The Boy and the Pirates
by Lillie Hayward and Jerry Sackheim, directed by Bert I. Gordon
Young Jimmy Warren asks a genie to send him from present-day Massachusetts to the time of
Blackbeard, and the genie obliges! But now, in order to avoid becoming a genie himself,
Jimmy must trick the pirate into returning to Massachusetts.
— Michael Main
This is a funny lookin’ bottle—yeah, neat. But I bet if I took it home, Pop would
say, “It’s just another piece of junk.” Nobody let’s me do anything I want to. I
wish I was far away from here; I wish I was on a pirate ship.
