An old, sickly sailor comes to Jim's seaside inn one day. He seems troubled and afraid of something, always staring at the sea and passing ships. Soon, Jim realizes that this man possesses a highly coveted treasure map. However, to everyone's surprise, Jim himself gets involved in the treasure hunt and joins a group of pirates on a ship, embarking on a quest to find Treasure Island.
