Black Sails S02E05 Subtitles

00:00:12,923 --> 00:00:15,When my father arrives,
I would like to propose to him

00:00:15,376 --> 00:00:17,that we don't hang the pirates
but we pardon them.

00:00:17,545 --> 00:00:20,Any man who proposes to pardon
a traitor is himself a traitor.

00:00:20,631 --> 00:00:24,I find his argument persuasive
and I find yours wanting, sir.

00:00:24,301 --> 00:00:26,You're so close to having
everything you've wanted.

00:00:26,604 --> 00:00:28,I came to help you get it.

00:00:28,022 --> 00:00:30,I hear that one of the thieves
assaulted another.

00:00:30,391 --> 00:00:32,It was all in service
of stealing a young girl

00:00:32,643 --> 00:00:34,intended to be ransomed to her father.

00:00:34,361 --> 00:00:36,Her name was Abigail Ashe.

00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,Lieutenant McGraw, my good
friend Lord Peter Ashe.

00:00:39,033 --> 00:00:42,Mr. Featherstone will announce
to his shipmates tomorrow

00:00:42,036 --> 00:00:45,that he has joined a new crew.
Your crew.

00:00:45,456 --> 00:00:47,He can't be on the ship right now.

00:00:47,208 --> 00:00:50,It could spoil whatever chances
we have to retrieve the Urca gold.

00:00:50,244 --> 00:00:53,I ** fully committed to the removal
of Captain Vane from that fort.

00:00:53,247 --> 00:00:55,You are talking about rendering Nassau
completely unprotected.

00:00:55,633 --> 00:00:58,- I know.
- What say you, Captain?

00:00:58,052 --> 00:00:59,Fire.

00:03:27,234 --> 00:03:29,It would appear we lost track of time.

00:03:48,922 --> 00:03:51,- Fire!
- Fire!

00:03:54,645 --> 00:03:56,Take cover!

00:04:10,411 --> 00:04:11,Please.

00:04:12,997 --> 00:04:14,Please, stop.

00:04:14,365 --> 00:04:17,Surely you must realize
this is a fruitless errand.

00:04:17,251 --> 00:04:19,The time for conciliation is well past.

00:04:19,586 --> 00:04:21,I must try.

00:04:23,123 --> 00:04:25,Why?

00:04:25,209 --> 00:04:27,I'm the only one
who can stop him, Pastor.

00:04:29,729 --> 00:04:32,I'm the only one who
knows why he's doing it.

00:05:02,407 --> 00:05:04,__

00:05:15,225 --> 00:05:17,Your father said he would never
let your proposal come to a vote.

00:05:17,811 --> 00:05:19,I do believe he meant it.

00:05:19,346 --> 00:05:21,Tell me what chance this has of success.
Be honest.

00:05:21,932 --> 00:05:24,Ultimately there is tremendous support
for every part of the package.

00:05:24,601 --> 00:05:27,This entire battle is being waged
over the pardon provision.

00:05:27,321 --> 00:05:29,Without it, I could get this
passed in a matter of hours.

00:05:29,073 --> 00:05:31,The rest of it is meaningless
without the pardons.

00:05:31,575 --> 00:05:33,They're the only hope
for redeeming Nassau.

00:05:33,026 --> 00:05:35,I know, which is why
we'll keep on fighting.

00:05:35,779 --> 00:05:38,I know your father
is a formidable adversary.

00:05:38,532 --> 00:05:39,So ** I.

00:05:44,788 --> 00:05:46,What is it?

00:05:46,757 --> 00:05:48,A moment please?

00:05:54,381 --> 00:05:56,I'm going to make arrangements
to leave for the country.

00:05:56,633 --> 00:05:59,Leave? Leave when?

00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,Now.

00:06:01,688 --> 00:06:04,- Tonight.
- May I ask why?

00:06:04,525 --> 00:06:07,This fight with your father.

00:06:07,144 --> 00:06:10,The more public it gets,
the more visible it gets,

00:06:10,114 --> 00:06:11,the greater the liability
I will be for you.

00:06:11,648 --> 00:06:13,Liability? How could you possibly...

00:06:13,534 --> 00:06:16,The lieutenant's ship
arrived this morning.

00:06:16,620 --> 00:06:19,Returned from the Bahama Islands.

00:06:20,741 --> 00:06:23,I received word not long ago.

00:06:23,327 --> 00:06:25,The rumors about me and
my relationship with him

00:06:25,829 --> 00:06:27,have gone quiet the past
few months he's been away

00:06:27,881 --> 00:06:30,and I'm concerned that when he returns

00:06:30,300 --> 00:06:31,people will start whispering again.

00:06:31,885 --> 00:06:33,Let them whisper.

00:06:33,337 --> 00:06:36,It's not the rumors that concern me.

00:06:36,056 --> 00:06:38,It's the scrutiny that follows that.

00:06:38,475 --> 00:06:41,And what that scrutiny might unearth.

00:06:41,178 --> 00:06:43,So someone might discover
you and he shared a bed.

00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,I'm concerned they might dig past that

00:06:46,733 --> 00:06:49,and discover something

00:06:49,102 --> 00:06:51,far more damaging

00:06:51,905 --> 00:06:53,than that.

00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,I can assure you, Mr. Gates' death

00:07:05,536 --> 00:07:07,is not one the captain took lightly.

00:07:07,504 --> 00:07:09,When I arrived

00:07:09,706 --> 00:07:13,just after the deed was done,

00:07:13,260 --> 00:07:15,I saw the look on his face.

00:07:15,512 --> 00:07:19,The pain it caused him
to do what he did.

00:07:21,051 --> 00:07:22,But in that moment,
he believed it necessary

00:07:22,970 --> 00:07:25,to preserve the hunt
for the Urca and her gold.

00:07:28,108 --> 00:07:30,Flint killed him?

00:07:34,281 --> 00:07:35,Yes.

00:07:37,985 --> 00:07:40,And he's still captain?

00:07:42,289 --> 00:07:43,How?

00:07:43,707 --> 00:07:45,After a brief interlude,

00:07:45,459 --> 00:07:48,the men saw what I ** hoping
you will see.

00:07:48,462 --> 00:07:50,That with the gold still
sitting on that beach,

00:07:50,797 --> 00:07:54,he represents our best, perhaps
our only chance of retrieving it.

00:07:54,084 --> 00:07:56,Once this business with Vane
and the fort is over,

00:07:56,303 --> 00:07:58,that is what the rest of us intend.

00:07:58,171 --> 00:08:00,Rest of us?

00:08:01,758 --> 00:08:03,That's why I'm here.

00:08:03,260 --> 00:08:05,You didn't want me with the men.

00:08:05,229 --> 00:08:08,You're worried I'll challenge Flint.

00:08:08,065 --> 00:08:10,Well, the thought crossed my mind.

00:08:10,817 --> 00:08:13,But I'm hoping

00:08:13,103 --> 00:08:16,that once you have a moment
to process all of this,

00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,you'll remember that you are
the same man

00:08:19,326 --> 00:08:23,who when handed a blank page pulled
from Mr. Singleton's corpse,

00:08:23,196 --> 00:08:27,stood by the captain for the
sake of the bigger picture.

00:08:27,084 --> 00:08:28,Then you'll realize you were right then.

00:08:28,752 --> 00:08:31,And the same kind of perspective
is what's called for now.

00:08:31,204 --> 00:08:32,Enough!

00:08:35,676 --> 00:08:37,I'm going to see my brothers now.

00:08:45,636 --> 00:08:50,Until I know what you're
going to say to the men,

00:08:50,107 --> 00:08:52,I can't let you say anything to the men.

00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,He returns at last. It's good
to have you back, Lieutenant.

00:09:39,356 --> 00:09:41,- Sir.
- Welcome home.

00:09:46,079 --> 00:09:47,Three months.

00:09:49,366 --> 00:09:51,Feels like twice as long.

00:09:52,816 --> 00:09:55,Our campaign against
my father and Whitehall

00:09:55,038 --> 00:09:57,has reached a most critical stage.

00:09:57,708 --> 00:10:01,If you were able to secure the support
of the royal governor in Nassau,

00:10:01,712 --> 00:10:04,it might just be the thing that
turns the tide in our favor.

00:10:04,264 --> 00:10:06,There is no governor in Nassau.

00:10:07,434 --> 00:10:09,What do you mean?

00:10:10,637 --> 00:10:13,I understand the dispute
arose over a bribe.

00:10:13,607 --> 00:10:16,Money that Governor
Thompson felt he was owed

00:10:16,226 --> 00:10:18,by a particular pirate captain.

00:10:18,445 --> 00:10:20,That captain recruited others.

00:10:20,947 --> 00:10:24,They demanded the governor
leave the island at once.

00:10:24,901 --> 00:10:27,Thompson refused, at which point

00:10:27,954 --> 00:10:30,a dozen armed men broke into his home,

00:10:30,290 --> 00:10:33,dragged his wife and nine-year-old
son out into the street

00:10:33,243 --> 00:10:34,and slit their throats.

00:10:45,305 --> 00:10:47,They let him live, so I'm told,

00:10:47,557 --> 00:10:49,so he would tell the tale

00:10:49,259 --> 00:10:51,and so that there would be
no misunderstanding

00:10:51,762 --> 00:10:53,about who is running Nassau now.

00:10:53,597 --> 00:10:56,Stupid fuckers.

00:10:56,483 --> 00:10:59,By the time I left, men were
beginning to occupy the fort.

00:10:59,770 --> 00:11:01,Had I stayed another day, I'm not sure

00:11:01,855 --> 00:11:04,they would have let me
leave with my ship.

00:11:04,274 --> 00:11:06,But what is clear is this,

00:11:06,159 --> 00:11:09,right now, there's no law in Nassau.

00:11:16,286 --> 00:11:19,I'm trying to...
