NARRATOR: Tonight, on
the Curse of Oak Island...

JACK:
We haven't reached the edge yet.

It's quite a massive structure.

This could fit in
with Zena's map.

This could be the hatch.

GARY:
Come on, be something good.

Ooh... that's pretty big.

- Oh, that is sweet.
- JACK: Whoa!

CHRIS:
Isotopically,

it looks very similar to
the cross.

- No way!
- That's brilliant.

- SCOTT: Oh, wow.
- There's something there.

It could possibly be an
original depositor tunnel.

- MARTY: You've done did it.
- I feel good now.

NARRATOR: 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.

- ROGER: Hey, how's it going, guys?
- SCOTT: Hey, good, Roger.

- How're you doing?
- CHARLES: Hey, Roger.

Not bad. Not bad.
I'm just having a look

and the guys are setting up.

He's getting ready and
we're gonna start drilling away.

Yeah. Great.

NARRATOR: Every new
morning on Oak Island

brings renewed
optimism for brothers Rick

and Marty Lagina,
and their team,

that they will make a historic
and valuable discovery.

Guess I'd keep
my fingers crossed

that we're gonna
encounter something.

Yeah.

NARRATOR: However,
as the fast-approaching

North Atlantic winter
will soon force them to

halt their operations
until next spring,

they are now in a
race against time to find

whatever may lie
below the Garden Shaft

in the Money Pit area,

and hopefully solve a
228-year-old treasure mystery.

- We're about 90 feet right now...
- CHARLES: Okay.

- SCOTT: Excellent.
- With the casing.

So we're gonna go
with that casing bit.

- We're gonna keep pumping away in there.
- Yeah.

If we're lucky, in the
next four or five feet,

we're gonna punch
through something.

If you have a tunnel running

underneath there, I mean...

and that tunnel is
potentially old, I mean,

it could possibly be, you know,
an original depositor tunnel.

Yeah.

NARRATOR: Although
high-trace evidence of gold was

detected in both water
and wood samples

that were taken while
the early 18th century shaft

was being reconstructed
over the past few months,

now that it has been
completed at a depth

of nearly 82 feet,
it did not contain

the riches that people have
been looking for since 1795.

- Ready to go.
- Fire it up.

NARRATOR: However, it may
be sitting above a tunnel that does...

Which the team discovered
at a depth of some 95 feet

while drilling nearby in
the so-called Baby Blob.

It is in this zone where
they have obtained

the highest traces
of gold and silver yet

in their entire search for the
fabled Oak Island treasure.

Where we're set up is,
is a very high probability

- that we're gonna hit something. I mean...
- Yep.

All projections that we can
come up with, you know,

really show it needs to run
under the corner of that shaft.

That gives us a good inclination
that there's something there.

CHARLES: Yeah.

NARRATOR: Now,
representatives from

Dumas Contracting Limited

are conducting a
probe drilling operation

from the bottom of
the Garden Shaft,

in the hopes of confirming
that the tunnel is there,

and to reach whatever
it may contain.

MARTY: We think
there's a tunnel under there

and this tunnel is especially

enigmatic because
it appears to have

dissolved metals
underneath the Garden Shaft.

The tunnel... we're hoping...
Leads to an offset chamber,

which is another
name for a vault.

That's one very exciting
and interesting thing.

We said it from day one,

- "Today's the day."
- SCOTT: Today's the day.

(all laughing)

SCOTT: All right. Well,
thanks for your time.

If anything else comes
up, you've got my number.

- Call me.
- ROGER: Absolutely.

- SCOTT: Thanks.
- ROGER: Thank you.

NARRATOR: While the probe
drilling operation gets underway

in the Garden Shaft...

- MARTY: Hello, guys.
- OTHERS: Hey, guys.

- Benvenuti.
- RICK: Benvenuti.

NARRATOR: Rick and
Marty Lagina gather with

members of the
team in the war room

to discuss the incredible
journey that Rick, his nephews

Alex and Peter,

and Doug Crowell just made
to various locations in Italy.

MARTY: Okay. So we have
our team back from Italy.

We're all eager
to hear, you know,

what all happened over there.

RICK: Well, it was a
wonderful experience

and we learned a lot regarding

our pursuit of answers
here on Oak Island.

ALEX: Yeah, I think
it was, like, broadly

applicable to everything
that we're doing here.

- RICK: It's huge.
- ALEX: Wow. It keeps going.

NARRATOR: Over
the last two weeks,

researcher Emiliano
Sacchetti led Rick and the team

to numerous sites
that were known

to have served as
strongholds for members

of the medieval order
of the Knights Templar.

Some also believe
that the Templars used

these strongholds to hide

sacred religious treasures
before smuggling them

to the New World between
the 12th and 14th centuries.

- ALEX: Hey, Rick.
- RICK: Hmm?

- Check this out.
- PETER: That's cool.

ALEX: We have seen
this symbol before

- on Oak Island.
- RICK: H+O Stone.

PETER: Yeah.

NARRATOR: In addition to seeing

a number of Templar carvings

that have also been found

in the past on Oak Island...

- RICK: Wow.
- EMILIANO: We have the left arm,

the right arm...

NARRATOR: they
toured a cave system

in the ancient town of Camerano

that, incredibly,
matched the design of

the 14th century lead
cross that was unearthed

at Smith's Cove back in 2017.

PETER: Hey, guys.
Come take a look at this.

NARRATOR: However,

perhaps the most profound
discovery that they made

was at the Santa
Maria Nuova church

in the town of Viterbo.

- Yeah.
- Right there.

NARRATOR: There, Alex
noticed symbols on a pillar

that he believed could
have a direct connection

to a mysterious, carved boulder

that was discovered on
Oak Island's northern shore

in the 1920s... the
so-called H+O Stone.

ALEX: This was just
a theory I came up with

while we were there.

So we saw an inscription in
the church that we were in.

"HIC," H-I-C, which
is Latin for "here."

But I realized if you start with

H... I... C...

- here.
- That means here.

And then you do this...

♪ ♪

you have the H+O Stone.

Yep.

So then you have
here is "Templar gold."

- Well, that's pretty cool.
- (chuckling): Exactly.

NARRATOR: Could
Alex Lagina be correct

that the carvings
found on the H+O Stone

may actually suggest
a sacred treasure

connected to the Knights
Templar is buried on Oak Island?

If so, could it possibly explain
the high-trace evidence of

silver and gold that has been
detected in the Money Pit area?

When I'm by myself and
think about this Templar theory,

everything in my body,

everything in my
mind resists it.

It just seems so outlandish,

and yet... we have
very ancient things here.

You can't say that theory
seems ridiculous or outlandish

and then ignore evidence
that it could actually be real.

RICK: To sum it up,

this is quite a puzzle.

It just got a little
bit more interesting

and a little more complicated.

And so we all need to put
our noses to the grindstone

and try to figure
out the importance of

what today's discussion
might mean for the future.

MARTY: Okay.

Great download from Italy.

All things Italian
are always welcome,

but this is substantive.

We can all digest it
while we're out working.

Let's go.

NARRATOR: Following
their meeting in the war room...

- SCOTT: Hey, Roger.
- ROGER: Hey, Scott.

So that next rod that
they're gonna push through,

- that'll bring us to 95 feet.
- Gonna hit our tunnel.

Yeah. Oh, before that.

We're actually half a rod

- and we're gonna hit the tunnel.
- That's what we want.

NARRATOR: while Scott
Barlow returns to the Money Pit

to check on the progress

of the probe drilling
operation in the Garden Shaft...

RICK: Wow.

- Impressive, huh?
- Yup.

- It looks a lot different than before we left.
- ALEX: Mm-hmm.

It's impressive.

NARRATOR: Rick Lagina joins

other members of the team

at the triangle-shaped
swamp for his first look

at the mysterious stone ramp

that was fully unearthed
two weeks ago.

A ramp which connects the vast,
800-year-old stone paved area

to a cobblestone pathway that
leads out of the brackish bog

and to somewhere on the island.

ALEX: Is any of this
the original paved area

that we uncovered first?

BILLY: Uh, you see the
plastic pipe of the hydro vac?

- ALEX: Yeah.
- BILLY: We're right on the edge there.

So, this is kind of
continuing the paved area?

It seems like they
connect, yeah.

Dr. Spooner, what do you think?

IAN: Well, there's no doubt.

This ramp, especially when
you get about halfway down it,

it has similar characteristics

with the cobble path,

in terms of stone
size, that kind of thing,

that's definitive, right?

And we did find

underneath those rocks,
organic matter, twigs...

So we've got material
to get some ages.

RICK: I think the ramp
looks quite spectacular.

The ramp obviously needs to be

thoroughly investigated
to try to understand

what does the ramp signify
in terms of the relationships

between the paved area
and the so-called stone path,

and where does
that stone path lead.

At least one of the
things we know, that it's...

some sort of man-made construct,

the "why" of which we
are yet to understand.

- MARTY: (chuckles) As usual.
- Mm-hmm.

- Yeah.
- MARTY: It's classic Oak Island.

It's just, you know,
intriguing and unanswerable.

the mysterious stone ramp

in the Oak Island
swamp, Rick, Marty,

and other members of the team

have just been
informed that the tunnel

believed to run below
the Garden Shaft

in the Money Pit area
may have just been found.

There's cause for
celebration up here,

Well, that's pretty cool.

We'll be up in a moment.

RICK: The Garden
Shaft project is

the biggest project of the year.

- All the hard work has finally paid off.
- Yeah.

RICK: Well, we have evidence.

Strong evidence of high gold
values in the Garden Shaft.

- How solid is it?
- Oh, it's solid.

RICK: And yet, we
hadn't found treasure.

I think we were all
a bit deflated by that.

But hope springs eternal,
and so when Scott iterates that

there's something has
developed as part of the activities,

of course you're excited.

You're interested.

There is some sort of
structure underneath the shaft.

I figured you'd be down there
in that tunnel by now, huh?

ROGER: Hey!
How's it going, guys?

- Roger.
- Hey.

- What happened?
- We're waiting for you guys to come.

- Yeah.
- To bask in all the excitement here.

- ROGER: Come on in.
- MARTY: You've done did it, didn't you?

I feel good now.

MARTY: What is the latest?
Bring us up to speed, Roger.

So we sent a probe rod down,

they probed down in the hole

and you can tell.

He said, "Ooh,
that's not a rock.

That sounds like wood."

SCOTT: And we
have a sewer camera

and we're gonna try and
put a sewer camera down

and see if we can get eyes
on the wood, just to give

another way to verify
that it is the wood.

MARTY: You have a
casing there, don't you?

Or just hole? Is it just hole?

Just hole. Just hole. No casing.

You could run casing
right now though.

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

MARTY: I think
we should do that.

I'm fine with that.

NARRATOR: In order to
investigate the believed tunnel

with a high-definition camera,

the team from Dumas
will now insert PVC tubing

into the drill hole
in order to ensure

that it does not collapse.

Come. Just hold there for a sec.

SCOTT: It's gonna take us a little
bit of time to get set up anyways

to bore through
there, so, I mean,

that could be time
to put the casing in.

- Let's do it.
- Let's do it.

MARTY: Let's do it. Let's go.

ROGER: Sounds good to me.

NARRATOR: As the team
prepares to investigate

the possible tunnel
beneath the Garden Shaft...

JACK: Hey... there's a
little piece of charcoal.

I'll collect that.

NARRATOR: Jack
Begley joins archaeologist

Laird Niven on Lot 5, located
on the western side of the island.

- In here.
- Okay.

NARRATOR: They
are searching for clues

that might help
determine the origin

of the circular
stone structure...

A structure that is not
only located near the area

where the team recently found
a 1,600-year-old Roman coin,

as well as a possible
lead barter token,

but also features a
13-foot diameter...

Ooh. Look at this, Laird.

Which matches the description
of the original Money Pit

when it was discovered in 1795.

This looks to be some pottery
and it's got that white stuff.

That's nice. That's a nice...

I think we call this a
fine, red earthenware.

Yeah. I thought
it looked unique.

What time period?

So this would have been going

out of style in the
1750s possibly.

Really?

NARRATOR: Redware,
which is a kind of

earthenware pottery
composed of fired clay,

was widely used throughout
Europe and North America

between the 17th
and 18th centuries.

But still, it's still pointing to
something early going on.

JACK: Something happening here

- in the middle 1700s.
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

NARRATOR: If this pottery
predates the discovery

of the Money Pit,
could it offer evidence

that this stone
feature does as well?

That's really neat.

Great.

Yeah, I thought it looked

much different from
the rest of the pottery

that I've seen so far.

♪ ♪

Oh, this is interesting, Jack.

What is it?

This is way down

in this loose soil.

But it looks like it's exactly
the same as you found.

- Oh, like from the same vessel?
- Yeah.

But why, why the change
in elevation for deposit?

Well, that would suggest
that this whole thing

was deposited at the same time.

I think it was built,

it was occupied,

then it was abandoned,

filled in with rocks,
but filled in with rocks

- and this stuff.
- Okay.

This is getting a
lot more interesting.

I thought we were
done for the season,

but I think we have to

expand that way.

This feature, we
don't know who did it.

We don't know when they did it.

And we don't know
why they did it.

The really exciting
thing for us is that

we're getting examples of

some early pottery on Lot 5,

which means that
there's a possibility

that this is one of the
earliest occupations

on the island.

I feel like something like
this, it'd make more sense

- over by the Money Pit.
- Yeah.

We need to get
an answer this year.

NARRATOR: As the
investigation on Lot 5 continues...

SCOTT: Camera's on its way.

NARRATOR: back
in the Money Pit area...

All right.

Rick, Marty and other
members of the team

are attempting to
investigate the potential tunnel

located at a depth
of some 91 feet

below the Garden Shaft.

I think he's got it.

- Have you got it there, Roger?
- ROGER: Yeah. 10-4.

NARRATOR: A
tunnel that is believed

to lead directly
toward the Baby Blob

or possible treasure zone.

Here we go.

Copy that.

RICK: It seems like it's
100 miles down there.

Keep going,

just very slowly.

ROGER: Keep going very slowly.

SCOTT: Coming up on the bottom.

I think you can tell
him to stop pretty quick.

Well...

RICK: It doesn't look like wood.

SCOTT: It's just some clay.

It's like mud.

Stop there.

ROGER: Whoa.

Is that wood there?

Right in there? It looks
like wood right there.

MARTY: We can see
some wood. That's good.

This is becoming
extremely frustrating

because we could
literally be inches,

literally inches

away from some
real definitive data

that could be very
helpful to our quest.

- We got to get through that.
- Yeah.

Actually, I do like the idea
of grinding into the wood.

- Do you just want to call it?
- Yeah. Grind that pipe.

NARRATOR: Despite the sediment

and clay in the hole,
the fact that the team

has now found visual evidence

of a possible wooden structure

could mean that they may
very well have encountered

a man-made tunnel.

- Let's pull out.
- RODNEY: Okay.

Up with the camera.

NARRATOR: Now,
with less than two weeks

before the team will have to

halt search operations
due to the onset of winter,

they must do what they
can in order to find out

what it may contain.

RICK: There is a suspicion
that there's a tunnel

beneath the Garden Shaft.

Right now, we know there are

anomalously high gold values
on the wood outside of the shaft.

They need to drill into
the ceiling of the tunnel

and see whether or
not there's treasure

in close proximity
and hopefully find it.

I think we'll...
we'll urethane it

and then we'll
resort to drilling.

Okay, these guys are lined out.

We're gonna urethane it

to hold it in place.

If we can get
those threads to bite

a little bit, that should help.

And then we'll
be back to drilling.

Sounds good.

NARRATOR: To
prepare for the next phase

of the drilling operation

the team will spend the
next two days coating the hole

with urethane, a
crystalline compound

that will allow the drill
bit to gain better traction

and hopefully penetrate
the possible wooden tunnel.

Let's go, Rick.

We've got other
things to do, bud.

- CHARLES: Catch you later.
- RICK: See you.

NARRATOR: As a new
day begins on Oak Island...

MARTY: Okay, archaeologists...

- (laughs)
- What've you got?

Well... (sighs)

So I thought

- we were wrapping up.
- Uh-huh.

I thought we were done.

NARRATOR:
Rick, Marty and Alex

arrive on Lot 5

where archaeologist Laird Niven

and Jack Begley
continue searching for

clues inside the mysterious,
circular stone formation.

The rocks came down
to a hard-packed level.

And I went through that and
now I'm in a very loose soil,

still with artifacts in it.

ALEX: What the heck?

And you're not to
the bottom of it yet?

I'm not to the bottom of it.

The issue is we think
the edge is four feet out.

Sounds to me like the top
feature's not just an apron...

- It's the limits of quite a massive structure.
- Yeah.

What's driving me crazy is
there has to be an edge to it.

There just has to be.

So if the edge is
four feet that way

and if you extrapolate around,

- that's a big excavation.
- Yes, it is.

If you do it big enough,
if you dig a trench

six feet wide and
just fill it with rubble,

you do have a good foundation.

- Sure.
- A lot of stuff was built that way.

LAIRD: Yeah. Yeah, you just cap.

- That's the way castles were built.
- MARTY: Exactly.

It's a fast way to make

- a very stable foundation.
- Yeah.

LAIRD: But it looks
a little too jumbled

for a foundation.

JACK: It could go deeper.

This could fit in
with Zena's map.

This could be the hatch.

It's close to the
approximate location

that we're looking
for the hatch.

ZENA: When I found the
map, which is dated 1347,

I began to put pieces together.

NARRATOR: In 2016,

the late author and
researcher Zena Halpern

presented the
team with a reported

14th century map of Oak
Island that she believed

to have been created by
members of the Knights Templar.

Numerous familiar locations
were labeled on the document

in French, including what
appeared to be the Money Pit,

the stone triangle
and the swamp.

However, for the
past several years,

the team has been
searching for a site

noted on the western
side of the island,

which was labeled as
"The Hole Under the Hatch,"

believing it may refer to
a shaft or tunnel entrance.

Could Jack be correct

that the circular stone
structure on Lot 5,

which matches the diameter
of the original Money Pit

may very well be The
Hole Under the Hatch?

I believe in Zena
Halpern's work.

I believe that the
map represents

some features on the island.

Is it possible that this
might be the hatch?

There are a lot of
possibilities on this island.

Who knows what we might find

down at the bottom of that
and where it might lead to?

So, orders, Laird?

You're in charge, what
do you want us to do?

We can take the
soils out by hand.

- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah.

But those rocks down below,

we'll need some mechanical help.

MARTY (chuckling): Well...

-(Laird laughs) -...that's
music to my ears.

- It's interesting enough to continue.
- It is.

You know, you can
speculate all day long.

Let's just get after it

- and get it done.
- LAIRD: Yeah.

RICK: Let's keep going.

NARRATOR: As Laird Niven
continues his investigation on Lot 5...

MARTY: Hello, gentlemen.

ALL: Hey, guys.

- Hey, guys.
- Hello.

NARRATOR: Rick, Marty,

and other members of the team

have gathered in the war room

to meet via video conference

with Craig Tester,

along with Dr. Chris McFarlane,

a professor of geochemistry at
the University of New Brunswick.

Okay. So, see this
little item right here

in front of us, folks?

We've showed this
thing to so many people.

NARRATOR: Dr. McFarlane

has just completed
a scientific analysis

on the lead barter token,

which was found
earlier this year on Lot 5

near the mysterious,
circular stone feature.

Dr. McFarlane, I know
you did ablation on this.

Uh, yeah.

NARRATOR: Laser ablation is the
process of removing microscopic samples

from the surface
of a lead artifact

using a high-powered laser.

These samples are then analyzed

to identify the exact isotope
values contained in the lead,

which can then help determine

both the time period
and geographic region

that the artifact
originated from.

This was a pretty easy object
to ablate because it was flat,

you know, which is
good, but I shouldn't say

it was easy to analyze because

it has a very thick,
altered crust on it.

It's been down there a while,
I would say, without a doubt.

When you say a
while, what is that?

- Can you ballpark?
- You know, not tens of years.

You know, hundreds of
years would be my guess.

You know? But the
biggest result is that

isotopically, it looks
very similar to...

the cross.

No way!

GARY: That's brilliant!

NARRATOR: In the war room,

geochemist Dr. Chris McFarlane

has just shared

an astonishing report
with the Oak Island team.

I wasn't expecting that.

No, not me either.

NARRATOR: According
to laser ablation testing,

the lead isotope values
contained in the barter token

that was found earlier
this year on Lot 5,

match the lead cross that was
found at Smith's Cove in 2017.

This means it was likely
made in the 14th century,

and originated in
Southern France.

I was expecting that.

(laughing)

GARY: Because of the context.

It was recovered on Lot 5,

not too far from shore,

and it was a good two feet down.

And when that came out,

I had no idea what it is

but it's got a really,
really old feel about it.

CHRIS: Yeah.

I mean, I can also
tell you that it does fit,

just like the cross with
sources in Europe and...

it certainly fits still
with a French source.

It's close in terms of
the isotopic composition.

Like, the actual value
is essentially identical.

To find a friend of
the cross... possibly...

Right there on Lot
5, that's brilliant.

(laughs)

It was found on Lot 5,

right next to that
odd stone feature

that we've been having the
archaeologists dig around.

And they don't have a
good explanation for it...

Just that it was
originally filled in,

in the early to mid-1700s.

And I'm glad you
brought that up, Jack,

'cause that might have
actually came out of that feature.

It could have been in
the fill taken out of it.

That is a top-pocket find.

(laughing)

NARRATOR: Is it possible
that the Oak Island team

has now found two
critical pieces of evidence

suggesting that
someone of French origin

visited Oak Island
in the 14th century?

If so, could the
stone feature on Lot 5

also be related to them

and even help validate the map

that the late Zena
Halpern believed

was created by members
of the Knights Templar?

RICK: What's
really intriguing too is

we've looked for
representations of the cross

and we've only seen one

in a very early cave
system in Osimo, Italy,

and one on the walls of
Domme prison in France,

where the Templars
were imprisoned.

Mm-hmm.

Now that this scalloped
disc is a friend of the cross,

I mean, one could,
on some level,

- associate the two.
- Yeah.

MARTY: The lead in the
disc apparently matches,

virtually identically with
the lead from the lead cross.

That is a head scratcher.

And another very
significant thing

that could tie the Templars here

is if we find the "why."

(chuckling) All those other W's
are gonna fall right into place.

What do you think, Craig?
Kind of interesting data.

Um, definitely, I mean,
I guess the big thing is

I'm glad it's
close to the cross.

I guess I just want more detail.

CHRIS: I mean,
I could look into it

if you want some
guidance for sure.

That would be great. Yes.

The good news is, thanks
to Chris, we now have

a pathway forward.

So thanks for the info.

Appreciate the, the opportunity

to move this discovery
process forward.

Really appreciate it.

No worries. Any time, guys.

MARTY: Good
session. Appreciate it.

- Andiamo.
- RICK: Andiamo.

NARRATOR: Later
that afternoon...

ALEX: Jack, looks like you've
got a better view out here.

JACK: Oh, yeah.

- This is a great spot to watch.
- ALEX: Perfect.

NARRATOR: Alex
Lagina, Steve Guptill,

Gary Drayton, Jack Begley

and Billy Gerhardt return to

the triangle-shaped swamp
to continue searching for clues

on the mysterious stone ramp.

MARTY: The swamp is
complicated... like everything else...

But now we have a ramp

that goes from the
paved area up to the path.

So we're trying to get
to the bottom of that.

The year's coming to a close

but we got a few days left.

We could have
some breakthroughs.

We're looking for the
edge of the ramp, yeah?

Yeah, Gary and I were
watching from over here.

And we can clearly
see the road continuing...

- Yeah, the path.
- But we're not sure

if we've reached
the edge of the ramp.

It'd be great if we can
find the edge, basically.

Where do you think the
edge of it would be, Steve?

So we know it doesn't
exist on the west side.

What we're looking for is
the extension on the east side.

- Ooh.
- (detector beeping)

- Ooh.
- Jack!

- Yeah.
- I got a signal, mate.

We are in business.
Just there, mate.

That was the last
scoop that came out.

JACK: See if I moved it.

It's still there?

GARY: Yep. Still there.

All right. Pinpointer time.

-(beeping) -Come on,
be something good.

JACK: Ooh, that's pretty big.

- GARY: That is sweet.
- JACK: Whoa.

NARRATOR: While investigating

the stone ramp in the
triangle-shaped swamp,

metal detection
expert Gary Drayton

has just made what could
be a significant discovery.

- What you got, guys?
- GARY: Eh, it's a...

- Looks like a brass door handle.
- Interesting.

GARY: You know what?

This could be off
like a ship's cabinet

or a door on a ship.

Yeah. Who knows?

NARRATOR: A possible handle?

And potentially from
a large sailing vessel?

If so, could it be related

to the many other pieces
of ships and cargo barrels

that the team has
found in the swamp

over the past several years?

And perhaps offer more
evidence that the stone ramp

and the 800-year-old
paved area were used

to off-load something of
great value onto Oak Island?

GARY: One thing for
sure, it's an artifact, mate.

And I'm gonna bag it.

- Sweet find, Gary.
- Good digging, mate.

ALEX: Okay, here we go.

See if we can find the
other edge of the path.

♪ ♪

ALEX: We'd really like to
find the edges of this ramp.

Not only does it indicate

more conclusively
that it's man-made,

but it's also gonna help us
figure out what the purpose was.

(clanking)

I think he might
be hitting it there.

- The ramp?
- ALEX: Maybe.

Yeah, you can hear him
hit the side in that path.

We should go in
there and poke around.

I agree.

ALEX: Hey, Billy.

We'll jump down in.

Yep.

JACK: Let's see what we got.

ALEX: Stone path still here.

I think there's a good chance

that the ramp
continues here, too.

BILLY: The only sure way is

- to clean it off more carefully at this point.
- ALEX: Yeah.

- So we'll just work our way this way.
- JACK: Okay.

ALEX: And honestly,
maybe it's best

to start over here
and look for the edge.

- We were on to this edge already.
- ALEX: Right foot?

- Yeah, okay.
- No, I'll work around in here.

♪ ♪

There's rocks, as you can see,

- all right here...
- Yeah.

But where you're
digging, well...

That there, that's where
it stops, right there.

Oh. Oh, yeah.
And then it just...

- It stops.
- Because look.

Look in here... nothing.

Nothing. Nothing.

- Down to this subsoil level.
- That's the C horizon.

Yeah.

I'm pretty comfortable
with saying

the edge is right here.

ALEX: As we're
scraping away dirt,

we can see an area
where you've got dark soil,

and right next to it
you've got the C horizon,

which is untouched by humans.

So it looks like it could
be the edges of this ramp.

So we're probably there but...

Oh, great, this is actually
wonderful news, right?

- Yes, it is.
- ALEX: Yeah.

JACK: We found
the edge of the ramp.

BILLY: Yeah, from
my vantage point,

we found the edge of
the paved area up there.

- ALEX: Uh-huh.
- BILLY: This lines up with the end of the paved area, I mean,

it ties the ramp to the
path and we're pretty sure

we have the ramp
tied to the paved areas,

so now we have the
paved area tied to a road.

- Right?
- Yeah.

RICK: I believe there are

four large man-made constructs

either associated with the swamp

or in the body of
the swamp proper.

They took a lot of
work, a lot of effort.

We don't quite yet
know their purpose

but human beings
made those structures.

You want to leave it as is,
and then go talk to the guys?

I think so, yeah, 'cause I...

This is the best we
can hope to find, really.

Okay. Let's, uh,
let's go tell the guys.

- JACK: Yeah.
- ALEX: Perfect.

NARRATOR: The
following morning...

MARTY: Are we ready?

Hey, how's it going, guys? Yeah.

Guys are down there,

so the casing's in
place and the geofoam.

How'd that go? It went well?

- Very well.
- Went well, yeah.

NARRATOR: Rick, Marty,

and the members of the team

return to the Money Pit area

as representatives from
Dumas Contracting Limited

begin their attempt to
drill into the believed tunnel

some ten feet below
the Garden Shaft.

Well, that's a good picture.

- SCOTT: We're ready to go and drill.
- MARTY: Yeah.

NARRATOR: A tunnel that may lead

directly toward the "Baby
Blob" or potential treasure zone.

Rodney felt that we may kind
of be on the edge of the tunnel.

How does he know that?

When he was probing down
there, he thought he felt wood

more on one side
than the other side,

- something...
- Oh.

Boy, we could drill through
a bunch of wood, then.

SCOTT: We, we don't know.

ROGER: So right now
we're at roughly 91, 92 feet.

We think we're sitting
on some wood right now,

so we're gonna go down

- with the drill.
- MARTY: Okay.

ROGER: Copy, go ahead.

Yes!

Absolutely.

Whenever you're ready.

Pump coming on.

MARTY: We've done all
this work in the Garden Shaft

- to get to this point.
- (whirring)

I want to see some
precious metals in this shaft.

I really do, and I think
there's a decent chance.

All right. Here we go!

- ROGER: Good to go, guys.
- (whirring)

So the fact that this is an
unknown tunnel, it's great

but an unknown tunnel
that is right in the area

where the scientists say

anomalous amounts
of precious metals are,

makes it very important.

And I know you're interested
in that for the same reason.

Yep. For sure.

♪ ♪

- It's moving slowly.
- Oh, yeah.

Copy. Go ahead.

Does it sound like
he's grinding away

on something hard or is it...

ROGER: Does it sound
like you're drilling on

something really hard?

MARTY: Oh, baby.

NARRATOR: In the Money Pit area,

members of Dumas
Contracting Limited

are currently attempting
to drill into a believed tunnel

at a depth of some 92 feet,

located just below the
bottom of the Garden Shaft.

- Pretty tough wood.
- Yep.

♪ ♪

NARRATOR: A tunnel
that may head due west

into the so-called Baby Blob
where the team has detected

their highest trace evidence
of both silver and gold.

It's moving slowly.

Oh, yeah. Oh, it's unbelievable.

MARTY: Is she spinning?

No.

Copy. Go ahead.

Man, oh, man, oh, man,
talk about being close

and not being able to get there.

CHARLES: Emotional
roller coaster.

Yeah.

Yeah. There you go.

All right. Let's
go through this.

ALEX: It moved a couple inches.

Did we just get
two inches, really?

Oh, yeah. We made some headway.

Today's not the day.

We're not getting
anywhere like this.

What do you think?

Why don't they just pull it up

as far as they can, see if
anything comes out at all.

Yeah.

Copy, Rodney?

RODNEY: Yeah, go ahead.

ROGER: Can you pull up your rod,

see if there's anything
coming out of the...

off the flighting?

RODNEY: Yeah. 10-4.

- I need a chunk of wood to come out of that hole.
- Yeah.

RODNEY: I know I hit
wood earlier. I know I did.

BRANDON V.: There's
something on there.

- RODNEY: Oh.
- BRANDON V.: There you go.

- There's something.
- RODNEY: Yeah.

- They're looking for something.
- ROGER: Yeah.

- BRANDON V.: Roger.
- Yeah, go ahead.

BRANDON V.: There
was wood on the drill.

I gave a piece to Dan to bring
up there, he's gonna show you.

Oh. He's saying, they said

Dan is on his way up
with a piece of wood.

MARTY: Perfect.

Why do we get this close and
we don't have any time left?

Yeah.

Ooh. (chuckles)

Yeah, I'll show it to the guys,
see what they have to say.

What've you got there, Roger?

It's not much, but I
mean, it's not a big piece.

I wish it was a little
bigger than that.

MARTY: Yeah. (chuckling)

ROGER: That piece
of wood was from

just outside of the bit.

So, I mean, it's...

it's definitely not
from our new timber.

It doesn't look like it's
a young piece of wood.

Believe it or not, that's
plenty to carbon date.

RICK: It's just a tiny,
tiny, little piece of wood.

But it is a piece
and at this point,

given that's the only
sample, it's a data point.

We'll send it off
for carbon dating.

You said you can drill tomorrow.

Yes.

So, what do we want to do?

I'd opt for a whole new hole.

SCOTT: I don't think we
have time for a whole new hole.

If there is wood there

and you come down on
the wood with a six-inch,

- it would advance down.
- Yeah.

So I guess I'm with Scott,
given the time constraints.

Yeah.

So, pull the casing and
we'll drill the six-inch?

- Yeah. Yeah.
- Whatever happens, happens.

Unfortunately, we
have to be done.

Okay.

NARRATOR: Because
the team is not able to

penetrate the possible
tunnel with their current drill bit,

which measures just
four inches in diameter,

they will need to pause the
operation in order to obtain

a more powerful
six-inch replacement.

MARTY: It looks like we are
running out of time for this season and

literally, when we're
inches away from something

that could be a big discovery.

We can't get through the
wood with a four-inch drill bit,

so we're gonna try to get
through it with a six-inch.

That's it. I think
you can call it a day.

And then tomorrow morning,
yes, please, get right on it

with your six-inch and
we'll be back out here.

Okay.

- RICK: Thank you, Roger.
- ROGER: Absolutely.

NARRATOR: After digging more
than 90 feet deep in the Money Pit,

Rick, Marty, Craig and
their team may now be

just inches from what
people have been trying to find

for more than two centuries.

And given all of
the incredible clues

that they have uncovered
across the island,

and once again in Europe...

it may be a treasure
more valuable and historic

than anyone could
have ever imagined.

So now, even as the harsh
winter season closes in,

can anything stop them

from making the
ultimate discovery?

Next time on the
thrilling season finale of

The Curse of Oak Island...

LAIRD: I thought this
was the bottom but...

- (soft thudding)
- GARY: Oh, wow!

Does that sound solid to you?

No. This might be the hatch.

There's a massive treasure

within 15 feet of
the Garden Shaft?

Yeah, we've narrowed down
an area.

Something's close by.

MARTY:
I want to go down that shaft.

We'll see
what's down there, mate.

Ooh! That's a nonferrous target.

- MARTY: Really?
- GARY: This could be gold.

MARTY:
Yeah!
