OK, so a day and a half goes by with everyone back on the ship. Mostly the girls lay out in the sun in bikini's, which is the whole point of bringing everyone back.
Jo Dong makes some really wise comments about Christa using her breasts to win, which he appreciates.
Ben and Louie share a moment, with Ben apologizing for throwing the last challenge and asks if Louie will take the 12K he made on that win. Louie says, "damn straight, I'm just here for the money"
OK, so the next night all are called up on deck for another Pirate Court. Ben and Christa get to recruit 3 ghosts each to help them, but in the sexist wisdom of this show each "side" has to have 2 men and 2 women. Each of the ghosts who wants to offers a reason for chosing them. This is really boring, frankly. Everybody wants in. John makes a freaky case for why he "totally believes in Christa's spirit".
Ben offers his 80K winnings so far to the 3 people he choses if he wins. Christa offers her 70K. Which is really funny since earlier they were both talking about making about 110K so far.
They vote. Ben wants Cheryl, Az and Nessa. Christa wants Jay, JOHN for god sake, and Nessa. They have a bidding war over Nessa and Ben offers her an additional 10K win or lose. Christa asks Jay and John if she can offer some of their money to Nessa, and both of these total TOOLS say, "I'd do you for nothing". Oh sorry, they say "I'd help you win for nothing". Christa gets Nessa and Ben takes Jupiter.
The next day is the final challenge. Really. The teams have to row to shore, race up the mountain and into the caves to find an ancient chinese box, with a puzzle key. Interestingly there are 2 ancient chinese boxes that are identical.
Ben's team is ahead but gets passed by Christa's team. Ben gets the clue open first. Next clue is a packet of playing cards which have to be put in order. I guess this is a brain teaser?? Both start doing it but Christa gets all screwed up as to how to do it (don't ask) and Ben's team gets ahead. The side of the organized deck of cards says, "look under the cannon balls". Back into the cave, Az pulls out a big ship's wheel under a bunch of balls. Think Ikea playground. Jay gets tired of waiting for Christa to figure out how to organize the cards and watches Ben's team walk out with the wheel. He gets the wheel and they basically skip the card thing. The next clue says the leader (ben/christa) has to do the next part themselves. Run back up the mountain to Capn. Steele's private quarters. They both run up. Ben beats Christa and hangs the wheel on a coat of arms on the wall. They both are there staring at the clue now. No one gets it. Ben figures it out first and lines up the letters so it says, "PSYCH, the money is in the chest of zanzibar back on the ship". Both now have to go back down the hill carrying a big ass metal chest with a key in it. Ben's gets there first and his team paddles back to the ship with Christa's team following.
Back on the ship, Ben opens a clue in the chest and finds he has to solve ANOTHER DAMN PUZZLE. He's working on it when Christa shows up. Both are neck and neck solving the puzzle.
Ben gets it first and wins the $$.

Pirate Master Finale-Part One
Yes, part one. The final show was 90 minutes long.
Started with a LONG recap of the past 13 weeks. Which I had to watch twice since my computer kicked me off. It didn't even want to watch.
So..... final 3: Christa, Jay and Ben get up and think that today is the final competition. ALL HANDS TO THE MID DECK . Host-Dude, Cameron (in white pants, and thank GOD I watched it tonight and not next Tuesday AFTER LABOR DAY ) , who sent them a cheese plate and 3 bottles of wine last night, tells them the lock holds the HALF MILLION TREAURE. BUT, this is not your final expedition. First, you have to find the first mate's treasure since "he holds all my secrets", which I KNOW is code for sex with the first mate. There's one more challenge before the final 2 go for the gold.
At this point, I thought of killing myself. Really.
There is only one clue, so the 3 have to go down below and copy it. I'm guessing right about now the show was canceled and Burnett had to cut costs. So, all 3 copy a map on one side and a list of latin words and their english meanings on the other. Christa says, "fortunately I know some latin". Hmmm. I guess in addition to spanish and chinese, Sesame Street now does a Latin version.
Here's the challenge: swim to shore, climb space mountain, find a sword on a rope bridge. Yes, I was yelling at the screen "and use the sword to kill both of your competitors, thereby ending the show".
They swim. they run. they get the swords, and the sheaths say go to the pool for the next clue. Ben and Jay take off running, Christa behind. Ben then Jay find the pool and swim around until they find a rock with graffiti on it. Fortunately it's really a clue, not F.U. Pirate Master written on it. They use the latin to translate the clue which says, "drag your sorry asses back up the mountain". Jay and Ben are neck and neck, and go back across the rope bridge where there is a sabotage. Ben sabotages Christa by cutting down the bridge, while Jay says something like, "damn, I probably ain't getting laid tonight afterall". Christa has to stumble around another way in the jungle. She's basically done.
They have to find another pool and swim underwater and translate more latin. This one says, "dudes, the gold is next to the waterfall". Ben finds the treasure.
They drag it back on deck and host-dude opens it. It has 50K and 2 more clues for the finale. Ben, the idiot, splits the 50K with dumb and dumber. Jay and Christa have to go to Pirate Court where SURPRISE!!!!! the ghosts of contestants past make the final decision on who gets to stay.
Christa is in her lucky corset, and she gets to talk first. blah blah blah, everything I did, I did for my daughter. Jay: "hey, I know I'm a jerk but the game is pirate master, not princess master". Lots of drama as the ghosts get to speak. Kendra rips into Christa saying, basically, "I'm sick of you using your daughter as an excuse. If you want to do something for her, get a real job". Joe Dong says, "Christa was a follower, Jay was a leader". John, that weird dude, says something about how hot he is for Christa and uses the term Machiavellian , correctly I might add.
They vote. Christa gets one vote, Jay 12. BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE..... Host dude says, Jay, you aren't cut adrift tonight but you will join the ghosts, who will all continue the adventure WHICH IS FAR FROM OVER......
Cue the spooky Pirate Master music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
