Thank you, sir.
I don't think
the flogger needed
to carry it out
with such gusto.
You requested
the customary lashing.
I know, sir.
Of course, you could have done
I swear he took
a particular pleasure
in having an officer
under his cat.
Should you fail,
you'll look back on
Flogger Flower's lashing
as a pleasant
afternoon's pastime.
That's another reason, sir, why I've
not the least intention of failing.
Is the longboat ready?
You'll put off at dark.
You should reach
Jones and Harris
will accompany you.
Good. And when do you meet
with Sir Cloudsley?
We sail immediately to
rendezvous with him off Cape Town.
I will join him
aboard his man-of-war,
northernmost tip of Madagascar
the week agreed upon.
I'll send you the rocket
flare as we arranged.
Should the week pass
and there be no signal,
well, since I've no kin,
there'll be none to mourn me.
Brave men are not forgotten.
Thank you, sir, but...
Sometimes they don't live

Longboat approaching.
We'll take them to
He'll know what to

Swaine.
What's this I hear?
There's no truth
to it, sir.
Now, you know the punishment
for concealing booty.
I swear, Captain
I took only my share.
You lie!
Belike you'll
tell the truth now.
You best speak the truth
or the carrion will feed on
your guts before the sun sets.
I took no booty.
Now, place the truth
on your tongue
or I will place this knife
between the other two.
No, don't!
I did take some.
But I meant no harm.
I'll show you where it is.
All right, tie this
foul-smelling pig below.
Hey, Spitfire!
Keep your distance,
Captain Roc.
That's a terrible
hard thing to do.
Then you'd better learn
or I'll have to teach you.
You were never offended before
when I took a fancy to you.
After last night, I'll do my
own fancy and when the time...
Come on now, Spitfire,
let bygones be bygones.
Caught these cullies
coming ashore in a longboat.
Well,
what have you to say?
We're deserters from the East
India Company ship Monsoon.
Brian Hawke at
your service, ma'am.
This is Jones, topman.
Harris, gunner's mate.
Deserters, huh?
Well, what do
you want here?
Why, to sail against
all flags, naturally.
You're an officer,
aren't you?
You'll excuse our
appearance, I trust, ma'am,
surely, after a week
in an open longboat.
Strip me.
If I'd expected to meet
somebody like you here,
why, I'd have brought
I'm not exactly dressed to meet
distinguished company myself.
Blast your guts! I asked
you if you were an officer.
Well, the answer, sir,
should be obvious even to you.
He was an officer,
a lieutenant, sir,
afore they broke him and
give him 20 with the cat, sir.
Got in trouble with
a passenger, he did.
Oh, a passenger, eh?
I don't like
the cut of your sail.

Take them to
the auction block.
Bring him tonight before
the Captains of the Coast.
