It's such an underhanded thing but such an ingenius solution. Something you'd only do for someone you truly couldn't coutenance killing. For then John Silver couldn't have lived with himself either. People seem to balk at this compromise. It's the most human ending I could've imagined. Very well thought out.

What I love about this series is it basically combines the lore of Treasure Island with real world history. Nassau (Bahamas) was a pirate base, which was ultimately conquered by the British Royal Navy. In the novel, Captain Flint was described as a somewhat mysterious character, with no motives beyond a love for treasure. Long John Silver's motive was claiming Flint's treasure, until he grew a liking to Jim Hawkins. Here, Captain Flint is some kind of revolutionary who dreams of a free world for all downtrodden, be they pirates, fugitives, or slaves. John Silver however is a realist. He knows this is a war they can't win, so he tells Flint what he always wanted to hear: That his true love was waiting for him.

The genius of the writing in this show is that no one character is ever objectively right. As with all true ethical dilemmas, the choice is not right from wrong, it’s wrong from wrong. Notice how neither character gains the upper hand conversationally. They are both right. Most scenes of this nature involve one character preaching to the other in order to eventually win them over. But in BS, both Flint and Silver know that the other isn’t going to budge. They also know that each of them makes sense. It’s just a matter of perspective and ambitions, not right or wrong. It’s brilliantly scripted. Although I’m very thankful they ended it after 4 seasons (since most shows overstay their welcome and drag on until they suck) I would still watch another 30 seasons of this show. A rare gem that is CRIMINALLY underrated.

The VERY ROOT of TRAGEDY in this dialogue - from my point of view - lies in the simple fact, that NONE of These two men is RIGHT with his opinion. Both men reached "the point of no return", and they KNOW it!! In other words: BOTH men are RIGHT or NONE of them. What Impressed me the most, is the BRUTAL TRUTH and timeless ACTUALITY (!) of the messages, burried underneath the Dialogue ("NWO-Agenda"!!). The TRUTH hurts. This dialogue is really "out of time and space"... @ 07:55 - - > "... Distorted to FIT into their Narrative... Until all that is left of us are the MONSTERS...". -- > The ROOT CAUSE of ALL Problems.

God dammit. Flints character is so f*cking great. A perfect example of a gay character that nobody had any problems with because it was so very secondary to who he was. I truly wish this cast and crew would get together to do Treasure Island.

Yes and no. Flints character would've been a true Pirate regardless of who he loved. He was driven by an insatiable desire to be free at all costs of the persecution and tyranny of the worlds governments at the time. He was the consummate rebel against the corrupt elite of the East India company and the over ambitious crown who would subjugate everyone. My argument was that who he loved made no difference to the character at all. Either way, he was a badass and it was handled in a way that didn't feel preachy or agenda driven. Anyone who feels that the character is somehow lessened or feminized by his being gay really needs to look into the actual history of Piracy. Black Bart Roberts was arguably the second most successful Pirate in history just behind Henry Every and he was gay. Drank only tea and had a boyfriend/lover on board the Royal fortune that the men all mockingly called "Miss Nancy"... never to his face mind you, as he had a nasty habit of lopping peoples hands off for fun. Despite being married as many as 14 times, Blackbeard had a cabin boy of whom he was "overly fond" and most young men who jumped naval ships to sign on with pirate crews did so do to "hard usage" (r*pe) from the officers onboard the navy vessels. This is all well documented in trial transcripts from the time. The history of the age of sail is filled with homosexual relationships (look up the Tortuga Buccaneer tradition of Matelotage, though not always sexual, it sometimes was). Pirate ships were basically floating prison colonies, things happened and no one seemed to care much. Christ, to join some Chinese pirate crews you often had to be "used" by every man aboard before they accepted you. Flint was who he was and made no apologies. Great character.@@mlamferreira
