1
00:00:11,610 --> 00:00:13,189
Dobbs assaulted him,
2
00:00:14,046 --> 00:00:15,029
and he believes him responsible
3
00:00:15,030 --> 00:00:17,432
for choosing the men to
be interrogated by them.
4
00:00:17,433 --> 00:00:18,633
But it's been sorted.
5
00:00:18,634 --> 00:00:20,434
I had three men hold him down
6
00:00:20,435 --> 00:00:22,135
while Dooley and Wayne
administered a beating.
7
00:00:22,136 --> 00:00:23,937
The governor in Nassau
8
00:00:23,938 --> 00:00:25,572
hanged a pirate in the square.
9
00:00:25,573 --> 00:00:28,308
The pirate was Charles Vane.
10
00:00:28,309 --> 00:00:30,711
What do you want to do about it?
11
00:00:30,712 --> 00:00:33,380
He knew it was the
only way to start it.
12
00:00:33,381 --> 00:00:35,282
Start what?
13
00:00:35,283 --> 00:00:38,218
The resistance in Nassau
is now under way.
14
00:00:38,219 --> 00:00:39,788
How long before
their force arrives?
15
00:00:39,789 --> 00:00:40,769
A week.
16
00:00:40,770 --> 00:00:43,223
Then we have much preparation
to do and little time to do it.
17
00:00:43,224 --> 00:00:44,892
Captain Hornigold will be sailing
18
00:00:44,893 --> 00:00:46,226
in consort with you.
19
00:00:46,227 --> 00:00:47,502
I know this enemy.
20
00:00:47,503 --> 00:00:49,396
He took that cache with
the express purpose
21
00:00:49,397 --> 00:00:51,363
of compelling us to commit your force
22
00:00:51,364 --> 00:00:52,899
to a battlefield of his choosing.
23
00:00:52,900 --> 00:00:55,568
If you allow him to dictate
the terms of battle,
24
00:00:55,569 --> 00:00:57,953
you court a disastrous outcome.

You sure this is wise?
27
00:02:57,938 --> 00:03:00,097
At the end of the day,
secrets among friends
28
00:03:00,098 --> 00:03:02,274
are the source of all
good things gone wrong.
29
00:03:04,278 --> 00:03:06,111
Is that what we are now?
30
00:03:07,247 --> 00:03:08,747
Friends?
31
00:03:10,518 --> 00:03:12,100
He wasn't talking about you.
32
00:03:12,101 --> 00:03:16,439
He's talking about our
hostess, the queen.
33
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,309
That said, you're wrong. He's right.
34
00:03:21,564 --> 00:03:23,545
The safest place for
this isn't behind walls
35
00:03:23,546 --> 00:03:25,214
or guarded with guns.
36
00:03:25,215 --> 00:03:27,383
The safest place lives outside the realm
37
00:03:27,384 --> 00:03:28,551
of anyone's awareness.
38
00:03:28,552 --> 00:03:29,552
If the English can't find it,
39
00:03:29,553 --> 00:03:30,634
they can't take it.
40
00:03:31,387 --> 00:03:33,321
I told them we were taking
it, just not where.
41
00:03:33,322 --> 00:03:36,058
She agreed it was best for all
42
00:03:36,059 --> 00:03:38,198
for its whereabouts to remain unknown,
43
00:03:38,853 --> 00:03:42,396
provided that you were among the circle
44
00:03:42,397 --> 00:03:43,767
that knew of it.
45
00:03:45,234 --> 00:03:47,302
You they trust above any of us
46
00:03:48,086 --> 00:03:52,521
not to betray for money.
47
00:03:54,595 --> 00:03:56,962
The irony wasn't lost on either of us.
48
00:03:58,932 --> 00:04:01,049
Well, now that you've been fetched,
49
00:04:01,050 --> 00:04:02,917
much to do.
50
00:04:02,918 --> 00:04:04,978
A war to plan for.
51
00:04:09,241 --> 00:04:12,570
I've heard you use that
word a thousand times.
52
00:04:13,650 --> 00:04:16,062
A war against England,
53
00:04:16,063 --> 00:04:18,315
now a war to reclaim Nassau.
54
00:04:20,086 --> 00:04:22,473
But hearing him use it just now,
55
00:04:22,474 --> 00:04:25,787
so near the actual arrival of it,
56
00:04:25,788 --> 00:04:27,760
it sounds different.
57
00:04:30,486 --> 00:04:32,295
It feels different.
58
00:04:35,935 --> 00:04:39,656
Not far from here, the
fortifications are already built
59
00:04:41,022 --> 00:04:43,123
from which in a few days' time
60
00:04:43,124 --> 00:04:47,477
you'll look out and stare
down King George's navy.
61
00:04:57,656 --> 00:05:00,140
Are you having second thoughts?
62
00:05:00,141 --> 00:05:01,361
Aren't you?
63
00:05:02,931 --> 00:05:05,236
All of the blood that's
about to be spilt,
64
00:05:05,980 --> 00:05:09,783
all the things about to
be lost... aren't you?
65
00:05:09,784 --> 00:05:11,985
Well, I wish it wasn't necessary,
66
00:05:11,986 --> 00:05:13,408
if that's what you're asking.
67
00:05:16,490 --> 00:05:17,996
When we were becalmed,
68
00:05:19,010 --> 00:05:21,994
I told Billy I believed
your darkest thoughts
69
00:05:21,995 --> 00:05:23,329
somehow had the ability
70
00:05:23,330 --> 00:05:25,799
to manifest themselves upon our reality.
71
00:05:26,871 --> 00:05:30,573
That your anger over the
murder of Mrs. Barlow
72
00:05:31,138 --> 00:05:33,610
became the storm into
which we all battled.
73
00:05:35,242 --> 00:05:37,476
That your despair over her death
74
00:05:37,477 --> 00:05:39,662
became the doldrums
into which we all sank.
75
00:05:43,168 --> 00:05:46,968
In my defense, I hadn't had anything
to eat or drink in a while.
76
00:05:48,538 --> 00:05:49,761
But the truth of it,
77
00:05:50,631 --> 00:05:52,540
I'm not sure it was that far off.
78
00:05:55,679 --> 00:05:59,848
Your demons are a part of our reality.
79
00:06:01,384 --> 00:06:04,452
Such is the nature of the
influence you wield.
80
00:06:05,689 --> 00:06:08,190
Some of those demands
I've come to know...
81
00:06:09,626 --> 00:06:12,828
but the one in whose name
this war is to be fought...
82
00:06:14,464 --> 00:06:16,664
it is still a stranger to me.
83
00:06:19,636 --> 00:06:22,756
Before this war actually begins,
84
00:06:23,623 --> 00:06:26,007
I'm asking where it actually began.
85
00:06:28,144 --> 00:06:30,010
Will you tell me?
86
00:07:22,164 --> 00:07:23,980
Oh, Jesus.
87
00:07:23,981 --> 00:07:26,115
They are not fucking around, are they?
88
00:07:26,116 --> 00:07:28,703
We're supposed to sail into that?
89
00:07:29,287 --> 00:07:31,397
One ship against their entire fleet?
90
00:07:32,290 --> 00:07:33,957
A favorable wind.
91
00:07:33,958 --> 00:07:35,125
We'll be upon them quickly.
92
00:07:35,126 --> 00:07:36,805
We'll take fire, obviously.
93
00:07:37,361 --> 00:07:38,461
If we can just get our vanguard
94
00:07:38,462 --> 00:07:39,696
aboard one of their ships,
95
00:07:39,697 --> 00:07:41,464
we could disrupt their entire line.
96
00:07:41,465 --> 00:07:43,133
Do not look at me like that.
97
00:07:43,134 --> 00:07:44,179
This is the plan.
98
00:07:44,969 --> 00:07:45,969
Harass their line.
99
00:07:45,970 --> 00:07:48,305
We create uncertainty
100
00:07:48,306 --> 00:07:50,140
in the minds of their
soldiers on the ground
101
00:07:50,141 --> 00:07:52,976
and undermine their
confidence in their command.
102
00:07:52,977 --> 00:07:55,978
Yeah, and I know how they'll feel.
103
00:07:55,979 --> 00:07:58,214
Sails! East-southeast!
104
00:07:58,931 --> 00:08:00,085
East?
105
00:08:07,007 --> 00:08:09,508
Six ships. British colors.
106
00:08:10,645 --> 00:08:11,960
Who the fuck is that?
107
00:08:11,961 --> 00:08:14,129
Reinforcements, likely.
108
00:08:14,130 --> 00:08:16,131
It seems Governor Rogers
was able to enlist
109
00:08:16,132 --> 00:08:17,466
the aid of one of his colleagues.
110
00:08:17,467 --> 00:08:19,301
I'll put a launch in the water now.
111
00:08:19,302 --> 00:08:21,637
What for?
112
00:08:21,638 --> 00:08:23,372
To inform Captain Flint
113
00:08:23,373 --> 00:08:25,975
so he can make his retreat.
114
00:08:25,976 --> 00:08:28,143
There could be hundreds of
soldiers aboard those ships.
115
00:08:28,144 --> 00:08:29,644
The captain's battle plan
116
00:08:29,645 --> 00:08:30,712
does not take into account
a force that large.
117
00:08:30,713 --> 00:08:32,314
Captain Flint's battle plan
118
00:08:32,315 --> 00:08:34,115
does not take into account his retreat.
119
00:08:34,116 --> 00:08:36,051
There is nowhere to retreat to.
120
00:08:36,052 --> 00:08:38,987
And given how much we have
sacrificed to earn this battle,
121
00:08:38,988 --> 00:08:41,490
how can we do anything
other than see it through?
122
00:08:41,491 --> 00:08:44,659
My friend may have given his
life to earn this battle.
123
00:08:44,660 --> 00:08:48,418
I understand the obligation
you are feeling to succeed,
124
00:08:48,419 --> 00:08:50,498
but there comes a certain point
125
00:08:50,499 --> 00:08:52,268
where one must accept what
is painfully obvious.
126
00:08:52,269 --> 00:08:54,436
- How many ships?
- What?
127
00:08:54,437 --> 00:08:56,438
The second fleet...
How many ships?
128
00:08:56,439 --> 00:08:58,440
Six sets of sails!
129
00:08:58,441 --> 00:08:59,608
Describe them, please.
130
00:08:59,609 --> 00:09:00,609
What difference does it make?
131
00:09:00,610 --> 00:09:01,610
Shut up.
132
00:09:01,611 --> 00:09:04,112
The flotilla...
Describe them.
133
00:09:04,113 --> 00:09:05,947
Three tall ships!
134
00:09:05,948 --> 00:09:09,117
Two sloop!
135
00:09:09,118 --> 00:09:11,336
- One man of war.
- And one man of war.
136
00:09:14,307 --> 00:09:16,408
Make a course for that
second flotilla, please.
137
00:09:17,477 --> 00:09:18,693
You're going to attack them?
138
00:09:18,694 --> 00:09:20,628
Time is short, please.
139
00:09:20,629 --> 00:09:22,014
Get us under way.
140
00:09:24,484 --> 00:09:26,017
Get us under way!
141
00:10:18,803 --> 00:10:20,770
Right flank, kneel!
142
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,164
Fire!
143
00:10:45,195 --> 00:10:46,528
Reload!
144
00:10:50,033 --> 00:10:52,517
Bring the mortars forward!
145
00:10:52,518 --> 00:10:55,020
- Mortars.
- Mortars!
146
00:10:55,021 --> 00:10:57,923
Concentrate on the mortars!
147
00:11:07,384 --> 00:11:09,100
Reload!
148
00:11:09,101 --> 00:11:11,169
Three paces forward!
149
00:11:11,170 --> 00:11:12,671
Present!
150
00:11:12,672 --> 00:11:14,355
Fire!
151
00:11:19,762 --> 00:11:22,212
Company, form into two ranks!
152
00:11:22,213 --> 00:11:24,498
Now!
153
00:11:29,204 --> 00:11:30,220
Second cannons!
154
00:11:30,221 --> 00:11:32,423
Take cover!
155
00:11:36,194 --> 00:11:39,479
Fire!
156
00:11:40,650 --> 00:11:43,133
Mortars in position!
157
00:11:43,134 --> 00:11:44,968
Fire!
158
00:11:47,138 --> 00:11:48,221
Fire!
159
00:11:51,808 --> 00:11:53,643
Captain, it's time!
160
00:11:53,644 --> 00:11:55,645
- Not yet.
- Fire!
161
00:11:55,646 --> 00:11:59,149
Two inches! Two inches!
162
00:11:59,150 --> 00:12:00,534
Fire!
163
00:12:08,677 --> 00:12:10,210
Captain, we need to fall back.
164
00:12:11,646 --> 00:12:13,380
Fire!
165
00:12:18,253 --> 00:12:19,602
Smoke!
166
00:12:19,603 --> 00:12:22,356
- Smoke!
- Smoke!
167
00:12:24,359 --> 00:12:27,476
Form into two ranks!
168
00:12:27,477 --> 00:12:29,645
Formation forward!
169
00:12:29,646 --> 00:12:31,680
- Fall back!
- Fall back!
170
00:12:31,681 --> 00:12:34,416
- Retreat!
- Fall back!
171
00:12:36,653 --> 00:12:38,321
Hold your fire!
172
00:12:38,322 --> 00:12:42,325
- Hold your fire!
- First company, prepare to move out!
173
00:12:42,326 --> 00:12:43,663
I wouldn't do that.
174
00:12:44,202 --> 00:12:45,504
Beg your pardon?
175
00:12:47,348 --> 00:12:49,047
Stand easy!
176
00:12:53,687 --> 00:12:55,504
He asked for this fight, Major.
177
00:12:55,505 --> 00:12:57,306
He didn't do so without a plan.
178
00:12:57,307 --> 00:12:58,474
And I promise you,
179
00:12:58,475 --> 00:13:00,008
bumbling into a hasty retreat
180
00:13:00,009 --> 00:13:01,010
wasn't a part of it.
181
00:13:01,011 --> 00:13:02,477
Bumbling?
182
00:13:02,478 --> 00:13:04,646
They were overwhelmed
by a superior force.
183
00:13:04,647 --> 00:13:07,316
He wants us to pursue him.
He wants you to pursue him.
184
00:13:08,343 --> 00:13:11,143
A tactical withdrawal to
guide us into an ambush.
185
00:13:11,654 --> 00:13:14,823
Am I to believe he sacrificed
over 50 of his men,
186
00:13:15,158 --> 00:13:17,216
led them into a massacre deliberately,
187
00:13:17,994 --> 00:13:19,985
just to entice us to chase him?
188
00:13:21,330 --> 00:13:24,402
You don't know that
man, Major, but I do.
189
00:13:25,168 --> 00:13:28,503
He's quite capable of what
you suggest and more.
190
00:13:39,932 --> 00:13:41,866
Reflected there.
191
00:13:45,337 --> 00:13:47,000
Is everything all right?
192
00:13:47,769 --> 00:13:49,787
Show her what you showed to me.
193
00:14:02,188 --> 00:14:03,503
"To the first to betray,
194
00:14:03,504 --> 00:14:06,174
I offer the first chance to repent.
195
00:14:06,175 --> 00:14:09,677
Remove the captain.
You have until nightfall."
196
00:14:09,678 --> 00:14:11,178
Where did you get this?
197
00:14:11,179 --> 00:14:12,512
It was sitting at the foot of my bed
198
00:14:12,513 --> 00:14:14,014
when I woke this morning.
199
00:14:14,015 --> 00:14:15,516
Someone left it while I slept.
200
00:14:15,517 --> 00:14:17,751
The message, it would seem, is clear.
201
00:14:17,752 --> 00:14:20,521
There is a voice out there
yet to identify itself
202
00:14:20,522 --> 00:14:22,523
that wants to see Captain Vane's remains
203
00:14:22,524 --> 00:14:24,625
removed from the gibbet in the square.
204
00:14:24,626 --> 00:14:26,342
Why does it look like this?
205
00:14:27,462 --> 00:14:30,298
An old wives' tale. Pirate lore.
206
00:14:31,010 --> 00:14:32,299
Avery's maiden crew
207
00:14:32,300 --> 00:14:33,633
was said to deliver the black spot
208
00:14:33,634 --> 00:14:36,136
as a warning to wayward crew members.
209
00:14:36,137 --> 00:14:38,305
Ignored on pain of death.
210
00:14:38,306 --> 00:14:41,474
I knew men when I was
young who sailed with Avery.
211
00:14:41,475 --> 00:14:42,975
It was a bullshit story then,
212
00:14:42,976 --> 00:14:45,044
and it's no less a bullshit story now.
213
00:14:45,045 --> 00:14:48,531
Ma'am, cowards send notes.
214
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,318
The form of the threat may
not rightly be the issue.
215
00:14:52,319 --> 00:14:54,152
We are aware there is
dissent on the street.
216
00:14:54,153 --> 00:14:56,322
Perhaps removing the gibbet
217
00:14:56,323 --> 00:14:57,656
would go a long way towards settling
218
00:14:57,657 --> 00:14:59,425
whatever unrest may be brewing.
219
00:14:59,426 --> 00:15:01,493
You're suggesting
that the governor comply
220
00:15:01,494 --> 00:15:03,329
with an anonymous threat?
221
00:15:03,330 --> 00:15:05,997
I am suggesting the gibbet
could be seen by some
222
00:15:05,998 --> 00:15:07,467
to be inflammatory.
223
00:15:07,468 --> 00:15:09,469
The point has been made.
224
00:15:09,470 --> 00:15:11,003
The law has been satisfied.
225
00:15:11,004 --> 00:15:12,639
It is a well-settled
statement of resolve
226
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,140
to maintain the display.
227
00:15:14,141 --> 00:15:16,142
If it is removed in the
light of this threat,
228
00:15:16,143 --> 00:15:18,477
in the light of Captain
Flint's standing ultimatum
229
00:15:18,478 --> 00:15:22,481
against the use of it, would it not
worry you that it might appear weak?
230
00:15:22,482 --> 00:15:23,982
It certainly worries me
231
00:15:23,983 --> 00:15:25,484
to make self-defeating mistakes
232
00:15:25,485 --> 00:15:27,319
out of fear of appearing weak.
233
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,009
No, he's right.
234
00:15:30,536 --> 00:15:32,374
He's right.
235
00:15:35,011 --> 00:15:36,661
It gives me no pleasure having it there,
236
00:15:36,662 --> 00:15:38,069
no matter what the street may say.
237
00:15:39,332 --> 00:15:40,666
But to remove it in this moment
238
00:15:40,667 --> 00:15:42,000
threatens to undermine confidence
239
00:15:42,001 --> 00:15:43,317
in the governor's leadership.
240
00:15:44,370 --> 00:15:47,338
That said, at the end
of three days' time,
241
00:15:47,339 --> 00:15:50,314
I want it down and gone,
not a minute longer.
242
00:15:51,497 --> 00:15:53,977
If you would like me
to form a small detail
243
00:15:53,978 --> 00:15:55,145
to offer you protection
in the meantime...
244
00:15:55,146 --> 00:15:59,149
If anyone has a problem with
my allegiance to the Crown,
245
00:15:59,150 --> 00:16:02,736
my men and I are happy
to address it with them.
246
00:16:03,375 --> 00:16:04,476
Ma'am?
247
00:16:08,010 --> 00:16:09,109
Excuse me.
248
00:16:26,395 --> 00:16:27,856
You should be in bed.
249
00:16:29,433 --> 00:16:31,564
I've spent enough time in bed.
250
00:16:54,356 --> 00:16:55,856
I did what I did.
251
00:16:57,059 --> 00:16:58,708
I know how it seems,
252
00:16:58,709 --> 00:16:59,709
to the street, to you,
253
00:16:59,710 --> 00:17:00,710
but please understand...
254
00:17:00,711 --> 00:17:01,953
It seems...
255
00:17:03,853 --> 00:17:06,652
as though a very difficult
thing was done.
256
00:17:10,405 --> 00:17:12,154
It seems as though I am fortunate
257
00:17:12,155 --> 00:17:14,540
you had the courage to do it.
258
00:17:18,179 --> 00:17:19,712
You have enemies here.
259
00:17:26,187 --> 00:17:28,554
Then let them be my enemies as well.
260
00:17:32,954 --> 00:17:34,649
Any and all of them.
261
00:17:37,198 --> 00:17:38,670
And let them come.
262
00:18:25,377 --> 00:18:26,744
As you were.
263
00:18:38,357 --> 00:18:41,340
Six ships...
Two sloops, man of war...
264
00:18:41,341 --> 00:18:42,809
It's a familiar combination.
265
00:18:42,810 --> 00:18:44,961
I once had a fleet of that makeup.
266
00:18:47,031 --> 00:18:49,882
Get her cleaned up, boy!
267
00:18:54,706 --> 00:18:57,356
I came looking for Flint, not you.
268
00:18:57,357 --> 00:18:58,725
Where is he?
269
00:18:58,726 --> 00:19:00,259
He's currently being pummeled
270
00:19:00,260 --> 00:19:02,394
by half the British navy
just beyond the horizon.
271
00:19:02,395 --> 00:19:04,498
The navy?
272
00:19:05,282 --> 00:19:08,534
The war to reclaim Nassau
began here about an hour ago.
273
00:19:08,535 --> 00:19:10,504
The entirety of the British fleet
274
00:19:10,505 --> 00:19:12,422
under the command of
Governor Rogers is in play.
275
00:19:13,579 --> 00:19:15,699
I'd like to think that you're
here to join our effort,
276
00:19:16,981 --> 00:19:18,315
but I fear the reason for your arrival
277
00:19:18,316 --> 00:19:19,500
is something other than that.
278
00:19:21,837 --> 00:19:23,170
Charles is dead.
279
00:19:29,512 --> 00:19:32,346
The governor in Nassau
hung him in the square.
280
00:19:36,018 --> 00:19:38,000
On the island I helped build,
281
00:19:38,001 --> 00:19:40,854
he thought he could do that
and face no consequences.
282
00:19:42,191 --> 00:19:44,224
He failed to account for me.
283
00:19:48,197 --> 00:19:50,346
British law sentenced him,
284
00:19:50,347 --> 00:19:52,181
but I think you and I
both know who it was
285
00:19:52,182 --> 00:19:53,849
that fashioned that noose,
286
00:19:53,850 --> 00:19:55,551
and it was no "he."
287
00:19:56,597 --> 00:19:58,354
I look forward to seeing
Miss Guthrie again
288
00:19:58,355 --> 00:20:00,757
and settling Charles' account with her.
289
00:20:02,125 --> 00:20:04,126
But there is no victory over her
290
00:20:04,127 --> 00:20:07,463
without a victory here today.
291
00:20:07,464 --> 00:20:09,014
That much is clear.
292
00:20:10,819 --> 00:20:12,985
Will you help us find it?
293
00:20:16,991 --> 00:20:19,975
Madness is such a
hard thing to define,
294
00:20:19,976 --> 00:20:23,479
which makes it such an easy label
295
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,197
to affix to one's enemies.
296
00:20:28,001 --> 00:20:31,092
Once it had been applied to Thomas,
297
00:20:31,987 --> 00:20:36,990
once our relationship had been exposed,
298
00:20:36,991 --> 00:20:39,878
defiled, scandalized...
299
00:20:42,483 --> 00:20:43,815
everything ended.
300
00:20:47,821 --> 00:20:51,138
There were times that I was persuaded
301
00:20:51,139 --> 00:20:52,473
to sue for peace since then,
302
00:20:52,474 --> 00:20:56,143
but that was the day
303
00:20:56,144 --> 00:20:58,671
that on some level I knew...
304
00:21:00,147 --> 00:21:02,124
that England was broken...
305
00:21:04,486 --> 00:21:08,539
and that sooner or later a
good man must resist it.
306
00:21:13,178 --> 00:21:14,495
I don't know what to say.
307
00:21:14,496 --> 00:21:16,214
You don't need to say anything.
308
00:21:18,165 --> 00:21:19,833
You asked me where I began,
309
00:21:19,834 --> 00:21:22,928
and I felt that you were
entitled to an answer...
310
00:21:23,971 --> 00:21:25,472
To the truth.
311
00:21:26,318 --> 00:21:27,825
I appreciate that.
312
00:21:30,329 --> 00:21:32,005
And I am genuinely sorry.
313
00:21:35,500 --> 00:21:39,318
But you can see how this
might be of particular
314
00:21:39,319 --> 00:21:41,053
and immediate concern for me.
315
00:21:42,757 --> 00:21:43,988
I can?
316
00:21:43,989 --> 00:21:47,793
Well, before today I knew of two people
317
00:21:47,794 --> 00:21:49,503
who managed to truly know you,
318
00:21:50,997 --> 00:21:53,289
to gain your trust, to be your partner,
319
00:21:54,334 --> 00:21:56,502
and they both ended up dead
while playing the role.
320
00:21:56,503 --> 00:21:59,004
- Now, wait a minute...
- Now you're telling me
321
00:21:59,005 --> 00:22:00,840
there's a third member of this class,
322
00:22:00,841 --> 00:22:03,342
making it even less credible
to characterize Mr. Gates'
323
00:22:03,343 --> 00:22:05,799
and Mrs. Barlow's deaths as bad luck.
324
00:22:06,979 --> 00:22:09,313
It would seem that those
closest to you meet their end
325
00:22:09,314 --> 00:22:11,559
not just during their relationship,
326
00:22:13,486 --> 00:22:14,876
but because of it.
327
00:22:15,988 --> 00:22:18,289
And as I sit here, I'm acutely aware
328
00:22:18,290 --> 00:22:20,158
there may be no one closer to you
329
00:22:20,159 --> 00:22:21,559
in the world right now than I.
330
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,161
What exactly are you saying?
331
00:22:23,162 --> 00:22:27,499
That I've somehow sought
out my own tragedies?
332
00:22:27,500 --> 00:22:30,167
Did you not tell me that
our darkest motives
333
00:22:30,168 --> 00:22:32,003
will conceal themselves from us?
334
00:22:32,004 --> 00:22:33,838
Cloak themselves in whatever they must
335
00:22:33,839 --> 00:22:36,107
in order to move us to action?
336
00:22:36,108 --> 00:22:38,509
And even if that's not true,
337
00:22:38,510 --> 00:22:40,344
a pattern is a pattern,
338
00:22:40,345 --> 00:22:42,347
and only a fool ignores one
339
00:22:42,348 --> 00:22:45,116
because he does not care
for the implications.
340
00:22:45,117 --> 00:22:49,453
So you see yourself as a potential
fourth member of this class,
341
00:22:49,454 --> 00:22:51,789
concerned that your association with me
342
00:22:51,790 --> 00:22:53,924
will lead to your end.
343
00:22:53,925 --> 00:22:57,582
My association with you
began out of necessity,
344
00:22:57,583 --> 00:23:00,320
but I've come to find
345
00:23:00,321 --> 00:23:01,799
a great deal of respect for you.
346
00:23:03,031 --> 00:23:04,469
Perhaps even friendship.
347
00:23:05,580 --> 00:23:06,580
Hmm.
348
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:14,348
Which is why I find myself
unnerved by the thought
349
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,314
that when this pattern
350
00:23:17,315 --> 00:23:19,066
applies itself to you and I...
351
00:23:22,005 --> 00:23:23,896
that I will be the end of you.
352
00:23:24,584 --> 00:23:26,195
Is that so?
353
00:23:26,558 --> 00:23:27,958
Well, the three who preceded me
354
00:23:27,959 --> 00:23:29,602
all had one thing in common.
355
00:23:30,619 --> 00:23:32,294
They were vulnerable to you.
356
00:23:32,295 --> 00:23:34,464
Had more to lose than you,
357
00:23:34,465 --> 00:23:37,351
less means with which to
protect themselves than you.
358
00:23:39,488 --> 00:23:41,438
Until recently, I thought
that was me as well,
359
00:23:41,439 --> 00:23:44,425
but now...
360
00:23:45,994 --> 00:23:48,811
I don't know that it is anymore.
361
00:23:48,812 --> 00:23:51,481
It is natural for men new to power
362
00:23:51,482 --> 00:23:54,150
to assume that it has no limits.
363
00:23:54,151 --> 00:23:58,072
Trust me. It does.
364
00:23:59,841 --> 00:24:01,925
We agreed that I would select a man
365
00:24:01,926 --> 00:24:04,494
to be responsible for
making a direct move
366
00:24:04,495 --> 00:24:07,830
against Captain Hornigold
once the battle begins.
367
00:24:07,831 --> 00:24:09,765
I chose Mr. Dobbs.
368
00:24:09,766 --> 00:24:11,485
You chose Dobbs?
369
00:24:13,489 --> 00:24:14,871
Why the fuck would you do that?
370
00:24:14,872 --> 00:24:16,873
It's a dangerous errand...
371
00:24:16,874 --> 00:24:18,584
It's more than dangerous.
372
00:24:19,809 --> 00:24:22,478
The entirety of our plan
rests on its success.
373
00:24:22,479 --> 00:24:24,313
Why would you assign it to a man
374
00:24:24,314 --> 00:24:26,348
harboring who knows what sort
of resentment against you?
375
00:24:26,349 --> 00:24:27,911
Because it isn't resentment.
376
00:24:28,818 --> 00:24:30,152
If you had disciplined him,
377
00:24:30,153 --> 00:24:31,153
he would resent you for it,
378
00:24:31,154 --> 00:24:32,889
but towards me...
379
00:24:33,823 --> 00:24:35,508
I don't believe he feels resentment.
380
00:24:37,512 --> 00:24:39,501
I believe he feels shame
381
00:24:40,230 --> 00:24:42,208
for having disappointed me
382
00:24:43,032 --> 00:24:46,235
and a great need to redeem
himself in my eyes.
383
00:24:47,029 --> 00:24:48,170
Send someone else.
384
00:24:48,171 --> 00:24:49,186
It's done.
385
00:24:49,839 --> 00:24:51,433
He knows.
386
00:24:52,308 --> 00:24:54,142
Were I to replace him now,
387
00:24:54,143 --> 00:24:56,077
it might provoke the
response you wish to avoid.
388
00:24:57,039 --> 00:24:58,120
If you're wrong,
389
00:24:58,121 --> 00:25:01,872
if Mr. Dobbs takes this
opportunity to betray you...
390
00:25:03,670 --> 00:25:05,446
to betray us...
391
00:25:11,612 --> 00:25:14,712
this battle will be over
before it ever begins.
392
00:25:18,852 --> 00:25:22,604
Flint sent you to kill me,
yet instead, you surrendered.
393
00:25:22,605 --> 00:25:24,356
Why?
394
00:25:26,338 --> 00:25:28,171
I sailed with that crew for months.
395
00:25:30,196 --> 00:25:32,446
Then they take the side
of those fucking savages
396
00:25:32,447 --> 00:25:35,416
over a man who was supposed
to have been their brother.
397
00:25:35,993 --> 00:25:38,117
Truth is, they didn't
give a shit about me
398
00:25:38,118 --> 00:25:39,453
except that I did their bidding,
399
00:25:39,454 --> 00:25:42,484
so now I'm ready to see it end,
400
00:25:42,957 --> 00:25:44,723
and I can help you end it.
401
00:25:45,126 --> 00:25:48,011
Says he knows where
the slave camp is located.
402
00:25:49,482 --> 00:25:53,184
Says the cache with the
gems is hidden nearby.
403
00:26:04,154 --> 00:26:06,688
Mr. Carter, please bring
me that man there.
404
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:25,738
Unfortunately, I've known too
many men from Nassau in my life,
405
00:26:26,300 --> 00:26:31,020
and it's so very hard to know
which can be taken at their word.
406
00:26:34,858 --> 00:26:38,067
Show me that you truly intend
to leave Captain Flint
407
00:26:38,811 --> 00:26:40,432
and your life with him behind you.
408
00:26:42,185 --> 00:26:43,815
Oh, that man will meet the same end
409
00:26:43,816 --> 00:26:46,652
whether you shoot him or
some other man hangs him,
410
00:26:47,890 --> 00:26:49,320
but I'd like to be quite certain
411
00:26:49,321 --> 00:26:50,855
your intentions are true.
412
00:27:08,491 --> 00:27:11,775
Major, prepare your men.
413
00:27:11,776 --> 00:27:13,327
Sir.
414
00:27:14,830 --> 00:27:16,813
Lieutenant, prepare the men.
415
00:27:16,814 --> 00:27:18,315
Make sure they have plenty of supplies,
416
00:27:18,316 --> 00:27:19,816
water, and ammunition.
417
00:27:19,817 --> 00:27:21,017
We're heading into the forest.
418
00:28:03,593 --> 00:28:05,345
He was hiding by the water.
419
00:28:07,849 --> 00:28:11,867
Otherwise, everyone is accounted
for and where they belong.
420
00:28:11,868 --> 00:28:13,536
All but you.
421
00:28:14,471 --> 00:28:16,888
You do not feel you
are where you belong.
422
00:28:19,126 --> 00:28:22,944
The men above would fight to protect us.
423
00:28:22,945 --> 00:28:24,657
I should be among them.
424
00:28:26,295 --> 00:28:28,784
If we are to lead them into this war,
425
00:28:28,785 --> 00:28:31,537
we ought to show that we are
willing to lead them through it.
426
00:28:46,987 --> 00:28:49,854
You have protected me for so very long.
427
00:28:51,324 --> 00:28:54,191
It is time I did the same for you.
428
00:29:22,489 --> 00:29:24,471
Did he get it?
429
00:29:24,472 --> 00:29:26,523
Your black spot was delivered, yeah.
430
00:29:28,527 --> 00:29:30,310
- But?
- I saw him.
431
00:29:30,311 --> 00:29:31,844
He was in the tavern
drinking with his men.
432
00:29:31,845 --> 00:29:33,323
They were in high spirits.
433
00:29:34,315 --> 00:29:36,149
And the gibbet remains?
434
00:29:36,150 --> 00:29:37,445
Yeah.
435
00:29:39,012 --> 00:29:39,987
I think it's going to take
436
00:29:39,988 --> 00:29:41,321
more than a note to frighten him.
437
00:29:41,322 --> 00:29:42,973
Of course it is.
438
00:29:44,810 --> 00:29:47,345
It was Mr. Gates who first
told me about the spot.
439
00:29:48,305 --> 00:29:50,785
It kept him awake for three nights.
440
00:29:51,799 --> 00:29:54,501
It wasn't the note or the threat.
441
00:29:56,002 --> 00:29:59,138
It was the idea of Avery himself,
442
00:29:59,139 --> 00:30:02,174
just the awareness that
someone so terrible
443
00:30:02,175 --> 00:30:04,160
knew your name.
444
00:30:05,330 --> 00:30:07,313
I have no doubt that
Captain Throckmorton
445
00:30:07,314 --> 00:30:10,253
is currently unconcerned
with our threat.
446
00:30:11,151 --> 00:30:13,430
We have only just begun
to tell our story.
447
00:30:15,315 --> 00:30:17,166
We haven't yet introduced the villain.
448
00:30:20,359 --> 00:30:22,328
It's been a few days since I told you
449
00:30:22,329 --> 00:30:24,396
of my suspicions about Idelle,
450
00:30:24,397 --> 00:30:27,967
her role in the attack on
the governor's caravan.
451
00:30:27,968 --> 00:30:30,369
One can only assume she
did not act alone,
452
00:30:30,370 --> 00:30:33,038
but had partners in this endeavor.
453
00:30:33,039 --> 00:30:35,975
You did not report this
news to the governor
454
00:30:35,976 --> 00:30:37,309
nor to Miss Guthrie.
455
00:30:37,310 --> 00:30:38,477
Nor did you take any action
456
00:30:38,478 --> 00:30:41,546
to discover who the partners might be.
457
00:30:41,547 --> 00:30:43,816
Until I know how this game will unfold,
458
00:30:43,817 --> 00:30:46,819
I choose to allow the players
to reveal themselves to me
459
00:30:46,820 --> 00:30:48,487
lest I make an enemy out of someone
460
00:30:48,488 --> 00:30:50,922
I may one day wish to call a friend.
461
00:30:58,350 --> 00:31:00,516
This way.
462
00:31:04,022 --> 00:31:05,438
Is it possible one of the governor's
463
00:31:05,439 --> 00:31:07,206
calls for assistance was heard?
464
00:31:09,298 --> 00:31:12,743
Reinforcements from a sister colony?
465
00:31:20,304 --> 00:31:22,554
Flint gave you command of his ship.
466
00:31:23,123 --> 00:31:24,253
Yes.
467
00:31:26,125 --> 00:31:29,844
You can count the things that Flint
and I agree upon on one hand.
468
00:31:31,315 --> 00:31:35,467
But among them is the sincere confusion
469
00:31:35,468 --> 00:31:38,970
as to why Charles invested
any time and energy in you.
470
00:31:38,971 --> 00:31:41,304
I suppose Flint's come to
see that there might be
471
00:31:41,305 --> 00:31:44,275
some capacity in you after all.
472
00:31:46,228 --> 00:31:47,539
And?
473
00:31:50,133 --> 00:31:51,282
And what?
474
00:31:52,256 --> 00:31:53,282
"And" as in it sounded
475
00:31:53,283 --> 00:31:55,322
as if there was more to that thought.
476
00:32:00,469 --> 00:32:02,843
That you might see yourself
agreeing with him again...
477
00:32:05,693 --> 00:32:06,876
about my capacity.
478
00:32:08,484 --> 00:32:10,134
There wasn't any more to
that thought, was there?
479
00:32:10,135 --> 00:32:11,801
Signal!
480
00:32:11,802 --> 00:32:14,271
On the flagship's mainmast!
481
00:32:21,496 --> 00:32:23,980
They're showing her
fleet identification,
482
00:32:23,981 --> 00:32:26,148
asking us to verify who we are.
483
00:32:26,149 --> 00:32:27,935
Get my log from below.
484
00:32:29,304 --> 00:32:31,514
You have the proper codes to respond?
485
00:32:33,131 --> 00:32:34,924
I do.
486
00:32:36,561 --> 00:32:37,588
Don't.
487
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,104
Raise the black instead.
488
00:32:42,099 --> 00:32:43,466
Raise the black?
489
00:32:43,467 --> 00:32:46,135
He believes we are beneath him,
490
00:32:46,136 --> 00:32:48,471
tactically incompetent.
491
00:32:48,472 --> 00:32:50,490
Why give him any reason to doubt it?
492
00:32:53,582 --> 00:32:57,663
To be underestimated
is an incredible gift.
493
00:33:08,009 --> 00:33:09,959
Signal the line. Divide the gun crews
494
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:11,127
and prepare the larboard batteries.
495
00:33:11,128 --> 00:33:12,294
Sir.
496
00:33:12,295 --> 00:33:13,996
Prepare the larboard batteries!
497
00:33:13,997 --> 00:33:16,298
Prepare the larboard batteries!
498
00:33:47,015 --> 00:33:48,848
And did she fight it?
499
00:33:51,252 --> 00:33:52,592
Your mother.
500
00:33:53,743 --> 00:33:55,461
Did she resist your being here?
501
00:33:56,790 --> 00:33:58,823
I believe she wanted to.
502
00:34:00,460 --> 00:34:04,411
I believe every part of her
being was calling out for it.
503
00:34:04,412 --> 00:34:06,497
Then why didn't she?
504
00:34:08,835 --> 00:34:11,790
She has spent so many years
protecting our people,
505
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:13,883
protecting me.
506
00:34:15,157 --> 00:34:17,158
To put it all in danger now...
507
00:34:17,159 --> 00:34:18,826
it is a necessary sacrifice
508
00:34:18,827 --> 00:34:20,679
if this war is to be won.
509
00:34:23,516 --> 00:34:26,951
But it violates everything she
understands herself to be.
510
00:34:29,856 --> 00:34:32,176
She let me go because she knows
511
00:34:32,566 --> 00:34:35,004
that if we survive this battle today,
512
00:34:35,005 --> 00:34:37,374
she will likely need to step aside
513
00:34:38,146 --> 00:34:39,980
and make room for someone better suited
514
00:34:39,981 --> 00:34:41,699
to do what must be done.
515
00:34:43,532 --> 00:34:46,492
It's a hard thing to look
your successor in the eye
516
00:34:47,489 --> 00:34:49,156
and know that their time is nearing
517
00:34:49,157 --> 00:34:51,242
while yours is almost through.
518
00:34:54,681 --> 00:34:57,498
But as far as successors go,
519
00:34:58,670 --> 00:35:00,834
your mother could do far worse.
520
00:35:03,037 --> 00:35:04,037
Ma'am!
521
00:35:18,503 --> 00:35:20,820
Aah!
522
00:35:23,156 --> 00:35:25,157
They'll fight to
the death to defend it.
523
00:35:25,158 --> 00:35:27,163
There's only 100 men, more or less,
524
00:35:27,164 --> 00:35:28,565
left behind to guard it.
525
00:35:28,566 --> 00:35:29,995
The rest are women and children.
526
00:35:29,996 --> 00:35:31,997
And the cache? It's being
guarded there as well?
527
00:35:31,998 --> 00:35:33,832
It's nearby. Buried.
528
00:35:33,833 --> 00:35:35,501
But the one of them who
knows where to find it
529
00:35:35,502 --> 00:35:37,503
is inside that camp,
530
00:35:37,504 --> 00:35:39,171
and he cannot run away.
531
00:35:39,172 --> 00:35:41,006
Get a message to the major.
532
00:35:41,007 --> 00:35:43,175
Tell him he can deploy his
men to this position.
533
00:35:43,176 --> 00:35:45,995
Let's finish this as
quickly as possible.
534
00:35:53,352 --> 00:35:54,735
Do you trust him?
535
00:35:54,736 --> 00:35:56,255
What's that?
536
00:35:56,256 --> 00:35:58,824
A few weeks ago, we had a
chance to sail with him.
537
00:35:58,825 --> 00:36:01,994
You said you'd always be
looking over your shoulder,
538
00:36:01,995 --> 00:36:04,163
worried he'd fuck us the
first chance he got.
539
00:36:04,164 --> 00:36:06,165
I will say this for him.
540
00:36:06,166 --> 00:36:07,332
In recent weeks,
541
00:36:07,333 --> 00:36:09,001
among the disturbing number of people
542
00:36:09,002 --> 00:36:11,503
who've tried to kill
one or the both of us,
543
00:36:11,504 --> 00:36:13,048
he is not among them.
544
00:36:14,006 --> 00:36:16,941
Charles was, in some
sense, a son to him,
545
00:36:16,942 --> 00:36:19,177
and Charles was, in some
sense, a brother to us.
546
00:36:19,178 --> 00:36:21,012
I couldn't tell you what
that makes us to him,
547
00:36:21,013 --> 00:36:23,181
but something, perhaps.
548
00:36:24,177 --> 00:36:26,584
Gun crews at the ready!
549
00:36:26,585 --> 00:36:28,853
Gun crews at the ready!
550
00:36:28,854 --> 00:36:30,188
See you on the other side.
551
00:36:32,024 --> 00:36:33,374
Always.
552
00:36:49,831 --> 00:36:52,309
Does he actually mean to
exchange broadsides with us?
553
00:36:52,310 --> 00:36:54,978
Pass word up the line.
All ships may fire at will.
554
00:36:54,979 --> 00:36:56,146
Yes, sir.
555
00:36:56,147 --> 00:36:57,580
Gun crews, prepare to engage!
556
00:36:57,581 --> 00:37:00,868
Larboard batteries may fire at will!
557
00:37:21,990 --> 00:37:23,772
Open the ports!
558
00:37:23,773 --> 00:37:25,358
Open the ports!
559
00:37:52,988 --> 00:37:55,504
Company, present!
560
00:37:55,505 --> 00:37:57,322
Fire!
561
00:38:00,528 --> 00:38:02,261
Fire!
562
00:38:04,499 --> 00:38:06,098
Aah!
563
00:38:07,902 --> 00:38:09,435
Aah!
564
00:38:22,850 --> 00:38:24,332
Defenders across the water
565
00:38:24,333 --> 00:38:26,201
have been rendered largely ineffective.
566
00:38:26,202 --> 00:38:29,370
With any luck, we'll have a
beachhead established in an hour,
567
00:38:29,371 --> 00:38:32,005
find Mr. Silver, the
fugitive Mr. Rackham,
568
00:38:32,006 --> 00:38:35,009
and have the cache in our
possession before the sun sets.
569
00:38:35,010 --> 00:38:36,176
Sir.
570
00:38:36,177 --> 00:38:38,011
Come.
571
00:38:48,174 --> 00:38:51,826
I once thought that to
lead men in this world,
572
00:38:51,827 --> 00:38:54,995
to be liked was just as good as feared,
573
00:38:54,996 --> 00:38:57,244
and that may very well be true.
574
00:38:58,500 --> 00:39:01,836
But to be both liked
and feared all at once
575
00:39:03,116 --> 00:39:05,189
is an entirely different
state of being...
576
00:39:06,926 --> 00:39:11,362
in which, I believe, at
this moment, I exist alone.
577
00:39:13,299 --> 00:39:16,850
The men need to know they're
in good favor with me.
578
00:39:16,851 --> 00:39:18,185
They need it,
579
00:39:18,186 --> 00:39:20,187
and there is nothing they won't do
580
00:39:20,188 --> 00:39:21,855
to make sure they have it.
581
00:39:22,751 --> 00:39:24,978
Mr. Dobbs will do what I ask of him.
582
00:39:25,704 --> 00:39:27,461
Fire!
583
00:39:27,462 --> 00:39:28,928
Pull everyone back.
584
00:39:28,929 --> 00:39:31,465
- Sir?
- Pull them back, now!
585
00:39:31,466 --> 00:39:33,133
He will lead Captain Hornigold
586
00:39:33,134 --> 00:39:34,968
exactly where I ask him to,
587
00:39:34,969 --> 00:39:36,102
of this I'm sure.
588
00:39:39,473 --> 00:39:43,026
But from there, it's up to you.
589
00:39:50,817 --> 00:39:52,818
We're being ambushed!
590
00:40:16,293 --> 00:40:19,028
Company, withdrawal!
591
00:40:31,175 --> 00:40:32,991
Fire!
592
00:40:37,881 --> 00:40:39,631
What the hell is he doing?
593
00:40:39,632 --> 00:40:41,333
Could he mean to board us?
594
00:40:41,334 --> 00:40:43,334
Order the larboard batteries to
concentrate their fire on that ship.
595
00:40:43,335 --> 00:40:44,948
And send word to the
Orion to do the same.
596
00:40:44,949 --> 00:40:45,837
Yes, sir.
597
00:40:45,838 --> 00:40:48,890
All crews, larboard batteries,
target the lead ship!
598
00:40:53,363 --> 00:40:54,896
What...?
599
00:41:07,578 --> 00:41:10,995
Fire! MAN: Fire!
600
00:41:10,996 --> 00:41:12,830
Aim ahead a little more!
601
00:41:12,831 --> 00:41:14,164
Fire!
602
00:41:14,165 --> 00:41:16,834
Lead him!
603
00:41:16,835 --> 00:41:18,852
Aah!
604
00:41:24,860 --> 00:41:26,193
Aah!
605
00:41:35,504 --> 00:41:38,171
Get to the stern chasers! Now!
606
00:41:43,178 --> 00:41:45,562
Fire!
607
00:42:00,528 --> 00:42:03,012
Sir! It's the Orion!
608
00:42:03,013 --> 00:42:04,179
She's been overrun!
609
00:42:04,180 --> 00:42:06,849
Get the gun crews to resume firing.
610
00:42:10,905 --> 00:42:12,404
How, sir?
611
00:42:14,809 --> 00:42:16,959
Sir?
612
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,461
Shall we prepare to repel boarders?
613
00:42:19,462 --> 00:42:23,465
Cut our...
Our anchor cables
614
00:42:23,466 --> 00:42:25,351
and signal the line to retreat.
615
00:42:54,764 --> 00:42:56,382
Come on!
616
00:43:01,155 --> 00:43:03,221
Aah!
617
00:43:34,821 --> 00:43:37,971
Company, retreat!
618
00:43:37,972 --> 00:43:40,173
Back! Fall back!
619
00:43:40,174 --> 00:43:42,475
Company, retreat!
620
00:43:42,476 --> 00:43:43,894
Retreat!
621
00:43:46,165 --> 00:43:48,315
Tell your governor!
622
00:43:48,316 --> 00:43:51,001
You tell him I'm coming!
623
00:43:55,341 --> 00:43:59,026
Let us say there is some
merit to your argument.
624
00:43:59,027 --> 00:44:03,180
Let us say that Mr. Dobbs
will do as you ask of him.
625
00:44:04,350 --> 00:44:06,333
I would have to admit in that case
626
00:44:06,334 --> 00:44:10,002
that the world has
shifted beneath our feet
627
00:44:10,003 --> 00:44:13,240
in a most startling way.
628
00:44:13,980 --> 00:44:16,174
But in terms of our future
629
00:44:16,175 --> 00:44:19,278
and the danger that you
believe you may pose to me,
630
00:44:20,314 --> 00:44:22,048
bear this in mind.
631
00:44:22,970 --> 00:44:24,990
I have survived starvation,
632
00:44:26,153 --> 00:44:27,600
a tempest,
633
00:44:28,322 --> 00:44:30,323
pirate hunters,
634
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,159
jealous captains, mutinous crews,
635
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,161
angry lords,
636
00:44:35,162 --> 00:44:37,203
a queen, a king,
637
00:44:37,204 --> 00:44:39,849
and the goddamn British navy.
638
00:44:41,853 --> 00:44:46,338
So to whatever extent
you may be concerned
639
00:44:46,339 --> 00:44:48,491
that some day we will clash,
640
00:44:51,029 --> 00:44:54,721
worried that though today we be friends,
641
00:44:54,722 --> 00:44:58,701
some day you will have no
choice but to be my end,
642
00:45:01,372 --> 00:45:04,174
I wouldn't worry too much.
643
00:45:07,145 --> 00:45:10,296
They call him John the Giant.
644
00:45:10,297 --> 00:45:12,798
They say that he's seven foot tall.
645
00:45:12,799 --> 00:45:14,466
They say that he moves
better on that leg
646
00:45:14,467 --> 00:45:17,135
than most do with the
ones that God gave them.
647
00:45:17,136 --> 00:45:18,688
Why would they say that?
648
00:45:20,491 --> 00:45:23,141
A man walks into a tavern
out of the dead of night,
649
00:45:23,142 --> 00:45:25,143
threatens the entirety of the island,
650
00:45:25,144 --> 00:45:28,675
and then proceeds to remove a
man's head with a metal shoe.
651
00:45:28,676 --> 00:45:30,482
I say that's a story that
stands a strong chance
652
00:45:30,483 --> 00:45:32,116
of seeing itself embellished.
653
00:45:32,117 --> 00:45:34,486
Do we care that it isn't remotely true?
654
00:45:34,487 --> 00:45:37,418
Doesn't matter what's true.
Not now, at any rate.
655
00:45:38,491 --> 00:45:41,187
We're creating the appearance
of a man out of nothing.
656
00:45:42,574 --> 00:45:45,964
The appearance of a man that the
resistance against the English
657
00:45:45,965 --> 00:45:48,300
feels compelled to rally around.
658
00:45:48,301 --> 00:45:50,969
We'll introduce him.
We'll put flesh on him.
659
00:45:50,970 --> 00:45:52,503
We'll give him a soul.
660
00:45:52,504 --> 00:45:54,138
But if the street wants to invest him
661
00:45:54,139 --> 00:45:56,474
with more than we can on our own,
662
00:45:56,475 --> 00:45:58,092
I won't fight them about it.
663
00:45:59,496 --> 00:46:02,146
But hat name isn't
doing anything for us.
664
00:46:02,147 --> 00:46:03,848
We'll have to see about that.
665
00:46:04,674 --> 00:46:06,417
For those of you who have not heard,
666
00:46:06,418 --> 00:46:08,486
the governor has imposed martial law
667
00:46:08,487 --> 00:46:13,023
upon all of Nassau Town in response to
the murder of Captain Throckmorton.
668
00:46:13,619 --> 00:46:16,159
He asks that I convey to
the rest of his council
669
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:18,830
the contents of the letter
left for him today,
670
00:46:18,831 --> 00:46:22,515
taking responsibility for
Captain Throckmorton's murder.
671
00:46:26,990 --> 00:46:28,718
"I was no one,
672
00:46:29,474 --> 00:46:32,377
and then you came, and my island fell,
673
00:46:33,143 --> 00:46:34,495
and I became something else."
674
00:46:35,531 --> 00:46:37,189
Why not Flint?
675
00:46:38,315 --> 00:46:39,982
Flint?
676
00:46:39,983 --> 00:46:41,485
You want to put a man forward
677
00:46:41,486 --> 00:46:42,986
as the face of our efforts
678
00:46:42,987 --> 00:46:44,822
to oust the English from the island,
679
00:46:45,494 --> 00:46:47,156
why not use Flint?
680
00:46:47,157 --> 00:46:49,325
They all know him already.
They all fear him already.
681
00:46:49,326 --> 00:46:51,160
I've lived too long dependent upon Flint
682
00:46:51,161 --> 00:46:53,496
to be the one to hold
our ranks together.
683
00:46:53,497 --> 00:46:55,608
It's time we finally had an alternative.
684
00:46:56,166 --> 00:46:59,335
"On the night I confiscated
the pardon rolls,
685
00:46:59,336 --> 00:47:01,542
the night I started becoming,
686
00:47:02,048 --> 00:47:03,472
I made clear my position
687
00:47:03,473 --> 00:47:04,807
that there would be two sorts of men
688
00:47:04,808 --> 00:47:06,692
on the island going forward...
689
00:47:07,978 --> 00:47:09,478
Those like Captain Vane,
690
00:47:09,479 --> 00:47:12,315
determined to stand by their
oath to the very end,
691
00:47:12,316 --> 00:47:14,060
and those like Captain Throckmorton,
692
00:47:14,818 --> 00:47:17,014
happy to be the first to betray it.
693
00:47:17,988 --> 00:47:21,890
And thus, as always, to traitors..."
694
00:47:21,891 --> 00:47:23,826
Does he even know?
695
00:47:23,827 --> 00:47:25,494
Mr. Silver?
696
00:47:25,495 --> 00:47:28,877
Does he have any idea
you're using his name?
697
00:47:29,833 --> 00:47:32,168
What flows forth from this house,
698
00:47:32,169 --> 00:47:33,545
starting tonight,
699
00:47:34,338 --> 00:47:36,189
is a new story for Nassau.
700
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:40,670
I've watched her follow mad men.
701
00:47:41,737 --> 00:47:43,696
I've watched her follow rich men.
702
00:47:44,831 --> 00:47:47,240
I've watched her bow before tyrants.
703
00:47:47,951 --> 00:47:51,320
But now it's time she had a king.
704
00:47:52,121 --> 00:47:54,222
When we're ready, when he's ready,
705
00:47:54,944 --> 00:47:57,343
he'll step into the role
we've created for him...
706
00:47:59,981 --> 00:48:02,023
and lead an impossible army
707
00:48:02,966 --> 00:48:04,850
into an unwinnable war...
708
00:48:08,322 --> 00:48:09,668
and win it.
709
00:48:10,473 --> 00:48:12,807
"Captain Throckmorton's black spot
710
00:48:12,808 --> 00:48:14,534
will not be the last.
711
00:48:15,310 --> 00:48:17,882
Ignore it, and join him.
712
00:48:18,481 --> 00:48:23,578
Heed it, and reclaim
your place amongst us.
713
00:48:25,171 --> 00:48:27,324
Until then, I remain...
714
00:48:28,791 --> 00:48:33,344
Long John Silver."
715
