Detailed Synopsis
Abigail Ashe tells Eleanor Guthrie about the times she spent visiting with Miranda Barlow. Eleanor tells Abigail that they need to leave and that she will take her to Captain Flint and then to Miranda. Abigail tells her that Peter Ashe told her that Flint was evil, but Eleanor reassures Abigail that Flint is a good man. Billy Bones asks Flint how many votes he has versus the votes for Captain Benjamin Hornigold for captain. Flint thinks he is ahead by four, but Billy tells him Dobson, Brewer and Winslow are all nay votes. Flint thinks Winslow is for him, but Billy tells him that Winslow changed his vote when he got into an argument with Muldoon and then decided to change his vote. Flint believes that he has the better message, but Billy tells him that Hornigold just has to remind the pirates that Flint will betray anyone to get what he wants. Dufresne tells Flint that the pirates are ready to vote. Hornigold makes his speech and calls Flint a liar, murderer, thief and betrayer. John Silver walks up to Flint and tells him that they need to talk and Flint looks and sees Vincent and Nicholas standing nearby. Silver then tells Flint that the Urca gold is gone. The pirates overhear Silver and start talking to each other about the stolen gold.
Max has Anne Bonny's bloody clothes burned and returns Anne's hat to her. Max tells Anne that she has told the prostitutes to spread the word that Charlotte and Logan fled to Providence. Anne tells Max how Rackham saved her from her abusive husband and all she has ever been has been Rackham's right hand person. Idelle tells Max that her and some of the other prostitutes don't like having Anne around, and Max warns her not to bring the topic up with her again as Anne was the only one willing to save Max. Vincent and Nicholas tells Flint that they watched the Spanish get put their gold into another ship and didn't leave a single gold piece on the beach. Dufresne tells Flint that the pirates have put aside the vote. Flint tells Silver that they need to come up with a good case for returning Abigail to Peter and asks Silver to make the case to the pirates. Silver accuses Flint of engineering the gold having gone missing and tells him that he and Flint are no longer partners. Flint tells Silver that if he leaves then Silver will be a nobody while with Flint, the pirates listen to Silver. Silver gives his speech and admits to the pirates that he planned on leaving them when they got the gold. He tells them that he thinks many of them also had that idea, but now with the gold gone, their only other option is getting reconciliation.
Dufresne tells Billy they need to turn Flint over and get their own pardons and Billy tells Dufresne to find other men who would be willing to betray Flint. Anne goes downstairs to the main brothel area. Jacob Garrett starts talking to her and introduces himself. He tells her that he and some of his fellow pirates are planning on leaving their ship and starting their own crew. Course Pirate overhears Jacob and tells him to hurry up and have sex with Anne. Anne agrees to have sex with Jacob and Jacob asks her what her rules are. As Anne is about to have sex with Jacob, Idelle walks into the room and tells Jacob there was a mistake and tells Anne to leave while she has sex with Jacob. Max finds Anne outside the room and comforts her. Eleanor and Abigail reach a gate and Eleanor has struggles to open it. Billy meets with Dufresne and the other traitors to Flint including Big Conspirator. The rest of The Walrus crew also show up and Billy reveals the conspirators to be the traitors to their fellow pirates that they are. Big Conspirator questions Billy's manhood and Billy beats him up and tells everyone that they will stick together and follow Flint's plan until they are all safe. Eleanor and Abigail barely make it to the other side of the gate and Eleanor starts to lock it before they are caught by Captain Charles Vane. Vane reminds Eleanor that he killed Ned Low for her and warns her that if she leaves with Abigail then things between them will change forever. Eleanor locks the gate and leaves with Abigail.
Max tells Anne that she understands what she is going through and asks Anne to be her partner in her spy ring. Richard Guthrie talks with Miranda and warns her that Peter and his militia are brutal men. Eleanor arrives with Abigail and Miranda greets Abigail and Richard hugs Eleanor. Billy tells Flint that 18 pirates have defected including Dufresne. He then tells Flint that he believes the crew will need Flint's leadership and so he will do what is needed to ultimately help the crew. Muldoon tells Flint that Eleanor wants to speak to him. Eme and Miranda see Flint enter the tavern and Miranda brings him to Abigail. Flint introduces himself to Abigail and he tells her his real name. Dufresne tells Hornigold about Abigail's arrival and suggests they give her to England. Eleanor admits to Flint that she took Abigail without Vane's consent. Silver tells Max that the Urca gold wasn't put back on the ship, but that the crew guarding it started to die from a sickness and it is now undefended and he bribed Vincent and Nicholas to tell Flint the gold was gone. He then suggests they come up with a crew to get it. As Richard is returning inland, his carriage rider stops. Richard and his helpers then get out to look ahead as a large group of men stand waiting outside the light of Richard's lamps.
