Our Flag Means Death

After uprooting his life in search of adventure, aristocrat-turned-pirate-captain Stede Bonnet must go to new lengths to tame the mutinous motley crew of his ship, the Revenge.

When the Revenge runs aground, Stede attempts to assuage his guilt over recent events by encouraging his men to treat the island detour as a vacation. On the hunt for missing hostages, Stede, Oluwande, and Black Pete encounter some new faces.

As Stede tries to sell himself as the "Gentleman Pirate," his men take a trip in hopes of ransoming the remaining hostage. While in the Republic of Pirates, Oluwande worries that Jim will cross paths with the notorious Spanish Jackie.

While a feverish Stede flashes back to scenes of his marriage, Blackbeard experiences his own identity crisis. Jim suffers through questions from the overcurious crew.

Blackbeard decides he wants to try his hand at playing aristocrat; Stede, Oluwande, and Frenchie assume new identities to accompany him to a fancy party.

Inspired by Blackbeard's words of wisdom, Stede enlists the Revenge crew to help him intimidate an incoming merchant ship. After Izzy confronts him about his growing attachment to Stede, Blackbeard struggles to do what must be done.

Fearing an outbreak of scurvy, the crew stops in St. Augustine, where the search for citrus leads to a run-in with a major figure from Jim's past.

After Blackbeard's old pal pays a visit to the Revenge, Stede begins to feel like the third wheel. Inhis despair over Jim's absence, Oluwande gives his room to Frenchie and Wee Jack, who relish the opportunity to design their new space.

At the mercy of Chauncy and the British, Stede and Blackbeard renounce their pirating ways in a desperate attempt to escape execution.

Upon discovering that his family has moved on in his absence, Stede vows to make things right with his wife Mary. After a desperate attempt to stage a show for the crew, Izzy confronts a depressed Blackbeard about his former life.
