[LEFT] XVIII. (2.10) — In Charles Town, the day of Captain Flint's trial comes. Lord Ashe offers him a chance to avoid humiliation, but Flint declines, still bitter at Ashe for Mrs. Barlow's death. However, help for Flint arrives in the unlikeliest form: Charles Vane. Vane's men launch their attack on the city, and Flint and Vane fight their way out, with Flint murdering Ashe en route. They reach the ship to find Flint's crew have regained leadership, but Flint orders Vane's crew be released - realizing pirates have to unite against the rest of the world. Silver, after being tortured, is forced to have his leg amputated. When he finally awakens, he reveals that the spy they hired to watch the Spanish soldiers sold the location to Jack, but he leaves out his own part in the exchange. The ending scene shows Max celebrating Jack's success at bringing the treasure back to Nassau.
[RIGHT] XXXVII. (4.09) — Flint and Silver's crew follow Rogers' ship to Skeleton Island. On Skeleton Island, Flint and Dooley set off to hide the treasure, while Silver sends 6 men after them. A flashback is intermittent where Flint teaches Silver how to sword-fight. Rogers tries to convince Madi to accept his treaty. Jack and his crew also set sail for Skeleton Island. Flint and Silver's ship catches fire.
Single-elimination tournament to determine the best comic relief character in Star Wars (aka if they lose in round 1, they're out - only the winners continue on!)
The movies are great because the idea that Lelouch and C.C. decided after all that to fuck off somewhere and pretend to be cool sexy vampires is the single funniest writing decision I have ever seen and it is truly the best possible ending for them.

[LEFT] XIII. (2.05) — Flint begins the bombardment of Vane's fort in earnest. After destroying a portion of the wall, Flint and Hornigold stage their crews on the beach, arming them to retake the fort. During the bombardment, it is shown through a series of flashbacks that not only had Flint wholly committed himself to Hamilton's plan to retake Nassau and pardon the pirates, but had also begun an affair with him. While seeking support from his commander, Flint is confronted by him and Lord Hamilton, who strip Flint of his rank and expel him from the Royal Navy. They give Flint and Ms. Hamilton until nightfall to flee London while committing Mr. Hamilton to a mental hospital. In the present, Ms. Hamilton, now Ms. Barlow, rides into town to try to avert the bloodshed of the coming battle. She finally gets Flint alone and tells him of Abigail Ashe, the daughter of a once-trusted friend. She says they should trade her for safety in the Colonies, thus finally making possible Mr. Hamilton's plan. She leaves Flint a copy of "Marcus Aurelius," which has a dedication to Flint by Mr. Hamilton. After she departs, Vane bursts into the room with a dagger.
[RIGHT] XXXVIII. (4.10) — Jack and his crew arrive at Skeleton Island and attempt to rescue any survivors in the aftermath of Rogers' ambush of Flint and Silver's crew. Jack, Flint, and Silver sail behind Rogers and the Eurydice to engage them in one final battle. The Eurydice has been seized and Flint and Silver go back to Skeleton Island to retrieve the treasure. Jack returns to Philadelphia to talk to Marion Guthrie about her buying out Rogers' debts. Flint chooses to go to Savannah. Order, at least on the surface, is restored in Nassau.
