My grandfather is one of the
wealthiest men in the New World.

If I plead our case
and gain his support,

that might be all we need
to emerge from this intact.

I alone am to be left
in charge of Nassau's security.

And I gave our lord Governor my solemn
oath that I would see it protected.

Israel Hands.

It's a pleasure to make
your acquaintance.

- You want to withdraw?
- If we don't,

it will be the end
of whatever trust exists

between us and the slaves
on the island.

I'm through following you down a
path only you seem able to see.

Fire!

The neighboring estates

must've heard the guns
and rallied.

We need to be gone
before that militia arrives.

I board the sloop and I run.

The door will be open for you to reach
your grandfather and gain his aid.

It's the Governor's banner.
Do we pursue?

Set a course to overtake her.

*BLACK SAILS*
Season 04 Episode 03
"XXXI"

Captain?

I would've thought
you'd retired by now.

Bulletins from my scouts
in the field tonight.

I was contemplating
my response after the sunrise.

Anything we should discuss?

You have enough on your mind.

Let this be my concern.

Have you told her, my Lord?

Your wife.

About what lies ahead?

Good.

She doesn't need it
on her mind, either...

what lies ahead.

I have found that
contemplating these things

is the most difficult part.

That when the dread
moment arrives,

your true nature will assert itself.

The confusion will lift

and all will appear
as it should be.

You've given me
good men to lead.

I'll do my best by them.

There isn't
a good man among them.

Not anymore.

Some of them may have been,
before all this.

Some of them may be again

on the other side of it.

But right now,

good men are not
what the moment requires.

Right now,

the time calls for dark men

to do dark things.

Do not be afraid
to lead them to it.

Prepare for departure!

Today is the 24th.

David is five today.

My son.

I didn't know that.

Mr. Grandal has not
contacted me in weeks.

With the war apparently occupying
Spain's attention elsewhere,

there is a good chance
the entire unfortunate affair

surrounding the Spanish gold
is behind us.

So, when we reach Philadelphia,

once you are under the
protection of your family...

I was hoping you might see fit
to release me from my service,

that I might return to London...

to my children.

Of course.

Ma'am...

I've just been informed our permission
to depart has been suspended.

Suspended? Why?

I'm told the soldiers that
were to comprise your escort

are otherwise needed ashore.

What the fuck is this?

Get out.
Get dressed.

Mr. Harrison, proceed.

Six men with you.

They never looked my way

as I stayed
a considerable distance.

Saw you meet two others
late last night,

one of them standing
on just one leg.

Saw it all.

I had him follow you

after you left town
so abruptly last night.

I assume the one-legged man
was Long John Silver.

Would you like to tell me
what the meeting was about?

I was summoned by him

in a failed attempt
to extort money from me.

I would hope that your spy
also informed you

that four of my six men
attempted to arrest him

and died in the effort.

I was barely able
to escape myself.

Surely this should mitigate any doubt
you may have about my loyalties.

If you were loyal
to the Governor,

why did you not inform me
of the meeting before the fact?

If you are loyal
to the Governor,

why attempt to arrest
a man as dangerous as he

rather than simply
eliminating him?

If you had informed me,

I'm sure I could have
helped in that regard.

My questions
about your loyalty, ma'am,

are not mitigated
by last night's events.

If anything, they are now aggravated
to an intolerable degree.

Does the testimony presented
satisfy a charge of treason?

Wait.
It does.

This is outrageous.

When the Governor returns,
he will not stand for this.

The Governor is not here.
I am here.

And you are now
under an indictment

that carries with it
the penalty of death.

Mr. Harrison here
trailed Long John Silver

before losing him in the wrecks.

Men and horse
await in the square,

preparing to clear that area
and apprehend him.

Today is the day
the pirate resistance dies,

its leader eliminated,

its supporters in Nassau
exposed and arrested.

If you cooperate with me
to that end,

perhaps your death
might still be averted.

We have no choice
but to leave the island.

No one is leaving anything.

We came here to take Nassau.

We leave once that is done
or not at all.

Take Nassau?

With what army?

Whatever slaves are still
alive on this island

will never fight
alongside a pirate again.

- Not after last night.
- Last night,

there were also pirates
who fought alongside us.

Against terrible odds
and at great cost.

Billy and his men are our enemies
now, but these men are not.

And as long as that is true,
our alliance with them holds.

You know where you're going?

I saw her last employed
in the tavern.

I'll begin there.

We don't need to persuade
her to do anything yet.

Eventually, we'll need
to garner support

to help incite Nassau to
revolt against the Governor,

but what we need right now
is information.

How many soldiers there are,

what kind of sympathy exists
for our cause.

I know.

Thank you.

What for?

Last night.

You did not have to
side with me.

It was costly for you to do so.

Well, it would have cost far
more for me not to have done so.

We might be able
to take Nassau alone,

but there will be no greater
victory, no widespread revolution

unless we can somehow
keep our alliance together.

You truly believe
it is possible?

That as disadvantaged
and disabled as we are,

that anything we do here

is going to make the least bit of
difference to the men in London?

Well, that's
the trick, isn't it?

If no one remembers a time
before there was an England,

then no one can imagine
a time after it.

The empire survives in part

because we believe its
survival to be inevitable.

But it isn't.

And they know that.

That's why they're
so terrified of you and I.

If we were able to take Nassau,

if we are able to expose the illusion
that England is not inevitable,

if we are able to
incite a revolt

that spreads
across the New World...

then, yeah...

I imagine people are gonna notice.

"Too much sanity may be madness,

and the maddest of all,

to see life as it is
and not as it should be."

Get the main sail.

I'll say this for him,
he's not shy.

If he misses this tack, we'll
be on him in less than an hour.

He's completed his last three tacks.
Why stop now?

Not that close to the wind.
Not nearly that close.

Don't you think?

Any chance he could
slip away from us?

Not really, no.
No.

He's pointing higher,
but we've got the speed.

He can't hold us off forever.

Once we've stopped him,

you and I will take the
vanguard aboard on longboats.

You can stay close, provide
support until we're boarded.

Ever captained a ship
of this size before?

God, no.

Have you captained
a ship this size before?

Sure.
Good.

This ain't ever
gonna end for us, is it?

What?

You always wanted
to stand next to giants.

Now there you are.

And I'm wondering how it is you and
I are ever gonna move on from this.

He's brilliant, you know?

I've heard him underestimated
on that score,

perhaps owing to
his physical strength.

People finding it hard to accept the
idea that one man can be two things,

but I've seen it.

He is brilliant.

And last night,
all he wanted was revenge,

and all that would satisfy it was
Eleanor Guthrie's head on a plate.

And in a moment in which he had no
appetite to be persuaded otherwise,

I persuaded him otherwise.

If the story
of the pirate Jack Rackham

is to end with him standing
alongside Blackbeard as an equal,

together defeating the Governor
who hanged Charles Vane

and in so doing restoring
pirate rule over Nassau...

that is an ending
I can live with.

Defeat Rogers and we walk away.

They've missed stays!

We've got him.

Ready the guns!

The end is about to begin.

Our invasion failed.

But we are not through.

There is support for our
cause inside Nassau.

There must be, however dormant.

But we need to find it.

Need your help to find it.

There was support once,

but now Nassau is frightened.

What you would ask,
openly defying those soldiers...

I doubt you'd find
that kind of support.

I have lost more than you can
know to reach this moment.

Captain Flint has lost more
than you can know.

But we are here.
Captain Flint?

He awaits with
a small force of men.

But if we can see those
prisoners broken free...

And you are with him as well?

Yes?

Him who?

Long John Silver.

He died in the bay

during the invasion.

What?

A posse just departed
for the wrecks

under instructions
from Captain Berringer

to locate and arrest
Long John Silver.

Are you all right, ma'am?

Ma'am?

Fuck.

Fuck, fuck, fuck.
That's enough.

We should be running.

There's nowhere to run.

Then we have a serious problem,

as Captain Berringer
is going to demand

she identify her connections to
the resistance, which is us.

She won't.

How can you be so sure?

Because she doesn't like
her friends being threatened.

And she doesn't like
to be pushed around.

I sincerely hope you're right,

as I believe our lives
depend upon it.

She won't tell on us in there.

What we should be worried about is how
we're going to help her from out here.

Fuck.

The other day,

you refused to name
the source you used

to undermine the pirate
invasion of the bay...

as a matter of principle.

Since that time, Long John
Silver and his associates

have murdered one of my men...

murdered four of your men...

murdered a family of three
on the Underhill estate

in cold blood last night,

including
an eight-year-old girl.

Knowing now how high
the bodies are piling,

how real the threat is,

I am giving you an opportunity
to remedy your error

and help me end this threat
once and for all.

I want the names
of your sources.

I am sorry,

but I cannot do that.

Cannot or will not?

These men would turn on you
in a blink of an eye.

Why would you go to such
lengths to protect them?

I told you I have an understanding
with the Governor...

Give me the names... in which
he acknowledged the benefit

of my being able to honor my word
to my sources... Give me the names.

Such that I might continue to serve
his regime... Give me the names.

In the future as I have served it...
Give me the names.

Every day until now. Give me the names.
Give me the names!

You can't go in there, ma'am.

What is going on here?

Go!

I'm not shackled.

You plan to run?

Do I need to run?

That'd be fun for me to see.

How would you do it?

With great difficulty,
I imagine.

How would you take Nassau?

When I did it...

drove the Governor away,

I had Teach and an army of
my once-brothers at my back.

You want to play Teach?

Who's to play the rest?

Or do you believe we two
could do it alone?

Find him!

Look over there!

Find him!

Right.
Over there!

- Behind them.
- Check the brush!

Find him!

Search that wreck!
Get in there!

It's all right.

How are we going to take Nassau?

That's how.

Cease fire!

Cease firing! Shall
we reload, Captain?

There's nothing more
we can do from here.

They're on their own now.

They've struck their colors!

She is the most influential
member of the Governor's Council.

Whatever tension there has been,

he relies upon her to
maintain control. Ma'am.

If when the Governor does return

I have to explain to him
that I discovered

the most influential
member of his council

conspiring with our enemies
and took action to stop her,

that is an explanation
I will offer happily.

Now, I apologize for the delay

in your transport
to Philadelphia.

The men were most needed
to address today's crisis.

Please trust
I will have you on your way

by the time the sun rises
tomorrow.

I explained
the situation to him.

He's in no mood to be
reasoned with on the issue.

You saw him, Silver?

What happened?

It was him and one other.

I had six men.

I thought it would be sufficient
to apprehend him myself.

Apprehend him? No one asked
you to apprehend him.

All you had to do was report the invitation
to meet and let the captain handle it.

How in God's name
did that not occur to you?

I did not fail to do it.

I refused to do it
and would again.

Why would you refuse
to adhere to the law?

Because the last time the law got its
hands on a pirate of that stature,

it yielded the following...

Anger, hostility, resentment,

purges to combat it all that only
resulted in amplifying it all,

and a resistance movement that,
since Captain Vane was hanged,

has done nothing
but grow strong enough

to control almost every part of
this island outside of Nassau.

And you ask why I chose

not to help start the cycle
all over again?

There is a ship in the bay

that is supposed to be
taking me to a place

where I might actually solve
our problems here.

But instead, I am stuck here for
as long as it takes to fix this.

In order to do that, you are going to
have to give me something to fix it with.

But you'd better come up with
something of value I can use

to get him
to walk away from this.

You think you can control him.

And by the time you realize
he has been controlling you,

it is going to be too late.

Riders returning!

Give me something I can use

because otherwise
I can't help you.

And I beg your pardon, but what
the fuck have you got to lose?

What happened?
Fugitive escaped.

Though, not before
killing three of my men

and fixing that
to one of the bodies.

What does it say?

"To the men and women of Nassau,

"the strength of the Governor's
force is now reduced by three.

"The time to lend us
your efforts is now.

"See my brothers
held captive freed.

"Join them. Join me.

Signed,
Long John Silver."

You heard him.

The time is now.

Who among you would like to lend
his efforts to Long John Silver

and resist me?

Here.

I am unarmed.

No one will stand in your way.

If the time isn't now, when
the fuck is it going to be?!

None of you?!

No one at all?!

You fucking cowards.

I don't understand.

Billy.
Yep.

Tried to kill you?
Yep.

And Madi?
Her, too.

Why are we not angry about this?

Who says we're not?

Well, I'm not sensing a whole lot
of urgency to do anything about it.

There isn't anything we can
do about it at the moment.

Isn't there?

Look, Billy's not stupid.

He's almost certainly
consolidated by now,

intimidated or eliminated anyone who
would challenge him or support me.

He has control
of the Underhill estate,

control of the army
that calls it home.

There will be a time to
deal with him, but not now.

This one, however.

He's fine.

If you'd asked me yesterday,

when he was considering selling
me to the Governor for a profit,

I'd be in agreement
we should be rid of him.

But now, I don't know.

I feel like we need
as much help as we can...

get.

Execution of the pirate prisoners
is scheduled for today.

Captain Berringer
stood in the square

and said if Long John Silver
had a problem with this,

he was welcome to show
himself and voice it.

Uh, even if we could get
through their outer defenses,

10 of us walk into town against
what could be 100 soldiers.

And then what?

The threats have been made.
The story's been told.

Everyone in Nassau knows what
Long John Silver's return means,

what's expected of them
when he does return.

All that remains to do

is for him to return.

It would help
if Nassau knew I was coming.

Can you see to it?

Of course.

Ooh, lovely.

I don't make
this request lightly.

But after everything
Max has done for the council,

for you,

it seems like a moment when
she's owed something back.

The charges against her
are of the utmost seriousness.

It sounds as if the law
is being adhered to.

And what standing
do we have to interfere?

People are angry,
Mr. Frasier.

At the soldiers,
at Captain Berringer.

Some of them even at
our lord Governor.

You may not see it,
but trust me, I do.

If the council
won't resist the captain,

then some of those people might find
their own ways of resisting this.

Ways you might not like.

Don't send for me again.

Fuck.

What did he say?
Nothing helpful.

What's going on?

You're about to
make a terrible mistake

and I am asking you
to reconsider.

I am entitled to exercise these
sentences at my discretion.

But I'm not asking you
to cancel the hangings.

I'm asking you to cancel
the theater around them.

You intend to lure Silver in.

Force him to appear
in the square to save his men

so that you might defeat him
in full view of all of Nassau.

Demonstrate
your fearsomeness to them.

Don't.

- Why not?
- Because you don't need to.

Because they know it already
and because at a certain point,

there is only so much fear
a man can endure.

All you are doing
is antagonizing them.

And who is that serving?

Because there is a better way
to solve this problem.

What is that?

This is information
about the preferred routes

used by the resistance
to enter into Nassau.

She gave it to you?
She did.

Send men to lie in wait.

Set an ambush that can
overwhelm Silver and his men

when they attempt to pass.

End this quietly and easily

and definitively.

What do you imagine
happens next?

If you are fortunate enough
to capture Teach...

what will you do with him?

Years ago as a privateer
during the war,

I was in a running fight
with a Spanish galleon.

Hounded her for days.

By all rights, she should've
surrendered long before she did.

Just before her colors were
struck, a shot was fired.

A cheap, cowardly shot...

fired with the knowledge they
were about to surrender anyway

and the presumption that
they be entitled to quarter.

This particular shot
found its mark.

Took three of my men...

one of them, my brother, Thomas.

He'd always
been smarter than me.

Braver.

Better.

Protected me when we were young.

Taught me to sail
when we were older.

He was my closest friend.

Lost to a cheap
and cowardly shot.

So, after they surrendered,
I went aboard the ship.

And I began with the captain.

I was more deliberate with him.

It took some time.

Then I moved to his first mate.

The gun captains.

Gun crews.

74 men aboard that ship
when I boarded her.

But by the time we reached
Acapulco, there was only one.

The one I delivered alive
to recount the tale.

You asked
what would happen next.

My instinct is the same now
as it was then.

I will show them
what the consequences are

for threatening that
which I hold most dear.

I will leave no doubt about it.

Do it.

Heave!

Let's get the slack.

Now.

Pull!

Pull it away!

Hold him.

Again.

Again.

Heave!

- Heave!
- Get it out!

Heave!

Him next.

Again!

Again!

Heave!

Heave!

Let fall.

Can you see?

Secure the rest of them.

Set a course for Nassau.

Raise sail!

- Keep moving.
- Don't drag your feet!

Go on.

Move it.

Go on through.

Sir...

What did he say?

Your men lying in wait
for Silver and his men,

were they successful?

Do it.

There was no ambush set,
was there?

I reconsidered.
We had an agreement.

Nassau will never fully
come to heel

until we can
demonstrate control.

And control that no one can see

makes for
no demonstration at all.

So, I will let them see it.

Remove them.

Ready the next three.

Take them down.

Next three prisoners.

You know Lieutenant Utley
from the captain's staff?

Yes.
Find him.

Tell him I ask that he gather
as much food and supplies

as he can move into the fort
within the next hour.

The fort? And tell him to
gather six men he trusts

to escort it and us up there.

And tell him to get Max. Why do
we need an escort to the fort?

Quickly, please.
We don't have much time.

They'll come.

Company, fall into two ranks!

Make ready!

Present!

Ready!

Fire!
Fire!

Charge!

I need B Company!

Fall back!

B Company, make ready!

Wait for my command!

Mark your target!
