Addenda From Jason:
During this episode, I did not have my notes organized conveniently, so I was unable to specifically name the following individuals who worked on “Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl,” and honor them with accolades for their quality work. To try to make up for this failing on my part, here are their names:
Brian Morris - Production Designer
Larry Dias - Set Decoration
Penny Rose - Costume Designer
