OurFlagMeansDeath's rhysiedarby discusses Stede's biggest moments in the last two episodes, where his character's mindset is by season's end, how the finale is like 'Grease 2,' and more.

Editor's note: The below interview contains major spoilers for Episodes 9 and 10 of Our Flag Means Death.

Collider: Last week's episode ends in a bit of a precarious position for Stede and Blackbeard, especially, but right at the end after they've gotten apprehended, Blackbeard nudges Stede's foot with his own. Was that something in the script, or was that something that was improvised in filming? DARBY: I absolutely love the scenes that have that sincerity. Because comedy is so easy for me, and we do the comedy and I enjoy it. I can't wait to do the next comedic piece and I can't wait to improvise to put people off and make them laugh and make them work extra hard not to laugh because they don't know what's going to happen, and we create this funniest thing that we can do.

But it just so happened to be Ed, because Ed felt invigorated. He felt like he had finally let go of the persona of Blackbeard, the evil side of him. Once the beard came off and everything, he's like some dashing guy from the Mills & Boon — you probably don't know what those books are. DARBY: The romance novels. Yeah.

But there was a moment where... finally, after everything bad he had done to her, to the marriage, she was okay with it, and there was just this soft moment where she could see that this is really what he got out of leaving. He was searching for something, and they weren't supposed to be together, which she knew anyway.
