“You were told that it was shameful. And part of you believed it. Thomas was my husband. I loved him and he loved me. But what he shared with you it was entirely something else. It’s time you allowed yourself to accept that. The only thing I am ashamed of is that I didn’t do something to save him when we had the chance. That instead I listened to you.”
“Within the world of Black Sails, Treasure Island was a kids story written about something that happened. […] Maybe the story was re-told a couple of times.”
You will stand up and you will tell your story. My story? What part of my story? All of it. You will tell them about the affair with Thomas. You will tell them how it ended. You will explain to them what it drove you to do. You will reveal everything. And when you do, Captain Flint will be unmasked, the monster slain. And in his place will stand before all the world a flawed man, a man that England can relate to and offer its forgiveness. What you’re asking of me… I wish there were another way but I’ve given it great thought and I cannot find it. Tell me this is something that you are willing to do and you and I will walk out of this house together. Announce our partnership to the street, and prepare to set sail for Nassau. – 2×09
