Detailed Synopsis
Eleanor Guthrie gets up and looks outside at the beach. Max wakes up and Eleanor tells her how when Richard Guthrie ran things, the place was in chaos and filthy. She tells Max that a man-o'-war was spotted and she worries that the Royal Navy will come back to reclaim Nassau. Mr. Scott knocks on the door and asks to see Eleanor. Rackham asks Anne Bonny where Captain Charles Vane is and after she shows him, she tells him that the Prizemaster is waiting in the tent. On The Walrus, the pirates continue to cheer Captain Flint and Logan excitedly yells that they will have rum and women for them all. Dufresne advises them not to spend money they haven't earned yet. Gates notices Billy Bones is just staring into space and Billy shows him the page in his hand is blank. Randall, who is standing next to John Silver, says that the pirates don't like thieves. Randall says you mustn't steal and Turk, who thinks he is talking about Singleton, tells him Singleton wasn't a thief. Turk is about to stop two pirates who are peeing on Singleton's body, when Morley stops him. Flint tells Gates and Billy that the schedule is on the ship and one of the pirates is a thief. Gates realizes the only one that wasn't searched was Silver.
Gates and Billy start to search for Silver, who sees them looking for him and Silver jumps into the water. Mrs. Mapleton is attending to a prostitute that was beaten up the night before when Eleanor asks what happened and Mrs. Mapleton tells her a member of the Ranger crew did it. Mr. Scott tells Eleanor that a crew is waiting for her with 50 barrels of tobacco and a fluyt's worth of silk. He then warns her that she shouldn't provoke Vane. The Prizemaster counts out 5,000 pesos worth of pearls and hands the bag towards Rackham. Vane walks in and asks Rackham what he is up to. Rackham tells him about Flint's search for the location of the L'Urca de Lime. Vane criticizes Rackham's plan, and in turn, Rackham points out that Vane hasn't been getting any leads from Eleanor lately. Silver makes it to the beach and asks various people including Crewman where various locations are. Flint, Gates and Billy land on the beach and Gates asks where Silver went and they are pointed in different directions. Max is using her hand to pleasure Handjob Pirate who tells her that he wants to have sex, but she tells him that Eleanor pays to have Max for her own. Silver walks through the door and interrupts them and Handjob Pirate is upset with Silver's lack of decency.
Silver tells Max that Flint has discovered that he has the schedule and they should quickly make the deal and leave for Port Royal. As he is looking to sell his loot, Captain Bridge insults Eleanor and Mr. Scott and then scoffs at the amount she is willing to pay for his loot. After Bridge threatens to take his loot elsewhere, Vane walks up and challenges him and Bridge backs down after he hears who Vane is. Vane asks to speak with Eleanor and asks her to provide him with the same information she used to. She calls his men undisciplined and unruly and refuses to change things. Flint walks into Eleanor's place and asks to speak to Eleanor. Captain Naft is having a knock off painting of Adriaen Hanneman evaluated by Frasier when he insists they are the same. Frasier points out the difference in their quality, but Naft insists they are the same again. Billy finds Gates watching the argument transpire and Gates tells Billy that they can't be pirates forever. A Boy tells Frasier that Rackham is waiting to speak with him. Gates and Billy follow Frasier to the brothel. Silver looks through a peephole as Frasier appraises the pearls for Max. Idelle asks him if she can give him oral sex, but Silver declines. Flint tells Eleanor that Richard is a fugitive and he has him on The Walrus. Flint tells her and Mr. Scott about the L'Urca de Lime. Max agrees to the payment and tells Rackham to go to the Wrecks at sundown in order to receive the schedule.
Vane barges in and accuses Max of lying about the schedule and Rackham notices Silver looking through the peephole and tells Vane. Flint explains his plan to Eleanor to increase the security of the island and for the pirates to become farmers. He continues that he is looking for peace and the door opens and Gates tells Flint they found the schedule. Eleanor goes to see Max and Noonan tells her that Max won't tell him what happened. Max starts to tell Eleanor about her plan when Eleanor tells her to giver her the schedule. Max tells her that Vane will kill her if she doesn't deliver the page. Gates knocks on the door and Max realizes Eleanor betrayed her. Flint, Gates and Billy enter the room and Max tells them where the schedule will be delivered. Rackham and Vane go to the Wrecks in the evening and Silver watches them as an Old Man walks up to them and asks for the pearls. Vane yells that Silver will have to appear to them if he wants the pearls. Vane stabs the Old Man to death and Old Man 2 walks up and asks for the pearls. Billy and Flint arrive at the Wastes and they all begin to chase Silver. Silver sneaks next to a campfire and starts to memorize the schedule. While Rackham is searching for Silver he comes across a syphilis victim and stumbles backwards into the ocean, spilling the pearls. Flint and Billy catch Silver and he tells them that he burned the schedule after memorizing it. Flint rides to the home of Miranda Barlow and she tells him to take off his boots and she will boil him some water.
