In true Our Flag Means Death style, this episode is so sweet and so heartfelt while also still managing to be totally hilarious. In an effort to keep Blackbeard entertained, Stede takes him on a treasure hunt, which turns into basically a first date (that neither of them know is a date) with Lucius third-wheeling and very much picking up on some romantic cues between the pair of them. The improvised scene about Blackbeard's imaginary bar and grill is a funny bit that really showcases the chemistry these two actors have with each other.
Meanwhile, the Swede has scurvy thanks to an inordinate use of all the ship's oranges, so the crew sets out to find some citrus on land. We get some great backstory for Jim here and some really sweet character interactions between them and Oluwande. Romantic developments for all! I love it.
