Pirates, Adventures in Art - Season 2

Leo disregards Skelly's superstitious warnings of Bad Luck Island, until the Pirates are marooned on it. Using whatever they find on the island to build a beacon they lure Krank ashore. With some clever trickery the escape in Kranks own landing craft. // Leo and Cleo print posters using Wango mangos, to warn Fresco that the island they're exploring is inhabited by fierce Wangomangorangosaurus. Krank shows up thinking he has the Pirates within his grasp only to come face to face with legendary Wangomangorangosaurus. He and the Minions decide to skedaddle before it's too late.

The Pirates cure Fresco's case of Itchygitchyitis by successfully getting him the juice of the very rare TwoTone Lime, which only turns green as it falls from its tree. A daily glassful of the juice is also Queen Conformia's secret to looking so young! // The Pirates visit their friend the famous opera singer Giuseppe Fortissimo who seems to have lost his singing voice. The pirates discover that they need to brighten his surroundings with murals to help with the problem.

While saving Cleopatra's golden crown from Queen Conformia, the Pirates have to save Fresco from the gold fever that overtakes him. // Leo wishes he could "think outside the box', like his namesake, as the Pirates explore Leonardo da Vinci's secret workshop. And then he does just that when he invents a "pedicopter" to help the Pirates escape Admiral Krank.

Fresco wants to prove his ability as a photographic artist. While the Pirates are on a shore mission, his photographs end up containing the clues to what's happened to the missing Leo and Cleo - and lead to their rescue. // Fresco wishes he was bigger - think of the heroic exploits he could carry out! But when Admiral Krank unleashes the deadly-accurate Razzle-Dazzler, it's Fresco's small size that allows him to save the day.

Fresco is captured by Admiral Krank while practicing a difficult series of Pirate skills for "The Next Top Pirate". Leo and Cleo mould Minion costumes so they can get aboard the SS Obey and rescue Fresco - and he successfully uses the Pirate skills to escape. // When the Pirates lose the map that has guided them to the hiding spot of the Emerald Tiara, Fresco's song about the various textures of the tunnels they took helps them find the way out.

The Mayor of Rarebit-on-Toast is aghast. The Golden Gorgon, awarded to the maker of the world's best cheddar, has been stolen! // The Pirates have been invited to visit Crazy Castle - or else dire consequences may result! The Castle is rumoured to be inhabited by a Phantom who makes people see things that aren't there. As it turns out, it's the home of Ziggy Peace, a refugee from the 60's and op-artist extraordinaire.

Conformia wants to destroy a sacred goblet which could prove Cleo is the true Queen! A chance encounter with a potter named Aoloani leads the pirates to learn about pottery-making from clay. // Leo, Cleo and Fresco with the help of their friend Claude Beret learn how impressionism is all about capturing the feeling of something rather than the reality of it. Conformia is thrilled to see the Pirates consorting with the famed Impressionist Beret, because she believes he loves her, and she wants him brought to her Castle.

Our heroes learn that art can be made from anything, with the right resources and a little imagination. In this case, they trick Pirate hunter Captain Driftnet who Krank has hired to capture them into thinking the legendary Great White Tuna has come to avenge his actions toward fish - except the 'Tuna' is really made of old lawn chairs and other things the Pirates salvaged! Driftnet and Krank are fooled and quickly tuck tail and run. // Every high school student's favourite social studies project - the diorama - is the focus of the Pirates after they see Skelly has built one in a bottle. The diorama they build becomes a trap for Krank, who has shrunk everybody down with this Shrinkerizer. Unfortunately for Krank and his Minions, Fresco grabs the Shrinkerizer away from the even-more-dimunitive Krank before the Admiral can escape from his new Diorama home.

The Pirates go down on the farm to visit Ol' Madcap Lewis, one of the greatest folk artists around! Conformia sends Krank to Lewis' farm in the hopes of getting some cream for her bathtub from the farmer's cow, Biscuit. // When Conformia declares an Artless Festival, Leo's beatnik cousin MIO teaches the Pirates that Abstract Art isn't about realism - it's all about the art showing how you feel. They plan on showing up at the Artless Festival with their art, but they're captured by Krank and put into the hold of the SS Obey.
