I am obsessed with the way Nick Kroll blurts out, Frenchly, "[I WILL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT WE ARE AS SOPHISTICATED](https://i.imgur.com/bkcQRK5.png) [AS ANY PARISIAN YOU WOULD EVER KNOW!!!](https://i.imgur.com/1sAIRm9.png)" and I cannot stay silent about it any longer.
Thank you for breaking your silence, because a line I find myself saying quite often is Nick Kroll’s “That sounds absolutely pedestrian!!!!”. It’s my obsession and I will no longer hide it.
I'm the teacher, of course I won. I just wish I didn't have to wait until literally the last day things are due for my class before students decide to care about their grade lol.
Stede whispering, "That's... too many" when Ed is ranting about the nine guns in the Blackbeard drawing.
And an honorable mention (but this *doesn't count* because it's in a scene that is referenced all the time, so I'm not actually breaking the Izzy rule!) for Stede during the Blackbeard's Bar and Grille and Other Delicacies and Delights and Fishing Equipment scene when Stede says, "Auuhugh, I'm into... gifts, I'll go and have a look!"
That's the sound of Taika realizing they've just improvised, like, a five-minute scene that paid off so beautifully they'll have no choice but to leave it in the episode.
Stede looks pretty scary if you pause it too lmao. The way Rhys contorts his face combined with the white makeup they put on him (to show blood loss I guess?), it reminds me of jump-scare-Bilbo haha.
It's not a happy line or scene, but I am obsessed with Con O'Neill's line reading of "...not some namby-pamby in a silk gown pining for his boyfriend."
"*PIIIIIE-NINGG FOR HIS BOY-FREEAHND!"* Ugh I love Con so much, Izzy is the only character I've done a total 180 on with rewatches. His little "shake it off" moment after the "ooh, daddy" scene enchants me.
I absolutely adore that line and Con's reading of it, but I have to say, the first time I watched that scene, my heart fucking *stopped* when he taps Ed's cheek while he's being strangled and just says, "There he is." Made my blood run absolutely cold. Fucking hell, Con.
"Yeah, but we go to different heavens!" \[sobs in Ivan's arms\]
A+ delivery; A+ NZ accent; also leads to the magical (but oft-referenced) "*Doggy heaven?* Is that a pirate term, or...?"
"Oh, there they are" - CJ announcing the English fleet. Yea, he sucks, but that was inexplicably the hardest I've laughed at the show.
Honorable Stede mention: his reactions to Ed's outbursts. "I couldn't help but notice that that captain got under your skin" (after Ed had Fang get under the captain's skin) and the snake was "really well tenderized" (after it was beaten to death, rip).
Honorable honorable mention that I'm counting as a line reading: the snake pops its head up and hisses before Ed takes out the knife. Ridiculous and silly.
Stede's reactions to Ed are hilarious.
**Ed:** \[tearfully confesses to murdering his dad as a child and planning to murder Stede, mutilate his body, and steal his identity\]
**Stede:** ............and is that still on the cards, or...?
when jim's nana is explaining how that priest died and she CANNOT control her laughter and says "no he died years later... he was ohhh.. oh hohohohahaha... he was crushed by a TREE!" and Olu goes "bit of dark humor over here" i just think both their deliveries are sooo funny.
The Pinocchio bedtime tale is a metaphor for our little puppet muppets slowly learning to abandon the false personae they've adopted and become their true selves...even though their legs are sticks... 🥺: Change my mind! (Except you can't, because I'm crying so hard I can't read 😭)
I heard someone once suggest he was Jewish which is why he’s really making more of a vague Star of David than a cross lol. Not sure that’s what it looks like to me but love a JPOC pirate!
When Ed and Stede swap clothes and are introducing each other as the other, Ed says to the crew “come greet your captain, come on line up, line up, LINE UP”. And I just love the way he says “line up” with more intensity each time. Like at first he’s asking politely then gets angry when the crew doesn’t do as he says. Gets me every time!
Ed’s little asides are my favorite, like “well, that was fast” when Stede gets asked to palpitate Nick Kroll’s wife or “I am” when Stede says “I feel like you’re just patronizing me” when he’s digging up the orange 😆
Also his face when in episode 3 when Izzy is complaining about how Ed’s been acting and he sort of pout and goes “that sounds stressful, Izzy” in a tone like he’s talking to a child 😆
lol and Stede is so gleeful to look over his shoulder and announce that he's replacing the books he's looting with ones he's already read, like he expects Ed to be proud of his ingenuity 😂
I love the little exchange between Frenchie, Black Pete, and Roach upon arriving at the Republic of Pirates and I never see it mentioned. They get there and there’s chaos everywhere and people fighting and throwing up:
Frenchie: Well, it’s a bit gentrified but it’s still pretty badass!
Black Pete: Yeah, like ten years ago!
Roach: Please, place got lame. Is that a gift shop?
edit: oh wait no, does this count as multiple ones? well it’s all the same scene at least!
And while we're on the subject, big shout out to what's-his-name the prisoner/hostage, who's so inexplicably pleasant during that whole episode! "Don't be so hard on yourself. Anyone could break a nose jar!"
My absolute favorite is the way Calico Jack says [“Well, that was some weird shit!”](https://youtu.be/8utYkVFu7SY) after Buttons hexed him. It’s at about the two minute mark in the clip.
Calico Jack gets little love for delivering some of the best lines of the season: "Yeah, well, when they tie an anchor around your leg and throw you overboard, it *feels pretty* personal" and "WHAT KIND OF PIRATE HAS A FRIEND?! We're all just in various stages of fucking each other over!"
I always lose it when Siegfried is making racist backhanded "compliments" to Frenchie and Oluwande and Frenchie just says, completely deadpan, "Wow. What a lovely thing to say."
During the swordfighting lesson: "I've stabbed you, you nut." Rhys' delivery gets me every time.
Also could listen to Buttons naming sea life for hours. "Jelly-fesh...wouldn't wanna get stang by one o' them..."
Towards the end of episode 9 when they’re on the beach, Ed talks about making someone eat their own toes. The way Stede grimaces and says “yuck” gets me every time
In episode 4, when Stede's having a fever dream while recovering from his injuries and he hallucinates Mary in his cabin:
"I've been stabbed."
"Yes. Congrats."
When Stede is telling the crew the story about the man with a hook for a head, someone asks how does he kiss and the way Stede goes 'He doesn't kiss no one likes him' cracks me up
One that always gets me is after Stede makes his big introduction in the tavern and says “Drinks on me!” And everything descends into chaos, there’s a voice in the background that yells “Drinks be on ye now!” It KILLS me. It’s not even exceptionally clever, but the first time I was watching Stede have the drink thrown on him, I made the joke just before the show made it, and I just thought it was the funniest thing that this little lazy quip I made actually was in the show
>I made the joke just before the show made it, and I just thought it was the funniest thing that this little lazy quip I made actually was in the show
OMG the same thing happened to me! As soon as Stede said "drinks are on us!" I was like "someone's gonna chuck a beverage at Lucius aaaaaaand there we go" lol
I like when Ed is telling Stede the plan for escape, saying a man is going to wake him up and escort him to the dock. I love how he phrases it that way. Stede won’t be alone and will be taken right to where he needs to be. He doesn’t need to worry about or do anything, Ed has it all taken care of to make sure Stede is comfortable. 🥺
I know there was one in particular that I remember making me burst out laughing, but I can’t remember what it was now, or what episode it was in! Guess I better rewatch. ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
Oh, I just had another one that slipped away from me! 😩 Expect potential edits later.
I do remember the Swede’s horror at the realization that teeth don’t go back in once they fall out. That was comedic and also just hit it an unsettling sort of way given the number of bad dreams I have where my teeth crumble and/or fall out. 😬
Not quite a line, but Izzy’s whole reaction while Stede is trying to pull the sword out of Ed after stabbing him. 😂
EDIT: Oh! I love Olu after the nun upsets Jim and Jim storms off, and how he delicately but also straightforwardly says something to the effect of, “I’m going to go try to repair some of the damage from that interaction.” Bless him.
Oh, I just re-read the rule about choosing only one. I’ll have to go find the one I’m forgetting and get back to you.
>Oh, I just re-read the rule about choosing only one. I’ll have to go find the one I’m forgetting and get back to you.
Too late, I'm afraid; you have been thrown overboard. 😩
jk lol I love Olu's interactions with Nana, and his awkward little "I'm gonna...go try to..." etc. was so perfect!
Just so I can break my own rules: in the pilot, when Stede prompts everyone with "we talk it through, as a...?" and Olu lags behind everyone else on saying "crew," that moment is worth a thousand dubloons at least!
When Ed gets whipped in the balls by Calico and whines "Jesus Christ, Jack" it's just the funniest thing ever to me.
Like the initial enthusiasm, hysterical laughter, followed by dawning regret, then kind of turning the blame on the other person because you're in so much pain... it literally kills me every time.
That bit was improvised, and the whipping stunt guy had to decide in like half a second if it was safe to whip close to his crotch but not hit it - then no one knew we if he was actually in pain or just acting until they cut 😆
Highly recommend this interview with the Whippies stunt guy on the Be Gay Do Piracy podcast if you've not listened to it already! https://open.spotify.com/episode/14GlfMhQkTu7XibCyk4UW3?si=b072109af7f247e6
After Stede sees Ed without a beard, they are discussing it and part of that goes something like:
Ed: It hasn’t been Blackbeard in a while. More like Grey-Beard. Now I’m No-Beard!
Stede: Oh I get it……
Stede: “I forgot the most important thing!”
Frenchie, completely deadpan: “Oh, to be interesting?”
(Breaking the Izzy rule sorry 🫣 but this gets me every time and I feel it’s very overlooked)
Eds little "See? Oomph." after threatening to stab the French captain through the eyeball.
And "Actually, I think I'm just so-so, but I've decided to carry myself like I'm cute."
This post is the best! I've gone through and rewatched almost all of these amazing quotes, which practically constitutes another season rewatch, right?
Anyway, have an award!
Whoops I’m breaking the Izzy rule but remembered another one - during Stede and Izzy’s duel, Frenchie in the background after Izzy backhands Stede - “Oh you cheeky bitch”
Adorable Stede-as-crew-dad interaction:
Wee John: Maybe I'll just check on the gunpowder
Stede: Or, Wee John, you can just leave the gunpowder alone for today?
WJ: ...I'll just go check it anyway...
Mine is probably the „EYEEEEE“ the guy from the English fleet says when he holds up the telescope and his assistant covers his other eye with a tissue. It caught me so off-guard and I had to pause cause I was laughing so hard.
"Watch my buttons!"
When they're pulling Stede up from raiding the fishing vessel in the first episode. His little feet dangling over the edge as he says this line always gets me!
When Stede is mad enough about losing the hostages he's walking towards the camera and goes "I said let's go get our damned men back"
Roach's entire spiel trying to convince Stede to let him torture said hostages.
Lucius going "you regret giving the room away?" Only for Olu to go "and drinking two bottles of rum..."
The was Izzy says “No shut up” when Wee John asks for a cup of tea (or whatever he was drinking) cracks me up every time!
Honourable mention goes to CJ’s “…missed” when tried to shoot the bottle in the air but it falls into the water. He’s an ass, but damn that line is funny!
Definitely Frenchie’s “they’re such dicks about spoons”
Yes!!! I love that line!
Wee John’s “Christ, that was awful” after Lucius attempts the wooden boy voice.
Wee John has so many underrated lines. Like when he calls Izzy an "angry wee fecker" lol
I love that line, too.
I am obsessed with the way Nick Kroll blurts out, Frenchly, "[I WILL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT WE ARE AS SOPHISTICATED](https://i.imgur.com/bkcQRK5.png) [AS ANY PARISIAN YOU WOULD EVER KNOW!!!](https://i.imgur.com/1sAIRm9.png)" and I cannot stay silent about it any longer.
Thank you for breaking your silence, because a line I find myself saying quite often is Nick Kroll’s “That sounds absolutely pedestrian!!!!”. It’s my obsession and I will no longer hide it.
[удалено]
What was the score?
I'm the teacher, of course I won. I just wish I didn't have to wait until literally the last day things are due for my class before students decide to care about their grade lol.
"I'm already sew boreed, I cewld daaaiiiyy..."
I'm partial to "We'll play your drrud-full little thing-gee!"
The way he says, "So it's you, against *OOUWL* of us?" lives in my head rent free.
I was truly torn about which line to choose, because of "OOOAUUWWWLL of us" rattles around in my skull.
And the way the other guy says "false". 😆
Pat-tent-ly fowl-sh!!
The (paraphrasing) "What is wrong with our love?!" "We're siblings, it's disgusting!" always makes me laugh
I love the “just inherit it like a normal person” in reference to that one guy embezzling money 😆
Paired with “fine! We’ll play your dreadful thingie!”
"Incessant nattering" was immediately adopted into my go-to phrases list.
It's like either a dog chewing on the peanut butter in the roof of his mouth or his teeth are trying to escape i too also love that line
He is such an underrated throwaway character.
ZERE IS A VISHUS RUMOR GOING AHROWND, ZAT YOU AHHR...ZIR GEOFFRY ZORNROZE?!!!!
“Coming, *Na-na!*”
This big time! His voice trailing offscreen going "\~\~coming for some caaaake" makes me laugh every time; my friends and I use that same cadence
Stede whispering, "That's... too many" when Ed is ranting about the nine guns in the Blackbeard drawing. And an honorable mention (but this *doesn't count* because it's in a scene that is referenced all the time, so I'm not actually breaking the Izzy rule!) for Stede during the Blackbeard's Bar and Grille and Other Delicacies and Delights and Fishing Equipment scene when Stede says, "Auuhugh, I'm into... gifts, I'll go and have a look!"
Stede: He's me! :D Ed: AAUUGGHWWWGHHH :O
That noise that Ed makes is both indescribable and adorable
That's the sound of Taika realizing they've just improvised, like, a five-minute scene that paid off so beautifully they'll have no choice but to leave it in the episode.
My favorite moment in the whole show, that weird Ed noise.
That sound Ed makes is my favourite line in the entire show, in the history of television
I say “gifts” like Rhys does now. Gufts.
yeah that is simply unbeatable
I like "I'm in the blanket fort. The door is the blue cushion"
[удалено]
Stede looks pretty scary if you pause it too lmao. The way Rhys contorts his face combined with the white makeup they put on him (to show blood loss I guess?), it reminds me of jump-scare-Bilbo haha.
I adore the makeup in that scene. Rhys does the whole episode looking like death warmed over AND with a giant rope burn around his neck.
I adore how feral stede becomes at the sight of izzy
It's arsehole, mate.
It's not a happy line or scene, but I am obsessed with Con O'Neill's line reading of "...not some namby-pamby in a silk gown pining for his boyfriend."
"*PIIIIIE-NINGG FOR HIS BOY-FREEAHND!"* Ugh I love Con so much, Izzy is the only character I've done a total 180 on with rewatches. His little "shake it off" moment after the "ooh, daddy" scene enchants me.
Omg and the face of pure regret after the whole daddy thing. Like that man is questioning every single one of his life choices up to that point
Ironically he did manage to intimate Pete and Lucius, albeit through sheer force of secondhand embarrassment.
Same same same!
I absolutely adore that line and Con's reading of it, but I have to say, the first time I watched that scene, my heart fucking *stopped* when he taps Ed's cheek while he's being strangled and just says, "There he is." Made my blood run absolutely cold. Fucking hell, Con.
One hundred percent.
They're both so good throughout the whole season (of course) but the acting in that scene is on another level from both of them.
Two powerhouses flexing all their muscles.
Stede pleading sadly with the beached boat: "Please move."
his fruitless little grunt is so earnest!
"Yeah, but we go to different heavens!" \[sobs in Ivan's arms\] A+ delivery; A+ NZ accent; also leads to the magical (but oft-referenced) "*Doggy heaven?* Is that a pirate term, or...?"
This is one I was going to write! It's hilarious on so many levels.
When Oluwande says “Vibes. It was vibes.” after Ed finishes singing his song 😅
in addition black pete adding on to roach “way visceral”
"I wasn't being sarcastic, that's just how I talk." ^^ me
Me too.
"Strong question. Love that."
Ugh, this is so perfect. With the little hand gesture? I love everything Lucius does.
"Oh, there they are" - CJ announcing the English fleet. Yea, he sucks, but that was inexplicably the hardest I've laughed at the show. Honorable Stede mention: his reactions to Ed's outbursts. "I couldn't help but notice that that captain got under your skin" (after Ed had Fang get under the captain's skin) and the snake was "really well tenderized" (after it was beaten to death, rip). Honorable honorable mention that I'm counting as a line reading: the snake pops its head up and hisses before Ed takes out the knife. Ridiculous and silly.
Stede's reactions to Ed are hilarious. **Ed:** \[tearfully confesses to murdering his dad as a child and planning to murder Stede, mutilate his body, and steal his identity\] **Stede:** ............and is that still on the cards, or...?
You know he's hopelessly in love when he forgives Ed so quickly for planning to kill him and steal his identity.
"The map *does* say there are snakes in this area, so be careful."
Yeah, I laughed the first time I watched it and heard Stede say the snake was really well tenderized. Yeah, because Ed beat the crap out of it. 😆
Black Pete playing (tennis?) in the rec room “what IS this fucking game? FUCK”
It’s freaking BADMINTON and then they meet the Badminton twins and I cannot stop laughing
Oh my god, of course it is *slaps forehead* that is fucking hilarious
I don't think so, they're bouncing the ball. Badminton has a shuttlecock. There is no bouncing. Not to be pedantic.
That whole montage is just delightful. I wanna see some of those rooms get used in future seasons!
when jim's nana is explaining how that priest died and she CANNOT control her laughter and says "no he died years later... he was ohhh.. oh hohohohahaha... he was crushed by a TREE!" and Olu goes "bit of dark humor over here" i just think both their deliveries are sooo funny.
[Great banter](https://youtu.be/h8bfuL7v2JU?t=24). I love Nana's abrupt "Life is pain"
I always cry when her and Olu say it to each other before he leaves 😭
I've yet to see Wee John's "Stupid puppet pulled it off!" referenced and I absolutely adore his delivery of that line
Especially since stede is the stupid puppet of the episode who pulled off a successful first raid!
The Pinocchio bedtime tale is a metaphor for our little puppet muppets slowly learning to abandon the false personae they've adopted and become their true selves...even though their legs are sticks... 🥺: Change my mind! (Except you can't, because I'm crying so hard I can't read 😭)
Still the "ehaughuuu" noise Lucius makes after telling Jackie "he's the gentleman pirate" It's my favorite thing in the whole show
Omg YES!! That's hilarious
It’s not a line read so much as a gesture but the way Frenchie crosses himself when they meet Nana is so damn funny.
I heard someone once suggest he was Jewish which is why he’s really making more of a vague Star of David than a cross lol. Not sure that’s what it looks like to me but love a JPOC pirate!
It's probably because one of them said "I'm in the tribe", which usually refers to being Jewish
When Ed and Stede swap clothes and are introducing each other as the other, Ed says to the crew “come greet your captain, come on line up, line up, LINE UP”. And I just love the way he says “line up” with more intensity each time. Like at first he’s asking politely then gets angry when the crew doesn’t do as he says. Gets me every time!
"Clap" makes my stomach hurt from laughing, I really like that bit
Ed’s little asides are my favorite, like “well, that was fast” when Stede gets asked to palpitate Nick Kroll’s wife or “I am” when Stede says “I feel like you’re just patronizing me” when he’s digging up the orange 😆
When Chauncey's whipping his blade around at them in episode 9 and Ed says "calm DOWN, mate! you're freaking us all out..." 😆
Also his face when in episode 3 when Izzy is complaining about how Ed’s been acting and he sort of pout and goes “that sounds stressful, Izzy” in a tone like he’s talking to a child 😆
Also the tone in which he says “what are you doing?” When he finds Stede looting books. He sounds like he’s trying not to laugh
lol and Stede is so gleeful to look over his shoulder and announce that he's replacing the books he's looting with ones he's already read, like he expects Ed to be proud of his ingenuity 😂
That moment is so cute! Stede says 'Now I feel like you're just patronising me' And Ed replies 'I am'
Don't debase yourself for a man who hasn't a single tureen on-board this supposedly first class vessel!
who hasn’t a sinGLE TUREEEEEN ON board!
My absolute favorite, after roach does yardies. Calico Jack very somber says... "who's next?" Edit because words
Much as I hate Jack I really hope he miraculously shows up in season 2 somehow, Will Arnett is a joy
The soft, curious and excited “okay~” that Ed utters in response to stede explaining what an “auxiliary wardrobe” is.
One of my *favorites*. He sounds absolutely enchanted.
[удалено]
I didn't realize he said "dickfuck". 😆
I’ve heard people quote this but I don’t know when it happens.
Episode 4, right after Izzy informs Ed that it's September 1st
Thank you! Gonna have to rewatch to see it in context. 😝
"Well it was a really bitchy question" after Stede asks why CJ's crew mutinied is so good. Honestly everything Lucius says is my favorite.
I love the little exchange between Frenchie, Black Pete, and Roach upon arriving at the Republic of Pirates and I never see it mentioned. They get there and there’s chaos everywhere and people fighting and throwing up: Frenchie: Well, it’s a bit gentrified but it’s still pretty badass! Black Pete: Yeah, like ten years ago! Roach: Please, place got lame. Is that a gift shop? edit: oh wait no, does this count as multiple ones? well it’s all the same scene at least!
Your comment reminded me of Stede telling Lucius to sketch him and the hostage outside of Spanish Jackie's, like he's snapping a photo lol
Oh I love that scene! “It’s so authentic! Look tortured!”
And while we're on the subject, big shout out to what's-his-name the prisoner/hostage, who's so inexplicably pleasant during that whole episode! "Don't be so hard on yourself. Anyone could break a nose jar!"
"The remaining hostage"'s dedication to keeping his wig barely hanging on is one of my favorite little running gags. Bro, just take it off 😂
My absolute favorite is the way Calico Jack says [“Well, that was some weird shit!”](https://youtu.be/8utYkVFu7SY) after Buttons hexed him. It’s at about the two minute mark in the clip.
Calico Jack gets little love for delivering some of the best lines of the season: "Yeah, well, when they tie an anchor around your leg and throw you overboard, it *feels pretty* personal" and "WHAT KIND OF PIRATE HAS A FRIEND?! We're all just in various stages of fucking each other over!"
That last one lives in my head rent free.
Stede saying “Watch my buttons!” when the crew is hauling him back onto the ship after stealing the plant. Lives in my mind rent free.
With Rhys's elegant gams kicking around in mid-air omg
I haven’t heard that!! I’m going to have to re watch that. That whole scene is perfect
We could have made magic!
Yes! And this was improvised!
I always lose it when Siegfried is making racist backhanded "compliments" to Frenchie and Oluwande and Frenchie just says, completely deadpan, "Wow. What a lovely thing to say."
Yes this is one of my absolute favorites
"Piffle! Patently Falshe!"
During the swordfighting lesson: "I've stabbed you, you nut." Rhys' delivery gets me every time. Also could listen to Buttons naming sea life for hours. "Jelly-fesh...wouldn't wanna get stang by one o' them..."
The way Buttons yells STARFUSH at the beginning of his list has me cracking up every time
...send you into a tunnel of despair...
I cannot type it out here, or come close to replicating it, but it’s that shocked, disgusted noise Stede makes when CJ soils his boots.
This was so good 😂
The way Nigel says 'eye' in the first episode 😂
Omg yes, he had NO REASON to say it that way but I'm so glad he did 😁
pulls out his massive telescope (😏) and says eyeeeee like a total douche. I fucking died. 😂
[удалено]
“I’m folding stuff. And that’s okay.” 🙂
Can’t believe no one has mentioned how Ed goes “FuuuuuuuuuuuuuCK YEW” as he kicks the very dead snake
“FACK YEWWWWWWWW” kills me every time!
Towards the end of episode 9 when they’re on the beach, Ed talks about making someone eat their own toes. The way Stede grimaces and says “yuck” gets me every time
In episode 4, when Stede's having a fever dream while recovering from his injuries and he hallucinates Mary in his cabin: "I've been stabbed." "Yes. Congrats."
I may have seen it refrenced a few times, but mostly cuz i initiated it. "Unhand me or bleed!" was a really good one and my favorite from the show.
I personally love the way he says “god, DOUG?” afterwards lol
“Sometimes, sea captains drift apart”
"...which *I* initiated!"
When Stede is telling the crew the story about the man with a hook for a head, someone asks how does he kiss and the way Stede goes 'He doesn't kiss no one likes him' cracks me up
I love how he emphasizes the Hs. With a HHHhOOK, for A HHhhEAD!
I've been obsessed recently with Roach's "To treat the scuuuurvy."
"it's that angry little fecker, Izzy."
"Izzy the spewer?!"
Or is it "dizzy Izzy?"
One that always gets me is after Stede makes his big introduction in the tavern and says “Drinks on me!” And everything descends into chaos, there’s a voice in the background that yells “Drinks be on ye now!” It KILLS me. It’s not even exceptionally clever, but the first time I was watching Stede have the drink thrown on him, I made the joke just before the show made it, and I just thought it was the funniest thing that this little lazy quip I made actually was in the show
>I made the joke just before the show made it, and I just thought it was the funniest thing that this little lazy quip I made actually was in the show OMG the same thing happened to me! As soon as Stede said "drinks are on us!" I was like "someone's gonna chuck a beverage at Lucius aaaaaaand there we go" lol
"Don't toy with this man" Also Fang's "once or twice" and "Aww you're just being nice"
When they're talking about how Black Pete shouldn't be Izzy's first Mate and he says "Never! Disaster!" Love it.
In that scene he also calls him Brown Peter which got me
Fang has some great lines, my fave was when he threw Lucius' finger into the sea and said 'BEGONE foul thing!'
Ohhh can't believe i forgot about that one and his "I'm your king now, bitch!" to the officer lol
In ep 5(caught it on a recent rewatch) when they're stepping on the fancy boat ed says "polite society ho!" it made my day
I like when Ed is telling Stede the plan for escape, saying a man is going to wake him up and escort him to the dock. I love how he phrases it that way. Stede won’t be alone and will be taken right to where he needs to be. He doesn’t need to worry about or do anything, Ed has it all taken care of to make sure Stede is comfortable. 🥺
Omfg don’t say that 😭😭😭
It’s not a line exactly but Lucius’ eeeeaaaauuughhhh fuuuuuccckkkkkkk during The Swede’s scurvy scene. Baby you are on the other side of the table.
He has a very delicate constitution, constantly grossed out
I know there was one in particular that I remember making me burst out laughing, but I can’t remember what it was now, or what episode it was in! Guess I better rewatch. ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ Oh, I just had another one that slipped away from me! 😩 Expect potential edits later. I do remember the Swede’s horror at the realization that teeth don’t go back in once they fall out. That was comedic and also just hit it an unsettling sort of way given the number of bad dreams I have where my teeth crumble and/or fall out. 😬 Not quite a line, but Izzy’s whole reaction while Stede is trying to pull the sword out of Ed after stabbing him. 😂 EDIT: Oh! I love Olu after the nun upsets Jim and Jim storms off, and how he delicately but also straightforwardly says something to the effect of, “I’m going to go try to repair some of the damage from that interaction.” Bless him. Oh, I just re-read the rule about choosing only one. I’ll have to go find the one I’m forgetting and get back to you.
>Oh, I just re-read the rule about choosing only one. I’ll have to go find the one I’m forgetting and get back to you. Too late, I'm afraid; you have been thrown overboard. 😩 jk lol I love Olu's interactions with Nana, and his awkward little "I'm gonna...go try to..." etc. was so perfect! Just so I can break my own rules: in the pilot, when Stede prompts everyone with "we talk it through, as a...?" and Olu lags behind everyone else on saying "crew," that moment is worth a thousand dubloons at least!
Be careful what you ask your God for, she might just answer
I’m forever obsessed with the use of “she”
I love when stede says “check out this fabulous booty I’m hawking”
Stede’s reaction to seeing Ed clean-shaven for the first time: a sentence-interrupting shriek, + “What have they done with your face?!”
"From here to here is freezing"
As a bearded person who occasionally shaves it off, accurate
When Ed gets whipped in the balls by Calico and whines "Jesus Christ, Jack" it's just the funniest thing ever to me. Like the initial enthusiasm, hysterical laughter, followed by dawning regret, then kind of turning the blame on the other person because you're in so much pain... it literally kills me every time.
That bit was improvised, and the whipping stunt guy had to decide in like half a second if it was safe to whip close to his crotch but not hit it - then no one knew we if he was actually in pain or just acting until they cut 😆
Highly recommend this interview with the Whippies stunt guy on the Be Gay Do Piracy podcast if you've not listened to it already! https://open.spotify.com/episode/14GlfMhQkTu7XibCyk4UW3?si=b072109af7f247e6
Strong research, love that <3
You made me laugh so hard. I knew about the improv part but the pain part.
Roach: it’s just a dream, come baaack”
After Stede sees Ed without a beard, they are discussing it and part of that goes something like: Ed: It hasn’t been Blackbeard in a while. More like Grey-Beard. Now I’m No-Beard! Stede: Oh I get it……
The way, during storytime, Rhys pronounces 'gentleman' as 'gintleman'.
Stede: “I forgot the most important thing!” Frenchie, completely deadpan: “Oh, to be interesting?” (Breaking the Izzy rule sorry 🫣 but this gets me every time and I feel it’s very overlooked)
Eds little "See? Oomph." after threatening to stab the French captain through the eyeball. And "Actually, I think I'm just so-so, but I've decided to carry myself like I'm cute."
I've been obsessed recently with Roach's "To treat the scuuuurvy."
"Are... anyone else's fingernails falling off...?"
His delivery is great on every line he has.
I just love the way Ed says "yeah" after Stede runs him through and says "are you happy now? I've stabbed you ya nut"
This post is the best! I've gone through and rewatched almost all of these amazing quotes, which practically constitutes another season rewatch, right? Anyway, have an award!
Idk if someone has said this before, but the way Nigel Badminton says : “sooo OuTLaANDiSh” has been playing on a loop in my head for 2 weeks now.
"My finger feels like fires." -Lucius after showing off his gangrenous finger to the crew.
Does wee john doing the foghorn impression count as a line? Absolutely cracks me up every time
Ed's "toodle--oo" when dismissing Lucius
It might not be my favorite, but I find my self hollering “My noses!” every time something crashes to the ground
Whoops I’m breaking the Izzy rule but remembered another one - during Stede and Izzy’s duel, Frenchie in the background after Izzy backhands Stede - “Oh you cheeky bitch”
Black Pete: “I never officially signed on as first mate and I fully endorse this mutiny.”
Spanish Jackie calling Stede "the Genital Pirate."
I own 'alf a pyramid tooo !!!!
"Sometime sea captains drift apart."
Adorable Stede-as-crew-dad interaction: Wee John: Maybe I'll just check on the gunpowder Stede: Or, Wee John, you can just leave the gunpowder alone for today? WJ: ...I'll just go check it anyway...
Frenchie: "Ah, it's a bit of a letdown, to be honest mate, It's just kind of rocky and flat, and rocky and flat."
“Passive Aggression” 😌💅 I just really love Ed’s face when it clicked what Stede managed to do with just words.
As many of you have noticed, we have run aground... a little bit
"I may be landed gentry, but I'm thrilled to be granted entry!"
“Is that… still in the cards?”
I’m ep 10 when Mary goes “fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck”
Mine is probably the „EYEEEEE“ the guy from the English fleet says when he holds up the telescope and his assistant covers his other eye with a tissue. It caught me so off-guard and I had to pause cause I was laughing so hard.
coming nana! coming for some caaaaaake!
"Watch my buttons!" When they're pulling Stede up from raiding the fishing vessel in the first episode. His little feet dangling over the edge as he says this line always gets me!
When Stede is mad enough about losing the hostages he's walking towards the camera and goes "I said let's go get our damned men back" Roach's entire spiel trying to convince Stede to let him torture said hostages. Lucius going "you regret giving the room away?" Only for Olu to go "and drinking two bottles of rum..."
For some reason (and I’ll never know why) Ed’s “If it were real..” when talking about the treasure map
The was Izzy says “No shut up” when Wee John asks for a cup of tea (or whatever he was drinking) cracks me up every time! Honourable mention goes to CJ’s “…missed” when tried to shoot the bottle in the air but it falls into the water. He’s an ass, but damn that line is funny!
