Tropes

  • Cliffhanger: The episode ends with Vane trying to assassinate Flint and the two men locked in a death struggle.
  • Decapitated Army: Vane attempts to assassinate Flint using this logic, reasoning that the alliance arrayed against him would fall apart without Flint.
  • R-Rated Opening: The episode opens with Jack, Anne and Bonny engaged in a passionate three-way, which is interrupted by the Spanish Man O' War beginning its bombardment on the fort.
  • The Reveal: Flint had a homosexual affair with Thomas Hamilton, which was exposed to both Hamilton's father and Flint's superiors in the Navy and is the reason he and Eleanor were banished to the Bahamas.
