Revision as of 20:44, 21 January 2020

"Take a look around. You think these people give a damn about consequences? Take the night off. A true pirate doesn't live for tomorrow, they only live for the moment."

—Mick Rory to Amaya Jiwe

"The Curse of the Earth Totem" is the twelfth episode of the third season of DC's Legends of Tomorrow, and the forty-fifth episode overall. It aired on February 26, 2018.

Synopsis

When Sara decides to take some private time, the Legends pursue a lead on the whereabouts of the long-lost Earth Totem. Without Sara's knowledge, the Legends find themselves in 1717 to hunt for Blackbeard’s long-lost treasure, but in true Legends fashion, things go awry. Meanwhile, Ray feels guilty about something he has done and tries to make amends, which lands him in even bigger trouble.^[src]
