Three days later, the pirates are back on the moors. They're still waiting for the captain and his wife to return from the war, but they're happy to be reunited with their baby boy. The captain tells the pirates that the doctor has said that the baby's not poisoned, so they can go home and enjoy the freedom of the sea. He also tells them that he's going to give the captain away as soon as they get to the coast. The pirates agree that they'll get the captain out of the war soon enough, and the captain promises to give his wife away as well. He tells the boys that if they don't like kissing the captain, they can kiss the girl they want. He says that if the girl doesn't want to kiss him, he'll kiss her anyway. He's also going to test the kiss by touching the girl's face. He wants to make sure that the kiss tickles the girl, and he wants to see if that's true. He asks the captain if he can marry the two of them in the middle of the night, and they agree to do so. The two men have already discussed the situation, and now it's time for them to get married. They all agree that the marriage will be free, and that the wedding will take place in the mess hall. The pirate tells the captain that he will be the king, which means that he won't have to deal with the wives and the old men. He hopes that the captain will accept him as his son-in-law, because that way, he can get revenge on the old man for not marrying his daughter instead of his wife. The old man agrees, but he asks if the captain wants to let the marriage go through with the pirates. The man says that he wants the pirates to do it the way they want it to, and then he asks the pirates if they'd like him to tell the wife that she's the daughter of the pirate captain. The men agree that it would be best if the marriage went through, but the captain says that the world out there will be at the pirates' feet in a moment, and if they want to get revenge, they should do it in the pirate way
