Transcript
00:01How does immortality taste?
00:05Depends on the price.
00:08And trust me, you will pay.
00:13See, friend?
00:15Guys like me don't roll the dice unless they're rigged.
00:21We don't set foot on ghost ships unless we're holding all the cards.
00:27Nothing again.
00:31Just more silence.
00:34Maybe it's all just a fairy tale.
00:38But I ain't no fairy tale hero.
00:42Never was.
00:44A letter in a bottle.
00:46Stories for kids.
00:49I'm not a kid.
00:51And I've got nothing left to lose.
00:54Every breath I take, credit I'll never pay off.
01:00That lighthouse doesn't shine for me anymore.
01:04But this...
01:09This is the sign I've been waiting for.
01:13I brought something.
01:16A little gift.
01:18For the devil.
01:22I'll never be more ready than I am right now.
01:25No.
01:28This ride...
01:30No round trip.
01:31No round trip.
01:41There it is.
01:43The corpse barge.
01:46Sliding out of the fog.
01:49Wooden bones on black water.
01:52A dead man at the helm.
01:55We nod.
01:57He signals.
01:59And I get it now.
02:01It's time.
02:03You think I'm here to save you, friend.
02:07But truth is...
02:09You're saving me.
02:10You're saving me.
02:20But if I'm a cruel bastard.
02:23Violates your best laid plans.
02:26And spits on what's left.
02:28But I know the difference between drifting with fate.
02:33And clawing your way out.
02:36I'm ready.
02:40I'm ready.
02:41What?
02:42What?
02:44No.
02:46I didn't wanna be able to move on.
02:48I didn't want to move on.
02:49You can get to the side of it.
02:51I saw the road there.
02:53I haven't seen it.
02:54I don't know.
03:07Something in me died, something worse took its place, I feel it, a splinter in my brain
03:23that won't come out.
03:28But I'm still alive, their mistake.
03:45I know where they're taking me, to a king, sitting on a throne of rot and rust.
03:55He looks at me like I'm just another bullet for his gun.
04:06The dead captain's on a leash now.
04:11I know about the letter in the bottle.
04:15You should be grateful to me.
04:20I made you immortal.
04:27That's your boat, once again.
04:31I'll give you a choice.
04:35We need more slaves.
04:39Go back to your boat.
04:42Take the traitor's place.
04:44Or rot in the hold.
04:50Poor bastard.
04:52I didn't come to save him.
04:55Guess I'm the next dog.
04:58Fine.
04:59I'll play along.
05:01A good choice.
05:02Either way.
05:04I've got my plan.
05:11I hate him.
05:13Wait.
05:14Fire.
05:15Right into his rotten face.
05:18The dead come from me.
05:21I grab a bat.
05:23Smash skulls.
05:25Brave bones and little sticks.
05:35Break bones and little sticks.
05:40My hooks waiting for me.
05:58Back on my ship.
06:01Covered in a lid of old hate.
06:05The dead come from me.
06:06And then came fire.
06:19Let's go.
06:49Let's go.
07:19Let's go.
07:21Flames dancing to my rhythm.
07:24He kneels.
07:26Eyes burned out.
07:28Begging for mercy.
07:30So I give it to him.
07:33I didn't save anyone.
07:37I didn't save the world.
07:39I saved myself.
07:45I sit on the throne now.
07:47Immortality?
07:49Fine.
07:51But on my terms.
07:53All right.
07:54No.
07:56Let's go.
