Cursed Waters (2026) Movie Script
[logo stinger plays]
[monkey screeches playfully]
[cannon fires]
[birds chirping in the forest]
[cannon blasts]
[ocean water splashes]
[rapid drumbeat intensifies]
[CAPTAIN BURE]
- Find your stations,
[CAPTAIN BURE] - we will outrun them.
[CAPTAIN BURE]
- Drake!
[DRAKE]
- Yes sir.
Hand me my spy glass.
[fast-paced action music]
Who is it?
Americans.
[cannon fuse hisses then fires]
What?
They want their ship back.
I think after 15 years they give that up.
[cannon booms]
Apparently not.
Waku, I thought we were in Mexican waters.
We are, Captain.
Commodore, they do not seem
like they're changing course.
Keep on firing, they'll make
a mistake soon enough.
[cannon fires]
Shaw, Ortiz!
Aye, Captain.
What do we know of the USS Perry?
It's a hunter.
It was recently taken
over by Commodore Oliver.
The Commodore is in the slave trade.
Are you sure of this?
Yes, Captain.
He and his Lieutenant Commander
are the reason I deserted.
Perhaps the warning shots aren't enough.
Damage Navy property.
Not to mention the cargo.
Commodore, I am the
captain of the USS Perry,
and I assure you we are quite
capable of precision targeting.
Very well.
Order the gunners to put
one in their starboard side.
Aye, aye, sir.
Captain, just one for now.
We'll be done, sir.
[cannon fires]
[cannon blasts]
What happened?
That last blast knocked the keg over, sir.
It's all in the [cannon blasts]
[grunts in pain]
[grunting continues]
Shaw!
Let's show these bastards
what we're made of.
Kilgore, this is your time to shine.
[everyone laughs]
Waku!
Fire the port!
Yes, sir!
[upbeat music playing]
[distant cannon fire]
[KILGORE]
- Come on, you heard the man.
Time to have some fun.
[everyone laughs]
[tense music playing]
Fire!
[cannon blasts]
[action music intensifies]
[cannon blasts]
[cheering and screaming]
That'll make them think twice
before messing with us again.
Bring it on!
[canyon blasts]
Captain Arnold, ready
to cannon the spot in time.
With all due respect, sir,
our mission is to capture and return,
not damage and destroy.
Captain Arnold,
I am sure Lieutenant Commander Bridget
would follow my orders without question.
You understand?
I do, sir.
Get those guns to work, now!
Roger, Mel.
On your porch.
All right, Captain.
Ready cannon, storm inside!
[canyon fires]
Take cover!
[cannon thunders]
Oh, that was close.
- Oh, are you OK?
- Yeah, and you?
[gunshot]
Mr. Shaw, we have casualties!
[cannon blasts]
[CURSED WATERS]
[instrumental music]
On your feet, scum.
Let's get this over with.
- Dirty pirate!
- Coward!
Get out of here!
[crowd talking]
It's judgement day, you pirate.
[crowd talking]
Nothing like a nice straw in the morning.
[crowd talking continues]
[JUDGE WILLIAM] - Will
the defendant please rise?
State your name and
occupation for the record, sir.
Tiberius Shaw.
Merchant marine.
Mr. Shaw,
you are charged with piracy,
aiding and abetting runaway slaves,
and most importantly, the
destruction of the USS Perry
and the deaths of its officers and mates.
How say you?
Not guilty.
For the defense motions
for dismissal of this case.
My client was unconscious for the majority
of what he has accused.
[JUDGE WILLIAM]
- Motion denied.
Mr. Prosecutor, have
your opening statements?
Yes, sir.
Thank you, Your Honor.
With the court's indulgence,
I would like to prove beyond doubt,
that the pirate,
Mr. Shaw, over here...
Was guilty of all of the atrocities
that he had been charged with.
[tense music builds]
He's a pirate.
Mr. Shaw's pirating is
well known in this court.
And I don't think we
need to elaborate on it
to make him feel better.
However,
he has now gone into the
runaway slave business,
which is quite logical because
the captain of his ship is
a runaway slave.
Now, we are not here
just for that, Your Honor.
We are here because on the 26th of May,
in the year of his lord, 1850,
the USS Perry was out on
routine patrol in US waters
when they came upon a ship
that had been stolen from the US Navy,
the USS Frost.
It was now a pirate ship and renamed...
The Chain Breaker.
Objection.
Over rule.
Now, an attempt was made
quietly and within the law
to board the Chain
Breaker to take into custody
the captain and the crew.
They were repelled violently
in a huge fighting show.
Your Honor, the prosecutor is
going to be giving a testimony.
He should at least be under row.
[cinematic music swells]
[ED]
- Sir, I have an idea.
It will let you escape.
What do you mean, let you escape?
We will all escape.
[Explosion]
Sir, we don't have time to argue.
For the record, Ed, I do not like this.
Sir, if we don't act now,
none of us will escape.
Trust me.
What do you need, Ed?
Thank you, Captain.
[cannon fires repeatedly]
Are you ready?
As ready as I'll ever be.
I've been looking forward to this.
I bet you have.
Been a while since we
were boarding the ship.
What, you worried you've forgotten how?
Oh, it's like riding the horse.
You never forget.
When were you on the horse?
I had a long, fulfilling life
before joining you brigands.
Well, was it you did
again, cattle rustler?
Let's get to it then.
Yeah?
Time to die.
[ship creaking]
[fighting shouts]
Gentlemen.
[grunts]
[somber music]
Hi there.
[swords clanging]
[grunts]
[grunts continues]
[grunts]
Now, you have?
Shit, it's not breaking.
[gun fires]
Try it now!
You're in the wrong ship, my friend.
I'm right where I want to be.
[grunts continues]
[swords clanging]
I'm going to make sure you
don't get off this ship alive.
And neither are you.
Hurry!
Working on it.
[gun fires]
[grunts]
Nowhere to run to now, pirate.
We have you surrounded.
Surrender now.
We won't offer again.
I've taken up more than you to stop.
- Keep him contained.
- Careful what you wish for.
Show me what you have, cowards.
Show me!
[man yells]
[man grunts]
Who's next?
[grunts]
Fuck!
[gun fires]
Cowards.
[cannon fires repeatedly]
It's gonna blow!
My eyes!
I can't see.
My eyes.
You've got to help him.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
No, Kilgore, please.
Please.
We really got to get out of here.
Kilgore.
- What are you...
- There is nothing I can do.
- Please, help me out here.
- Fire in a hole.
Where are you going?
- What's happening?
- It's all right.
I got you, I got you, I got you.
Thomas... - What's happening?
- I got you, I got you.
[man grunts]
[cannon blasts]
Was that the deposit keg?
What do we do, sir?
You need to abandon ship.
Wait, no!
We can still win this.
[cannon blasts]
Cap!
[gun fires]
[gasps in pain]
[groans in pain]
- Take it easy, Cap.
- I'm fine.
[blade is withdrawn]
[labored breathing]
[grunts in pain]
Okay.
We have to abandon ship.
Cap, the ship?
Do you know why they
call it the Chain Breaker?
The Chain Breaker is
someone who frees slaves.
Yes.
Break it free.
Men from their captivity.
And it freed me from their capitalism.
And it freed them.
It freed them from
the from the structure.
[cannon blasts]
Drake,
it freed me.
It freed Waku.
It freed Ford.
It freed you.
And the rest of you.
They may take this ship.
They may take our lives.
But that
the legacy
of breaking chains,
they will never take from us.
No.
Abandon ship!
[gasps in pain]
We need to go to war.
Are you okay?
[painful grunting]
I thought I ordered you to abandon ship.
With all due respect, Captain?
No.
That's an order, we we're glad to stay.
Over and over.
Why?
We know who's on that ship.
We know what he did to you.
We can't let him put you
back in chains, Captain.
You know,
we could all die here.
But this is our choice.
It'll take a lot of those
bastards with us.
Yeah.
Stay behind us, sir.
Never.
It's been an honor,
sir.
No.
The honor
has been mine.
Charge!
[cheering and screaming]
[swords clanging]
Hey!
[gun fires]
Hey!
[gun fires]
[sword swishes]
Hey!
Okay.
[labored breathing]
[loud grunts in pain]
Come on.
Come on.
[swords clanging]
[grunts in pain]
[painful grunts]
[COMMODORE OLIVER]
- Stand out.
As you wish.
Look at me, boy.
William.
Good to see you again.
That's not my name.
That was your name, all right.
Name I grew up calling you by.
Name my father gave to you.
That
is
not
my name.
So what shall I call you now?
Bure.
Bure?
Well, you gave us quite a chase.
[laughs mockingly]
You wanted your ship back so badly.
Officially.
Unofficially.
Why were you so impatient?
I mean, come on, now, life
couldn't have been all that bad.
We fed you, we housed you.
Even taught you to read.
Any idea how rare that is?
They're very good to you.
Good to me?
My mother died of starvation.
You beat me.
You threw my father
in a Corbin for a week!
That was my father.
Maybe.
But it was you.
You.
You drowned my daughter.
You realize if you'd have
just waited ten more years,
I would have freed you?
Waited?
Ten years?
I should have left ten years earlier.
[thuds]
[grunts in pain]
You thank the good Lord
that I'm the one that found you.
If it had been anybody else,
there'd be no question
what to do with you.
It seems to me it'd be
a waste to hang you.
I could just bring you home instead.
I would rather die
than go home with you.
Well, that can be arranged.
Goodbye, William.
[laughs mockingly]
You may chain my hands.
You may even shackle my feet.
[grunts in pain]
[melancholic music]
You may throw me in a dog prison.
But you will never enslave my thinking.
Because that is free.
[flesh is pierced]
[dramatic music]
I'm getting too old for this.
You telling me?
You think at some point
we'd figure out something.
You learned how to swim.
Well, I'll tell you what,
I was swimming long before
you were glimpsed in your papi's eye.
[FRANCIS]
- I'll tell you, Richard.
If you want such a good
cook... Watch it, Francis.
I may be good with food,
but I'm good with poison, too.
All right, lads.
Well, on that note, I
think I'll be taking a leaf.
Are you really good with poison?
[RICHARD]
- How do I know?
But I figure if socialites
in London can do it.
I mean, how hard can it be?
How do you think the captain really fares?
I don't know.
He's pretty banged up.
But you know, bury me last Bure,
he's been through worse.
Hey, you're always the optimist.
Been together for a
long time on that boat.
Indeed.
Been a lot of good.
Made a little coin.
A little?
He really made us rich.
Rich?
I could buy my own island.
Must be a small island.
Why are you here, Sebastian?
What?
Was it only for the coin?
What else would it be?
The ship was different.
- Bure was different.
- Exactly.
So I ask you again, Sebastian.
Why are you here?
Well, I do admit, it did feel good.
What did?
Everything that we did.
Bure brought out the best in all of us.
Aye.
Saved a lot of people.
Men,
women,
and children.
Delivered them all to freedom.
At least temporarily.
Don't say that.
What?
It wasn't temporary.
There's no way for us to be sure of that.
I'll tell you what I do know.
When they look back
at this time in history,
we will be the heroes.
Big damn heroes.
[KILGORE]
- Drake.
Playing Captain?
We have a Captain.
And it ain't me.
We had a Captain.
And it is you.
[chuckles]
What's the plan?
Where are we out of powder?
Yeah, we're lucky to even
have gotten out of there alive.
How are we supposed to defend ourselves?
We have swords.
They'll have guns.
It'll have to do.
Aye, sir.
All right.
Take who's left.
Go scavenge for food.
We're going to need to eat soon.
Oh.
Take Flora.
For protection.
Aye, aye.
[chuckles]
[birds soaring overhead]
[KILGORE]
- Flora.
There's my sweetie.
Drake wants you to find
some animals for some food.
He wants me to make sure
I tag along for protection.
Oh, I'm sure that's
exactly how he said it.
Come on, old man, protect me.
Hold on now.
Easy with the old man stuff.
You know your dad's got to have a
reputation he's got to uphold.
I'm sure we'll find something
for you to blow up along the way.
I sure hope you're right.
[laughs]
Come on, come on.
Hey.
Wilson, report.
There is significant
damage to the foremast
and damage to the port side, sir.
How long for repairs?
Three days, sir.
All right, then.
Casualties?
15 injured, 5 dead, 2 missing.
Missing?
Two, sir.
We have a party searching for them.
I see.
So where exactly are we?
[ship crew] - Somewhere
near Baja, California.
[CAPTAIN ARNOLD]
- Somewhere?
[ship crew] - Yes, sir. [CAPTAIN
ARNOLD] - And how do you not know
exactly where we are?
Well...
Well, what?
There's a landmass out there
that's not on any of the maps.
A landmass?
Yes, an island.
Maybe this trip wasn't just
a wait for the time after all.
Ahh, Lieutenant Commander Bridger.
How is the Chain Breaker?
It's beyond saving.
We did manage to salvage some parts
for repairs before Scotland, the vessel.
Pity, huh.
[OLIVER] - Gentlemen,
we still have work to do.
We need to stamp out this pirate threat.
We destroyed their ship.
BUt not their spirit.
I'm not following you.
Their captain is now martyr to them.
And we're going to need to squash
all of them to end his influence.
- Commodore, perhaps I should
- No.
Captain Arnold, you are to remain
on this ship and oversee repairs.
Lieutenant Commander Bridger
will take the rest of you
on to the island along with
the contingent of Marines
and pursue the pirates.
Bring me back at least one alive.
Kill the rest.
Yes, sir.
Norton.
Yes, Lieutenant Commander?
Round up your best men.
We'll leave in half an hour.
[door opens]
Mr. Prosecutor, you
may call your first witness.
Thank you, Your Honor.
With your indulgence, I would like to call.
Tiberius to the stand.
Come, Mr. Shaw.
Raise your right hand.
Place the left one on the Bible.
Do you swear to tell the truth,
the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth,
so help you God.
I swear it.
Mr. Shaw,
isn't not true that when
your captain was injured,
you left him to die,
and you abandoned your ship?
No, sir.
We were badly damaged and sinking.
We abandoned ship by order
of the captain and Mr. Drake.
I see.
Was it also not true
that when you found out
that Commodore Oliver's family owned
your runaway slave who was your captain,
you decided to kill the crew
of the SS Perry
and then take that ship as your own?
Objection.
Overruled.
Your Honor.
No, sit down.
Thank you, Your Honor.
You will answer the
question, Mr. Shaw.
The Commodore's connection
to the captain was known.
It was my loyalty that determined
that the captain should be rescued.
I had nothing to do with the
demise of the Perry Ojo crew.
When your original plan did not work,
you came up with a second one,
which included killing your first mate,
and then you would become the captain
and taking the ship as your own.
I'd love to see you try to prove that.
Oh.
I will, and you, my friend,
will see.
[upbeat music]
We should have stayed
back there and fought.
I don't know.
I suppose we'd all been killed.
Not necessarily.
They may have captured a couple of us.
It's her tooth coat
with all of this bitching.
He's right.
There's something out
there that knows we're here.
I think the captain is getting that away.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
All are not hunters who blow the horn.
Wise man as always.
You understand him?
Of course, you don't?
Why would we?
Waku's been on the ship for over a decade.
All you had to do was ask.
[man grunts]
What the...
What's this?
[man shouting]
Let's get the hell out of here!
You can't tell me twice.
Where the hell is it coming from?
Who cares?
[man grunts]
Atto!
[man grunts]
[WAKU]
- Hey, are you okay?
I need just rest.
Waku, are you okay?
Go.
No.
[man grunts]
I'm not leaving!
I will buy you some time.
But...
Go.
[grunting]
[grunting]
[grunting]
Die in peace!
What...
In the hell
are we looking for?
A cave.
Why?
Because it gives us a defensible position.
Or a choke point.
Exactly.
That's not a good thing.
Not for them.
If we get caught in a cave...
Then we all die horrible deaths.
But we take as many of those boot-lickin'
American bastards with us as we can.
Haha!
That sounds like a plan.
A terrible one.
[suspense music playing]
Do you hear something?
Yeah.
What is that?
Is that...
Is that singing?
Wait, do you think that could be Flora?
You ever heard Flora sing before?
Never.
At least,
not like that.
Yeah, well, what are we waiting on?
Let's go.
Maybe we should go and...
Check it out.
You want to check out who's singing?
Coming from somewhere
on a deserted island.
They might need our help.
Yeah.
And I bet they'd be very
thankful if we helped them.
[MARSH]
- You're disgusting.
What?
It's been a while since I've
been around a real woman.
Let's just get on with it.
[mysterious music]
Welcome to our home.
- Closer.
- Please.
Come closer.
It's been so long since we've had company.
Won't you please come closer?
Come closer.
- Closer.
- Please.
We are so lonely.
Marsh, Dora, snap out of it.
They're so lonely.
[mysterious music continues]
Call me.
[snarls]
[fast-paced action music]
[screaming]
[screams]
Jett!
No!
Damn it.
No!
Sebastian!
No!
Come on, bitch.
[grunting]
[grunting]
[growls]
[growls]
- Ben!
Shit!
[gun fires]
[grunting]
Boss line!
Concentrate your fire!
[gunshots continues]
Take away!
Is it a siren?
Don't worry, just shoot it.
[gun fires continues]
[screaming]
Hey, take over!
[yelling]
Sally, take charge!
Take charge!
[yelling]
[music playing]
[growls]
Stay back!
You see any others?
No, it's all clear.
[gun fires]
Ripley!
No!
No!
No!
No!
No!
[laughs mockingly]
Don't die.
I'll go get help.
[laughs mockingly]
Oh.
Ripley Ortiz!
So good to see you again.
Now, go to hell, you bastard!
Saved me a seat.
[gun fires]
You bastard!
What about words?
I knew we could trust that son of a bitch!
You didn't have to do that.
[gasp]
And why is that?
They were surrendering.
I didn't hear them say it.
You didn't know if they were.
[laughs mockingly]
No.
I don't, in fact.
So why do we make this easy?
We only have to bring
one of them back alive.
So if they don't I'll surrender
in the next three seconds.
Kill them all but the tall one.
Jacob, be reasonable.
Oh, Lieutenant Commander.
We are not back in Andover.
You do not get special privileges.
Yes, sir.
[JACOB]
- Arrest them.
Leave the wounded.
Yes, sir.
Drop your weapons.
Drop them, now!
How many do you think we could take?
Not enough.
Lay them down, boys.
They've won this day.
[metal clinks]
[metal clinks]
[chuckles]
Good choice.
Camp town, ladies
Sing this song
Doo-dah
Doo-dah
Camp town, fish tracks
Five miles long
All do our thing
[gags]
What was that?
Huh.
Must have been a rat.
[suspenseful music]
I think we lost him.
Yeah, but...
Where in the hell are we?
Well,
this place is an island, right?
Yeah.
Oh, if we keep going,
we'll find the shore.
Yeah,
hopefully find our way back to the beach.
Exactly.
Well...
Oh.
Looks like it could probably
be the rest of our crew.
I don't know.
Who else would it be?
- The Navy?
- Huh?
Well, if it is,
we'll get a drop on them.
Come on.
[CREDONIA]
- The path to enlightenment.
[CREDONIA] - lies neither
in the light or the dark.
[CREDONIA] - But
somewhere in the in-between.
[EVELYN]
- But what does that mean?
Let Credonia explain.
[CREDONIA]
- Thank you, Shadrach.
If
if two people have an argument,
is one right and the other wrong?
Yes.
Are you sure?
I mean...
No.
- Really?
- Of course.
Well, someone has to be right.
And someone has to be wrong.
This is the way things are.
Yes and no.
Well, I'm lost.
We all were.
Most of the time, they are both
right and they are both wrong.
Yeah, but... At least
sometimes, neither is right.
But we'll leave politicians out of this.
[everyone laughs]
What the hell is this place?
It looks like paradise.
You're welcome to join us.
There's no need to hide.
We mean you no harm.
Are you hungry?
We have plenty.
Sure, against the path.
And all are welcome on the path.
Yes, all are welcome.
Join us.
[mysterious music]
[leaves rustling]
Hey, Pa-Reh.
Can you loosen the rope just a little bit?
What?
Hey, knock it off.
Yeah, you trying to get us killed?
Pa-Reh, these ropes,
they're a little tight.
They're chafing me.
Yu.
I'm not in charge.
Hey, Meadows.
Not my call.
Ask Norton.
We are not loosening the ropes.
We're not loosening the ropes.
I heard.
Sorry.
That's okay, kid.
I know you're just doing your job,
but how about some water?
But it's not my call.
Hey, Norton.
Oh Miley, get away from the pirate.
[cannon blasts]
What was that?
It sounds like it's coming from the beach.
- Holy shit.
- Move, move.
Holy hell!
[ship creaking and burning]
- Did you think anyone could
- Not a chance.
Preachers gonna be on the war path.
Bolden Ash,
what are you trying to pull, sir?
Do you seriously believe
that anyone would not think that you,
a known pirate and murderer,
had nothing to do with the
destruction of the USS Perry
and the murder of her crew?
Not exactly do you propose if it possible?
For me to scuttle the
Perry and slaughter a crew,
I will abandon the rest.
Then what would you expect us to believe?
And I'm warning you, we have no patience
and no time for fairy tales.
May I remind you, sir,
I really don't care what
you choose to believe.
[multiple people speaking at once]
[judge's gavel bangs]
I think we've heard enough from you, sir.
[COURT CLERK]
- You are excused.
[COURT CLERK]
- For now.
Your Honor,
the people would like to call.
Lieutenant Commander Bridger
to the stand from the USS Perry.
[tense music builds]
Raise your right hand
and place your left hand on the Bible.
Do you swear to tell
the truth, the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth?
So help you God.
So help me God.
Lieutenant Commander Bridger,
could you explain to the court exactly
what your duties were on the USS Perry?
Yes, sir.
I was senior officer in charge.
My daily responsibilities
included taking care of the ship
as well as reporting directly
to the captain in Commodore.
Additionally, I was in
charge of boarding parties
as well as disciplinary actions
were inside my command and control.
Good, good.
Now, you are a highly decorated sailor
in the United States Navy, right?
Yes, sir. Would it be fair for this
court to treat you as a star witness
and that everything
that you say is a truth?
Deception is a quality that I abhor.
Good, very good.
Now,
tell me
in your own words, what
happened to the USS Perry?
With pleasure, sir.
But for clarity's sake,
I must first explain what
was happening on the
other side of the island.
Do we have to?
Yes, sir.
It is absolutely essential for the story.
All right.
You have the floor.
[instrumental music]
(gasps)
How'd you sleep last night, sweetie?
Not well.
I felt like I was being watched all night.
[laughs]
I slept like a baby.
Yeah, fussing and crying all night.
[laughs]
[ALVARO]
- She's right.
[tense music builds]
Where the hell did you come from?
I live here.
You weren't here last night.
I was on a hunt.
There was no meat at the dinner.
There will be tonight.
Great.
Food was good.
But I could go for a steak.
I trust you won't be disappoint.
How are we this fine morning?
I could eat the north end
of a southbound pole cap.
That's colorful.
I'm surprised you could eat
after everything you had last night.
Man here said he got some meat.
Did he now?
I take it your hunt went well.
Better than expected, my lady.
Excellent.
Then we have cause for celebration.
We have much to do to get ready
for the great feast tonight.
What time is it?
Oh, we don't have clocks around here.
Time is a way that the elites use
to control the lives of the workers.
In order to truly free yourself,
you must free yourself of all shackles.
So time is a shackle?
Time is a construct that chains us.
But we are losing sunlight
and there's much to do.
Come.
[peaceful music]
After you.
Thanks.
So gentlemanly of you.
An art's lost generations ago.
Pirates!
Sir?
You did this.
I don't think they did this, sir.
I am not talking to you, Petty Officer.
Jacob, if you think about it,
they could not possibly have done this.
Oh, you will address me as
Lieutenant Commander or Sir.
We are not kids anymore.
No, if we were kids, I would
shake some sense into you.
Oh, you think you're gonna bully me?
I am your superior officer.
And as such, I will have you...
I understand that, sir.
Interrupt me again
and I will have you busted
back down to third class!
We wouldn't do this.
You wouldn't destroy our ship.
I seem to recall you firing upon it.
That's different.
You fired upon us first.
That's different.
Didn't I just?
Not now, Yu.
Why did you call him that?
That's his name.
Your name is Yu?
That's right.
And you think we treat our slaves bad?
Are you kidding me right now?
Well, at least we give you names.
We had names, but you took them from us.
- But Yes, but
- But what?
How would you like to be with,
for looking at someone the wrong way?
Or how would you like to be fed the scraps
after the dogs already ate?
Or, better yet,
- how would like
- Somebody shut him up?
How about you make me?
Kill him before Wilson here
makes a bigger jackass out of himself.
Forma!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, guys.
Let's not get too hasty here.
If you kill him,
you have to go through me.
And I promise you,
I won't make it easy.
[laughs]
Fine.
Kill him too.
You may have all the
weapons, but I promise you,
you lay a hand on him.
I won't make it easy.
I don't need you fighting
my battles, Woods.
We're part of the same crew.
That makes us family.
And I'll die for my family.
Think of your men.
How many will die
taking us all down, huh?
Shut up, Woods.
And how many more will be maimed?
Shut up!
And how many will never
see their children again,
you fucking idiot?
How many, you... Fuck!
[screaming]
Woods!
[gun fires]
[grunts in pain]
[grunts]
[flesh is pierced]
For the love of God, Jacob.
Is that really necessary?
If these men so much,
as look at you wrong,
kill them.
So are you enjoying your time here?
Um,
it's nice.
Just nice?
Well, we haven't been here very long.
Ah, yes, that's true.
But that will change.
Soon,
you won't be able to imagine
yourself being anywhere else.
Excuse me?
When I first arrived?
Shadrach.
Sorry, I didn't mean to.
Let's keep the explanations to Credonia.
Of course.
We're so glad you decided to join us.
Who said we decided?
You haven't?
I just assumed.
And where else would you go?
Since your ship sank.
How'd you know our ship sunk?
What do you mean?
You told us.
We did?
Did we?
Last night?
At the party.
If you say so.
[SHADRACH] - Now you
and Kilgore will probably.
Credonia would like to see you.
Right now?
If Credonia wants to see you...
It's best to not keep her waiting.
Sure.
Lead the way.
Have a blessed day.
Come on.
You'll have to walk in these boots.
You'll take every blessing you can get.
[everyone laughs]
So what does that teach us?
Never trust outsiders.
Well, not exactly.
That's not what Anne told us.
Really?
She said they bring ruin.
And deceived us.
Well, they can do those things,
but only if you allow
them to remain outsiders.
I don't understand.
How did they not stay outsiders?
Who is more desperate?
The lone wolf or the pack?
The lone wolf.
Correct.
How do we stop a lone
wolf from being a lone wolf?
By being brought into the pack.
[CREDONIA]
- Brilliant.
That's why when we have
visitors, we welcome them.
But what if they mean us harm?
[laughs]
I think that would be very unwise indeed.
Lily, Steve, Jonas,
why don't you go help
and get dinner ready?
Our lesson isn't done.
Quiet!
Well, we always have till tomorrow.
I'll race you out.
Jonas, don't worry.
They shouldn't remain
outsiders for very long.
Welcome to Lemuria.
Thank you for joining us.
[chuckles]
Like you to give us much of a choice.
You always have choices.
You made a choice to be a pirate.
You made a choice to come to this island.
And you made a choice to stay with us.
The thing to remember is that
with our choices comes consequences.
I'd like to offer you the opportunity
to stay with us permanently.
And what would that entail?
Anne and Grace will
tell you on your journey.
Good luck.
I hope to see you soon.
[upbeat music]
This way, we have a long journey ahead.
[ANNE]
- Hurry!
You guys get visitors here often?
How long have you been here?
Longer than you can possibly imagine.
I don't know.
Got a pretty good imagination.
Do people find it funny?
They shouldn't.
What do you know of Lemuria?
I can't say we've heard of it.
I'm not surprised.
What about Kumari Kandam?
A lost continent?
Not lost.
But most of it was destroyed.
I thought that was in the Indian Ocean.
We did make many inroads
into the subcontinent in Africa.
We were always here.
Wait, what?
We spread too quickly.
We tried making allies
and training partners
with those that just
weren't ready for our gifts.
And then they decided to steal our riches.
Our merchants were captured, tortured.
They were forced to give our location.
Soon their armies arrived.
We were a peaceful nation,
but not without defenses.
So you repelled the armies?
[ANNE]
- In a manner of speaking.
Like with a... Credonia
pleaded with our Lord.
He interceded on our behalf.
Oh, God repelled armies.
Yes. [Laughs]
Enough.
He triggered a great
earthquake in the sea.
A tsunami 500 feet high
crushed into our land,
washed away the invaders
and most of our people.
Hundreds of thousands died.
Ten of us survived.
So you're saying you were there?
I was not.
Grace was.
And those of us who live
took shelter in the cave of Eacups.
So how long ago was this?
Use this track of time
after a few centuries,
but if I had to guess, I would say,
4,000, 5,000 years, give or take.
[KILGORE]
- You're messing with us.
She's messing with us.
Messing with you?
You're not joking? Hahaha!
We don't joke.
And this is where I must leave you.
What?
Out here in the middle of nowhere.
I must prepare the others.
Prepare the others for what?
You shall see.
This way.
What is this place?
This is the source of our power.
What power?
You've heard of the Fountain of Youth?
Of course, possibly
on search fort for years.
Well, he was looking in the wrong place.
This is the Fountain of Youth.
And the truth
was lost in the tales.
It is not a fountain.
Feel it.
Drink from it.
Then you may join us.
And if we don't?
Then you're on your own.
[ANNE]
- Good luck.
[mysterious music]
What the hell is she talking about?
Watch out for snakes.
I know, Dad.
Is that blood?
This place has given me the creeps.
What if this is actually the...
Fountain of Youth?
It's impossible.
Hmm.
Some would say.
It's just a myth.
We can't find any water nearby.
Maybe we have to use the cup and carry it?
Don't have time for that.
You got a better idea?
Where do you think that leads?
[blade pierces]
What the hell?
I had to fill the cauldron.
I thought you loved me.
I do.
Not as much as I love me.
[grunts]
[swords clanging]
[swords clanging]
Stay down, old man.
I told you to lay off the old master!
[swords clanging continues]
[flesh is pierced]
[breathing heavily]
[loud grunts in pain]
[grunts in pain]
It's okay, Dad.
Would it?
I know this is who you are.
Yeah, I am on it.
I forgive you.
Dad!
[somber music]
[grunts]
[gasping]
[cries in pain]
[breathes heavily]
[screaming]
I don't understand what
the Commodore sees in him.
He's the Commodore's attack dog.
It's time to get home.
Those shooters before we can get to him.
Perhaps.
Maybe we're in the
heart of that dumb good.
I can't lose any more men.
If you lose it, you lose it.
At least we go down fighting.
I got this, Captain.
I can take four of them.
We got this.
Keep quiet!
[MAGDALENA]
- And what exactly
is it that you think you've got?
Hold!
Who goes there?
[MAGDALENA]
- That depends on you.
What the hell do you mean by that?
[MAGDALENA]
- We could be your saviors,
[MAGDALENA] - or we could be your doom.
Time is now, Captain.
It's too risky.
It's now or never.
What is it you want?
To take you home.
Sounds like a trap.
[SHADRACH]
- Hello there.
We want to welcome you.
And invite you to a banquet.
We have warm beds,
but if you don't want...
Wait.
Yes?
A banquet?
I suppose there's no harm
in accepting your generous hospitality.
I don't think this is wise.
I agree with Thomas.
Thomas, if this were a medical matter,
I would take it under advisement.
But as it is, it is not.
That tears it, Bridger.
We are sick and tired of you
pushing everyone around
us like you own this place.
You can argue, but I don't
think it will end well for you.
Is that...
Is that a threat?
We don't take kindly to threats.
[EVELYN]
- And it appears
that your guests are
taking the opportunity...
[MAGDALENA]
- To a better their situation.
Please.
It's not far.
This way.
What are the plans?
I guess we follow.
[EVELYN]
- This plan.
I have a bad feeling about this.
Welcome to Lemuria.
Magdalena, I see you brought our guests.
Yes, Mistress.
You've done well.
Could you please go
prepare our cabin for them?
Of course.
Evelyn,
could you please get our
guests something cool to drink?
As you wish.
This is remarkable.
Yes, we have done well here.
I trust your journey
wasn't too distressing.
Of course it wasn't.
From what Kilgore says,
it was quite the battle.
Is it just Kilgore here?
I'm afraid so.
He was the only one to make it.
We were sense of scouts
to look for the others in the morning.
In the morning?
There's monsters out there.
Yes, there are.
But it would be unwise to go
searching blindly into the night.
[chuckles]
I'm sorry, where are my manners?
I am Credonia.
And these are my friends.
And this is Lemuria.
It's a pleasure.
Please,
eat, drink, enjoy.
What's ours is yours.
What should we do?
It would be rude to reject
such a fine display of hospitality.
Alvaro and I prepared this special feast
for you and Kilgore.
It is quite the occasion.
It is not often we have so many guests.
How did you know we were coming?
Kilgore told us.
They ran, gracious to the food.
On three.
One, two, three.
Not fair, wait.
Hey, wait for me.
Let's eat.
For once I agree with you.
Okay, gentlemen, this way.
We've gathered this all ourselves.
It's all very fresh.
Hmm, hungry.
Something doesn't feel right about this.
I agree.
Keep your eyes open.
I got a bad feeling about this.
[instrumental music]
There you go.
This will refresh you.
What is it?
It's elderberry wine.
Wow. You made this?
Yes, we did.
This is good.
It's an old family recipe.
Actually, this is really good.
I'm so glad that you like it.
Thank you.
Drink up.
Certainly.
Salud.
[mysterious music]
[door opens]
[mysterious music continues]
Guys, fuck.
Wake up, pirate.
I've got a name.
Oh, I'm sure you do.
But right now, I need answers.
And this couldn't wait a few more hours?
Where are O'Malley and Andreas Agrippa?
Who?
The Marines that carried your gear.
Last I saw, they were sleeping over there.
Well, they're missing.
Well, maybe they went piss.
Oh, enough of this.
Where are they?
We didn't do anything with them.
Oh, you are lying to me.
[SHAW]
- We're not lying.
I had to guess.
Looks like they were dragged out.
Maybe you should check outside.
Bridger.
What is it, sergeant?
First, either call me by
my rank or by my name.
Fine,
Thomas.
Isn't this place amazing?
It certainly is something.
Kilgore.
Where is Flora?
Um,
I'm not sure. We were separated.
And you're not worried about her?
Of course, she's my daughter.
Then we need to go find her.
But that's not a good idea.
Why not?
They took us to this cave.
Well, what cave?
They called it the Fountain of Youth.
[KILGORE]
- I really wasn't listening.
Did he just say Fountain of Youth?
[WILSON] - Bridger, what
the hell are you doing?
This may actually be our chance
to save this disaster of an excursion.
I don't know.
Hey, trust me.
So where is it?
Should we be moving this fast?
I don't know.
Pirates said it's several miles this way.
We should pace ourselves.
Might be alerting the things
spinning out of the night.
No, no. They're dead.
You don't know that, sir.
Quit your whining.
No, seriously. Those
things took a lot to kill.
If something's out here,
we'll lift them a mile away
with a way we're stomping
through the woods like this.
A slower pace allows for better awareness.
No, no, no.
Petty officer's right.
Let's approach with a little more caution.
Yeah, it's pretty strong.
[mysterious music]
Dear God,
what are you doing?
Is that O'Malley?
Oh, great.
I guess this speeds things up.
Can you take care of them?
[gruesome tearing sounds]
[wet chewing sounds]
With pleasure.
Oh, Alvaro,
don't play with your food.
Think what you're doing.
We have you outnumbered, friend.
Do you now?
Does that make you feel safe?
Secure?
It should make you feel wary.
And why is that?
You strike one of us down,
the men will come in here and kill you
before you can even say a word.
I see.
So let me make this easier on you.
What?
I'll let you swing first.
Swing first?
Come on.
I won't even block.
He's being serious?
Deadly.
[metal clinks]
Shoot him!
Bush, get out of the way.
I said don't play.
Come on.
Let me have some fun.
Fine.
Just don't take too long.
We now have three more
carcasses to carve for dinner.
[flesh is pierced]
[swords clash]
[grunts]
[swords clash]
How about you fight me?
[grunts]
Run, Jacob!
Norton.
[swords clanging]
Run, Jacob!
I'm sorry.
[swords clanging]
[grunts]
Come on.
Things are not what they seem.
We are food.
We have got to go.
You and you.
Guard the door.
Let's go.
It's time to go.
Kilgore.
I'm staying here.
Wait, what?
What do you mean you're staying here?
- Don't be crazy.
- This is my home.
This is my family now.
What did you do?
Kilgore.
Kilgore, what have you done?
You killed Flora, didn't you?
You did.
You killed your own daughter, you bastard.
She didn't want to stay.
She's your own girl!
- She was one of us.
- Shaw, I had no choice.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
I belong here now.
They've got in your head, man.
You all should run now.
Credonia will kill you.
[tense music builds]
They know?
What do we do?
We welcome them.
We can't accept that many.
It's not up to us.
Credonia will decide.
Then where is she?
Do you doubt her?
That would be a fatal mistake.
Credonia's will is final.
Have you forgotten your place?
I'm sorry.
Not yet.
But you will be.
She is here.
Perhaps you should pray.
Good luck.
We have shown these outsiders kindness.
We have shown them charity and mercy.
And what have they shown us?
Disrespect.
They try and take what is ours.
Right.
They spit on our manners.
They try to steal our secrets.
They try to take our power as their own.
No, they can't.
They are not alone.
Child,
I've been told I have
reason to doubt your loyalty.
Are you with us or against us?
I am with you
until my last breath.
Now I wish I could believe you.
I love you.
You did once.
Take her away.
Yes, my lady.
Are there any other doubters?
No, ma'am.
Then let's show them what power truly is.
We are the United States Navy!
We do not run!
We fight!
All right, men.
Deal with them.
Let's do this.
[gun fires]
[swords clanging]
[grunts]
[swords clanging continues]
All right.
Let's go get this bitch.
[swords clanging]
Shoot her!
I can't get a clear shot.
Shoot her!
[gun fires]
Oh, in God's name?
I've no idea.
God has nothing to do with it.
Run! Run!
No.
Hey!
[thuds]
Our weapon.
What?
Give us our weapons.
Absolutely not.
You need our help.
- Do it.
- Yes, sir.
[sword swings]
[grunts continues]
[breathes heavily]
[screaming]
All right.
Let's kill some cultists.
Leave the giant to me.
I'm sure you can handle this.
Child, I've been disposing
of scum worse than you,
since your grandmother was
a friend to your father's eye.
[foreign language]
[grunts]
[ANNE]
- You could have had this power.
This strength that even
our children possess.
[flesh is pierced]
[swords clanging]
[sword swings]
[grunts]
This could have been yours.
And now you're foes.
[grunts]
[metal clinks]
[flesh is pierced]
Surrender now and we will spare you.
Spare me?
You have no idea what it is that you face.
[swords clanging]
[grunts]
[flesh is pierced]
[flesh is pierced]
[metal clinks]
[grunts]
There don't have to be any more bloodshed.
- We can end this now.
- No! We can't.
You spit on our gifts.
Now you must pay.
Finish them!
As you wish.
I got you, boys!
Kilgore, what are you doing?
What I should have done a long time ago.
What does that mean?
Forgive me, sweetie.
[blasts]
[coughs]
Shaw, you all right?
I'm all right. You?
[sighing]
- I've been better.
- Can you walk?
Ah, hell, why not?
[grunts]
In case you were wondering,
I'm okay too.
Don't worry.
We weren't.
See if I help you again.
When does the help start?
If it wasn't for me,
you'd both be dead.
There's something moving in there.
Whatever it is,
I don't want to wait to find out.
It could be Kilgore.
Nah, for once, I think Brindger's right.
Let's go.
[mysterious music]
What the...
How?
I've been on this island for 175 years.
I know every inch of my island.
Just let us pass, mate.
We really don't want to have to harm you.
No one here needs to die.
It's a little too late for that.
[metal clinks]
Bastard.
[grunts]
Do you recognize it?
He put up quite the fight.
Surprising for someone so pampered.
He's a hero!
[grunts]
We've given you a chance.
You did.
You should have taken it.
We shall see.
[steel clashes]
[grunts]
[swords clanging]
[thuds continues]

Drake.
[breathes heavily]
A little over confident.
[flesh is pierced]
[gun fires]
[instrumental music]
[grunts continues]
Thank you.
You're welcome.
You're not used to being thanked.
[chuckles]
Not with any degree of sincerity.
Ah, fuck.
I'd leave that.
We should head to the beach.
Is that wise?
Well, then we have to guard one side.
Easy now.
We got this.
Wait.
Is that what I think it is?
[triumphant music]
I think so.
[victorious laughs]
We're saved.
We're saved!
[both laughs]
Get me off this fucking island!
Mr. Bridger,
do you believe that Tiberius Shaw
was the one who destroyed the USS Perry
and killed its crew?
Not Mr. Shaw.
No, sir.
What What are you talking about, sir?
I found Mr. Shaw's behavior
to be above reproach.
[BRIDGER] - Not only
was he not responsible
for the destruction of the USS Perry,
he was responsible for saving my life
and guaranteeing me free
passage back to civilization.
[BRIDGER]
- In fact, sir,
I would be so bold as to say.
That if were he a member
of the United States Navy,
I would recommend
him for a Medal of Valor.
Your Honor, I respectfully ask that
every word of this man's testimony
be struck from the record.
Overruled!
What?
Then...
I have no more questions, Your Honor.
Very well.
Your witness, Mr. Collins.
Thank you, Your Honor.
Lieutenant Commander Bridger,
do you still swear that
your testimony is true
and made without coercion
or made under duress?
Yes, sir, I do.
Your Honor, the defense rests.
There are times when a
magistrate's job is easy,
and there are times
when it is very difficult.
Today
is an easy day.
What has been despite
its facts by one side
has been refuted by the other.
Facts do not change.
But opinions...
An opinion is information
available at the time
of the formulation of that set opinion.
That information may,
or may not always be true and factual,
whether intended or not.
Thus,
it is the opinion of this court
that Tiberius Shaw
is innocent.
[crowd talking]
Your Honor!
[crowd talking]
innocent of the charges against him
and so ordered to be released at once.
Court is adjourned.
Okay, I am so sorry.
My hands are tied.
Your hands are tied?
This is a travesty.
Where are you going?
You are mine.
[crowd talking]
What are you gonna do without them?
I demanded this trial.
[inaudible]
- No!
- No!
This is a travesty.
I am so sorry.
Something something went wrong.
I will appeal.
That won't bring our son back.
I'm so sorry.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Ah.
My Lady.
Well done, William.
We shall take it from here.
Yes.
Until next time, my Lady.
So you're a free man?
Now what?
Thank you for your service.
You've been extremely
helpful to our cause.
We'll have to keep our eye on you.
My pleasure.

[CAPTAIN BURE]
- Find your stations,
[CAPTAIN BURE] - we will outrun them.
[CAPTAIN BURE]
- Drake!
[DRAKE]
- Yes sir.
Hand me my spy glass.
[fast-paced action music]
Who is it?
Americans.
[cannon fuse hisses then fires]
What?
They want their ship back.
I think after 15 years they give that up.
[cannon booms]
Apparently not.
Waku, I thought we were in Mexican waters.
We are, Captain.
Commodore, they do not seem
like they're changing course.
Keep on firing, they'll make
a mistake soon enough.
[cannon fires]
Shaw, Ortiz!
Aye, Captain.
What do we know of the USS Perry?
It's a hunter.
It was recently taken
over by Commodore Oliver.
The Commodore is in the slave trade.
Are you sure of this?
Yes, Captain.
He and his Lieutenant Commander
are the reason I deserted.
Perhaps the warning shots aren't enough.
Damage Navy property.
Not to mention the cargo.
Commodore, I am the
captain of the USS Perry,
and I assure you we are quite
capable of precision targeting.
Very well.
Order the gunners to put
one in their starboard side.
Aye, aye, sir.
Captain, just one for now.
We'll be done, sir.
[cannon fires]
[cannon blasts]
What happened?
That last blast knocked the keg over, sir.
It's all in the [cannon blasts]
[grunts in pain]
[grunting continues]
Shaw!
Let's show these bastards
what we're made of.
Kilgore, this is your time to shine.
[everyone laughs]
Waku!
Fire the port!
Yes, sir!
[upbeat music playing]
[distant cannon fire]
[KILGORE]
- Come on, you heard the man.
Time to have some fun.
[everyone laughs]
[tense music playing]
Fire!
[cannon blasts]
[action music intensifies]
[cannon blasts]
[cheering and screaming]
That'll make them think twice
before messing with us again.
Bring it on!
[canyon blasts]
Captain Arnold, ready
to cannon the spot in time.
With all due respect, sir,
our mission is to capture and return,
not damage and destroy.
Captain Arnold,
I am sure Lieutenant Commander Bridget
would follow my orders without question.
You understand?
I do, sir.
Get those guns to work, now!
Roger, Mel.
On your porch.
All right, Captain.
Ready cannon, storm inside!
[canyon fires]
Take cover!
[cannon thunders]
Oh, that was close.
- Oh, are you OK?
- Yeah, and you?
[gunshot]
Mr. Shaw, we have casualties!
[cannon blasts]
[CURSED WATERS]
[instrumental music]
On your feet, scum.
Let's get this over with.
- Dirty pirate!
- Coward!
Get out of here!
[crowd talking]
It's judgement day, you pirate.
[crowd talking]
Nothing like a nice straw in the morning.
[crowd talking continues]
[JUDGE WILLIAM] - Will
the defendant please rise?
State your name and
occupation for the record, sir.
Tiberius Shaw.
Merchant marine.
Mr. Shaw,
you are charged with piracy,
aiding and abetting runaway slaves,
and most importantly, the
destruction of the USS Perry
and the deaths of its officers and mates.
How say you?
Not guilty.
For the defense motions
for dismissal of this case.
My client was unconscious for the majority
of what he has accused.
[JUDGE WILLIAM]
- Motion denied.
Mr. Prosecutor, have
your opening statements?
Yes, sir.
Thank you, Your Honor.
With the court's indulgence,
I would like to prove beyond doubt,
that the pirate,
Mr. Shaw, over here...
Was guilty of all of the atrocities
that he had been charged with.
[tense music builds]
He's a pirate.
Mr. Shaw's pirating is
well known in this court.
And I don't think we
need to elaborate on it
to make him feel better.
However,
he has now gone into the
runaway slave business,
which is quite logical because
the captain of his ship is
a runaway slave.
Now, we are not here
just for that, Your Honor.
We are here because on the 26th of May,
in the year of his lord, 1850,
the USS Perry was out on
routine patrol in US waters
when they came upon a ship
that had been stolen from the US Navy,
the USS Frost.
It was now a pirate ship and renamed...
The Chain Breaker.
Objection.
Over rule.
Now, an attempt was made
quietly and within the law
to board the Chain
Breaker to take into custody
the captain and the crew.
They were repelled violently
in a huge fighting show.
Your Honor, the prosecutor is
going to be giving a testimony.
He should at least be under row.
[cinematic music swells]
[ED]
- Sir, I have an idea.
It will let you escape.
What do you mean, let you escape?
We will all escape.
[Explosion]
Sir, we don't have time to argue.
For the record, Ed, I do not like this.
Sir, if we don't act now,
none of us will escape.
Trust me.
What do you need, Ed?
Thank you, Captain.
[cannon fires repeatedly]
Are you ready?
As ready as I'll ever be.
I've been looking forward to this.
I bet you have.
Been a while since we
were boarding the ship.
What, you worried you've forgotten how?
Oh, it's like riding the horse.
You never forget.
When were you on the horse?
I had a long, fulfilling life
before joining you brigands.
Well, was it you did
again, cattle rustler?
Let's get to it then.
Yeah?
Time to die.
[ship creaking]
[fighting shouts]
Gentlemen.
[grunts]
[somber music]
Hi there.
[swords clanging]
[grunts]
[grunts continues]
[grunts]
Now, you have?
Shit, it's not breaking.
[gun fires]
Try it now!
You're in the wrong ship, my friend.
I'm right where I want to be.
[grunts continues]
[swords clanging]
I'm going to make sure you
don't get off this ship alive.
And neither are you.
Hurry!
Working on it.
[gun fires]
[grunts]
Nowhere to run to now, pirate.
We have you surrounded.
Surrender now.
We won't offer again.
I've taken up more than you to stop.
- Keep him contained.
- Careful what you wish for.
Show me what you have, cowards.
Show me!
[man yells]
[man grunts]
Who's next?
[grunts]
Fuck!
[gun fires]
Cowards.
[cannon fires repeatedly]
It's gonna blow!
My eyes!
I can't see.
My eyes.
You've got to help him.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
No, Kilgore, please.
Please.
We really got to get out of here.
Kilgore.
- What are you...
- There is nothing I can do.
- Please, help me out here.
- Fire in a hole.
Where are you going?
- What's happening?
- It's all right.
I got you, I got you, I got you.
Thomas... - What's happening?
- I got you, I got you.
[man grunts]
[cannon blasts]
Was that the deposit keg?
What do we do, sir?
You need to abandon ship.
Wait, no!
We can still win this.
[cannon blasts]
Cap!
[gun fires]
[gasps in pain]
[groans in pain]
- Take it easy, Cap.
- I'm fine.
[blade is withdrawn]
[labored breathing]
[grunts in pain]
Okay.
We have to abandon ship.
Cap, the ship?
Do you know why they
call it the Chain Breaker?
The Chain Breaker is
someone who frees slaves.
Yes.
Break it free.
Men from their captivity.
And it freed me from their capitalism.
And it freed them.
It freed them from
the from the structure.
[cannon blasts]
Drake,
it freed me.
It freed Waku.
It freed Ford.
It freed you.
And the rest of you.
They may take this ship.
They may take our lives.
But that
the legacy
of breaking chains,
they will never take from us.
No.
Abandon ship!
[gasps in pain]
We need to go to war.
Are you okay?
[painful grunting]
I thought I ordered you to abandon ship.
With all due respect, Captain?
No.
That's an order, we we're glad to stay.
Over and over.
Why?
We know who's on that ship.
We know what he did to you.
We can't let him put you
back in chains, Captain.
You know,
we could all die here.
But this is our choice.
It'll take a lot of those
bastards with us.
Yeah.
Stay behind us, sir.
Never.
It's been an honor,
sir.
No.
The honor
has been mine.
Charge!
[cheering and screaming]
[swords clanging]
Hey!
[gun fires]
Hey!
[gun fires]
[sword swishes]
Hey!
Okay.
[labored breathing]
[loud grunts in pain]
Come on.
Come on.
[swords clanging]
[grunts in pain]
[painful grunts]
[COMMODORE OLIVER]
- Stand out.
As you wish.
Look at me, boy.
William.
Good to see you again.
That's not my name.
That was your name, all right.
Name I grew up calling you by.
Name my father gave to you.
That
is
not
my name.
So what shall I call you now?
Bure.
Bure?
Well, you gave us quite a chase.
[laughs mockingly]
You wanted your ship back so badly.
Officially.
Unofficially.
Why were you so impatient?
I mean, come on, now, life
couldn't have been all that bad.
We fed you, we housed you.
Even taught you to read.
Any idea how rare that is?
They're very good to you.
Good to me?
My mother died of starvation.
You beat me.
You threw my father
in a Corbin for a week!
That was my father.
Maybe.
But it was you.
You.
You drowned my daughter.
You realize if you'd have
just waited ten more years,
I would have freed you?
Waited?
Ten years?
I should have left ten years earlier.
[thuds]
[grunts in pain]
You thank the good Lord
that I'm the one that found you.
If it had been anybody else,
there'd be no question
what to do with you.
It seems to me it'd be
a waste to hang you.
I could just bring you home instead.
I would rather die
than go home with you.
Well, that can be arranged.
Goodbye, William.
[laughs mockingly]
You may chain my hands.
You may even shackle my feet.
[grunts in pain]
[melancholic music]
You may throw me in a dog prison.
But you will never enslave my thinking.
Because that is free.
[flesh is pierced]
[dramatic music]
I'm getting too old for this.
You telling me?
You think at some point
we'd figure out something.
You learned how to swim.
Well, I'll tell you what,
I was swimming long before
you were glimpsed in your papi's eye.
[FRANCIS]
- I'll tell you, Richard.
If you want such a good
cook... Watch it, Francis.
I may be good with food,
but I'm good with poison, too.
All right, lads.
Well, on that note, I
think I'll be taking a leaf.
Are you really good with poison?
[RICHARD]
- How do I know?
But I figure if socialites
in London can do it.
I mean, how hard can it be?
How do you think the captain really fares?
I don't know.
He's pretty banged up.
But you know, bury me last Bure,
he's been through worse.
Hey, you're always the optimist.
Been together for a
long time on that boat.
Indeed.
Been a lot of good.
Made a little coin.
A little?
He really made us rich.
Rich?
I could buy my own island.
Must be a small island.
Why are you here, Sebastian?
What?
Was it only for the coin?
What else would it be?
The ship was different.
- Bure was different.
- Exactly.
So I ask you again, Sebastian.
Why are you here?
Well, I do admit, it did feel good.
What did?
Everything that we did.
Bure brought out the best in all of us.
Aye.
Saved a lot of people.
Men,
women,
and children.
Delivered them all to freedom.
At least temporarily.
Don't say that.
What?
It wasn't temporary.
There's no way for us to be sure of that.
I'll tell you what I do know.
When they look back
at this time in history,
we will be the heroes.
Big damn heroes.
[KILGORE]
- Drake.
Playing Captain?
We have a Captain.
And it ain't me.
We had a Captain.
And it is you.
[chuckles]
What's the plan?
Where are we out of powder?
Yeah, we're lucky to even
have gotten out of there alive.
How are we supposed to defend ourselves?
We have swords.
They'll have guns.
It'll have to do.
Aye, sir.
All right.
Take who's left.
Go scavenge for food.
We're going to need to eat soon.
Oh.
Take Flora.
For protection.
Aye, aye.
[chuckles]
[birds soaring overhead]
[KILGORE]
- Flora.
There's my sweetie.
Drake wants you to find
some animals for some food.
He wants me to make sure
I tag along for protection.
Oh, I'm sure that's
exactly how he said it.
Come on, old man, protect me.
Hold on now.
Easy with the old man stuff.
You know your dad's got to have a
reputation he's got to uphold.
I'm sure we'll find something
for you to blow up along the way.
I sure hope you're right.
[laughs]
Come on, come on.
Hey.
Wilson, report.
There is significant
damage to the foremast
and damage to the port side, sir.
How long for repairs?
Three days, sir.
All right, then.
Casualties?
15 injured, 5 dead, 2 missing.
Missing?
Two, sir.
We have a party searching for them.
I see.
So where exactly are we?
[ship crew] - Somewhere
near Baja, California.
[CAPTAIN ARNOLD]
- Somewhere?
[ship crew] - Yes, sir. [CAPTAIN
ARNOLD] - And how do you not know
exactly where we are?
Well...
Well, what?
There's a landmass out there
that's not on any of the maps.
A landmass?
Yes, an island.
Maybe this trip wasn't just
a wait for the time after all.
Ahh, Lieutenant Commander Bridger.
How is the Chain Breaker?
It's beyond saving.
We did manage to salvage some parts
for repairs before Scotland, the vessel.
Pity, huh.
[OLIVER] - Gentlemen,
we still have work to do.
We need to stamp out this pirate threat.
We destroyed their ship.
BUt not their spirit.
I'm not following you.
Their captain is now martyr to them.
And we're going to need to squash
all of them to end his influence.
- Commodore, perhaps I should
- No.
Captain Arnold, you are to remain
on this ship and oversee repairs.
Lieutenant Commander Bridger
will take the rest of you
on to the island along with
the contingent of Marines
and pursue the pirates.
Bring me back at least one alive.
Kill the rest.
Yes, sir.
Norton.
Yes, Lieutenant Commander?
Round up your best men.
We'll leave in half an hour.
[door opens]
Mr. Prosecutor, you
may call your first witness.
Thank you, Your Honor.
With your indulgence, I would like to call.
Tiberius to the stand.
Come, Mr. Shaw.
Raise your right hand.
Place the left one on the Bible.
Do you swear to tell the truth,
the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth,
so help you God.
I swear it.
Mr. Shaw,
isn't not true that when
your captain was injured,
you left him to die,
and you abandoned your ship?
No, sir.
We were badly damaged and sinking.
We abandoned ship by order
of the captain and Mr. Drake.
I see.
Was it also not true
that when you found out
that Commodore Oliver's family owned
your runaway slave who was your captain,
you decided to kill the crew
of the SS Perry
and then take that ship as your own?
Objection.
Overruled.
Your Honor.
No, sit down.
Thank you, Your Honor.
You will answer the
question, Mr. Shaw.
The Commodore's connection
to the captain was known.
It was my loyalty that determined
that the captain should be rescued.
I had nothing to do with the
demise of the Perry Ojo crew.
When your original plan did not work,
you came up with a second one,
which included killing your first mate,
and then you would become the captain
and taking the ship as your own.
I'd love to see you try to prove that.
Oh.
I will, and you, my friend,
will see.
[upbeat music]
We should have stayed
back there and fought.
I don't know.
I suppose we'd all been killed.
Not necessarily.
They may have captured a couple of us.
It's her tooth coat
with all of this bitching.
He's right.
There's something out
there that knows we're here.
I think the captain is getting that away.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
All are not hunters who blow the horn.
Wise man as always.
You understand him?
Of course, you don't?
Why would we?
Waku's been on the ship for over a decade.
All you had to do was ask.
[man grunts]
What the...
What's this?
[man shouting]
Let's get the hell out of here!
You can't tell me twice.
Where the hell is it coming from?
Who cares?
[man grunts]
Atto!
[man grunts]
[WAKU]
- Hey, are you okay?
I need just rest.
Waku, are you okay?
Go.
No.
[man grunts]
I'm not leaving!
I will buy you some time.
But...
Go.
[grunting]
[grunting]
[grunting]
Die in peace!
What...
In the hell
are we looking for?
A cave.
Why?
Because it gives us a defensible position.
Or a choke point.
Exactly.
That's not a good thing.
Not for them.
If we get caught in a cave...
Then we all die horrible deaths.
But we take as many of those boot-lickin'
American bastards with us as we can.
Haha!
That sounds like a plan.
A terrible one.
[suspense music playing]
Do you hear something?
Yeah.
What is that?
Is that...
Is that singing?
Wait, do you think that could be Flora?
You ever heard Flora sing before?
Never.
At least,
not like that.
Yeah, well, what are we waiting on?
Let's go.
Maybe we should go and...
Check it out.
You want to check out who's singing?
Coming from somewhere
on a deserted island.
They might need our help.
Yeah.
And I bet they'd be very
thankful if we helped them.
[MARSH]
- You're disgusting.
What?
It's been a while since I've
been around a real woman.
Let's just get on with it.
[mysterious music]
Welcome to our home.
- Closer.
- Please.
Come closer.
It's been so long since we've had company.
Won't you please come closer?
Come closer.
- Closer.
- Please.
We are so lonely.
Marsh, Dora, snap out of it.
They're so lonely.
[mysterious music continues]
Call me.
[snarls]
[fast-paced action music]
[screaming]
[screams]
Jett!
No!
Damn it.
No!
Sebastian!
No!
Come on, bitch.
[grunting]
[grunting]
[growls]
[growls]
- Ben!
Shit!
[gun fires]
[grunting]
Boss line!
Concentrate your fire!
[gunshots continues]
Take away!
Is it a siren?
Don't worry, just shoot it.
[gun fires continues]
[screaming]
Hey, take over!
[yelling]
Sally, take charge!
Take charge!
[yelling]
[music playing]
[growls]
Stay back!
You see any others?
No, it's all clear.
[gun fires]
Ripley!
No!
No!
No!
No!
No!
[laughs mockingly]
Don't die.
I'll go get help.
[laughs mockingly]
Oh.
Ripley Ortiz!
So good to see you again.
Now, go to hell, you bastard!
Saved me a seat.
[gun fires]
You bastard!
What about words?
I knew we could trust that son of a bitch!
You didn't have to do that.
[gasp]
And why is that?
They were surrendering.
I didn't hear them say it.
You didn't know if they were.
[laughs mockingly]
No.
I don't, in fact.
So why do we make this easy?
We only have to bring
one of them back alive.
So if they don't I'll surrender
in the next three seconds.
Kill them all but the tall one.
Jacob, be reasonable.
Oh, Lieutenant Commander.
We are not back in Andover.
You do not get special privileges.
Yes, sir.
[JACOB]
- Arrest them.
Leave the wounded.
Yes, sir.
Drop your weapons.
Drop them, now!
How many do you think we could take?
Not enough.
Lay them down, boys.
They've won this day.
[metal clinks]
[metal clinks]
[chuckles]
Good choice.
Camp town, ladies
Sing this song
Doo-dah
Doo-dah
Camp town, fish tracks
Five miles long
All do our thing
[gags]
What was that?
Huh.
Must have been a rat.
[suspenseful music]
I think we lost him.
Yeah, but...
Where in the hell are we?
Well,
this place is an island, right?
Yeah.
Oh, if we keep going,
we'll find the shore.
Yeah,
hopefully find our way back to the beach.
Exactly.
Well...
Oh.
Looks like it could probably
be the rest of our crew.
I don't know.
Who else would it be?
- The Navy?
- Huh?
Well, if it is,
we'll get a drop on them.
Come on.
[CREDONIA]
- The path to enlightenment.
[CREDONIA] - lies neither
in the light or the dark.
[CREDONIA] - But
somewhere in the in-between.
[EVELYN]
- But what does that mean?
Let Credonia explain.
[CREDONIA]
- Thank you, Shadrach.
If
if two people have an argument,
is one right and the other wrong?
Yes.
Are you sure?
I mean...
No.
- Really?
- Of course.
Well, someone has to be right.
And someone has to be wrong.
This is the way things are.
Yes and no.
Well, I'm lost.
We all were.
Most of the time, they are both
right and they are both wrong.
Yeah, but... At least
sometimes, neither is right.
But we'll leave politicians out of this.
[everyone laughs]
What the hell is this place?
It looks like paradise.
You're welcome to join us.
There's no need to hide.
We mean you no harm.
Are you hungry?
We have plenty.
Sure, against the path.
And all are welcome on the path.
Yes, all are welcome.
Join us.
[mysterious music]
[leaves rustling]
Hey, Pa-Reh.
Can you loosen the rope just a little bit?
What?
Hey, knock it off.
Yeah, you trying to get us killed?
Pa-Reh, these ropes,
they're a little tight.
They're chafing me.
Yu.
I'm not in charge.
Hey, Meadows.
Not my call.
Ask Norton.
We are not loosening the ropes.
We're not loosening the ropes.
I heard.
Sorry.
That's okay, kid.
I know you're just doing your job,
but how about some water?
But it's not my call.
Hey, Norton.
Oh Miley, get away from the pirate.
[cannon blasts]
What was that?
It sounds like it's coming from the beach.
- Holy shit.
- Move, move.
Holy hell!
[ship creaking and burning]
- Did you think anyone could
- Not a chance.
Preachers gonna be on the war path.
Bolden Ash,
what are you trying to pull, sir?
Do you seriously believe
that anyone would not think that you,
a known pirate and murderer,
had nothing to do with the
destruction of the USS Perry
and the murder of her crew?
Not exactly do you propose if it possible?
For me to scuttle the
Perry and slaughter a crew,
I will abandon the rest.
Then what would you expect us to believe?
And I'm warning you, we have no patience
and no time for fairy tales.
May I remind you, sir,
I really don't care what
you choose to believe.
[multiple people speaking at once]
[judge's gavel bangs]
I think we've heard enough from you, sir.
[COURT CLERK]
- You are excused.
[COURT CLERK]
- For now.
Your Honor,
the people would like to call.
Lieutenant Commander Bridger
to the stand from the USS Perry.
[tense music builds]
Raise your right hand
and place your left hand on the Bible.
Do you swear to tell
the truth, the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth?
So help you God.
So help me God.
Lieutenant Commander Bridger,
could you explain to the court exactly
what your duties were on the USS Perry?
Yes, sir.
I was senior officer in charge.
My daily responsibilities
included taking care of the ship
as well as reporting directly
to the captain in Commodore.
Additionally, I was in
charge of boarding parties
as well as disciplinary actions
were inside my command and control.
Good, good.
Now, you are a highly decorated sailor
in the United States Navy, right?
Yes, sir. Would it be fair for this
court to treat you as a star witness
and that everything
that you say is a truth?
Deception is a quality that I abhor.
Good, very good.
Now,
tell me
in your own words, what
happened to the USS Perry?
With pleasure, sir.
But for clarity's sake,
I must first explain what
was happening on the
other side of the island.
Do we have to?
Yes, sir.
It is absolutely essential for the story.
All right.
You have the floor.
[instrumental music]
(gasps)
How'd you sleep last night, sweetie?
Not well.
I felt like I was being watched all night.
[laughs]
I slept like a baby.
Yeah, fussing and crying all night.
[laughs]
[ALVARO]
- She's right.
[tense music builds]
Where the hell did you come from?
I live here.
You weren't here last night.
I was on a hunt.
There was no meat at the dinner.
There will be tonight.
Great.
Food was good.
But I could go for a steak.
I trust you won't be disappoint.
How are we this fine morning?
I could eat the north end
of a southbound pole cap.
That's colorful.
I'm surprised you could eat
after everything you had last night.
Man here said he got some meat.
Did he now?
I take it your hunt went well.
Better than expected, my lady.
Excellent.
Then we have cause for celebration.
We have much to do to get ready
for the great feast tonight.
What time is it?
Oh, we don't have clocks around here.
Time is a way that the elites use
to control the lives of the workers.
In order to truly free yourself,
you must free yourself of all shackles.
So time is a shackle?
Time is a construct that chains us.
But we are losing sunlight
and there's much to do.
Come.
[peaceful music]
After you.
Thanks.
So gentlemanly of you.
An art's lost generations ago.
Pirates!
Sir?
You did this.
I don't think they did this, sir.
I am not talking to you, Petty Officer.
Jacob, if you think about it,
they could not possibly have done this.
Oh, you will address me as
Lieutenant Commander or Sir.
We are not kids anymore.
No, if we were kids, I would
shake some sense into you.
Oh, you think you're gonna bully me?
I am your superior officer.
And as such, I will have you...
I understand that, sir.
Interrupt me again
and I will have you busted
back down to third class!
We wouldn't do this.
You wouldn't destroy our ship.
I seem to recall you firing upon it.
That's different.
You fired upon us first.
That's different.
Didn't I just?
Not now, Yu.
Why did you call him that?
That's his name.
Your name is Yu?
That's right.
And you think we treat our slaves bad?
Are you kidding me right now?
Well, at least we give you names.
We had names, but you took them from us.
- But Yes, but
- But what?
How would you like to be with,
for looking at someone the wrong way?
Or how would you like to be fed the scraps
after the dogs already ate?
Or, better yet,
- how would like
- Somebody shut him up?
How about you make me?
Kill him before Wilson here
makes a bigger jackass out of himself.
Forma!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, guys.
Let's not get too hasty here.
If you kill him,
you have to go through me.
And I promise you,
I won't make it easy.
[laughs]
Fine.
Kill him too.
You may have all the
weapons, but I promise you,
you lay a hand on him.
I won't make it easy.
I don't need you fighting
my battles, Woods.
We're part of the same crew.
That makes us family.
And I'll die for my family.
Think of your men.
How many will die
taking us all down, huh?
Shut up, Woods.
And how many more will be maimed?
Shut up!
And how many will never
see their children again,
you fucking idiot?
How many, you... Fuck!
[screaming]
Woods!
[gun fires]
[grunts in pain]
[grunts]
[flesh is pierced]
For the love of God, Jacob.
Is that really necessary?
If these men so much,
as look at you wrong,
kill them.
So are you enjoying your time here?
Um,
it's nice.
Just nice?
Well, we haven't been here very long.
Ah, yes, that's true.
But that will change.
Soon,
you won't be able to imagine
yourself being anywhere else.
Excuse me?
When I first arrived?
Shadrach.
Sorry, I didn't mean to.
Let's keep the explanations to Credonia.
Of course.
We're so glad you decided to join us.
Who said we decided?
You haven't?
I just assumed.
And where else would you go?
Since your ship sank.
How'd you know our ship sunk?
What do you mean?
You told us.
We did?
Did we?
Last night?
At the party.
If you say so.
[SHADRACH] - Now you
and Kilgore will probably.
Credonia would like to see you.
Right now?
If Credonia wants to see you...
It's best to not keep her waiting.
Sure.
Lead the way.
Have a blessed day.
Come on.
You'll have to walk in these boots.
You'll take every blessing you can get.
[everyone laughs]
So what does that teach us?
Never trust outsiders.
Well, not exactly.
That's not what Anne told us.
Really?
She said they bring ruin.
And deceived us.
Well, they can do those things,
but only if you allow
them to remain outsiders.
I don't understand.
How did they not stay outsiders?
Who is more desperate?
The lone wolf or the pack?
The lone wolf.
Correct.
How do we stop a lone
wolf from being a lone wolf?
By being brought into the pack.
[CREDONIA]
- Brilliant.
That's why when we have
visitors, we welcome them.
But what if they mean us harm?
[laughs]
I think that would be very unwise indeed.
Lily, Steve, Jonas,
why don't you go help
and get dinner ready?
Our lesson isn't done.
Quiet!
Well, we always have till tomorrow.
I'll race you out.
Jonas, don't worry.
They shouldn't remain
outsiders for very long.
Welcome to Lemuria.
Thank you for joining us.
[chuckles]
Like you to give us much of a choice.
You always have choices.
You made a choice to be a pirate.
You made a choice to come to this island.
And you made a choice to stay with us.
The thing to remember is that
with our choices comes consequences.
I'd like to offer you the opportunity
to stay with us permanently.
And what would that entail?
Anne and Grace will
tell you on your journey.
Good luck.
I hope to see you soon.
[upbeat music]
This way, we have a long journey ahead.
[ANNE]
- Hurry!
You guys get visitors here often?
How long have you been here?
Longer than you can possibly imagine.
I don't know.
Got a pretty good imagination.
Do people find it funny?
They shouldn't.
What do you know of Lemuria?
I can't say we've heard of it.
I'm not surprised.
What about Kumari Kandam?
A lost continent?
Not lost.
But most of it was destroyed.
I thought that was in the Indian Ocean.
We did make many inroads
into the subcontinent in Africa.
We were always here.
Wait, what?
We spread too quickly.
We tried making allies
and training partners
with those that just
weren't ready for our gifts.
And then they decided to steal our riches.
Our merchants were captured, tortured.
They were forced to give our location.
Soon their armies arrived.
We were a peaceful nation,
but not without defenses.
So you repelled the armies?
[ANNE]
- In a manner of speaking.
Like with a... Credonia
pleaded with our Lord.
He interceded on our behalf.
Oh, God repelled armies.
Yes. [Laughs]
Enough.
He triggered a great
earthquake in the sea.
A tsunami 500 feet high
crushed into our land,
washed away the invaders
and most of our people.
Hundreds of thousands died.
Ten of us survived.
So you're saying you were there?
I was not.
Grace was.
And those of us who live
took shelter in the cave of Eacups.
So how long ago was this?
Use this track of time
after a few centuries,
but if I had to guess, I would say,
4,000, 5,000 years, give or take.
[KILGORE]
- You're messing with us.
She's messing with us.
Messing with you?
You're not joking? Hahaha!
We don't joke.
And this is where I must leave you.
What?
Out here in the middle of nowhere.
I must prepare the others.
Prepare the others for what?
You shall see.
This way.
What is this place?
This is the source of our power.
What power?
You've heard of the Fountain of Youth?
Of course, possibly
on search fort for years.
Well, he was looking in the wrong place.
This is the Fountain of Youth.
And the truth
was lost in the tales.
It is not a fountain.
Feel it.
Drink from it.
Then you may join us.
And if we don't?
Then you're on your own.
[ANNE]
- Good luck.
[mysterious music]
What the hell is she talking about?
Watch out for snakes.
I know, Dad.
Is that blood?
This place has given me the creeps.
What if this is actually the...
Fountain of Youth?
It's impossible.
Hmm.
Some would say.
It's just a myth.
We can't find any water nearby.
Maybe we have to use the cup and carry it?
Don't have time for that.
You got a better idea?
Where do you think that leads?
[blade pierces]
What the hell?
I had to fill the cauldron.
I thought you loved me.
I do.
Not as much as I love me.
[grunts]
[swords clanging]
[swords clanging]
Stay down, old man.
I told you to lay off the old master!
[swords clanging continues]
[flesh is pierced]
[breathing heavily]
[loud grunts in pain]
[grunts in pain]
It's okay, Dad.
Would it?
I know this is who you are.
Yeah, I am on it.
I forgive you.
Dad!
[somber music]
[grunts]
[gasping]
[cries in pain]
[breathes heavily]
[screaming]
I don't understand what
the Commodore sees in him.
He's the Commodore's attack dog.
It's time to get home.
Those shooters before we can get to him.
Perhaps.
Maybe we're in the
heart of that dumb good.
I can't lose any more men.
If you lose it, you lose it.
At least we go down fighting.
I got this, Captain.
I can take four of them.
We got this.
Keep quiet!
[MAGDALENA]
- And what exactly
is it that you think you've got?
Hold!
Who goes there?
[MAGDALENA]
- That depends on you.
What the hell do you mean by that?
[MAGDALENA]
- We could be your saviors,
[MAGDALENA] - or we could be your doom.
Time is now, Captain.
It's too risky.
It's now or never.
What is it you want?
To take you home.
Sounds like a trap.
[SHADRACH]
- Hello there.
We want to welcome you.
And invite you to a banquet.
We have warm beds,
but if you don't want...
Wait.
Yes?
A banquet?
I suppose there's no harm
in accepting your generous hospitality.
I don't think this is wise.
I agree with Thomas.
Thomas, if this were a medical matter,
I would take it under advisement.
But as it is, it is not.
That tears it, Bridger.
We are sick and tired of you
pushing everyone around
us like you own this place.
You can argue, but I don't
think it will end well for you.
Is that...
Is that a threat?
We don't take kindly to threats.
[EVELYN]
- And it appears
that your guests are
taking the opportunity...
[MAGDALENA]
- To a better their situation.
Please.
It's not far.
This way.
What are the plans?
I guess we follow.
[EVELYN]
- This plan.
I have a bad feeling about this.
Welcome to Lemuria.
Magdalena, I see you brought our guests.
Yes, Mistress.
You've done well.
Could you please go
prepare our cabin for them?
Of course.
Evelyn,
could you please get our
guests something cool to drink?
As you wish.
This is remarkable.
Yes, we have done well here.
I trust your journey
wasn't too distressing.
Of course it wasn't.
From what Kilgore says,
it was quite the battle.
Is it just Kilgore here?
I'm afraid so.
He was the only one to make it.
We were sense of scouts
to look for the others in the morning.
In the morning?
There's monsters out there.
Yes, there are.
But it would be unwise to go
searching blindly into the night.
[chuckles]
I'm sorry, where are my manners?
I am Credonia.
And these are my friends.
And this is Lemuria.
It's a pleasure.
Please,
eat, drink, enjoy.
What's ours is yours.
What should we do?
It would be rude to reject
such a fine display of hospitality.
Alvaro and I prepared this special feast
for you and Kilgore.
It is quite the occasion.
It is not often we have so many guests.
How did you know we were coming?
Kilgore told us.
They ran, gracious to the food.
On three.
One, two, three.
Not fair, wait.
Hey, wait for me.
Let's eat.
For once I agree with you.
Okay, gentlemen, this way.
We've gathered this all ourselves.
It's all very fresh.
Hmm, hungry.
Something doesn't feel right about this.
I agree.
Keep your eyes open.
I got a bad feeling about this.
[instrumental music]
There you go.
This will refresh you.
What is it?
It's elderberry wine.
Wow. You made this?
Yes, we did.
This is good.
It's an old family recipe.
Actually, this is really good.
I'm so glad that you like it.
Thank you.
Drink up.
Certainly.
Salud.
[mysterious music]
[door opens]
[mysterious music continues]
Guys, fuck.
Wake up, pirate.
I've got a name.
Oh, I'm sure you do.
But right now, I need answers.
And this couldn't wait a few more hours?
Where are O'Malley and Andreas Agrippa?
Who?
The Marines that carried your gear.
Last I saw, they were sleeping over there.
Well, they're missing.
Well, maybe they went piss.
Oh, enough of this.
Where are they?
We didn't do anything with them.
Oh, you are lying to me.
[SHAW]
- We're not lying.
I had to guess.
Looks like they were dragged out.
Maybe you should check outside.
Bridger.
What is it, sergeant?
First, either call me by
my rank or by my name.
Fine,
Thomas.
Isn't this place amazing?
It certainly is something.
Kilgore.
Where is Flora?
Um,
I'm not sure. We were separated.
And you're not worried about her?
Of course, she's my daughter.
Then we need to go find her.
But that's not a good idea.
Why not?
They took us to this cave.
Well, what cave?
They called it the Fountain of Youth.
[KILGORE]
- I really wasn't listening.
Did he just say Fountain of Youth?
[WILSON] - Bridger, what
the hell are you doing?
This may actually be our chance
to save this disaster of an excursion.
I don't know.
Hey, trust me.
So where is it?
Should we be moving this fast?
I don't know.
Pirates said it's several miles this way.
We should pace ourselves.
Might be alerting the things
spinning out of the night.
No, no. They're dead.
You don't know that, sir.
Quit your whining.
No, seriously. Those
things took a lot to kill.
If something's out here,
we'll lift them a mile away
with a way we're stomping
through the woods like this.
A slower pace allows for better awareness.
No, no, no.
Petty officer's right.
Let's approach with a little more caution.
Yeah, it's pretty strong.
[mysterious music]
Dear God,
what are you doing?
Is that O'Malley?
Oh, great.
I guess this speeds things up.
Can you take care of them?
[gruesome tearing sounds]
[wet chewing sounds]
With pleasure.
Oh, Alvaro,
don't play with your food.
Think what you're doing.
We have you outnumbered, friend.
Do you now?
Does that make you feel safe?
Secure?
It should make you feel wary.
And why is that?
You strike one of us down,
the men will come in here and kill you
before you can even say a word.
I see.
So let me make this easier on you.
What?
I'll let you swing first.
Swing first?
Come on.
I won't even block.
He's being serious?
Deadly.
[metal clinks]
Shoot him!
Bush, get out of the way.
I said don't play.
Come on.
Let me have some fun.
Fine.
Just don't take too long.
We now have three more
carcasses to carve for dinner.
[flesh is pierced]
[swords clash]
[grunts]
[swords clash]
How about you fight me?
[grunts]
Run, Jacob!
Norton.
[swords clanging]
Run, Jacob!
I'm sorry.
[swords clanging]
[grunts]
Come on.
Things are not what they seem.
We are food.
We have got to go.
You and you.
Guard the door.
Let's go.
It's time to go.
Kilgore.
I'm staying here.
Wait, what?
What do you mean you're staying here?
- Don't be crazy.
- This is my home.
This is my family now.
What did you do?
Kilgore.
Kilgore, what have you done?
You killed Flora, didn't you?
You did.
You killed your own daughter, you bastard.
She didn't want to stay.
She's your own girl!
- She was one of us.
- Shaw, I had no choice.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
I belong here now.
They've got in your head, man.
You all should run now.
Credonia will kill you.
[tense music builds]
They know?
What do we do?
We welcome them.
We can't accept that many.
It's not up to us.
Credonia will decide.
Then where is she?
Do you doubt her?
That would be a fatal mistake.
Credonia's will is final.
Have you forgotten your place?
I'm sorry.
Not yet.
But you will be.
She is here.
Perhaps you should pray.
Good luck.
We have shown these outsiders kindness.
We have shown them charity and mercy.
And what have they shown us?
Disrespect.
They try and take what is ours.
Right.
They spit on our manners.
They try to steal our secrets.
They try to take our power as their own.
No, they can't.
They are not alone.
Child,
I've been told I have
reason to doubt your loyalty.
Are you with us or against us?
I am with you
until my last breath.
Now I wish I could believe you.
I love you.
You did once.
Take her away.
Yes, my lady.
Are there any other doubters?
No, ma'am.
Then let's show them what power truly is.
We are the United States Navy!
We do not run!
We fight!
All right, men.
Deal with them.
Let's do this.
[gun fires]
[swords clanging]
[grunts]
[swords clanging continues]
All right.
Let's go get this bitch.
[swords clanging]
Shoot her!
I can't get a clear shot.
Shoot her!
[gun fires]
Oh, in God's name?
I've no idea.
God has nothing to do with it.
Run! Run!
No.
Hey!
[thuds]
Our weapon.
What?
Give us our weapons.
Absolutely not.
You need our help.
- Do it.
- Yes, sir.
[sword swings]
[grunts continues]
[breathes heavily]
[screaming]
All right.
Let's kill some cultists.
Leave the giant to me.
I'm sure you can handle this.
Child, I've been disposing
of scum worse than you,
since your grandmother was
a friend to your father's eye.
[foreign language]
[grunts]
[ANNE]
- You could have had this power.
This strength that even
our children possess.
[flesh is pierced]
[swords clanging]
[sword swings]
[grunts]
This could have been yours.
And now you're foes.
[grunts]
[metal clinks]
[flesh is pierced]
Surrender now and we will spare you.
Spare me?
You have no idea what it is that you face.
[swords clanging]
[grunts]
[flesh is pierced]
[flesh is pierced]
[metal clinks]
[grunts]
There don't have to be any more bloodshed.
- We can end this now.
- No! We can't.
You spit on our gifts.
Now you must pay.
Finish them!
As you wish.
I got you, boys!
Kilgore, what are you doing?
What I should have done a long time ago.
What does that mean?
Forgive me, sweetie.
[blasts]
[coughs]
Shaw, you all right?
I'm all right. You?
[sighing]
- I've been better.
- Can you walk?
Ah, hell, why not?
[grunts]
In case you were wondering,
I'm okay too.
Don't worry.
We weren't.
See if I help you again.
When does the help start?
If it wasn't for me,
you'd both be dead.
There's something moving in there.
Whatever it is,
I don't want to wait to find out.
It could be Kilgore.
Nah, for once, I think Brindger's right.
Let's go.
[mysterious music]
What the...
How?
I've been on this island for 175 years.
I know every inch of my island.
Just let us pass, mate.
We really don't want to have to harm you.
No one here needs to die.
It's a little too late for that.
[metal clinks]
Bastard.
[grunts]
Do you recognize it?
He put up quite the fight.
Surprising for someone so pampered.
He's a hero!
[grunts]
We've given you a chance.
You did.
You should have taken it.
We shall see.
[steel clashes]
[grunts]
[swords clanging]
[thuds continues]
[blade pierces]
[grunts]
[yells in pain]
[flesh is pierced]
Drake.
[breathes heavily]
A little over confident.
[flesh is pierced]
[gun fires]
[instrumental music]
[grunts continues]
Thank you.
You're welcome.
You're not used to being thanked.
[chuckles]
Not with any degree of sincerity.
Ah, fuck.
I'd leave that.
We should head to the beach.
Is that wise?
Well, then we have to guard one side.
Easy now.
We got this.
Wait.
Is that what I think it is?
[triumphant music]
I think so.
[victorious laughs]
We're saved.
We're saved!
[both laughs]
Get me off this fucking island!
Mr. Bridger,
do you believe that Tiberius Shaw
was the one who destroyed the USS Perry
and killed its crew?
Not Mr. Shaw.
No, sir.
What What are you talking about, sir?
I found Mr. Shaw's behavior
to be above reproach.
[BRIDGER] - Not only
was he not responsible
for the destruction of the USS Perry,
he was responsible for saving my life
and guaranteeing me free
passage back to civilization.
[BRIDGER]
- In fact, sir,
I would be so bold as to say.
That if were he a member
of the United States Navy,
I would recommend
him for a Medal of Valor.
Your Honor, I respectfully ask that
every word of this man's testimony
be struck from the record.
Overruled!
What?
Then...
I have no more questions, Your Honor.
Very well.
Your witness, Mr. Collins.
Thank you, Your Honor.
Lieutenant Commander Bridger,
do you still swear that
your testimony is true
and made without coercion
or made under duress?
Yes, sir, I do.
Your Honor, the defense rests.
There are times when a
magistrate's job is easy,
and there are times
when it is very difficult.
Today
is an easy day.
What has been despite
its facts by one side
has been refuted by the other.
Facts do not change.
But opinions...
An opinion is information
available at the time
of the formulation of that set opinion.
That information may,
or may not always be true and factual,
whether intended or not.
Thus,
it is the opinion of this court
that Tiberius Shaw
is innocent.
[crowd talking]
Your Honor!
[crowd talking]
innocent of the charges against him
and so ordered to be released at once.
Court is adjourned.
Okay, I am so sorry.
My hands are tied.
Your hands are tied?
This is a travesty.
Where are you going?
You are mine.
[crowd talking]
What are you gonna do without them?
I demanded this trial.
[inaudible]
- No!
- No!
This is a travesty.
I am so sorry.
Something something went wrong.
I will appeal.
That won't bring our son back.
I'm so sorry.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Ah.
My Lady.
Well done, William.
We shall take it from here.
Yes.
Until next time, my Lady.
So you're a free man?
Now what?
Thank you for your service.
You've been extremely
helpful to our cause.
We'll have to keep our eye on you.
My pleasure.
[instrumental music]
