  • Robbie: (as Rottenbeard) I've got me a map. I've got me a shovel. But I need a pack of puny pirates, such as yourselves to help me find the booty.
  • Ziggy: What did you just say?
  • Robbie: (as himself) I need someone to help me find the treasure!
  • Robbie: (as Rottenbeard) Are ye real buccaneers? If it's real treasure ye be seeking ye be sailing under the flag of Rottenbeard the Pirate.
  • Robbie: So if someone, meaning me, made a fake stone, they'd have to do whatever I wrote on it. (laughs gleefully) Time to put my skills as a chiseler to good use. Ah! Ah! Now all I have to do is break it to match the other half. (laughs meanly) Ah! (He falls over, but the stone splits just as he wanted it to.) A perfect match. And now to go bury it somewhere those kids will find it. Ha ha ha! Disguise time!
  • Milford: (reading from the LazyTown Big Book of History) A pirate named Rottenbeard wandered through LazyTown, spreading his rottenness to every home and taking whatever he wanted.
  • Robbie: Those rotten kids. Noise, noise, noise. Nothing but noise! Ugh. (groans) Ew! Ugh! Uh! Eee. Ahh. Ha ha ha. (finds several sets of earmuffs) For trucks, jets, rockets. Ah, for kids. (He puts them on, but then removes them because they're not working.) Nothing is working! Oh ho ho ho!
  • Trixie: I have a hook.
  • Ziggy: She has a hook.
  • Stingy: Okay, uh, you're in charge.
  • Sportacus: Good luck, guys. But don't sink too many ships.
  • Sportacus: I thought Stephanie was in real trouble. No wonder my crystal didn't beep.
  • Trixie: Yargh! We be playin' pirates, Sportacus!

Trivia

  • This episode features the first time that the kids are taken hostage by Robbie.
  • Pixel is the only character absent and doesn't appear in this episode. Bessie is also absent, but her photo can be seen in the Town Hall.
  • Robbie and the kids perform "You Are a Pirate," Track 10 on the LazyTown album.
  • The "History of LazyTown" book read by the Mayor uses the original LazyTown logo from before the concept was adapted for television.
  • At the front of Rottenbeard's pirate ship, there is a carved bird that resembles Haninn, the bird and narrator featured in Glanni Glaepur i Latabae.
  • The pirate ship shows up again in Robbie's Greatest Misses. Here it nearly manages to run over Sportacus all by itself.
  • The Parrot was one of Stefán's pets.
  • Right before finding the real treasure map, Stephanie implies she is only in LazyTown for the summer, saying, "I can't believe it. I have to spend my whole summer here doing nothing."
  • While the kids are digging for the real stone, a real parakeet is seen resting on Stingy's left shoulder. It appears when he says, "Keep on digging", and when he sings "Me, and my bird, and my bird, and me."
  • You Are A Pirate has become an Internet meme.

Goofs

  • During the scene where the fake stone is unveiled, Stephanie starts to walk away. She is seen walking for about three seconds and then the camera cuts to Sportacus, who starts to run after her. When he does this, Stephanie is nowhere in sight. She is then seen sitting on a bench. Based on the time taken, she should not have been able to reach the bench that quickly.
