Storyline

Donna, the wife of the black pirate desperately wants a new dress. The black pirate sails to Egypt and finds the local merchandise to be of low quality because the sultan and his 2 greedy brothers are heavily taxing any importers from the east. The black pirate convinces the brothers to work together and lower taxes and the result will be more importers and greater profits. The brothers agree and reward the black pirate with fine jewels and silks. However , Donna is upset that “I sent you on a simple errand, and you brought back everything other than what I asked you for”.
