When did you first meet the adventurers? On my first voyage.

We were all part of the same crew.

Coming up next on The Adventures of Spinner. All these people sailed under

command, Aiden. That they did.

Well then, I'm very glad you retired.

When I heard that the great Captain Aiden and his adventurers were going

together, I worked night and day to produce these special gifts.

Sinbad. The perfect combination of science and sorcery. But one of our

wants us all dead.

Sinbad!

Rhonda!

Can't you do anything?

I'm trying, Dubon.

Oh, it's going to be great to see the adventurers again.

Eh, Dubar? That it will, Sinbad. The tales will tell. The food we'll eat.

The wine. I take it this is a men -only club.

Oh, no. There are some women aboard.

Wait till you meet Fallon.

She's all woman.

All adventurer, too.

When did you first meet the adventurers?

On my first voyage.

We were all part of the same crew.

Aiden was captain.

Dubar, the first mate.

Were you the cabin boy?

More like a captain in training.

I still can't believe that Aiden's getting married.

In case you haven't noticed, lots of people get married.

But Aiden?

I mean, he and Zekin were inseparable.

This Zekin fellow, is he the guy we're meeting en route? Yeah.

He's a wealthy merchant.

Now.

Oh, wait till you meet him.

He's got a wicked sense. You can't escape me, Zekin. Why?

Why are you doing this?

Oh, you haven't figured it out yet.

No, no, no, no.

Oh, gross as hell!

No!

No!

No! No!

Excuse

me,

sir.

How can I help such an illustrious group?

We're looking for the house of Zekin the Merchant. Ah, the famous Zekin.

Just down the road, Sinbad. You can't miss it.

That pepper.

He knew my name.

Zekin!

The place is an inferno!

He couldn't have survived, Sinbad.

Sinbad! Over here!

What?

No.

Goodbye, friend.

Sinbad. Forgive.

Refuse it.

Refuse it! Take it easy.

Sinbad, relax.

His words were a puzzle.

Or a warning.

So, Caitlin, my love, what do you think of the adventurers?

All these people sailed under your command, Aiden.

That they did.

Well then, I'm very glad you retired.

Jared, see who's there.

Jared this, Jared that.

I wish you by a door.

Silver!

Dubar!

I see you brought some friends. The more, the merrier.

How fortunate.

You brought the main course as well.

I missed the bird, ma 'am.

Dubar, introduce everyone.

I'll go talk with Aiden.

Where's Zekan?

Wasn't he coming with me?

Dubar will explain.

Bad news, Jared.

Zekan is dead.

Zimba!

Are you grown?

It's good to see you again, Aiden.

Where are my manners? I think the missus is Zimba.

He was once my cabin boy, but now...

The king of the high seas.

I've heard so much about you.

You're even prettier than Aiden wrote.

Well, he has your knack for malarkey.

He's a great teacher.

Aiden, I'll speak with you for a minute.

Duval! Good to see you.

What a horrible way to die.

It looked like he was mauled before the fire got him, yet we found no animal

tracks.

Farooz, a member of my crew, is my physician.

We've never seen bite marks like this before.

Never.

Look, I don't want to upset Katie.

She's not like us.

She's a proper lady, not some son of a... I understand.

Dubar's probably told the rest of the adventurers by now.

Oh, they'll be discreet.

I'll drink a toast in Zekin's honor.

Remember him for the man he was, an anointed ghost and fine wine.

He'll be my wedding day, spirit if not in the flesh.

Tomorrow, after the ceremony, I want you to promise me that you'll help me hunt

down Zekin's killer, be he man, animal, or monster.

You have my word, Captain.

I think Dubar's showing some of your younger men exactly what real strength

means. Well, we'll see.

Rungar's the man to have watching your back.

He's a good fighter.

It's a bit of a mystery.

Oh, no.

All women are a mystery.

I just love that bird.

What's the matter with Elise?

Oh, she's sulking, I suppose.

She doesn't like my Caitlin very much.

She doesn't like the idea of you marrying anyone other than her.

Is it that obvious?

I figured that out when I was ten.

You always did think... What the...

I hope I...

appearance hasn't alarmed anybody.

Not at all.

Just a storm, little friend.

It made your entrance a little more dramatic than you intended.

Oh, did it?

No matter.

I journeyed to see Aiden, the famous sea captain, the master shipbuilder on the

eve of his marriage.

Well, you found him, little man.

I am called Backbuck.

A tinker by trade.

A dealer dreams and make -believe.

I brought you a present.

It's some sort of a joke.

This is an abomination.

No, Aidan, it's just a toy.

A really remarkable piece of work. I put my soul into it, madam. I thank you for

the compliment.

When I heard that the great Captain Aiden and his guests and his adventures

were going together, I worked night and day to produce these.

Who hasn't dreamed of meeting you all?

Of sailing with you?

Of becoming an adventurer?

Unfortunately for me, my physical condition, lack

of dreams, unrealized.

You seem quite familiar with our exploits.

Oh, indeed I am, Sinbad.

I followed your career, all of your career.

For Sinbad and Dubar.

special gifts.

I understand you both have had dealings with these little ones.

If only the harpies we fought were this tiny.

And for the gracious bride -to -be,

I bring you a companion.

Thank you.

Why is this doll dressed in black?

Black is the color of mourning.

You're not even married, Aiden, yet you already talk like an old man.

It's a harmless toy.

I mean, maybe the little man ran out of white cloth.

Exactly.

My wish is not to offend, simply to add a little something to your life.

Yeah, well, you've done that. And now, since you're not an invited guest...

Aiden.

There is something for everyone in my family.

Something I assure you, all deserve.

And if you wish to pay me for my handiwork, I will be at the forest edge

tomorrow morning.

After the storm passes!

After the storm passes!

If her candle's lit...

I hit something.

I hit something here.

It's green.

It's green.

It's dead.

Throat's been cut.

Tinker's gone.

That's right.

There are a lot of people who hate us. Well, I know the assassin could be one

my guests.

Youngest sailor or older crew member with a grudge?

Perhaps. Do you have any other ideas?

True, we've made a lot of enemies over the years.

But I wouldn't suspect any of your guests.

You've always been too trusting. That's been one of your problems.

Me, I trust no one. That's how I've survived.

Watching my back at all times.

And I've lived my life enjoying the company of friends and family.

For the time being, I want everyone confined to their rooms.

A good idea.

How's Aiden handling all this?

Oh, how he always handles things.

Like digging in and professing to know everything.

Who could have done this in bed?

Maybe it's not a who, but a what?

The little man?

No, he was definitely a who.

There's something about him.

Brynn, you must have sensed it.

There is an unnatural force present.

But if it's a who or a what or a whatever, I can't tell.

But this murderous rage is deeply rooted.

There will be another killing before the night is over.

That's going to make me sleep a whole lot better.

Zekin warned me about a gift.

Now that little man brought gifts.

Harmless dolls.

Well, it wouldn't be the first time that something harmless turned deadly

because of black magic.

Just because a little man is as ugly as his doll. Zubar, you picked up the

sacks. They were empty.

Where did the gifts go?

Maybe he took them with him. Who knows? Nobody saw him leave.

Exactly.

By the looks on your faces, I guess no one figured out who killed poor Kareem.

Don't even get Sinbad started on his who or what speech.

Gotcha. Black magic.

It could be dark forces.

Exactly.

Huh?

Now, everyone be careful tonight.

Tomorrow, we'll seek out this back buck.

Right. We'll let Aiden handle any intruders.

He's got enough armed men here to take over a small country.

My servants will show you to your rooms.

I suggest you post your guards during the night.

It's done.

If anyone even talks in their sleep, I'll know about it.

And deal with it.

Good.

It's a sign, I tell you.

Aiden's marriage is doomed.

It's a sign, all right.

But one of our guests wants us all dead.

If you weren't so jealous of Caden, you'd see that.

I couldn't care what happens to that pasty -faced cow.

I mean, let her be slaughtered in her sleep. Elise.

If anyone tries anything with me, I'll carve them into a jigsaw puzzle.

You can sleep here if you like.

I'm not afraid.

I'm going next door to have a nice warm bath before I go to bed.

If you need me for anything.

Not likely.

How did... A servant brought them up.

End of story.

Hope I don't look like that when I'm her age.

I'm sorry, ma 'am. I tripped in the dark.

All right.

I'm glad you're out there.

God.

Hello? You've come for a farewell fling, Aiden. I'll have none of it.

You've made your choice.

Nerves. I hate weddings.

Did you hear that?

So, Bunder.

I'll be right back.

Don't hurry on my account.

I wouldn't want to get any sleep or anything.

Come for a nightcap, I hope.

I just wanted to make sure that you were all right.

As right as I can be.

Poor Karim.

I just can't get his face out of my mind.

Me neither.

I just can't shake the feeling that there's more to all this than just

I know what you mean.

Lisa won't admit it, but I think it's getting to her, too.

She's taking a bath and she's brought along her sword.

I'd advise you to sleep with yours.

Oh, but I'd much rather sleep with your sword beside me.

I'll take a rain check on that.

Sleep tight.

I've been mad.

I was just posting J .K. Raymond Dickens, my little buddy.

He doesn't drink, though.

I need proof.

Would you care to join?

Don't do as that may be.

I'd rather stay alert until morning.

I'd advise you to do the same.

I think... Jared.

Hmm? Keep your door locked.

my little friend.

Just you and me now.

Have some wine.

So, you fit.

I didn't mean to toss you.

Ah, there you are.

Welcome.

Welcome.

What's going on?

Remember what you said about harmless turning deadly?

I think it was right.

It's locked.

Too far, your neck.

It's just a nick.

Stay back!

these things are alive?

Only when they need to be.

I'd say Backbuck's an alchemist.

Ruse would know all about that.

Ruse! Are you all right?

Well, we got ourselves a situation here.

Well, that is it.

Well, we have several uninvited guests.

You picked a lock.

There's something glitched in it. It's jammed.

Hang on.

Enough of this nonsense.

I'm okay.

That doll, the little man gave me.

It attacked me.

And?

I got upset.

I reacted.

The next thing I knew... Rude. I need

your opinion on something.

Amazing.

The perfect combination of science and sorcery.

The body itself appears man -made, but internal organs have definitely been

conjured up.

Alchemy. Brought to life by dark forces.

More than likely real skin, bones, and blood were used in the mix.

Sin Red?

Aiden and the others?

Jareth's dead.

Keep trying.

you'd do anything.

I'm trying, Duvar. I'm trying.

Don't come any closer.

Keep away from me.

Keep away.

Sin bad!

My soul.

Who's sleeping upstairs?

Aidan and Caitlin.

Caitlin! Where's my Caitlin?

I have to find Caitlin. Yeah, reopening the wound and bleeding to death will not

get you there any faster.

You're right, you're right. If you hadn't arrived when you did.

Just be thankful this little guy didn't have better aim.

If he got his hooks into you, just two inches to the left. I know, I know.

Caitlin!

There's no sign of her, Aiden. We've looked everywhere.

The toy?

Vanished as well.

They probably joined their maker.

That little devil has got my Caitlin.

It looks that way.

But why?

Ransom, most likely.

No.

There's more to it.

It's connected to all of you.

Backpack smugglers have nothing to do with money, Aiden.

I'm sure of that. What does he want, then?

Our lives.

He told us where he'd be this morning.

And he knows we're going to come.

Caitlin is his bargaining chip.

Oh, then let's go.

I don't want to disappoint that little devil. We won't.

Dubar, you're coming with us.

I have a little surprise for our little doll maker.

The rest of you stay here.

If we're not back before sundown, we'll assume the worst.

Catch back, but I can bring him to justice.

What are you going to do about it?

Take care.

Oh, why so glum, my dear?

It's a perfectly lovely day.

Granted, it will be your last.

But for me, it's going to be the biggest day of my life.

You're the devil.

Thunder? Not a cloud in the sky.

Let's say we ride in and kill him.

He's probably prepared for that.

We have to keep Caitlin alive.

Give me five minutes, and then ride.

Slowly.

Aiden, you've got to listen to Sinbad.

Company! No need to get up. I'll greet my guests.

I wouldn't do that, Captain.

For all you know, my little friends are all around you.

Behind the flowers. Oh, under a rock.

Perched in the tree.

Now, drop your weapons and dismount, please.

I was hoping Sinbad would join us as well.

Sinbad is dead, along with the others.

He died fighting, though. He didn't give in.

How noble.

He died fighting off little toys.

I like that.

It was unfortunate that some of my friends had to perish.

But no matter.

I will recreate them.

After all, it was for a noble cause. Which was?

Justice, Captain Aiden.

Justice.

You know all about justice, don't you?

Justice.

It's money you want. No, no, no.

But you will pay me for my life's work with your life.

You still don't understand, do you?

You really don't recognize me. I've never seen you before in my life. Nor I.

Oh, no?

Think back.

There was a silly little boy.

He was a bit clumsy.

You tossed coins at him when he danced for you.

And dance he did.

He wanted so much to be liked.

He had never been to sea, and more than anything, he wanted to be an adventurer.

He would have been happy just to be your cabin boy, but you already had one.

Sinbad.

And so that clumsy fool tried to impress you.

He climbed to the top of the crow's nest and fell into the sea.

After hitting the deck, Aiden... The poor lad's name was Kerwin.

Indeed.

That was my name.

We all thought you were dead.

We gave money to your family for your funeral.

We all mourned your loss.

But, as you can see, I survived.

After a fashion.

I broke my back.

Crawled back home in such a state that even my family didn't want me around.

My little sister couldn't stay back broke, so...

I became that buck.

I was shunned by all.

Had no friends.

So, I decided to create friends.

Create a family to replace those you took away from me. You didn't know. I

saw my Lord together.

I...

Spent years studying science and sorcery, using discarded dolls and

potions and some of my own flesh and blood to create the only friends I ever

knew and would ever know.

Not yet, my friends.

Soon.

I created them for one purpose only, gentlemen.

To cancel out your lives.

Lives you enjoyed after canceling out mine.

Such big men.

Simba!

My friends didn't kill me last night.

They will now!

Simba!

My friends will kill you.

I'll kill you. My friends will kill you.

Stand back.

Let go.

My friends will kill you.

I only know him.

That buck was crippled by his accident, Aiden.

By his hate.

Do you think Caitlin and Aiden will be happy together, Sinbad? Well, I hope so,

Debar.

Their love was certainly put to the test.

Aye.

Deacon. Jared.

Elise.

Kareem will be remembered by all of us adventurers and adventurers to come.

When I think of that Batbuck, it's just a memory now.

Whatever evil Batbuck conjured, it died with him.

Bye.

Hey.

Mom, dear, we're going to be late.

But I'm playing with my new dolly, Mommy.

Come on, you can play with it later. It's just a silly toy.

It's not.

It's my friend.

Next time on The Adventures of Sinbad.

Her name is Shirley.

Those ones. And those ones over there. Every spring, she comes with her

and takes a group of men away with her to work in the mine.

Look, I have to save him. Save who?

My brother.

Have you ever tried to band together and defeat this hero? We tried.

Paid a horrible price.

Here is your nightmare.

What happened? Just how big is this family?

Sinbad, hurry.

This Sinbad has killed my sisters.

He has killed my sisters.

I want him.

Hear me, Sinbad. You will pay.

the death of my sister.
