Tonight on
The Curse of Oak Island...

Wow, look at that.

This might be the missing link
to treasure in this area.

Never in a million years,

I expected to find
a link to Portugal.

And to the Knights Templar.

That’s astounding. Whoa!

- That can’s going down fast.
- Wow.

We’re right at the vault.

We should be finding
something here pretty quick.

This is it.

Wow, this is a big find.

We caught a piece of this vault.

It’s amazing.

Oh, baby.

There is an
island in the North Atlantic

where people have
been looking for

an incredible treasure
for more than 200 years.

So far, they have
found a stone slab

with strange symbols
carved into it...

man-made workings
that date to medieval times,

and a lead cross whose
origin may be connected

to the Knights Templar.

To date, six men have died

trying to solve the mystery.

And according to legend,
one more will have to die

before the treasure
can be found.

Showtime!

Yeah.

Hammer grab’s coming up.

This is the day.
This is it, Pete.

Our shining moment, hopefully.

As a new
day begins on Oak Island...

- Good morning, gentlemen.
- Good morning, Andrew.

- How we doing?
- Good.

You tell us.

We’re doing real good.

Really good.

The level of excitement

for a major discovery
in the Money Pit

has never been higher for
brothers Rick and Marty Lagin,

their business
partner Craig Tester,

and the members of their team.

Danny’s down to 137 feet

with the can now and
everything’s going fine.

We’re just gonna
keep continuing on,

- same as yesterday.
- Yep.

Once we get
through this little last thing

of the Hedden Shaft,

it should be virgin ground,

hopefully all the way down to

145 range and that’s
where we’re looking for

the vault or the tunnel.

We’ll see what happens.

- Another 20, 30 feet.
- All right.

- I’ll keep you informed.
- All right.

- Thank you.
- You’re welcome.

The team is currently excavating

a 10-foot-wide shaft that
they have dubbed "D.M.T.-2."

Although D.M.T.-2 represents
their fourth and final attempt

this year to recover the
fabled Chappell Vault,

which is believed to lie
burid some 153 feet deep,

it was in this area that notable
treasure hunter Gilbert Hedden

firmly believed
it would be found

when he dug his own
shaft back in 1937.

But most importantly,
it was also here

that the team obtained
evidence of high concentrations

of silver and gold
several months ago

while testing the water in
previously drilled boreholes.

It’s coming out.

As we approach
the area of interest,

my hope is that we find

something definitive indicatig
a subterranean void or vault.

Here we go.

So, we have
to be very meticulous

to confirm that there
might actually be

gold and silver...

Not trace elements,
but actual...

refined gold and
silver in the Money Pit.

Now, that’s
going to be tough walking.

All right. Ready?

Okay, mate.
Let’s get stuck in.

We have got a signal, mate.

Worth digging.

- Just there, yeah.
- We’ll definitely dig that.

- It’s here.
- Oh, yeah?

- More metal, mate.
- Yeah.

A metal fragment?

Found at a depth
of some 136 feet

in the D.M.T.-2 caisson?

These could be washed
off and they might have

traces of gold on them.

- It could.
- This happened before.

- So, if you would hold onto that, mate.
- Yeah.

You want to take that
to the table, please?

- Yeah.
- Cheers.

- Oh, there’s something in there.
- There’s something in there.

Earlier
this year, while conducting

a core-drilling operation
in the Money Pit area...

Yeah, it’s a big
chunk of metal right there.

The team recovered
two metal fragments

that contained
high traces of gold.

So, we got, I think,
more of that same

metal that we found before.

Yeah, maybe.

This shouldn’t be down there.

That’s the big mystery.

- Yeah.
- That is the mystery.

Well, we’ll get a
quick look with the XRF.

- Try to get a date on it.
- Yep.

- All right.
- Okay.

Is it possible

that they have
found more evidence

of precious metals in D.M.T.-?

If so, could it be
just a small sign

of what’s to come
from deeper below?

Are we there yet?

We’re getting close, Marty.

All right. Anything?

That piece just came up.

I don’t know what it is, but
we’re going to have XRF done.

But it looks quite modern.

Mainly, we’re in virgin ground.

- Yes. Yeah.
- Here it comes.

What the hell is that?

- That’s not good.
- Wait. Wait. Wait.

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

Uh-oh.

We may have a problem.
Houston, we’ve got a problem.

The cable’s wrapped around.

Look, Pete. The
cable’s all wrapped up

- in the hammer grab.
- Oh, yeah.

- Dang.
- What’s it look like?

Is it jammed in there?

The anchor chain
went on the other side.

It is a
potentially serious situation

for the representatives from
Irving Equipment Limited,

as a massive support
chain has become

tangled around a stabilizer

atop the 22-and-a-half-ton
hammer grab.

It not only comes
at a critical moment,

as the excavation
is less than 20 feet

from a potentially
historic discovery,

it means that the operation
will have to be halted

until the malfunction
can be remedied.

We’ve spent an
enormous amount of time

and effort digging
in the Money Pit.

And we’re nearly there
and we had to stop,

so that was frustrating.

And we don’t know
when we’re gonna be

able to resume
our treasure hunt.

So... yeah, it’s-it’s a problem.

Eh, I think we’re going
to be on a little break here.

Last time, it took
quite a bit to undo that.

Yeah. It took, what,
a couple hours?

That’s Oak Island for you, mate.

While the team waits to continue

the excavation of
the D.M.T.-2 shaft...

later that morning...

- Here we are, mate.
- Yep.

Metal detection
expert Gary Drayton

and treasure hunter
Michael John arrive on Lot 8,

located on the western
drumlin of Oak Island.

Once you find a large
grouping of potentially good

finds like this, it’s like,
"What are they doing here?"

So this is, like,
a central area.

Yeah. That’s right.
Exactly. Yeah.

In addition to
the Money Pit and the swamp,

Lot 8 has now become
a potentially critical

zone of interest for the team

due to a number of recent
discoveries and developments.

These include a
large metallic anomaly

detected by ground-penetrating
radar some 20 feet deep...

There’s just
a big layer of rocks

right across this whole area.

This looks clearly man-made.

A mysterious stone-paved
feature and large boulder

proving to represent evidence
of previous human activity,

and a semiprecious
garnet gemstone...

A gemstone that 32nd
degree Freemason Scott Clarke

believes could be connected
to the Knights Templar

and one of the most sought-after

missing holy relics
in human history:

the Ark of the Covenant.

- Okay, mate. You ready?
- Yep.

Let’s get stuck in.

Now, while Rick, Marty and Craig

await a government permit

to conduct a
large-scale excavation

to determine just what

the mysterious buried
anomaly could be,

Gary and Michael
are hoping to find

any clues to help verify

if Scott Clarke’s incredible
theory could be true.

- Okay, mate.
- All right.

This is the first target.

Let’s see what this
baby sounds like.

Oh, look! That
sounds fantastic, mate.

- That’s what I like to hear, mate.
- A good signal, isn’t it?

That is the sound of history

- being uncovered in a few minutes.
- All righty.

Oh, here we go.

Ooh, look at that.

That’s nice, mate!

That looks like an
old, oval chain link.

Yeah.

The old chain
links were always oval.

The newer chain links are round.

- And if you notice the irregularity of it...
- Yeah.

- It’s a very crude chain link.
- Yeah.

- Definitely not factory-made.
- Oh, no.

Whenever you need a chain,

that means you’ve
been hauling something.

And you never know.

Maybe there was chain,
like, around a chest

or an old box.

Could Gary Drayton
be correct that this piece of chain

may have once been used
to transport a large chest?

If so, who left it on Lot 8?

And could it be connected
to the large metallic anomaly

that the team hopes to excavae

as soon as they
can obtain a permit?

This is fantastic.

What was a chain doing

- out in the middle of nowhere?
- Yeah.

Because this is
out in the boonies

- even for Oak Island.
- That’s right. Exactly. Yeah.

All right, mate.

Let’s put that flag back in...

and let’s keep rolling, mate.

It’s a good sign that we’re in
an area where people were.

There’s got to be
other stuff in the area.

Oh, no doubt.

The next flag is
down here, mate.

Let’s see what
this one says, eh?

A bit jumpy.

- I suspect this is iron.
- Okay.

But...

- definitely a biggish target.
- Right there?

- Nice and deep.
- Yeah.

- Just there.
- Yeah?

- There we go.
- Here we go.

An excellent sign, mate.

Yeah.

- Still there?
- Yeah.

- There we go.
- Here we go.

Another excellent sign, mate.

Yeah.

- A big, old ox shoe.
- No doubt.

On Lot 8 of Oak Island,

Gary Drayton and Michael
John have just unearthed

a potentially important clue.

Just by looking at it like that,

what I can tell you, mate,
is it’s kind of out of place

just here, out in the
middle of nowhere, mate.

And I don’t believe
this was farmland.

I don’t think so, either, no.

And I’m happy

- that we found an ox shoe in this area.
- Yeah. Me, too.

They were definitely
hauling something here,

because we’ve got the ox shoes,

- we’ve got the oval chain.
- The chain link.

Yes. That’s the
mystery, isn’t it?

Yep.

A large ox shoe?

Discovered near a piece of chain

where the team has also detected

a large, metal anomaly buried
some 20 feet underground?

Wow, this ox shoe was very dep

and it’s in great condition.

Whoever was hauling in this
area was hauling something big,

because this ox shoe was
on a big beast of burden.

Over the past two years,

the Oak Island
team has discovered

numerous ancient stone pathways,

along with ox shoes and
other evidence suggesting

large operations to haul cargo
onto and across the island.

Previously, the most
compellig of these was found

between the triangle-shaped
swamp and the Money Pit.

Have Gary and Michael
now found more evidence

of a similar operation on Lot 8?

And, if so, could it possibly
support Scott Clarke’s theory

that the Knights Templar
hid priceless religious artifacts

on Oak Island centuries ago?

What are those
artifacts doing out here

in the middle of nowhere?

We’re right in the
middle of the island.

I’m telling you, mate, we
are on to something here.

All signs lead to activity.

- Something happened here.
- Yep.

- Yeah.
- Exactly. In this area.

Someone spent a
lot of time out here.

Now, whether they
were passing through

from one shore
to the other shore,

the artifacts tell

- the story of the site.
- Yeah.

This might be the
missing link telling us

that we’re on to
treasure in this area.

Yeah.

Okay, mate.

Let’s keep rolling.

Later that afternoon...

All right.

Today’s the day.

Better find that vault
pretty quick, Craig.

That can is going down fast.

Gold coins are
easy to dig through,

- so...
- Yeah, they really are.

I-it wouldn’t
increase the pressure.

After successfully repairig
the massive hammer grab tool,

Marty Lagina, Craig Tester
and members of the team

continue supervising
the excavation

of the D.M.T.-2 shaft.

- Hey, fellas. -Hey, Andrew.
- Hey, Andrew.

How we doing?

- The man with the data.
- Yeah.

- Where are we?
- We’re looking good.

We’re at 146 with the dig.

- With the dig?
- With the dig.

- 157 with the casing.
- Okay.

All right, well, we
should be finding

something here
pretty quick. This is it.

This is your spot, Craig.

Now that the
10-foot-wide steel-cased shaft

has reached a depth of 157 feet,

it is a critical moment
for the Oak Island team.

Are we approximately in
that zone where we want

- to be right now?
- Yes, about this... -Yeah.

- Beginning with this grab, I’d say.
- Okay.

Although the hammer grab tool

has more than ten feet of spoils

to remove from the caisson,

according to the
historical record,

the seven-foot-high
Chappell Vault

was located at a
depth of 153 feet.

That means the team
could be mere feet

from a historic discovery.

Well, we should be
getting very close now.

This hammer grab
or the next one.

We don’t completely
understand the Money Pit,

even at this late stage.

The Oak Island Treasure Compay

vault resided roughly
at the 150-foot horizon.

And that is the depth
where it should be,

unless it had fallen deeper.

Here it comes.

That’s a full one.

Yeah, that is.

That’s a hell of a lot
of material in there.

Should we jump in, Ian?

Yeah, yeah, let’s go.

Think you better go
help that old man, Pete.

Okay.

What are we into?

- Boulders, I see.
- It’s about time you show up.

We’re right there. We’re
right at the vault zone.

So we should be around
the 148 mark right now.

What do you make...
Make of it? This clay, is it?

Yeah, it’s very, very fine clay.

- Let’s take that over there.
- Yeah.

So, this looks like clay.

Yeah, it’s very,
very, very, very fine.

- Is that embedded?
- Yeah.

Yeah, like the story of
ponded clay or puddled clay.

Puddled clay?

Found at a depth
of nearly 150 feet?

When members of the
Onslow Company excavated

the original Money Pit in 180,

they discovered large
amounts of puddled clay

packed into the oak platforms
descending to the 90-foot level,

acting as a kind of sealant

from the believed
booby-trapped flood tunnels.

This same type of clay was
also reported 93 years later

by treasure hunters Frederick
Blair and William Chappell

just before they drilled
into the fabled vault

at a depth of 153 feet.

Is it possible that the team

has now encountered
evidence of human activity

to protect something
of great value?

If so, just what
might they find next?

I wouldn’t worry too much about
the wood looking real young,

’cause if it was in this
kind of environment,

there’s no oxygen whatsoever.

The treasure vault is very,
very precisely described.

It was puddled clay
through concrete and wood.

It certainly sounds like a vey

properly designed vault.

That’s what we’re looking for.

Here we go. Here’s another one.

Ooh, rainy with a
chance of treasure.

Is that a bunch of wood?

- That is wood.
- That’s a hell of a lot of wood.

Ooh, look at that.

That looks a little
more promising.

Yeah.

Oh, my goodness.

That is exactly what we want.

- That’s a substantial piece.
- Yeah, a post-looking piece.

They are dense.

Yeah, that feels very heavy.

I don’t know about
that one, but...

This is dense.

Let’s let Billy spread it.

Let’s go over there.

Given the fact that

the Oak Island team obtained

high traces of silver and gold

when they conducted
water testing

in this area earlier this yea,

could the vast amounts
of hand-cut wood

mean that they are on the
vere of recovering the treasure

people have been seeking
for more than two centuries?

Axe-cut.
Partially, at least.

Well, maybe that’s sawed off.

- That is axe-cut?
- I don’t know.

Feel the weight of that.

Yeah, that’s why
it’s hard to see this

as contemporary with Hedden.

It’s very deep, too.

- It’s older wood.
- Is it?

- Oh, yeah.
- Well, let’s keep going.

Okay.

There’s a piece of wood.

Piece of wood
on the front there.

A piece of
wood right on top there.

Billy’s got it.

Wow.

Dang, that is a
big piece of wood.

It’s heavy as all get out.

This is wildly out of place.

Wildly out of place.

Yeah.

This is wildly out of place.

That almost looks
like what we’d see

in Smith’s Cove, you know?

The clay is plastered on it.

- I mean, that’s just pure clay.
- Yeah.

It is a
potentially critical moment

in the Money Pit area for Ric,
Marty, Craig and their team.

- I’m going to go wash it off.
- All right.

An important piece of wood.

At a depth of
nearly 150 feet in the D.M.T.-2 shaf,

they have just unearthed
what is believed to be

hand-worked, puddled clay,

as well as evidence
of a possibly ancient

wooden structure.

What’s it mean,
Charles, bringing up

some wood from this depth?

I don’t know. Is that a tunnel?

I don’t know.

I’ll go punch up a tag for it.

Great. I’m gonna go wash it off.

And what makes
these discoveries especially compelling

is that a large amount of
puddled clay was reported

by searchers just
before they drilled into

the so-called "Chappell Vault"

at this approximate
depth back in 1897.

So you see
saw marks on that, Craig?

It looks like it.

- Look how broad those are.
- Yeah.

A motorized circular saw
puts a whole bunch of them.

You know, I mean, I
wonder if this was, like,

- a hand-done thing or something.
- Yeah.

Well, what’s
it doing down there?

Maybe it’s part of the vault.

It could be.

Are we all tired of wood?

I’m tired of wood.

But this is... this is
wood that’s wildly

out of place. It really
shouldn’t be there.

It is also heavy as can be.

I mean, this thing is a
very dense piece of wood.

It’s right at the right depth.

So, the conjecture is we caugt

some little piece of
this so-called vault.

See how the cut’s right there?

- I see several.
- Yeah.

Well, it’s wildly out of place.

Yeah, I know.
Doesn’t make sense.

Okay, we’ll get
Charles to mark that up.

Excellent.

As the excavation continues

in the Money Pit area...

- Hey, Mike.
- Hey, Steve. How are you, man?

- How you doing?
- I’m good, brother.

Just 200 feet to the northeast,

near Borehole 10-X,

Steve Guptill joins
Michael John to carefully sift

through the spoils that were
just removed from D.M.T.-2.

We have a very
interesting and significant

data that happens in and around

- the 150-foot mark.
- Yeah.

A few feet above that
and 25 feet below that is

the interesting area that
could be treasure vault location.

- Uh-huh.
- So,

potentially, there
could be a very

- significant find in this one.
- Okay.

As always,
I’ll keep my eyes peeled.

D.M.T. is close to a depth
where we’re keenly interested

in what it might show and so
we have a lot of anticipation.

And of course, every bucket,
you’re always looking for

a piece of jewelry, a coin,

and we aren’t gonna miss it.

So, we need to look closely
through the spoils piles.

- What is that?
- What you got?

Well, I think it’s just a
rock or a piece of wood.

But it almost
looks like a fossil.

Yes.

Oh.

- Is this coal?
- Oh, wow.

Feels like it, yeah.

A lot of coal, so we know
people were down there.

Exactly. That’s right. Yeah.

Dating
back at least four centuries,

mining operations across Euroe

utilized the method of burning
charcoal in underground furnaces

in order to provide
oxygen for the workers.

In 1804, when the Onslow
Company first excavated the original

Money Pit down
to the 90-foot level,

they not only encountered
puddled clay at various levels

but also charcoal.

It breaks really easy.

Is it possible that
Steve Guptill and Michael John

have just found more evidence

of original workings
that were conducted

in order to hide the
legendary Oak Island treasure?

Well, if that says
anything, we know people

were in this area.
So, that makes

the next couple table
loads more interesting.

- Yeah, that’s right.
- Yeah.

What is this?
Look at this. That’s interesting.

- What you got there?
- Does that look like cement to you?

Or concrete? What is that?

There’s something
wound between...

It’s not cement, I don’t think.

But I don’t know.

Yeah. It is cement.

Oh, wow.
Cement’s important in

the search, because
cement itself often goes back

- to a treasure chamber, a treasure vault.
- Oh.

Cement?

The very substance
reportedly encasing

the seven-foot-tall
Chappell Vault?

As the clues keep adding
up for the Oak Island team,

could that mean the
legendary treasure

is finally within their reach?

Good eye, Steve. You
know what I’m going to do?

- I’m going to bag it and tag it.
- Sounds good.

- Yeah.
- Yeah, we should get that examined.

For sure.

There it goes. It’s on.

Back at the Money Pit,

the excavation of
the D.M.T.-2 shaft

has now surpassed
a depth of 153 feet,

where the Chappell
Vault was reported to have

been encountered
nearly 125 years ago.

We’re ready.

With all the clues hinting

that a major
discovery is imminent,

the question now becomes

just how much
deeper could it be?

All right, Danny.
What’s the good news?

Hey. All right.

What are the numbers, brother?

We got, uh, we just put
on our five-foot piece.

That makes it 191, total casing.

- The casing is in the ground 174.
- Okay.

Did you want a measurement

of the water or do
you want us to go?

No.

- Just go? All right.
- Just go.

- Thank you.
- Thanks, Danny.

- Ready, Pete?
- Yep. Ready.

Ooh-whee! Smoking.

- It’s going right down.
- It is?

Wow.

See how fast that’s going down?

Geez.

That’s the fastest
I’ve ever seen

a can go down.

Holy smokes!

That thing went down
six feet, probably?

Ten.

You can actually
watch it go down.

- Yeah. It’s flying down.
- Yeah.

It is amazing.

A void has to be below this.

Yeah.

A void has to be below this.

It’s flying down.

You can actually
watch it go down.

In the Money Pit area,

at a depth of some 174 feet,

the D.M.T.-2 shaft

has suddenly begun to
rapidly sink into the ground.

I don’t know if
anybody witnessed that,

but we just broke a record.

For going down that
fast for that size of shaft.

That is something
I’ve never seen before.

Anything weird you can
think of happens here.

There’s some void,
some reason to believe

that there is an
open area at depth.

That might indicate
a subterranean vault.

It also could be very natural.

And I don’t think
we’ll ever be able

to understand what that is

unless we find something
down there that is man-made.

Look at that hammer grab.

Wow.

- It’s just soup.
- Yep.

At this point, we’re
not much farther to bedrock.

Yeah.

It looks like
the vault’s not there.

It’s just not.

That was possibly the last grab.

Let’s check it out.

Nothing special.

This is shocking, mate.

- Nothing?
- Nope.

Four cans, no results.

That’s all she wrote.

Are we done?
Is that the last grab?

We’re in bedrock.

Yeah, we are.

We’re
definitely there with the dig.

The fourth and last
can of the season.

We’re as far down as we can
get. What’s your thoughts? Yeah.

Yeah. You know, I’m
obviously disappointed

that we didn’t hit something
significantly better.

It is a crushing
disappointment for Rick,

Marty, Craig and the team.

After recovering numerous
pieces of evidence

suggesting that they might
hae finally pinpointed the locatin

of the fabled Chappell Vault,
they have reached a dead end

in the form of bedrock
at a depth of 183 feet.

Could that mean they
were actually digging

in the wrong location?

Or could the treasure
cache have fallen somewhere

off to the side in
the mysterious void?

Was the hole a success?

I mean, we hoped
to get the vault.

- Absolutely.
- And we didn’t. Um...

but yet more anomalies,
highly anomalous stuff,

needs to be tested.
Maybe some more clues.

When we get
through that vault area

and it’s not there,
it’s disappointing.

So, at this point,
we’ve just accepted it.

We can’t stop. We have to
go as long as we possibly can

and figure this out as
much as we can this year.

We’ve completed the final can

and it’s like a
broken record, right?

It keeps replaying, you know?

Unsuccessful.
Unsuccessful. Unsuccessful.

So, I don’t know
where we go from here.

But you mustn’t be deterred

and we each have to
step back and assess

for ourselves what are our
thoughts moving forward.

Keep moving forward.

It’s the only way
we’re going to solve it.

So, let’s do that. Don’t quit.

I like your spirit, hombre.

Later that evening...

So, guys. A unique
opportunity has presented itself.

Rick, Marty and Craig
gathr in the war room

with members of their team
to strategize the few remainig

weeks they have left before
they will have to suspend

search activities for the
remainder of the year.

I know that we’ve all been
a bit troubled by the fact

that the four cans...
To date, at least...

Have not yielded much.

There may be an
opportunity here for

a possible fifth can location.

Everyone can weigh in, but
I think we should possibly,

you know, take
advantage of this.

Yep.

Oh, that’s without
question, Rick.

I didn’t know we
could fit that in.

I mean, I’m a
proponent of digging

whenever we can dig.

So, yes, I’ve spoken with Irving

and they’ve confirmed
that it is indeed possible

and we have a little
bit of wiggle room there.

I mean, that’s a great
idea if we can do it.

Yeah, but... do we have a good
idea of where we want to go?

- Maybe close to C-1.
- Yep.

My thought would be
to go up in that area,

the C-1 cluster, to
try to confirm that it is

indeed possibly the
original Money Pit.

- Yep.
- C-1 has

the highest amounts
of gold and silver

of any other drill
hole that we have.

So why not continue
to search around there?

Yeah.

Although the
team has already excavated

two ten-foot-diameter
shafts in the C-1 Cluster

without making a
breakthrough discovery...

We’re going to mix between
2017 and 2020 holes.

- Right.
- Earlier this year...

- Let’s hope.
- While conducting water testing

in the existing boreholes
around the C-1 shaft,

the team obtained high
readins for silver and gold.

Additional
core-drilling in the area

then yielded fragments
of metal containing gold,

as well as evidence of
man-made tunnels that could date

to as early as 1488 at a
depth of nearly 90 feet.

Is it possible that digging oe
more shaft in the C-1 cluster

will solve the Oak
Island mystery?

So, I’ve calculated
the positions of

TF-1 to the west
and EC-1 to the east.

But I’ve left enough room
so we can go to the north.

"Yes, let’s do it,"
is what I would say.

Put it a foot off of EC-1.

- Right there?
- There you go.

- Right there?
- Yep.

Well, if we’re
going to put it there,

I guess we’re pretty near
gonna be centered on B-4.

All right. Well,
we’re kind of burning

the very minutes we’re
talking about to dig, so Scott,

how about you name this one?

Well, if we’re going
to position there,

if we roll that closer to EC-1,

B-4 is going to be basically
the center of that caisson.

So, B-4,

call it B-4C for B-4 caisson.

So it’s the hole we dug just

before we found the treasure,
is that what you’re saying?

Just before. That’s right.

Before we see the treasure.

- There we go.
- Before we see the treasure.

- I love it.
- Works for me. Yeah.

- Now, make it so.
- Make it so.

- Okay, gentlemen.
- All right. Very good.

Excellent.
Thank you very much.

- Ready or what?
- Yep. This is it.

Last can of the year, mate.

- It’s in a great location, just north of C-1, mate.
- Yep.

That area, to me, was
one of the most interesting

areas of the whole campaign.

They said it couldn’t be
done, but here we are.

A new day begins on Oak Island,

and also with it,
a renewal of hope

for Rick, Marty,
Craig and their team

as they begin
excavating the B-4C shaft

in search of the fabled
Money Pit treasure vault.

How’s that?

Perfect.

Okay.

Okay, ready? Bring it up.

We’re approaching
the end of the year.

Mother Nature’s closing in.

But as I have said before,

we’re not going to give up.

It ain’t over till
it’s over, mate.

We’re positive that there
is treasure down there.

I feel good about this caisson.

As the excavation
of the B-4C shaft gets underway...

later that morning...

Hi, guys.

Hey, guys.

Rick, Marty and Craig

have assembled
members of the team

in the war room for a meeting

via video conference
with their associate

and Oak Island
researcher Corjan Mol.

Hi, everyone. Thank
you for having me.

Also joining
the team is Judi Rudebusch,

the research partner
of the late author

and Oak Island
theorist Zena Halpern.

Doug, as you are
well aware... and Judi...

Are continuing to
make connections

as far as a possible
Portuguese connection,

but Doug in particular
has reached out to Corjan,

so I’m going to
turn it over to Doug

and I think we’re going to learn

some very
interesting facts today.

So, Doug, if you
want to take over...

Yeah, well, I guess
what I’m excited about

is that we’ve got
some scientific reason

to look towards Portugal,

because of the dating
we’ve attained on objects

both in the swamp
and the Money Pit.

We have historic reasons
now to look towards Portugal.

Over the past two years,

in addition to finding
compelling evidence

that vast quantities
of precious metals

lie buried deep
in the Money Pit,

the team has also unearthed
numerous structures

and artifacts suggesting that
someone of Portuguese origin

visited Oak Island as
much as five centuries ago.

These discoveries include a
fragment of a ship’s cannon

found on Lot 4,

two pieces of stone
shot, one of which was

recovered from the Money Pit,

and the massive stone
road or ship’s wharf

in the triangle-shaped swamp.

In talking with Corjan,
he has a very interesting

theoretical reason
why Portugal may

play an important role,
so I think you’re going

to be really intrigued to
hear what he has to say.

I’m looking forward to it.

Corjan, I’m going
to turn it over to you.

Okay, thanks.

I wanted to start with
the, u, the first image here.

I believe your team
discovered a few

Portuguese things on Oak Island.

Portugal has an incredible
Knights Templar history.

I’m sure you are aware

that the Order of
the Knights Templar

was dissolved in 1312

in every country in
Europe but Portugal.

In 1307, the arrest
warrant went out,

first all across France
and later all across Europe.

They were arrested,

sometimes they were
executed and imprisoned.

Between the
12th and early 14th centuries,

the military order of monks
known as the Knights Templar

accumulated a vast treasure

in the Holy Land
during the Crusades.

Some researchers believe

this treasure included
priceless religious artifacts

such as the Holy Grail,

the golden menorah
from Solomon’s Temple

and the Ark of the Covenant.

However, when the
order was disbanded

by King Philip IV
of France in 1307,

it has been suggested that
a number of Templar Knights

fled with their vast
treasures to Scotland

before taking
them to Oak Island.

Although little of the
Templars’ true history

is known following their
persecution in France,

it is well established
that a new sect

would soon rise
again in Portugal.

Many Templars fled
from Spain, from France

and maybe other
countries to Portugal,

because they were
under protection

of the Portuguese king.

King Dinis, who restarted
the Knights Templar

as Order of Christ in 1319,

changed their logo.

He kept sort of the same cross

and put a white
cross on top of it,

which became the emblem
for the Order of Christ.

But under the hood, this was
exactly the same brotherhood.

And what you see in Portugal
is that the Order of Christ

became very much involved
in the Portuguese explorations

and discoveries
across the globe.

They sailed on their
caravels, their man-o’-wars

with the familiar red
crosses all across the sea.

What they did on their
journes was make maps.

If you want to have good

15th, 16th-century maps,
you need to go to Portugal.

The one you see here
is the Cantino map.

This is from 1502.

And you can see that already

they have Newfoundland here,

which is called Terra
del Rey de Portugal.

And Nova Scotia
is on the map here.

So, if you want to think
about the Templar theory,

when the Templars were
suppressed in France in 1307,

if a group of Templars
managed to escape from France

with a treasure during that
suppression, some believe

they brought it here to
the New World somewhere.

So, the Portuguese
Order of Christ...

They may have been in search

of that Templar
treasure themselves.

The Portuguese Order of Christ...
They may have been in search of

that Templar
treasure themselves.

Yeah. For sure.

But also, you know,
there’s another reason

I’m interested in Portugal.

A lot of Templar
archives in France,

you know, in Italy, in
England, were destroyed.

They were not
destroyed in Portugal.

In the war
room, theorist Corjan Mol

is presenting
research suggesting

that clues which
could help solve

the 227-year-old
Oak Island mystery

may be located in Portugal.

There’s some areas in
Portugal that I think have

a lot of Templar archives

and would give
us a lot of reasons

to put boots on the ground

and check it out for ourselves.

One place is the
Convento de Christo,

the Convent of Christ in Toma,

which became the Knights
Templar’s successors,

the Order of
Christ, head office.

I believe, you know,

we could find a ton
of information there.

And we also looked
at this church.

It’s called Fonte Arcada.

This is a very
interesting place.

Fonte Arcada was the earliest
Knights Templar commandery

in Portugal; it’s
very well preserved.

I think it would be very, very

interesting and useful
to go to these places,

see if there’s any inscriptions

or documents about
Templar explorations

that can build a bridge
back to Oak Island.

That would be astounding.

- Yeah.
- Doesn’t sound so bad.

It’s certainly interesting.

I think what I found
most compelling

about Corjan’s presentation is

he makes a very
plausible connection

between the Knights Templar

and Portugal during
the Age of Exploration.

You have this incredible
Portuguese history

of navigational skillset
that allowed them to

visit the New World
probably before anyone else.

It’s incredibly invigorating,

because we have
a tangible possibility

that suggests a who
and maybe a why.

I think there’s enough here.

If we have the time
and the resources,

I think we should
go on an expedition.

You won’t get an argument
from me, not on that.

All in favor, say "aye."

Aye.

Aye.

Corjan, would you agree

that it’s valuable to the point

where you might be
willing to assist us?

Yeah. I think that’s a
fantastic opportunity.

So, yes, please.

So, here’s a thing too, Rick.

While you’re gone, I’m
going to stay on the island

and dig and drill
all over the place.

Is anybody against that?

I have high hopes for it.

You know, and with
everyone’s enthusiasm,

I think... I think we
may just come back

with something that’ll
be an eye-opener.

- Yes.
- Okay.

Well, I think we’re
all in agreement.

Uh, Corjan, thank you
for the presentation.

Thank you for the
offer of assistance.

- Thank you.
- Okay.

- Thanks.
- Take care, guys.

Thank you.

Will a year that began

with new scientific evidence

of a vast treasure buried
deep in the Money Pit

soon culminate
with the revelation

of Oak Island’s
ultimate secrets?

Might Rick, Marty, Craig
and the team not only discover

what that
long-sought-after treasure is

but also answer the
questions that have persisted

for 227 years?

Who put it there?

When? And why?

And, finally, what
might they unearth

about the true history
of North America?

Next time on The
Curse of Oak Island...

- Welcome to Portugal.
- Thank you.

If there is a
Portuguese connection

to the construction of
the road in the swamp,

- maybe this is the blueprint.
- Yeah.

That’s exactly what
we have on Oak Island.

- Wow!
- Oh, man.

Oh, my God. That’s brilliant!

- All right!
- That’s a trophy find, mate.

The 90 Foot Stone definitely has

- this symbol on it.
- Oh, wow.

It looks the spitting image.

- Yeah.
- It’s perfect.

- You’re looking right into it.
- Whoa!

- It’s not English?
- No.

- Portuguese?
- Yeah.

That is amazing.
