All aboard for the transcribed premiere production, the crews of the Paul Parrot, that exciting story of a whaling crew that turned into a hunt for buried treasure. Our friends now find themselves in just about the worst predicament they've encountered since the crews began.
Dirk Briscoe, who's been led to the diamond deposit on Galtow Island by Redmall Hoolie, is now in full control of the mine. He's blasted the landslide with his own explosives and is taking the gems for himself.
He has so firmly entrenched himself and his men about the mine that no attacking party could hope to defeat him. Not only that, Briscoe holds Captain Dalton prisoner, and though the crew of the Paul Parrot on the beach of Galtow Island does not know this, he is preparing to exterminate all of them by hurling explosives in their midst with two big capitals he has constructed.
Meanwhile on the beach, Mr. Grange is beside himself when he hears that Johnny and Sue have taken some of the Paul Parrot's own explosives from the beach and run off with them no one knows where.
You now find Johnny and Sue around on the other side of the island. Johnny's arms filled with heavy, ominous looking canvas bags. Oh, Johnny, do be careful. If you stumble, you know what might happen.
I'll watch my step, Sue. See, I always said you were the bravest boy I ever knew. I never would have thought of taking those explosives around on this side of the island. Well, gee, I bet you would have thought of it in just a minute.
This way, we can sneak in the cave that leads from the back of the island to the mine, and get right underneath that briskle. Then we can set off the powder right underneath them. We'll abe surprise.
