"Muppet Treasure Island" Trivia Quiz

Answer: Blind Pew

Blind Pew may have shown up earlier in the movie to give Billy Bones the "black spot", but he is not part of Captain Smollett's crew later on in the movie. As a matter of fact, the last time we see him is at the Admiral Benbow Inn right before Jim, Gonzo, and Rizzo leave for Squire Trelawney's house. Big Fat Ugly Bug Faced Baby Eating O'Brian is the only woman hired for the crew. Dead Tom is a crew member along with his friends Old Tom and Real Old Tom. Sweetums is right behind Captain Smollett when his name his called.
