I’ve this show because most characters aren’t black or white. Max certainly didn’t sleep with her half sister. She grew up on a French island. How did she get there? Did her true father set her free? Did he die and she became the ‘property’ of her father’s son or was she given to the other young girl’s hand in escaping? Somehow she did get off the French island. Did her father feel badly and give her safe passage to a new island!? Did she escape? Did she escape due to to the other slaves on the island and why her? She certainly made a name herself in Nassau. She wasn’t Elenor’s half-sister — to be sure. Max is certainly smart. How she escaped?,TBD. Also, never underestimate Jack. He learners…. And more to come on that later. Think of saving Anne…. Before season one. He has made mistakes too but is bright and continues to grow so far the series. Much, much more character development to come for these and other characters. Plus Flint is dangerous, ruthless yet learned and emotional at the same time. Such an enticing episode and series.

2021-08-28 07:46:25 +0000 UTC@Jay The actors all lived in the same apartment complex while they were in Cape Town so Luke Roberts (Woodes Rogers) got to know Toby Stephens off set at first. When he finally saw him filming he told the other actors "I met Flint today and it was scary". 🤣

2021-08-27 04:31:45 +0000 UTCThe little girl was not Eleanor as Max did not grow up in Nassau, you can tell because she has a French accent and Nassau is an English colony. She was the illegitimate daughter of a slave owner and a slave and wished she could have everything her half sister had. Its also why she wanted to leave Nassau with Eleanor, at the time she didnt have anything and saw no future for herself in it. Now she is successful and has reached the life she always wanted to have, so she cant leave the island behind and abandon her dream.

2021-08-27 03:59:07 +0000 UTCWhich makes Max's story all the more heartbreaking. Also loved that Silver immediately makes the connection that the two people closest to Flint died and that for him to earn that respect, his actions of confessing could get him killed on the spot haha

2021-08-27 02:37:48 +0000 UTCI was the same. This show causes you to think so deeply that your brain comes up with all these different possibilities about character motivations or storylines. Eventually after being wrong almost every time, I realised these writers are too smart for me and just enjoyed the ride haha

2021-08-27 02:33:27 +0000 UTCSteven you hit the nail on the head when you referred to Vane as Teach’s padawan. They really do have a master/apprentice type relationship and for Teach, even more so. Eleanor is on full revenge mode with her plans and I both hate it and respect it at the same time. The irony in how she is now flippantly using Hornigold with no regard for his life is hilarious. This show causes so much conflict in me haha. I think with Max initially she couldn’t see a life in Nassau, she was working in a brothel to start with. However now she does see a life there, that ‘peace’ she has been searching for has never been closer. Every scene with Flint was so powerful. I can’t imagine what it would’ve been like for the rest of the cast and crew to watch on in awe as Toby Stephens is performing those scenes.

2021-08-27 02:14:28 +0000 UTCMax wasn't talking about Eleanor and Richard Guthrie in her story. She was talking about the slave plantation she grew up on where the plantation owner fathered her with one of his slaves The little girl in the story wasn't Eleanor but her half-sister who is treated like a princess by their father while Max is kept as a slave. Her story was about how she needs to find a way to assimilate with English rule while that is the last thing Anne wants so they should part now so both can stay true to themselves. Flint is an emotional mess right now. I love the symbolism of these episodes tho. His rage was the hurricane they sailed into, the becalming his depression, and the winds return when Silver finally makes some progress in getting through to him. Teach was proven right in what he's been saying about the pretenders in Nassau. They hopped on the pirate bandwagon because it was cool at the moment but the second they were offered an easy out, they took it.
