Story

Guybrush is confronted by Morgan LeFlay, a pirate hunter hired by the Marquis De Singe, who as it turns out is also a huge fan. Guybrush manages to knock her off his ship, but not before Morgan cuts off his Pox-infected hand. Replacing the lost hand with the hook Morgan left behind, Guybrush heads to Spinner Cay. On the Jerkbait Islands, Guybrush finds Elaine serving as a mediator between the MerLeader and the angry, Pox-infected McGillicutty. Elaine is upset over the loss of Guybrush's hand (and subsequently his wedding ring), and entrusts to him her own ring for safekeeping.

Guybrush is then sent out to look for the Vaycaylians' three summoning artifacts- the Wise Turtle, the Noble Seahorse and the Cranky Fish - that will lead him to the only item that can cure the Pox of LeChuck: La Esponja Grande. Using a number of clues left behind by Coronado DeCava, Guybrush recovers the Cranky Fish, and with help from the reformed but not very bright human LeChuck is able to acquire the Wise Turtle. The Noble Seahorse - formerly in McGillicutty's possession - is dug out from where the crew had buried it.

Just as Guybrush gains all three artifacts, McGillicutty resorts to kidnapping the MerLeader and laying siege to Spinner Cay. The combined efforts of Elaine, LeChuck, Guybrush (and a rubber tree mast) eventually clear the blockade, rescue the MerLeader and drive the pirates back. Guybrush then uses the artifacts to summon the legendary sea creatures that direct him toward La Esponja Grande, but is forced to leave Elaine behind with LeChuck.

Meanwhile, the Marquis hires Morgan to once again pursue Guybrush, this time bringing him in alive for a quadrupled rate. Morgan again boards the ship and takes Winslow hostage. As she is about to bring Guybrush in, a giant manatee appears and swallows the ship before disappearing back into the depths.
