Blackbeard is eventually confronted by The Jolly Roger's actual captain, Captain Hook. Blackbeard and Hook duel, but ultimately Blackbeard is defeated. Although Ariel, a mermaid who is in love in Eric, pleads with Hook to keep Blackbeard alive so that he can reveal where Eric is, Hook binds Blackbeard's arms and legs and makes him walk the plank into the ocean. Ariel saves Blackbeard without Hook's knowledge.
