Eme

Background

Eme is a slave.

During the events of Black Sails: Season 1 Episode 6 VI. played by Sibongile Mlambo

The slaves pass a rag to each other until it reaches Eme who tries to hand it to Mr. Scott. When he doesn't take it, Alpha Slave says something and Eme translates to Mr. Scott that Alpha Slave wants him to take it and place it through a porthole. The Alpha Slave continues speaking and Eme tells Mr. Scott that the Alpha Slave has a plan to help the crew of The Walrus and thinks if they do, then The Walrus crew will take them with them. Mr. Scott refuses and says he cannot let the cannons get onto The Walrus. Eme then does it herself.

Eme tells Mr. Scott that he will never see the person he is willing to sacrifice their lives for again. The slaves are thrown a spike from the porthole and when their guard checks on them, Mr. Scott tells him that Eme is a trouble maker. As the guard is about to search Eme, Mr. Scott chokes him to death with his chains. The crew of The Walrus start to rhythmically chop at the Andromache and Mr. Scott figures their plan out and uses the spike to start breaking the chains. Captain Bryson figures out something is wrong and sends Hayes to the hold. The slaves attack and kill them and then charge into the bunker and as Bryson is choking Mr. Scott to death, he is shot in the face by a Walrus crew member. Mr. Scott opens the door of the bunker allowing The Walrus crew to come in. As Bryson crawls to the explosive charge he set, Eme stabs him to death.
