Chapter 3: The Wide Eternal Sea

Previously on
Sex magry a crisos.\N What does that mean?
Maybe I'll tell you.
Stay away from Long John Silver.
Do you understand me?
Could I train your son
in the arts and practices of trade?
Protect us from Long John Silver.
Please, no more delays.
To protect you, I need to know the truth.
We are the people! This ship will be mine, Jim.
Great Britain rules the seas!
Long John?
Get everyone who isn't on watch and who trusts us to come.
Invite them to eat\Nand talk.
This ship isn't what it seems, lads.
Didn't I say so? They'll take us somewhere else.
Let's see what they have to say, shall we?
Something's wrong. We should have known where we were heading.
His mutiny has begun.
We've been here for five days,
sailing west under the Southern Cross\Non our way here:
Jamaica!
And now, judging by the sky above us,
we're heading south!
And where are we going?
I don't know, everyone.
But Widow Hawkins, with a copy
of Captain Flint's map in her hand, needs a ship and a crew
to bring the treasure back to England, doesn't she?
We all saw how she was courting Mr. Graham.
So, do we set a course for Captain Flint's treasure?
No, lads. We won't hint at any mutiny here.
We're running out of time.
Oh my God, Meg! You've made me a new man!
- A whole man.\N- Yes.
Our ship has been badly damaged.
We've lost a lot of provisions.
So we'll all have to share our food rations in half.
On top of that, our doctor has died.
So all of us will have to look after the sick and the wounded,
especially now that we're in a tropical climate
and disease is imminent.
That means we'll have to stay alert and awake.
He told them I have the map.
I suspect he'll seize the ship, which leaves us at his mercy.
He leaves me at his mercy.
We have to inform Mr. Graham.
And do we forget that we have the map?
He has the ship and the crew
He doesn't understand Captain Flint's language, or his way of thinking.
He knows we're tied to Silver.
And he asked me for the truth.
The truth will trap us. Mr. Graham is an honest man.
Honesty doesn't exist in this world, Jim.
But I think I can make the truth serve
my purpose,
and protect us.
Mother, Mr. Graham is a respected man in society
and you
Perhaps he would prefer
a lady of refinement?
They need me up on deck.
What am I to Long John Silver, and what is he to me?
You deserve the truth, Mr. Graham.
These events you have described so clearly, Mrs. Hawkins,
must have been exhausting for you.
Without a doubt, sir.
Then you can imagine my despair,
after I found a place aboard this ship
thanks to your kindness, and then I saw Long John Silver
Why? If he had seen you burning the map
Why would he have followed you all the way to my ship?
He thinks I made a copy.
So when you pushed him
He threatened my son's life, sir. I am a mother.
Of course.
Well, this cannot be allowed to stand, madam.
Captain Smollett must be informed.
No! Please, sir, please.
The truth is, at the last moment I discovered,
hidden among my belongings,
a copy of Captain Flint's map.
I believe the man I told you about is the one who put it there.
Billy Bones. He had romantic hopes of me.
I don't know why.
Mr. Graham, I am thrilled to have this map.
My whole body is trembling
Enough, enough, please
I'm afraid it will consume me entirely.
My dear Anne. Not six weeks have passed since her death, I
Forgive me, Mrs. Hawkins. I'd be grateful if you would leave.
Anne must have been dull.
Hello, hello. Jim, my boy.
We fought side by side.
We are bound by blood and battle.
Look, Mr. Silver, your new leg has improved your movement.
Although you tore
a piece of my skin that day.
I saved your life, Mr. Silver.
Why did you do that?
Because you saved my life. It was a fair exchange.
- Nothing more, nothing less.
- A fair exchange?
This must be a way to anchor your mind in the modern world,
as your mother wants.
What my mother wants for me
and what you want for yourself are two different things.
Sit here a while, Jim.
It seems to me that's your mother, and this is her plan, not yours.
You need to recruit a man who has a ship and a crew
to carry your treasure to England.
Mr. Graham
Yes, Jim, Mr. Graham.
That man,
if he gives in to one temptation, will find the doors of sin open to others.
So would he really be willing to cut
your throat and your mother's throat,
and carry the map in his pocket,
to keep the treasure for himself?
We're less than two weeks from Jamaica with fair winds.
Decisions have to be made.
Choices have to be made. For your sake, Jim, not your mother's.
And that, if I understand correctly, means seizing this ship
No, Jim! We won't mutiny.
What I'm saying is: here I am,
an old sailor in the autumn of his life, with modest needs,
who could live like a pig in the mud
on half of Captain Flint's money
if you help me, Jim.
I'll consider your proposal, Mr. Silver.
You want me to take the map
from Elizabeth Hawkins.
And after that?
Where have you been?
- I went for a walk.
- I didn't see you.
- Are you drinking rum?
- I'm getting my senses back, Mother.
I think Mr. Silver
could make a deal.
An agreement to share the treasure
No, Jim. An agreement means nothing to a man like him.
- So what will we do then, Mother?
- We'll do exactly what we were doing.
Jim, we're very close.
This ship is almost ours.
I told Graham
that the map is with us.
- Did you tell him where it is?
- No.
No, I only told him what he needs to know to help us.
Without asking me?
What if Mr. Graham isn't the honest fool you think he is?
I know how to handle any man, honest or not. As you know very well.
Get rid of this food.
Mr. Cameron! Traps, bait, and poison in the stores.
Spread the poison throughout the ship.
Everyone has to help.
We have to get rid of these pests
or we'll die of disease before we starve.
What are we going to do?
We have no food, and we're still two weeks from port.
How did this happen?
The rats multiplied once we lost the ship's cat.
Yes. Mr. Silver killed it.
Captain! I solemnly swear to feed every one of you
until we reach port. Whatever port that is.
And I swear to you, that's what I'll do.
It's not pretty,
but that wounded marine won't be alive by sunset.
No! Mr. Silver, we won't eat a man
I'm not saying we eat him, but we use him as the bait.
Captain, please, in the name of these good men,
order a strong crane built,
and ask the boatswain for a net the size of a cricket field,
and when you've chosen your best throwers,
I'll hoist the marine's body up.
Lift, lift, lift!
Come on!
Hey, hey, hey!
Get away!
There! It's coming, lads!
It's huge!
Easy, lads! Take it slow with the crane.
- Lift!
- Lift!
- Lift! Lift!
- Lift!
Lift! Lift!
Lift up, lads! Lift!
- Heave!
- Heave!
Fire away, sir.
Sir Ara! Bring him here!
Come on, men!
Come on! That's it!
Looks like we're lucky
with this huge haul.
We'll eat till we reach port!
I know you're angry,
but if he hadn't let go of you,
we'd be dead.
He saved my life.
Only because he thinks you know
where the map is.
Step away from him. Do you understand?
Hello.
Long John Silver killed the cat.
Rats are eating our provisions,
then saved us with a big supply
of shark meat.
Let the sailors rejoice,
since he claims I have
a copy of the map.
And now he's getting ready to seize this ship. Your ship.
We need to decide
our next move.
We?
I thought we had an agreement.
Yes, I've been thinking,
Ms. Hawkins,
since our last meeting,
that perhaps, since you have
this cursed map,
deepening our
"agreement" would be
Well, it would be advisable.
Aron, this cursed map. Maybe
I should burn it. Again.
- Maybe that would be best.
- It'll only create problems between us.
Still, do you want
Jim to become a gentleman?
I do, I want it.
I want it badly.
It's very complicated.
Complicated how?
Well,
the map needs to be decoded.
Decoded?
Well, maybe I can help
if you take a look at it.
Aron, my fear of Long John
Silver is overwhelming
I'd prefer the map
remain hidden
until he's thrown into prison,
and the ship and crew are placed under the court's control.
And then, my dear,
I'll reveal everything to you.
Yes, eternal Lord
We thank You for keeping us
safe from the violence of the enemy
and for the safety You grant us
here at sea,
until we return in peace
to the blessings of land.
Let us praise
and glorify Your holy name.
Amen.
Keep the sails taut and hold fast to the wind, gentlemen! Dismissed!
Dismissed!
Captain,
forgive my boldness,
but we men below
find it very strange
that we are no longer heading
to Jamaica.
The crew ought to know
where we're going to dock.
Gentlemen, I've decided to sell the cargo
we have on board
in the island of Santo Domingo.
This island is the most fertile market
for the luxury goods
I deal in.
It's a venture that will bring in very good profit,
and each of us here
will receive a share of it.
The matter stands. Dismissed!
Captain Smollett. Santo Domingo
lies in French waters, and,
as I understand from the disputes
and intrigues between nations,
it is an area where raising
the British flag
will land us all in a French cell.
Rest assured, Mr. Silver.
I have a preferential agreement
with the port authorities of
Santo Domingo.
- A preferential agreement?
- Yes.
What? Trade with the French?
Why does Mr. Graham consider this ship
and everyone aboard her
nothing but smugglers?
- He's inciting mutiny!
- This is not mutiny!
Captain, British trade
and navigation laws stipulate
that when the passenger list is signed,
It will be legally binding
as to its destination.
So I affirm that these
young men have the legal right
to demand that Jamaica be
their port of disembarkation.
Otherwise, you would be breaking this law,
and may be brought
before the Admiralty Court
once we reach our port of departure.
Our situation is extremely precarious,
more than I dare admit.
It would be foolish to stir up discontent among the men
while we struggle to survive.
And Mr. Silver is right.
We're heading for Santo Domingo.
While I handle the business,
you, Captain Smollett,
will see to repairing and provisioning the ship.
And after that, gentlemen,
I'll leave you in Jamaica
rich men.
We'll consider your offer.
What is it, Mother? Why is
Mr. Graham taking us
I don't know. He didn't tell me.
Who is he?
I don't know. What did you do, Mother?
I don't know. I don't know.
- He said he'd protect me.
- I'm trying.
That damned map
that Long John Silver wants
and everyone on the ship
It's in my head, and you
put it in my head.
You put it in your own head.
Yes. I am.
And I will succeed.
Do you see those waves
rising and falling?
That's a man's life. A small wave
in the vast expanse.
What kind of wave are you,
Jim Hawkins?
A towering wave that
strikes fear into others' hearts
or one that brings them hope?
Or a small wave
that no one will ever see?
- I don't know.
- And Mr. Graham? What kind of wave is he?
He has shown us
nothing but kindness.
He allowed us
to travel on this ship.
And he asked of us
only what we could afford to pay.
I looked through his things
when he was upstairs.
Dated four days
before we sailed.
To Lord Admiral Edward Gray.
From the heir Livesey
of Crackington.
In it, his cousin the admiral is told
that you and your mother
have a copy of Captain Flint's map, and that you're headed to Bristol.
He has been deceiving you the whole time.
I'm giving you this letter
as a friend.
I'll kill him. Wait, Jim.
It's better to bend with the wind
than to break in the storm.
If I were you, I would have killed him.
Yes. I would have killed him.
But you're innocent until you kill.
Sit here. Look at the ocean
and think before you act, Jim.
Anything you want to know,
I'll answer.
- His dead wife. Anne.
- A lie.
- You want the map.
- Only if he comes with you.
- You used me.
- And you tried to use me.
- You were sly and evasive.
- Just like you.
- Deceitful.
- Just like you.
It's not the same. It is not the same.
You're a man.
And in this world of trade
and business
You have everything to play with.
But not because of me. I'm all I've got to play with.
- Yes.
- And you stole that from me.
You're right. It's not the same.
I'm sorry, Pess.
I think that
Well, I love you.
I have the map. And you have the ship and the crew.
A fair split.
I'm representing the British Crown.
I'll take 20% of the prize money,
and I'll share it with you.
- Ten percent of 700,000
- Seventy thousand. Yes, I know how to count.
That's enough to make Jim a gentleman.
- Agreed.
- Agreed.
- But only when you are
- Yes,
I'll come to you as soon as I'm sure
that we're armed against Silver and the mutineers.
Eight knocks on your cabin door. Before that if possible. Here.
Cognac.
A gift for the service you've given the country.
I'll tell you everything. Who I was and who I am now.
Don't let me down.
Don't you have enough problems already
that you have to spy at my door, Mr. Silver?
Or do you have something
you want to talk to me about?
- I'll let your son speak.
- Stay away from my son.
But will he stay away from me?
Because no one knows
where he's taking him.
To Captain Flint's treasure.
Stolen from you
from innocent people,
and that doesn't make it rightfully yours.
- Nor certainly yours.
- Right.
But here we are. For 40 days
in this vast, deep sea.
Forty days and forty nights.
And soon we'll reach port, and your
goals will remain ink on paper.
And what about your own goals?
To deceive Mr. Graham
while he was deceiving you all along.
Mr. Graham and me? We're fools for each other.
But you your mother was happy
not knowing him.
Dawn has broken, Captain.
- Turn the hourglass. Strike the bell twelve times.
Mother?
Mother! Wake up! Mother, please
Mrs. Hawkins is dead.
Since I'm the only one aboard
with medical knowledge
I've been tasked with determining,
if possible,
the cause of your mother's death.
I'm very sorry.
Go up on deck.
Mr. Graham ordered me
to lock this cabin.
Now, Mr. Hawkins.
Jim I'm so sorry.
Mrs. Hawkins is dead.
Her room has been tampered with.
Mr. Silver, last night
I saw you arguing
with Mrs. Hawkins, didn't I? Do you deny it?
I don't deny the argument.
But I didn't kill the widow.
Lieutenant? Do you have the cause of death
for Mrs. Hawkins?
I do, Captain. Arsenic.
Mr. Silver killed
the ship's cat
The rats multiplied
and consumed our provisions.
I distributed the arsenic
to control the rats.
Which puts the means of death
in your hands, Mr. Silver.
And in the hands of anyone here,
including the noble Mr. Graham.
Who had a relationship with her.
Last night,
I was heading to my mother
when Mr. Silver advised me
to wait.
He told me to stay here and think.
But he went down there.
I want you to hang him, Captain.
Lieutenant,
put Mr. Silver under guard.
And prepare a gallows
for his execution.
I didn't kill the widow.
I'll order a search
of Mr. Silver's cabin.
Mrs. Hawkins her cabin was turned upside down.
Jim's personal belongings
must be returned to him.
You won't find what you're looking for.
In the midst of life, we are in death.
Yet, O holy Lord God,
hear our prayer with mercy,
and do not let
the pains of death separate us from you in our last hour.
- Amen.
- Amen.
Mr. Hawkins, while your beloved mother
rests in her grave,
I advise you to read
the Book of Common Prayer.
By doing so,
it will give you comfort.
Mr. Hawkins
Merciful God, Father
of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who is the resurrection and the life,
whoever believes in him shall live, though he die,
and whoever lives and believes in him
shall never die. So that when we depart
from this life,
we may rest in him,
and that, at the general resurrection
on the last day,
we may be found acceptable
in your sight
and receive that blessing
which your beloved Son will pronounce
to all who love and fear you, saying
- The map is here
- It's in his head?
Come,
you blessed of my Father,
inherit the kingdom
prepared for you
from the foundation of the world,
through Jesus Christ.
- Amen!
- Amen.
Amen.
I see it! Land on the horizon!
