• Captain Anne Providence : You've heard the charges, mister. Have you anything further to say for yourself?

  Captain Pierre François LaRochelle : Only this - since we sailed from Nassau, I've served you loyally and well. As I will serve you well, in adventures we have planned for the future - together. I ask only to be judged by what I have done, not what he says I've done. You're my captain. I put my fate in your hands, without fear. With confidence in your justice.

  Captain Anne Providence : Put away your blade, I believe him innocent.

  Captain Edward Teach aka Blackbeard : Lass, he's turned your head with his smooth tongue.

  Captain Anne Providence : Put away, I say! I'm captain here!

  Captain Edward Teach aka Blackbeard : You're captain because I made you captain. I was a fool to think a wench could be other than a wench. But what I've made, I can blast. You've given your judgement, now witness mine.

• Captain Edward Teach aka Blackbeard : Remember, Lieutenant? Remember Martinique? Where you Frenchies hanged Sam Austin from a yardarm? You didn't know I was there, did you? But I saw you!
