"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."

"MADI:" "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." "[ seagulls cawing ]" "You know where you're going?" "I saw her last employed in the tavern." "I'll begin there."

"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?" "[ sighs ] 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..."

"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."

"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."

"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?"
