The Gentleman Pirate is an animated docu-comedy produced by Internet Historian and uploaded on his second channel, Incognito Mode. It’s the eighth edition of Internet Historian’s Sundance Rejects, and with a running time of one hour and sixteen minutes is currently the longest single video produced under his name.The video tells the true story of early eighteenth-century Barbadian Stede Bonnet (Ordinary Things), a man who had an early mid-life crisis and decided to go a-pirating. When his wedded life leaves him miserable, Bonnet decides to take to the seas with his own ship and crew despite his inexperience. On his journeys, he meets infamous pirate Blackbeard, who Bonnet appoints as a temporary shadow captain. But when Bonnet’s crew grows to favor Blackbeard’s leadership, the Gentleman Pirate soon realizes pirating isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.The video was teased at the end of "TheVarus Strakes Buck", posted in August 2020. A trailer was posted a month later. It debuted on YouTube in November 2020.It primarily stars the voices of Ordinary Things, Internet Historian, and SumitoMedia. The video is heavily stylized with Internet Historian’s Creator Thumbprint, utilizing Limited Animation, crudely edited stock photos, and outsourced media. The Gentleman Pirate includes backgrounds and models from, but not limited to, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Game of Thrones.

Let Me Tell You a Story: The quartermaster tells Stede Bonnet about his time on the Quintessential, the last ship he worked on. The story tells of a captain with bad luck who brings on a deputy. When the deputy proves effective, the crew attributes their prosperity to him, and they install him as the new captain. The anecdote ends with the the crew decapitating the old captain and throwing his head into the ocean and the new captain leaving the crew stranded on Nassau.

Surprisingly Happy Ending
 The Gentleman Pirate (Web Animation) / int_25b4ad2f
comment
Surprisingly Happy Ending: Played for Laughs after Internet Historian sadly notes that in reality, Bonnet was hung for piracy anyway after the Hope Spot of a supposed pardon from the governor. So to alleviate it, Internet Historian comes up with a new ending where Bonnet escapes from his execution, guns down his enemies and ex-wife, reunites with his estranged children who forgave him for abandoning them, and sails off on a speedboat filled with gold into the horizon with them and the quartermaster who is inexplicably alive again. And they lived Happily Ever After.

Plot Armor: Explicitly mentioned since Reality Is Unrealistic. When the authorities catch up to Stede Bonnet following his escape from prison, they kill one of his remaining companions and injure the other two, but manage to catch Stede himself completely unharmed. That's not even getting into his numerous Too Dumb to Live decisions that he inexplicably survived the fallout of to get to that point.

Kick the Dog

comment
Kick the Dog: In a fit of rage, Mary Allamby throws out the miniature pirate ship that Stede's had since childhood. It accidentally causes the death of their son, Allamby. Blackbeard's crew, under the leadership of Lieutenant Richards, force Stede to mop. When he announces he's done, the crew says "I think you missed a spot" and dumps water all over the deck while laughing, forcing Stede to clean up again. The bank teller's son teases Ignatius Pell with what he presumed to be Stede's pardon. Theoretically, if he wanted the pardon to not get to Stede, he could've just ripped it up, but he decided to be an ass about it.

comment
Artistic License – History: A few instances, not including fictionalized characterization. There’s no sources that state Allamby Bonnet was wheelchair-bound. He also didn’t die via rolling off a cliff into a river. In fact, Allamby was at most 2 at the time of his death, not the child shown in the video, but reality is much less funny. During Blackbeard's "The Reason You Suck" Speech towards Bonnet, he claims "not all of us had rich parents who could send us to school to learn to read or write". By most accounts, Blackbeard was literate just like Bonnet and thus some speculate he might have come from a privileged background himself. According to Ignatius Pell’s testimony, the quartermaster, named Robert Tucker, wasn’t killed in the Battle of Cape Fear, but was captured with Bonnet's crew and hanged in November 1718. If Pell's word can be taken at face value, this would be a case of Dies Differently in Adaptation. Lampshaded in this piece of dialogue:

While awaiting his execution, Mary Allamby visits Stede to catch up and gloat.

"The Reason You Suck" Speech
 The Gentleman Pirate (Web Animation) / int_7d89315b
comment
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Four instances; all directed at Bonnet, go figure. Just before taking Stede hostage in Nassau, Blackbeard gives one, decrying Stede's choosing to be a pirate while under a privileged background, unaware that Stede turned to piracy due to heavy debt and family trouble. Combined with possibly the most comedic example of O.O.C. Is Serious Business ever put to film, the quartermaster gives one just before Stede decides (unwisely) to engage in the Battle of Cape Fear River. It's said that Judge Nicholas Trott gave one to Bonnet in court, chastising him on his privileged upbringing and the stupidity of throwing it all away. While awaiting his execution, Mary Allamby visits Stede to catch up and gloat. She talks about how Stede made her and her children's life a misery, and how her new husband, David Rycroft, fixed everything Bonnet couldn't. She ends her speech by telling Bonnet his children hate him and that she hopes he's dead soon.

Establishing Character Moment
 The Gentleman Pirate (Web Animation) / int_7febc23b
comment
Establishing Character Moment: Mary Allamby's first line establishes how she feels about her husband and what's she's most concerned about. Stede's first plundering shows how unready he is for life at sea, panicking at the sight of a ship and shouting vaguely-nautical-sounding jargon, looking like a fool among his crew. The quartermaster distracts Bonnet so he could instruct the men and do most of the captaining work, informing the audience he's the Hyper-Competent Sidekick.

The judge ignored it, saying that Pell said otherwise in writing and sentenced Bonnet to death anyways. Pell became distraught, and after catching wind of a letter from Governor Johnson, rushed to deliver it to the executioner before Bonnet would die in the gallows... only for the said letter to not be a pardon, but approval of the execution.

According to Ignatius Pell’s testimony, the quartermaster, named Robert Tucker, wasn’t killed in the Battle of Cape Fear, but was captured with Bonnet's crew and hanged in November 1718. If Pell's word can be taken at face value, this would be a case of Dies Differently in Adaptation.

Shout-Out
 The Gentleman Pirate (Web Animation) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: References to other works by Internet Historian: Bonnet’s dead father comes to speak to Stede. As he's fading away, he says “I’m going through a tunnel" and abruptly leaves. This is a reference to how Internet Historian occasionally ends his In the Field videos.note The trailer posted in September 2020 states that The Gentleman Pirate had been in production for 6 months at that point. This possibly means it was in production since March 2020. The first instance of the “I’m going through a tunnel” ending was in “art.” posted in March 2020. There’s a probability that the In the Field endings were actually Production Foreshadowing for The Gentleman Pirate, rather than the other way around. The “old man” in "The Swedish Job" appears briefly. His hook hand nicks Bonnet’s contract the same way he nicks the map in "The Swedish Job". Two of the paintings stolen in "The Swedish Job" are featured in the backgrounds. One on Bonnet's ship and one in the bank teller's office. From the deleted lyrics to The Captain Montage, a lyric says “Oh look, a friendly bee!” The same line Honey Man uses in "Exploring the Japanese Kitkat Forest". Which, in and of itself, is a Simpsons reference. References to other media: “I missed the part where that’s my problem” comes from Spider-Man. The scene where Governor Johnson is caught talking to his Stede Bonnet wooden doll is a reference to Spaceballs. "The Salty Spitoon" is a reference to Spongebob Squarepants. Allamby Bonnet's death scene is a clip from Mac and Me. Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag The model for Blackbeard is AC Blackbeard. The model for Benjamin Hornigold is AC Benjamin Hornigold. The model for Nathaniel Patridge is, ironically, AC Stede Bonnet. Pirates of the Caribbean The pirate who robs the bank in the beginning is depicted as Jack Sparrow. The model for David Herriot is Ragetti. When the quartermaster tells Bonnet about his time on the Quintessential, the pictures used to portray his story are edited stills from Pirates of the Caribbean.

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"
 The Gentleman Pirate (Web Animation) / int_d7b34c31
comment
Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": The quartermaster is only referred to as "Quartermaster" throughout the film, even in the credits. When his title changes to one-eighthmaster, he's referred to as such by the other characters and the Narrator.

Company Cross References

comment
References to other works by Internet Historian: Bonnet’s dead father comes to speak to Stede. As he's fading away, he says “I’m going through a tunnel" and abruptly leaves. This is a reference to how Internet Historian occasionally ends his In the Field videos.note The trailer posted in September 2020 states that The Gentleman Pirate had been in production for 6 months at that point. This possibly means it was in production since March 2020. The first instance of the “I’m going through a tunnel” ending was in “art.” posted in March 2020. There’s a probability that the In the Field endings were actually Production Foreshadowing for The Gentleman Pirate, rather than the other way around. The “old man” in "The Swedish Job" appears briefly. His hook hand nicks Bonnet’s contract the same way he nicks the map in "The Swedish Job". Two of the paintings stolen in "The Swedish Job" are featured in the backgrounds. One on Bonnet's ship and one in the bank teller's office. From the deleted lyrics to The Captain Montage, a lyric says “Oh look, a friendly bee!” The same line Honey Man uses in "Exploring the Japanese Kitkat Forest". Which, in and of itself, is a Simpsons reference.

Red Herring
 The Gentleman Pirate (Web Animation) / int_dbca2c99
comment
Red Herring: It's heavily hinted that Blackbeard is going to take advantage of Bonnet bringing him on as a shadow captain to take over Bonnet's ship and crew. As soon as the crew take over a ship that's more impressive than The Revenge, Blackbeard takes control of it, hands control of Bonnet's ship and crew back to him, and the two promptly part ways. Blackbeard does take control of Bonnet's ship and crew later, but only after said crew had already abandoned Bonnet due to his being unable to match Blackbeard's success. Later, King George of England passed "The Act of Grace", which promised a full pardon and a possible position as a privateer to pirates who turned themselves in. It's hinted that this is likely to be a trick, and Bonnet is portrayed as naive for letting Blackbeard talk him into accepting the offer. It turns out to be completely legitimate. Except that Blackbeard stole all of the valuables from Bonnet's ship and marooned his crew while he was occupied, forcing Bonnet to continue pillaging in defiance of his side of the agreement in order to resupply.

High-Pressure Blood: The quartermaster gets cut in half by a cannonball. In a desperate attempt to help, Stede Bonnet flips his body upside down, only for his blood and entrails to comically erupt like a fountain, resulting in a large portion of the deck being covered in the quartermaster's blood.

Hollywood Costuming: Zig-zagged. The film contains inaccurate pirate and military costumes, but none of the "costumes" were designed for the film. A number of characters are actually Halloween costume models.

Very Loosely Based on a True Story: The film is pretty accurate to what really happened. But it's explicitly mentioned that embellishments had been made to characters and dialogue and that the timeline was edited for the story to flow better.

Combined with possibly the most comedic example of O.O.C. Is Serious Business ever put to film, the quartermaster gives one just before Stede decides (unwisely) to engage in the Battle of Cape Fear River.

But Now I Must Go: Played for Laughs. The spirit/ghost of Stede's father appears in the moon to speak before him. Bonnet asks for guidance. His father abruptly says "I must go now" and spouts some stock words of wisdom and gives no actual advice, then promptly leaves.
