É uma prequela para Piratas do Caribe: A Maldição do Pérola Negra .
The short film serves as a prequel to The Curse of the Black Pearl, explaining just why Jack Sparrow's boat, the Jolly Mon, was seen sinking at the beginning of the whole story, and explaining why wenches Scarlett and Giselle were so upset with him, and it also implies how Cotton lost his tongue. The plot took inspiration from the "Auction scene" from the original ride.

Cotton was a pirate who operated in the Caribbean during the Age of Piracy, most notably during the mid-18th century. Little is known about his early life.

He subsequently trained his loyal parrot to speak for him -- though how he achieved such a feat, as a mute, remains unknown

Scarlett also showed that she took out four nails that went on Jack's boat in case he had "cold feet", immediately showing Jack Sparrow trying to get water out of the boat as he sailed to Port Royal.
