We'd been called in to get our hands on this miraculous diving equipment. Not all bad, really. If things go our way, the team might get a frogman out of the deal, which Bentley figures will be a big help cracking the Cooper Vault. That Bentley, always thinking.
― Sly, from the episode's introduction[src]
"Dead Men Tell No Tales" is the fifth episode of Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves. It takes place in Blood Bath Bay, and the main antagonist is Captain LeFwee.
Synopsis
The Setup
One Saturday night, the gang got a message from Dimitri. It was time for Sly to return the favor he promised him back in Holland.[1] Dimitri gone ahead and booked the whole gang a cruise to none other than Blood Bath Bay, a town made up of hermit pirates. And in Sly's view, it is the most lawless place on Earth.
The cruise gave the gang a chance to get the run-down from Dimitri. His grandfather, Reme Lousteau, was a pioneering deep sea diver, who made a fortune looting undersea wrecks. However, his luck ran short when his treasure and precious diving gear were stolen by a young pirate named Black Spot Pete.
A broken Reme retired from treasure hunting and eventually started a family. Since Dimitri grew up on his grandpa's stories, he dreamed of recovering the lost diving gear one day.
The gang agreed to help Dimitri recover the diving gear. Bentley mentioned to Sly, that if they were lucky enough, the gang could even get a frogman out of the deal, which would be a big help in the Cooper Vault heist.

The Getaway

They will have these conversations that the rest of the gang can't even follow. Sly can see that both Bentley and Penelope are made for each other.
Dimitri is also in love, as he lets his grandpa's diving gear go to his head. The gang was "informed" that he is their frogman for the Cooper Vault heist, despite the fact that nobody asked him.

Trivia
- Out of all the levels in this game with a Day 1 and 2 system, this is the only one in which the sky does not change at all on day 2. It stays consistent throughout.
- Carmelita is completely absent in this episode, something that Sly notes in the getaway cutscene. That makes this the only episode in Sly 3 not to feature her at all.
- On day 2 of the episode, the player can sail into Blood Bath Bay, but the island will not load.
- Given the August 25, 05 date on the postcard Sly sends Carmelita in the getaway cutscene, the events of this episode likely take place in late August.
