00:03:00Come on out!
00:03:12What is that?
00:03:13It's nothing.
00:03:14That doesn't seem like nothing.
00:03:18Maybe when Captain Flint gets here, we can let him decide.
00:03:22He wouldn't want to do that.
00:03:23Huh?
00:03:24Why not?

00:09:17No.
00:09:18No.
00:09:19No.
00:09:20Help me.
00:09:23Hello.
00:09:24He couldn't handle the thought of what you might do to him.
00:09:31I, on the other hand, would very much like to join your crew.
00:09:37My name is John Silver, and I happen to be a very good cook.
00:09:52Know this.
00:09:54Now that this fight is over,
00:09:57you have nothing more to fear from us today.
00:10:01Because we know this fight was not of your making.
00:10:05It was the choice of our true enemy.
00:10:09Your true enemy.
00:10:11The tyrant captain!
00:10:17Many of us once sailed on ships like this one.
00:10:21We know what it is to be slaves to his whims.
00:10:24His violence.
00:10:26His shit wages!
00:10:29His insufferable stupidity!
00:10:34So we've made for ourselves a different life.
00:10:37Where we don't rely on wages.
00:10:40We own a stake.
00:10:42And where our pleasure isn't a sin,
00:10:45it's a virtue.
00:10:47We also know what it's like to see our brothers die
00:10:51in the service of no end other than a tyrant.
00:10:53This one wants to join. Says he can cook.
00:10:57Well, if he keeps that up, this one won't be the only one looking to join.
00:11:00Today is a...
00:11:01Look at him. Thinks he's captain already.
00:11:03Today is a day of disposed giving.
00:11:06And they will be punished!
00:11:18We made a full sweep of the hold.
00:11:20We found eight more casks of whale oil.
00:11:24That's all?
00:11:27Total tally, four hundred.
00:11:29Five. We managed to sell the tobacco.
00:11:32Cameron's broken his arm. Duffy's been shot in the leg.
00:11:36After injury payments, we will net...
00:11:38just under eight dollars per man.
00:11:40Eight dollars?
00:11:42The crew will not be happy.
00:11:44When are they ever?
00:11:51When their end is a hell of a lot richer than eight dollars.
00:11:55Here.
00:11:56Take a look.
00:11:59Captain's log.
00:12:01It's all there.
00:12:03Vasquez, Port Royal.
00:12:06Told you this was the shit.
00:12:11Where is the schedule?
00:12:16Minor obstacle.
00:12:18But we're getting close.
00:12:21Let me see if I have this right.
00:12:24This is the fourth prize in a row
00:12:25for which the profits will barely exceed
00:12:28the expenses it took to win it.
00:12:31Singleton's out there trying to convince your crew
00:12:34to torture that poor bastard of a captain
00:12:36simply because he hasn't worked out how to get them to do it to you.
00:12:40All's well.
00:12:42Because you've discovered that the information we can't tell anybody we're looking for
00:12:45exists on a page that we don't have.
00:12:49Don't have yet.
00:12:54Mr. Duffy is dead.
00:12:56I removed the leg, but we lost too much blood.
00:13:04I've done it!
00:13:13Yeah!
00:13:16Is this necessary?
00:13:24We've paid a heavy toll today.
00:13:27And for what?
00:13:28We all know the prize won't come close to evening the scales.
00:13:32Someone ought to pay the difference.
00:13:35Talk to me about recruits.
00:13:45What's he doing?
00:13:46Just... give him a minute.
00:13:50Where's the schedule?
00:13:54What are you talking about?
00:13:56The page that was torn from your log.
00:14:02If you know where it is, now would be the time to say so.
00:14:06Five?
00:14:08You want to bring on five more men?
00:14:10The carpenter, two carpenter's mates,
00:14:12the gunner's mate and the cook.
00:14:14Hard to refuse a skilled hand.
00:14:17Is it their hands you want?
00:14:19Or their votes?
00:14:21What a cunning bastard you are.
00:14:24Squarely in the captain's pocket,
00:14:26yet you've still got the crew believing you're their advocate.
00:14:29Shrewdest quartermaster I've ever come across.
00:14:32I wonder if you'll afford me the same wide berth you give that bastard,
00:14:36once I take his place.
00:14:40You get the cook.
00:14:42That's all the ship can afford right now.
00:14:46I told you I don't have him.
00:14:48I know my men must have taken him.
00:14:50They all searched.
00:14:51Get me the man Newmore, I tell you.
00:14:52Call off your men.
00:15:03You can't, can you?
00:15:05You're their captain.
00:15:06You have no control over them.
00:15:10How long before you're the one they tie to the mast?
00:15:18I won't give you the satisfaction of crying out.
00:15:22Good for you.
00:15:23Where are you going?
00:15:27Justice is about to be done.
00:15:30And you turn your back.
00:15:38Sail!
00:15:49Man of war.
00:15:51Royal Navy.
00:15:57Scarborough.
00:15:59Scarborough port's in Boston.
00:16:02Not today, she doesn't.
00:16:04She's got the wind of us.
00:16:06Cut us loose and get us out of the way.
00:16:18Get out of the way!
00:16:30Morbid.
00:16:33Randall.
00:16:35We've taken on a new cook.
00:16:41Randall, we were clear.
00:16:43This job was only temporary.
00:16:44There's still plenty of you to do.
00:16:49It'll be all right.
00:16:50So, er, both watches are messed together at six bells.
00:16:53Don't be late.
00:16:54Any supplies you need, see your friend,
00:16:55he'll fund you out the ship maintenance account.
00:16:57Er, one more thing.
00:16:59No-one gets any special treatment from you of any kind.
00:17:02No extra rations, no preferences in cuts of meat.
00:17:04Not for me, not for the quartermaster, not for the captain.
00:17:07Here, everyone is equal, all right?
00:17:10Even him?
00:17:14Randall was this ship's boasts.
00:17:17Randall was this ship's potion
00:17:18before he got beaten to within an inch of his life for taking a prize.
00:17:22He lost his wits,
00:17:23but not our loyalty.
00:17:26We like Randall.
00:17:28You?
00:17:30We'll see.
00:17:46Come on.
00:18:17He has the votes.
00:18:19Brett Cullen?
00:18:20Singleton.
00:18:21He has the votes to remove you as captain.
00:18:23Not every last one.
00:18:24We haven't finished Camerson yet, but when he gets ashore,
00:18:27he doesn't have to be sneaky about it.
00:18:28He'll get what he needs.
00:18:30I thought you said it would never get to this.
00:18:32Now, hang on.
00:18:33I thought you said you'd put loyal men in all the right places
00:18:35so the crew would never turn.
00:18:36No, no.
00:18:37I never said never. I'm too old to be using...
00:18:39Don't give me that shit.
00:18:41I told you there would be some lean days while we track Parrish's ship.
00:18:44You said the crew would weather it.
00:18:46Days.
00:18:47Lean days.
00:18:49It's been three months with no profits to speak of,
00:18:51and nobody knows what it's all been for
00:18:52because you don't trust them with the truth.
00:18:54I don't trust them with the truth.
00:18:57So, here we are.
00:19:05Singleton.
00:19:08They think he has any idea how to put money in their pockets.
00:19:10All they know or care about Singleton right now
00:19:13is that he isn't you.
00:19:17I just need a few more days.
00:19:19The page is gone.
00:19:21It could be anywhere.
00:19:22What makes you think all you need is a few more days?
00:19:28I'm gonna go and see Richard.
00:19:30He can help me recreate the schedule.
00:19:33Richard Guthrie?
00:19:35You think he's gonna help you?
00:19:37Yes. Yes, I do.
00:19:39That's just for fun.
00:19:40Say that he doesn't.
00:19:42What then?
00:19:43Then I'll forget about the schedule
00:19:45and go back to hunting fat, lazy merchantmen,
00:19:48and everyone will be content.
00:19:50This is one of those times
00:19:52where we pretend that we both don't know that you're lying.
00:20:01Don't fall.
00:20:02We're home.
00:20:04Don't fall.
00:20:05We're home.
00:20:33Hey, you.
00:21:04Is this English soil?
00:21:06It was.
00:21:07Once.
00:21:08Now it ain't.
00:21:09Whose is it?
00:21:13Ours!
00:21:20Wait, I don't understand.
00:21:21The captain asked for me to go.
00:21:23Yes, and I was speaking.
00:21:25He doesn't know I'm coming, does he?
00:21:27No, but I have business here, so the job falls to you.
00:21:30And what is the job exactly?
00:21:32Captain's gonna ask Richard Guthrie for a favour.
00:21:34Mr Guthrie is going to say no.
00:21:36When that happens, the captain will most likely react poorly.
00:21:39Your job is to restrain him.
00:21:43Restrain him, you say?
00:21:45No cargo moves off this island
00:21:47without Mr Guthrie's ships and connections.
00:21:50The last crew that ran afoul of him
00:21:52couldn't buy or sell shit for two months.
00:21:54That's an outcome I'd like to avoid.
00:21:56That's an outcome I'd like to avoid.
00:22:00He never listens to me.
00:22:04I'm such a highly regarded member of this crew,
00:22:07and I can assure you the captain
00:22:09regards your inputs more than you know.
00:22:14Billy's going with you.
00:22:16Who's Billy?
00:22:19Come on!
00:22:24What exactly happens to all this?
00:22:27Goes to the Guthries.
00:22:29They pay up front for it,
00:22:31take it someplace civilised and sell it.
00:22:33The Guthries?
00:22:34Mate, no offence, but the faster we get this loaded,
00:22:37the faster I can get up the hill
00:22:39and into the arms of my sweet, sweet Charlotte.
00:22:48Come on.
00:23:05Your recipes.
00:23:07I left them with our captain for safekeeping,
00:23:09but I don't see them in the rest of the journals.
00:23:11All the volumes from the prize are here,
00:23:14unless the captain took it,
00:23:16but in this case, it's in his cabin, on the ship.
00:23:19He likes his books.
00:23:28Is that him?
00:23:30Is this necessary? He's just a cook.
00:23:32He meets the new ones, no exceptions.
00:23:36Um, what's going on?
00:23:38Who wants to meet me?
00:23:40Blackbeard.
00:23:46Come on.
00:23:58Whatever you do,
00:24:00don't show fear.
00:24:16Come on.
00:24:32You're not Blackbeard.
00:24:39Oh, I see.
00:24:41If you get lost in there, give us a yell.
00:24:47Come on.
00:24:55Wars are wars, and you are ours.
00:25:16Come on.
00:25:31I need a moment with your boss.
00:25:35Not a good time.
00:25:36Get the fuck out.
00:25:38If you want to run at first sight of trouble, be my guest,
00:25:40but don't expect me to fucking help you.
00:25:43And that goes for all of you.
00:25:45If you want to hunt, my door is open.
00:25:47But if the mere whiff of the navy is too much for you,
00:25:50then God bless and get the fuck out.
00:25:52Fuck yourself, cunt.
00:26:03Did you just tell me to fuck myself?
00:26:10Mr. Scott, who is this man?
00:26:12Mr. Sanderson.
00:26:13Cruises with Captain Burgess of the Trinity.
00:26:16How much was their last haul?
00:26:18Nearly 1,000 in profit.
00:26:20Best tally in months.
00:26:26Well, Mr. Sanderson.
00:26:29Pleased to be in your company.
00:26:32Do you know why?
00:26:36Because you're an earner.
00:26:38Can I tell you what happens when I stand near an earner?
00:26:44My pussy gets wet.
00:26:49In which case, I will go fuck myself.
00:26:57Mistress Guthrie.
00:26:59What the fuck do you want?
00:27:02I wish you'd get control of your men.
00:27:04They come in here spouting off
00:27:06they've seen His Majesty's navy out there,
00:27:08and I have three crews pulling orders
00:27:10because they haven't got enough balls to get back in the water.
00:27:12I'll make sure to keep that in mind, ma'am.
00:27:14But right now, the Scarborough is the least of my concerns.
00:27:18We have an agitator.
00:27:21What the fuck does that mean?
00:27:23The challenge of the captaincy of the Walrus.
00:27:25Capitalizing on our friend's recent rough patch.
00:27:30I expect him to call a vote soon.
00:27:33And I expect him to be close.
00:27:35Flint's got morale problems.
00:27:37What do you want me to do about it?
00:27:40I need money to shore up support.
00:27:44You want a loan?
00:27:45Flint's made you more money than any captain here.
00:27:48Not lately, he hasn't.
00:27:50Yeah, well, that will change.
00:27:51But mark my words, without that money,
00:27:53the most valuable captain on this island will be out of a job tomorrow.
00:27:59Think of it as a...
00:28:01investment in the future.
00:28:03You steal cargo at the end of a sword.
00:28:06We sell that cargo to markets that will never have you.
00:28:09When you are strong, you are a necessary evil.
00:28:12When you are not strong, you are like the soon-to-be-dead.
00:28:17But what you are not, ever,
00:28:20is a sound investment.
00:28:26How much would you need?
00:28:33A thousand pieces of eight.
00:28:35Give or take?
00:28:48Take this divergent.
00:28:52You'll see that you get what you need.
00:28:54Thank you, ma'am.
00:29:03What?
00:29:04I'm wondering what it is...
00:29:06exactly you think you just purchased.
00:29:09It's my money, isn't it?
00:29:11Must I answer for how I spend it?
00:29:14For me? No.
00:29:16For this enterprise belongs to your father.
00:29:19And I do not believe he would approve of this...
00:29:23investment.
00:29:25Well, then I suppose it's a good thing that my father isn't here.
00:29:35Mr. Smith to see Mr. Guthrie.
00:29:40He's not expecting me.
00:30:05What does the crew think of me, Billy?
00:30:09Beg your pardon?
00:30:10You're the ship's postman.
00:30:12You know what's said behind my back?
00:30:16Um...
00:30:17I know they've always found me...
00:30:20aloof, too educated.
00:30:24But now it seems they feel I'm...
00:30:26too weak.
00:30:29I was gonna say unlucky.
00:30:32So that's the thinking.
00:30:34We've been attacking ships with light loads because I'm too weak to do otherwise.
00:30:39Is that what you think?
00:30:42I...
00:30:45What the hell are you doing here?
00:30:49Now, is that any way to greet a friend?
00:30:52I much prefer that way.
00:30:54A sugar factor from Carolina.
00:30:57Who purchases stolen cargo from you because he trusts me.
00:31:02Because I have cultivated his confidence.
00:31:06And because I keep him from ever having to lay eyes on you.
00:31:11Then the sooner we get down to business, the better.
00:31:37A whore for every finger on your hand.
00:31:40But your eyes keep refusing to this.
00:31:43Tell me, what is it that is so precious to you?
00:31:47One scream will bring Mr. Noonan.
00:31:49Bring him.
00:31:50I'll let him know his whores like to steal from their customers.
00:31:54You can let your new captain know you have withheld something of great value
00:31:57that rightly belonged to his latest prize.
00:32:04So, what now?
00:32:08Business to sell, is it not?
00:32:10But you cannot know who best to sell it to.
00:32:13I can know that.
00:32:15And what's that going to cost me?
00:32:17Half.
00:32:21Pleasure should be shared equally.
00:32:23It's the only way to avoid hurt feelings.
00:32:27Look, this deal, it's really a terrible idea.
00:32:33There's so many ways it could go wrong.
00:32:35Me, I can't help myself.
00:32:37I see an opportunity, I take it.
00:32:41It's a sickness, truly.
00:32:44But you, you can still walk away.
00:32:47Bien.
00:32:49Now tell me what it is.
00:32:54I don't know.
00:33:18Get away.
00:33:24You are not going to throw your support behind Singleton.
00:33:29I wondered when this visit would come.
00:33:54The vote's closer than you think.
00:33:56I know this, because I bought back 16 votes today.
00:34:02Nelson's men are always for sale.
00:34:04Payne will do, not with a Welsh.
00:34:07As of now, Singleton is only up eight votes.
00:34:11And you and your men, all nine.
00:34:15So?
00:34:16Captain's fate is in our hands.
00:34:18In your hands.
00:34:19Your men vote with you.
00:34:23And how much are you willing to pay for those votes?
00:34:28Well, nothing.
00:34:31Spent everything I had getting this far.
00:34:36Think about your men.
00:34:38Think about their future.
00:34:40Is it their future you wish to protect?
00:34:44Or your friends?
00:34:48What difference does it make?
00:34:54And you will pay us, obviously.
00:34:56From the very first price we take.
00:35:02I assume that went without saying.
00:35:23You're in a festive mood.
00:35:29What do you want, Rackham?
00:35:31I'd hoped to toast your coronation as captain of the wars.
00:35:35Alas, I'm not so sure that's where we're headed.
00:35:54You should keep your distance till I signal you to return for me.
00:35:58If anything should happen and I don't return soon...
00:36:00I leave.
00:36:02Small girl.
00:36:23Let's go.
00:36:46Let me tell you a story.
00:36:48About a Spaniard named Vasquez.
00:36:53A few weeks ago, he staggers into a tavern on Port Royal.
00:36:57Takes a seat next to an English merchant captain.
00:37:01Vasquez, it turns out, is dying.
00:37:04Bleeding to death from a knife wound to the belly.
00:37:08The knife wound was courtesy of his former employer.
00:37:12La Casa del Contricio in Seville.
00:37:15Colonial intelligence?
00:37:16Navy, more specifically.
00:37:19One of their top agents in the Americas.
00:37:21Responsible for the security of one particular ship.
00:37:27A ship with a cargo so rich, the King of Spain is very anxious to see it launched.
00:37:35Vasquez warned that it was too late.
00:37:37Storm season was upon them and no escort could be mustered to guard her.
00:37:42But his superiors demanded that he sign off.
00:37:45They advised him that if he couldn't arrange for an escort...
00:37:47...he should plot a course for the ship unknown to anyone but our captain.
00:37:51And consider that route to be a state secret of the highest order.
00:37:56When Vasquez refused and threatened to report his concerns to the court...
00:38:01...things got ugly.
00:38:07The ship in question?
00:38:12Arca del Limón.
00:38:13Arca del Limón.
00:38:16The largest Spanish treasure galleon in the Americas.
00:38:20According to Vasquez...
00:38:22...total cargo in excess of five million dollars.
00:38:29Marvelous story, Captain.
00:38:33And how exactly did you come to hear it?
00:38:36A spy and my employee in Port Royal overheard the conversation.
00:38:40I must admit I harbored my doubts as to its authenticity right up until yesterday...
00:38:46...when I took the merchant captain's ship and found Vasquez's story neatly written into his log.
00:38:54Most impressive.
00:38:57It sounds like your plan is neatly resolved.
00:39:00What could you possibly want from me?
00:39:03Not quite entirely resolved.
00:39:05A page was torn from the log with the Urca's course and schedule written on it.
00:39:10Now, I could recreate it from what's left, but I'd need help.
00:39:14Someone with expert knowledge of Spanish operations.
00:39:20Your man in Havana.
00:39:23I need you to make an introduction.
00:39:29Absolutely not.
00:39:31Absolutely not.
00:39:37Five million Spanish dollars.
00:39:43When I take that ship, you stand to gain.
00:39:45When you take it.
00:39:47Do you have any idea how heavily armed that ship is?
00:39:51Even without an escort.
00:39:52The risk is all mine.
00:39:54The risk is not all yours.
00:39:56If I were to even make inquiries about this with colonial intelligence, they'd see me dead.
00:40:02You may have nothing to lose.
00:40:05But I have a future planned I'm not so willing to throw away.
00:40:11Then you may myself blame.
00:40:14I will have that name.
00:40:20Billy, put your pistol on Mr. Guthrie here.
00:40:27The name, please.
00:40:29I'm telling you, it is simply out of the question.
00:40:33Captain!
00:40:34The name, please.
00:40:36I'm telling you, it is simply out of the question.
00:40:41Captain!
00:40:52Hold there!
00:40:53Aye, Captain!
00:40:57What is it?
00:41:04Captain Hume of His Majesty's ship, the Scarborough.
00:41:12Captain Hume.
00:41:14You've caught me at business.
00:41:16I must ask you to return another day.
00:41:19My apologies, Mr. Guthrie.
00:41:22May I ask, what sort of business?
00:41:26I'm sorry?
00:41:27I ask, what sort of business you're conducting with these men?
00:41:31Sugar merchants from the colonies.
00:41:34With business, I'd just as soon conclude without interruption.
00:41:38So please, if you'll excuse us.
00:41:41Tell me something, Mr. Guthrie.
00:41:44Do you have gossip here?
00:41:46Gossip?
00:41:48I've often wondered if it can survive in so remote a location.
00:41:52You see, gossip is what holds civilization together.
00:41:56It reinforces shame.
00:41:59And without shame, well, the world is a very dangerous place.
00:42:04I'm sorry.
00:42:06I don't understand.
00:42:08Do you know what the gossip is in London about you?
00:42:13The gossip is that you make your profits selling ill-gotten cargo.
00:42:18Stolen by the pirates of Providence Island.
00:42:22There's no truth to that.
00:42:25We'll certainly find out, won't we?
00:42:28Take them into custody. All of them.
00:42:35No! No!
00:42:46You told me you and your men were with me.
00:42:48You gave me your word.
00:42:50I do what's best for my family.
00:42:52I'm what's best for your family.
00:42:54Flint has fucked us off long enough. Can't you see that?
00:43:04I'm sorry.
00:43:35Captain Vane.
00:43:44Do I even want to know?
00:43:46It's been a long day.
00:43:48But I am on one boat.
00:43:50Looks like Flint is safe.
00:43:52I'm sure he'll be all right.
00:43:54I'm sure he'll be all right.
00:43:56I'm sure he'll be all right.
00:43:58I'm sure he'll be all right.
00:44:00I'm sure he'll be all right.
00:44:01But I am on one boat.
00:44:03Looks like Flint is safe.
00:44:16Mr. Gates.
00:44:23When he didn't return,
00:44:25I came looking for him.
00:44:27I found him here.
00:44:28He said one word before he died.
00:44:31Vane.
00:44:34Damn butcher.
00:44:37What is he figuring for a clever one?
00:44:40I know what you're thinking.
00:44:43We lose that fight.
00:44:45At least today.
00:44:49Fuck that.
00:44:50Eleanor.
00:44:52Eleanor!
00:44:53Eleanor!
00:45:05Awfully pleased with himself, isn't he?
00:45:08Why shouldn't he be?
00:45:10With Mosiah gone,
00:45:11Flint no longer holds the votes to remain captain.
00:45:14And once the Walruses men realize Mr. Singleton's limitations,
00:45:18we'll have a host of talented defectors eager to swell our ranks.
00:45:21And he only gets the stronger.
00:45:24He doesn't get shit without you bringing up that Singleton business in the first place.
00:45:28Yes.
00:45:30We all have our roles to play.
00:45:35I want to fuck.
00:45:37What? Because of what I just said?
00:45:40Fuck's it matter to you?
00:45:42All right, then.
00:45:47Miss Guthrie!
00:45:51Miss Guthrie!
00:45:52Fuck.
00:46:18Now,
00:46:19would you like to tell me what that was all about?
00:46:23You fucked me tonight.
00:46:25Flint, his captaincy, I had an interest.
00:46:29Go live.
00:46:31You'll make it right.
00:46:33Why would I do that?
00:46:34Because if you don't, you're finished here.
00:46:36I won't sell another ounce of your cargo.
00:46:40See how long you last as captain when your crew can't get paid.
00:46:43Eleanor,
00:46:44your father sells my cargo.
00:46:46Whatever it is you're so upset about,
00:46:48I doubt he feels the same.
00:46:52When I tell him you put our biggest earner out of business,
00:46:54he'll...
00:46:55He'll remind you that Flint hasn't been your biggest earner in quite some time.
00:46:59He'll also be reminded of what you've always known but never accepted.
00:47:03That if forced,
00:47:05your father will always choose profits over daughters.
00:47:13Hey, your father,
00:47:14I wouldn't blame you.
00:47:16Hey, me too, if you'd like.
00:47:18And if you feel the need, cling to Flint
00:47:20and his legend,
00:47:21in a past the rest of us have long outgrown.
00:47:24But make no mistake about it,
00:47:27whatever future this place has left,
00:47:30I'm it.
00:47:32And if you ever challenge me again in front of my crew,
00:47:36I may just forget that I loved you once.
00:47:50You found a supplier?
00:47:52Patience, mon cher.
00:47:54Few here are willing to cross your captain.
00:47:57And those who have a mind must be approached with caution.
00:48:11Excuse me.
00:48:20Excuse me.
00:48:48Who did this?
00:48:51Him.
00:48:54I started it.
00:49:09Why would you do this?
00:49:10When the sea grows rough,
00:49:13you come to Max.
00:49:19Max is your harbour.
00:49:22It's all coming apart.
00:49:26This place, I can feel it slipping away.
00:49:29It's all coming apart.
00:49:31It's all coming apart.
00:49:33It's all coming apart.
00:49:35It's all coming apart.
00:49:37It's all coming apart.
00:49:38It's all coming apart.
00:49:48You are so ready to see the worst.
00:49:57You cannot see
00:49:59what is right in front of your nose.
00:50:08♪♪
00:50:18♪♪
00:50:38The world is so full of surprises.
00:50:43Let it surprise you.
00:50:47Oh, boy.
00:50:49♪♪
00:50:59♪♪
00:51:09What are you doing?
00:51:17I don't believe any of the men have ever met him face-to-face.
00:51:20We'll need to find a safe place to stash him
00:51:22before he comes to and starts talking.
00:51:24But in the meantime, I certainly don't want his clothes giving him away.
00:51:29You're gonna pretend that isn't Richard Guthrie?
00:51:32Soon word of Guthrie's arrest will hit the customs houses
00:51:35of Charleston, New York, eventually Boston.
00:51:39Sooner than later,
00:51:41NASA will be unable to sell to any legitimate market in the Americas.
00:51:45I don't want the men panicked about that
00:51:47when I need them focused on the Urca.
00:51:50Jesus, can you hear yourself?
00:51:53You spent months lying to us about what it is we're hunting out here.
00:51:58And now when it's clear it can't possibly succeed,
00:52:00you want to keep lying.
00:52:06Maybe Singleton is right. Maybe it's time we made a change.
00:52:16Think carefully.
00:52:19What lies ahead, Mr. Singleton cannot see you through.
00:52:22And what is that?
00:52:25There's a war coming, boy.
00:52:26One ship isn't a war.
00:52:27One ship isn't what's coming.
00:52:30That man Hume, the captain of the Scarborough, told you as much.
00:52:34When a king brands us pirates,
00:52:37he doesn't mean to make us adversaries.
00:52:39He doesn't mean to make us criminals.
00:52:42He means to make us monsters.
00:52:45For that's the only way his God-fearing, tax-paying subjects
00:52:49can make sense of men who keep what is theirs and fear no one.
00:52:53When I say there's a war coming,
00:52:56I don't mean with the Scarborough.
00:52:58I don't mean with King George or England.
00:53:02Civilization is coming.
00:53:05And it means to exterminate us.
00:53:10If we are to survive,
00:53:12we must unite behind our own king.
00:53:17You have no kings here.
00:53:20I am your king.
00:53:31I am your king.
00:53:50The crew's assembled for council.
00:53:52Mr. Singleton has called for a vote
00:53:54to select himself as the new captain of this crew.
00:54:00Come on.
00:54:07What happened with Richard?
00:54:14Oh, Jesus.
00:54:30I thought you said you'd deal with this.
00:54:33It fell through.
00:54:38You need to figure out what you're going to say to him.
00:54:41I don't care about anything I have to say.
00:54:43Well, you need to make him care.
00:54:45Or I don't know what happens next.
00:54:53I can stall him for a few more minutes.
00:55:00And I am sorry.
00:55:15Oh, fuck!
00:55:29Oh, fuck!
00:55:59I'm sorry.
00:56:02For the short hauls.
00:56:04For the trouble I've caused.
00:56:06But most importantly,
00:56:08for the disregard, it seems, I've shown you.
00:56:13The most important element of a healthy ship is trust.
00:56:18Trust is the most important element of a healthy ship.
00:56:24The most important element of a healthy ship is trust.
00:56:29Trust between men.
00:56:31Trust between captain and crew.
00:56:35Without it,
00:56:38a ship is doomed.
00:56:43For the past few months,
00:56:46you and I have been on the trail
00:56:49of a prize so rich
00:56:52it could upset the very nature of our world.
00:56:56And for that reason,
00:56:58I felt it necessary to keep it secret.
00:57:02I didn't trust you.
00:57:05And that was my mistake.
00:57:09Right now, I would like to tell you that that prize is within our grasp.
00:57:13And we are close.
00:57:16So close.
00:57:18But it would appear that my concerns about secrecy had merit.
00:57:24Someone on this crew discovered my plans
00:57:29and tore from this log the very page necessary to discover that prize.
00:57:37Stole it for their own gain.
00:57:40Stole it from us.
00:57:44And then,
00:57:46stoked your resentment to cover his crime.
00:57:51And make himself your captain.
00:57:55What?
00:57:58I don't know what he's talking about.
00:58:01That's a very serious accusation, Captain.
00:58:05Thievery is punishable by death,
00:58:08as is a false accusation of the same.
00:58:13Then, as per the articles,
00:58:17the accused has a choice.
00:58:20He can submit to a trial with who as judge?
00:58:23You?
00:58:25No.
00:58:27No fucking way.
00:58:33Then swords.
00:58:38Perhaps it's better this way.
00:58:41Be rid of you once and for all.
00:59:11Come on!
00:59:25Come on!
00:59:27Come on!
00:59:29Come on!
00:59:31Come on!
00:59:38Hit him!
00:59:51Get up!
00:59:53Come on!
00:59:55Come on!
01:00:01Come on!
01:00:07Get up!
01:00:16Come on!
01:00:23Get up!
01:00:31Come on!
01:01:01Come on!
01:01:31Come on!
01:01:44There's a stolen page.
01:01:55Friends.
01:01:58Brothers.
01:02:01The prize that you and I have been pursuing
01:02:05is La Coralima.
01:02:08The Hulk.
01:02:11A prize of almost unimaginable value.
01:02:15Now with this page securely in our possession,
01:02:19we can begin our hunt.
01:02:22And we will succeed.
01:02:25No matter the cost.
01:02:27No matter the struggle.
01:02:29I will see that prize is yours.
01:02:33I'm not just gonna make you rich.
01:02:36I'm not just gonna make you strong.
01:02:39I'm gonna make you the princess of the new world!
01:02:53Yeah!
01:02:55Yeah!
01:02:57Yeah!
01:03:12It's downstairs.
01:03:28Can I help you?
01:03:31Perhaps we can help each other.
01:03:35I think I have something you might want to buy.
01:03:57Yeah!
01:04:27Yeah!
01:04:57Yeah!
