Outro and Murray monologue

"While it certainly felt great to finally face Penelope, I was pretty shocked when she saved Bentley. Didn't she try to kill him in England? Maybe there was some good in her after all. It made me feel pretty guilty about fighting her, but the rest of the gang said it was the right thing to do. Bentley was still pretty unhappy with Penelope, but looking at him told me that he still loved her a little bit. That certainly didn't make me feel too good. When we got back to Topaz Lagoon, all of these troops were waiting for us. Morgan had called for his troops to capture the rogue pirates, and we handed over Red Rum Roger to the authorities, I'm sure they'd know just what to do with him. We tried to find a clue as to where Penelope may have gone off to, but we found nothing. Thankfully, Henriette was allowed to keep the Emerald Eclipse and get away from Morgan in one piece, and during her first voyage on her old ship in a long time, she came to us with some papers. They looked like some kind of manuscript an author would write, even though I couldn't understand cursive writing too well. However, according to Sly and Bentley, the author of this manuscript was none other than Thaddeus Winslow Cooper III. We were heading to Victorian England next, but Henriette didn't want us to leave. She would miss us terribly, and she'd miss me the most from the looks of things. And so, Sly took one last picture, one with me and Henriette in it, and I gave it to her. I couldn't believe it. "The Murray" was driven to tears again. Sly had to remind me she was his ancestor, which kind of killed the mood for me, but I still felt pretty bad having to leave her like that. I'm sure Henriette will be just fine...if she's not drinking rum."
