The Plundered Plumage asks you to find Marley’s bobblehead at Captain Marley & The Buccaneers’ Retreat. Its position is back near the resort entrance, in the locked space you can open after obtaining the bolt cutter.
Return to the resort entrance with the bolt cutter
- Continue the resort’s main route through the captain’s galley and dream sequence.
- Back in the present, use the planks to cross the broken floor and collect the bolt cutter.
- Return toward the place where you first entered the resort, rather than going straight to the boat.
- Cut the lock on the entrance booth and go inside.
- Inspect the bobblehead on the table and complete its Take interaction.
- Check The Plundered Plumage in your platform’s achievement list before moving on.
The resort walkthrough gives the preceding bolt-cutter route if you have not reached it yet.
Use the entrance booth as the landmark
Release footage returns toward the entrance at 3:31:08, opens the space and takes the bobblehead at about 3:33:22. The achievement is recorded immediately after that interaction.
The room also contains written material about the resort. You can inspect it on the same visit, but Scallyrat Roberts is a separate completion task. Taking the bobblehead does not establish that all notes or clippings have been read.
Bobblehead and mascot item are different
| Object | Where to look | What it completes |
|---|---|---|
| Marley’s bobblehead | Locked entrance booth, after obtaining the bolt cutter | The Plundered Plumage |
| Story mascot item | Souvenir-shop shelf near the parrot | A journal task at the resort |
| Resort notes and clippings | Several resort interiors and displays | Scallyrat Roberts when the full set is completed |
Do not clear this checklist just because the souvenir shop task has advanced. The entrance object must be found and taken in its own interaction.
If the booth is still locked
If you have not collected the bolt cutter, continue the galley route first. The locked booth is an access problem rather than a camera puzzle. Once the tool is available, face the lock and adjust Alfred’s position if its action prompt does not appear.
If you are already at the boat, finish the remaining shore checks before starting the departure sequence. If you have left the resort entirely, check the post-story replay option for a focused return. This guide does not claim that taking a photograph of the window display substitutes for taking the object.
Use the completion tracker to keep the bobblehead, written clues, arcade record, memories and rest checks separate.
