Biography[]

Season Four[]

When his ship is attacked by the pirates, the Cook hides belowdecks. John Silver fights his way down in an effort to find Madi, who is held prisoner on the ship. When he finds the Cook, the pirate puts his sword to the Cook's neck and asks if he is a coward. The Cook replies that he is only the cook, making Silver remember how he was in a similar position to the Cook not very long ago. Silver then questions the Cook about whether Madi is still alive. The Cook leads Silver to the hold, where Silver finds Madi chained, but otherwise unharmed. Silver rushes in and joyfully embraces Madi. The Cook is then taken prisoner with the rest of his surviving crew.
