- Statue drinking in a bar
- The yelling of mayor Carlos
- Pirate chase
- A pirate drinking rum with several current cats
Theme Song
The Pirates of France theme song is often misrepresented. It begins:
Ho show, ho show, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we bug and annoy,
Wake up me hearties, ho show.
We kidnap and ravage and giggle with joy,
Wake up me hearties, ho show.
Ho show, ho show, a pirate's life for me.
