The Curse of Oak Island (In a Rush), Hatching the Plan

‘The Curse of Oak Island’ in a rush. We’re recapping the season nine episode ‘Hatching the Plan,’ so what happened? The team starts the week with lots of talk about the 10-foot can slamming. They say nothing’s gonna happen for four to six weeks, but let’s be honest, at this rate, nothing’s gonna happen for four to six years and then we’re back to rooting around in the Dunfield spoils.

They find some iron bits, a few timbers, and stones which indicate another potential pathway. Wow, who knew the Templars, while working in secret, would be such elaborate road builders? And last week’s 90-foot stone carving chisel is identified as an ordinary cribbing spike. That’s disappointing, but maybe it was a cribbing spike used to support the 90-foot stone.

Then it’s time for another random war room theory. This week, they dragged out Xena Halpern’s thoroughly discredited map. A new translation shows a hole under the hatch.

They find an anomaly that’s not really anywhere near where the map said it was, but they were all convinced this proves something, and it does prove something, just the opposite of what they’re claiming. Tune in next time when the team finds evidence the stone roads were once used by a mass-murdering templar cult. They really were psychopaths, but that makes no sense at all, just like Xena Hilbern’s map, and yet they keep using it.
