This episode is really the first time I start to like Vane. He's just been a bit of a douche up until this point but you start to see his smarts a little bit better at this point. Takes over the fort, gets over on Eleanor, and blackballs Jack without having to kill him.



this is going to come off really stupid... but why is he on the outs with Eleanor and Flint at the beginning? I never really got that exactly spelled out after watching 2x. i heard something about him killing somebody, but never picked it up.

I don't think it's stupid because I don't think it's ever fully explained.

I always took it as a few different things. 1) Vane hated/disliked Flint over Elanor for some reason. Probably because Vane and Eleanor had a history and Eleanor now seems to be siding with Flint instead of him and 2) Flint and Vane have two different views of Nassau. Flint see's Vane as an old school pirate with different plans for Nassau, almost like he's stuck in the past and Flint wants a change to Nassau, more progressive. So just their outlook on things are completely different.

I could be wrong on both of those, but that's kind of how I viewed it.

I might be remembering it wrong or maybe forgot a detail but I’m pretty sure Vane is assisting in the mutiny efforts against Flint at the beginning. He, Rackham and Bonny are behind the murder of Mosiah which was meant to sway votes against Flint and for Singleton. The plan was for Singleton to usurp Flint, fail as captain and for Vane to take control of the Walrus crew. Pretty sure Rackham explains this later.
