Archaeologists Miriam Emerald and Dr. Aaron Taylor explore the uplands near Oak Island's northeastern border, searching for evidence of a mysterious stone pathway. They discover hand-painted pottery, which may indicate earlier human activity.

The exploration aims to connect the pathway to the legendary Money Pit, with hopes of uncovering its secrets.
