The parallel of Ed saying "Im supposed to kill... you" and "I guess what makes Ed happy is... you" Both are whispered but my god this is doing things to my heart.
"you don't belong in doggy heaven" is SO fucking funny and sad and sweet and shitty at the same time. one could write a whole ass essay on this line alone
One of my absolute favorite scenes in the whole show. I think it's the first time we really see Edward and not Blackbeard. His child-like mannerisms when he's rendered vulnerable as he recalls the trauma, the high-pitched, pouty choked sobs, the way he is looking for Stede's touch to soothe himself, it's so :(((( He's like a completely different person. Taika Waititi was amazing in this scene
I saw an interview with Rhys Darby where he stated that since both him and Taika Waititi have father issues, some of the emotions in this scene are no acting at all
@@tieferwasser8318 i didn't know about rhys darby but having seen Taika Waititi's movies (namely Boy, Hunt for the Wilderpeople and jojo rabbit) and a few interviews, yeah father figures tend to be a constant in his works
Ugh YES, Taika’s vulnerability in this scene is so moving and proves he’s an amazing actor in addition to being good at literally everything else in the film industry
@@aur1ta I feel this. I'm sure plenty of us do, unfortunately. I end up using those in my own characters for dnd. I haven't had the chance to really lean into it since my friends know I have these traumas and I don't want to scare them. But we do have an intense actor in the group who really dives in so maybe someday soon.
It's called age regression. It's a coping mechanism for trauma. He was about 13 when he killed his dad, so he's probably in a decently young mindset. Killing his abusive father was definitely traumatic for him.
Stede gently asking "and, um. is that still on the cards, or.." absolutely kills me. I'm a big fan of both of their deliveries in funny and heartfelt (devastating) contexts. Love this show.
The intimacy of Ed letting Stede see him like this though, letting himself be comforted. How long would it have been since he's let someone see him be vulnerable like this, see him small and scared and crying, seeking comfort?
i feel like most crying in media is so fake…especially when men cry. it’s always that one single tear running down the face bullshit. but taika’s sobs in this scene are so real it genuinely made my stomach weak :(
Taika is such an amazing fucking actor- The little ‘we could?’ Sounds so fucking innocent and hopeful… the little breaks In his voice and everything- This scene literally broke me
According to David Jenkins, this is one of the first scenes they did together. Taika was really ready to just film it because he felt locked in to the moment and the character. He’s also said that this scene worked so beautifully because of how Rhys just listens and acts off of what Taika is giving him. So grateful they put so much into these moments.
I adore how even when faced with news that he was meant to be getting killed, Stede genuinely looks worried not about himself, but about Ed. There is something beautiful and so perfectly Stede about how his face just screams "Will this make you feel better?" rather than the expected "I don't want to die" when he suggests forgetting the whole idea!
So true! Stede HAS been shown to be a bit ambivalent about wanting to stay alive, to begin with, but it's VERY clear that what matters to Stede right now is Ed's wellbeing. At this point, Stede would have probably been okay with Ed killing him and taking over the ship since everyone else likes him so much... but he saw that Ed was miserable with the very thought of it, so tried to make him feel better by aliviating his guilt and be there for him. Such a sweetheart.
Okay, but on the note of “Doggy Heaven”, Ed still images Bonnet going to a heaven, while in a previous episode Bonnet clearly image himself going to hell.
Bonnet believes himself to be the worst human ever because he abandoned his family (even though it really was for the best and everyone WAS happier). Ed believes Bonnet to be the best because of how kind, caring and generous he is. Ed believes himself to be the worst because he’s hurt and killed people. Bonnet believes Ed to be the best pirate he’s ever seen. You can tell just how lonely and tired Ed was as Blackbeard.
I agree with him. It's not about having kiss scenes, it's about seeing the characters having little intimate moments like this one. In Good Omens (if you didn't watch it, you should now), I think the best moment is when Crowley gives Aziraphale his books, then goes away and Azi looks at him while realising he can't deny anymore that he loved him.
Lordy this was so masterfully done. It's not often I see these types of regressive behaviors portrayed by men. Like, while he's having what I can only describe as a PTSD episode, his voice and mannerisms are very child-like (basically he's acting the age he was when he experienced that trauma). I feel like men's trauma responses are often only depicted as violent. I barely see this amount of sincere vulnerability and nuanced representation of childhood trauma in dramas, let alone in a "silly" comedy about pirates. Also once it switches to the next scene you clearly see and hear the difference in Taika's pitch and mannerisms when talking to the crew as opposed to when he's alone with Stede. He feels safe enough with Stede to let himself genuinely be vulnerable and work through what he's experiencing instead of just shutting down. It also helps that Stede handled the whole interaction wonderfully. It's honestly incredible. God I'm rambling and not sure if I'm making much sense but this is so beautifully done and you can tell it meant a lot to everyone who worked on it.
Fuck, regressive behavior in trauma is still usually ridiculed _in real life_ , let alone fiction. The fact that they showed a middle aged man having a flashback then curling up in a bathtub while talking childishly and played that aspect dead serious just shows the writers gave no fucks in the best way possible.
I think Ed didn't expect(and we probably did not either) that Stede can and will break a lock to force his way through to him because he is not going to leave someone he cares about alone. I love them
How beautifully refreshing to see men being vulnerable with one another and supportive of each other. Somehow these two were able to play it funny and sweet without Ed's vulnerable emotion becoming a joke. Amazing!👏🏻
God this always makes me wanna cry. There’s just so much raw emotion in Taika’s performance. Ed’s not a character in this scene, he’s a real person that I wish I could reach out to and comfort with all my heart. Especially cause I, and so many others I know, cry exactly like this. It’s not pretty, it’s not eloquent, it’s just Ed having a hard time. And that makes it so easy to empathize with him.
I was too. I was like "let me guess, it's never going to be EXPLICITLY shown or talked about on camera." Then they kissed and for ten solid seconds I was fucking appalled because "wait what. You mean I DIDNT get queerbaited this time?!"
@@therealopaartist I felt the same way. I literally cried after the kiss because I was so happy and shocked they were actually giving us this. Of course, that feeling didn't last long when I realized Stede had gone back to Mary. That's when the anger set in. Thankfully, we're getting season 2, so I'm hopeful they'll be reunited.
@@mandipandi303 keep in mind THIS IS ONLY SEASON ONE. Who KNOWS what shit is going to go down in futures season(s)?! I want a golden age of piracy era version of Stede holding a boom box outside someone’s window! Is it plausible? PROBABLY? Givin David Jenkins said “lol no” to any historical accuracy
@@therealopaartist Totally. I'm confident David wouldn't do us dirty like that. I'm hoping the ending is Ed and Stede are going to be executed, but they pull a fuckery and escape. They run away together and open Ed's restaurant. Olu becomes captain and the crew lives on. That's my ideal ending.
I literally can’t get over this show. I love it. It came out at the perfect time considering the world and how bad it is, and we just needed some comforting pirates loving each other. Season 2 better come out soon!
I was waiting for you to upload this. Thank you ❤ Y'all have no idea the amount of times I said "babieeees" during this series. It was always either "awww babieeees 🥰" during cute scenes or "noooo babieees 🥺😭" when the show got sad. This was definitely a sad "babies" moment.
I think this is my favorite scene. This so sad and cute and heartwarming and Ed snuggling his head against Stede's hand is... aaarrrh I don't even have the words !! You don"t belong in doggy heaven
drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kb1afhYUJYP0oO4JRwgqEsfWw-ntBMGu?usp=sharing here's a link to a drive folder of all the episodes - I hope youtube doesn't smite me lol
It’s such a sweet scene but it’s kinda funny that it’s also the one time we see Stede a little scared of Ed with things like “is that still in the cards?” and the very slightly worried “I would love that”.
Ed laying his head on Stede's hand is so sweet it makes me want to scream
I like how they zoomed out and made it just an intimate moment for the two of them, and we get to peak in😍
And the little thank you before that? 🥺 it breaks my heart.
GOD SAME OMG LIKE 😭😭😭🤌
I actually screamed the 1rst time I saw it
And for once we are rewarded.... ak sfhjl kff fdfjkl n.v vnnn!!!!!
The parallel of Ed saying "Im supposed to kill... you" and "I guess what makes Ed happy is... you"
Both are whispered but my god this is doing things to my heart.
SHUUUUT UUUUP ur a genius i didn’t even think about that holy shit im inconsolable
Just when I thought I knew all the heartbreaking stuff in this silly show, someone simply points something out and my mental health just comes undone
Yes! It's like both times he can barely bring himself to say the truth out loud.
I noticed... Because I watch the kiss scene before all the show, so... Is Edward being sincere with allhis heart.
@@Oreo-vh7rk I'm sorry. I truly hate myself for pointing it out. I know the pain 😔🥲
"you don't belong in doggy heaven" is SO fucking funny and sad and sweet and shitty at the same time. one could write a whole ass essay on this line alone
Please do!
“I’m not a good person, Stede. That’s why I don’t have any friends.”
That’s such a childlike thing to say. It’s sweet how he says it.
One of my absolute favorite scenes in the whole show. I think it's the first time we really see Edward and not Blackbeard.

I've never really seen a scene be successfully dead serious and hilarious at the same time intentionally
BIG SAME!
Agreed. Taika Waititi is an amazing writer.
@@spyguy4096 Although a lot of place was left to improv, he didn't write this show, David Jenkins did. Taika stars and executive produces it.
@@LaManelle ah. my bad!
Stede is simultaneously hilarious in reaction to the predicament he unwittingly survived, and so, so very comforting and sweet to Ed.
Stede gently asking "and, um. is that still on the cards, or.." absolutely kills me. I'm a big fan of both of their deliveries in funny and heartfelt (devastating) contexts. Love this show.
Listen, this scene is incredibly touching and all, but Stede’s “…*doggy* heaven?” always puts me in stitches
Idk how Rhys does that with his face, but that line delivery KILLS me 😂😂
It's the genuine confusion and he goes, "Is that a pirate term or?"
Yes and it just shows how well this show keeps a comedic tone while still having genuine heartbreaking/heartwarming scenes.
The intimacy of Ed letting Stede see him like this though, letting himself be comforted. How long would it have been since he's let someone see him be vulnerable like this, see him small and scared and crying, seeking comfort?

Ed believes himself to be the worst because he’s hurt and killed people.

when ed rested his head on stede's hand i audibly went 'WRRRHHR' and kicked my legs
SAME THO this whole show had me catching my breath and screaming a bit
@@legallyrequired sameee..also off topic I see your man in glass pfp :))
SAME
Ed flinching at Stede’s knocking at 0:07 is so heart-wrenching. That and the fact that Stede literally broke down the door to get to him :(
Aw, I didn’t even notice the flinch. Such a good depiction of a guy going through a traumatic episode. :(
I didn't know he broke the door
Not Ed hitting his head on the back and saying "no"😭
Taika considers this scene more romantic than the kiss.
I agree with him. It's not about having kiss scenes, it's about seeing the characters having little intimate moments like this one. In Good Omens (if you didn't watch it, you should now), I think the best moment is when Crowley gives Aziraphale his books, then goes away and Azi looks at him while realising he can't deny anymore that he loved him.

I think the most shocking thing to this scene is Stede breaking the door lock to get to Ed did not see that coming from him.
Admittedly it's kind of hot.

Ed's "no" after "im your friend" where he throws his head back a bit is so real. Hits my heart everytime
The absolute agony of Ed as he throws his head back and cries "No!" at how sweetly Stede affirms their friendship I'm
I'm destroyed
Me: these are grown adults I do not have to pity them
Also me: (sees Blackbeard in tears) AHHH LET ME HOLD THIS LAD PLEASE HE’S SO UPSET
I love how stede is obviously a bit shaken by the fact that ed is supposed to kill him, but he keeps it together and focuses on comforting ed
His little “no” at 2:09 gets me every time
God this always makes me wanna cry. There’s just so much raw emotion in Taika’s performance.

How many times have you watched this?
Me - Yes.
How many times in a row without distractions have you watched this
Me- Yes
🤣🤣
Not Stede kicking in a whole ass door to get to Ed!
This scene encapsulates perfectly the bittersweetness of the show. Thank you for uploading it!
the parralels between this scene and the scene where he has lucius write down the song he wrote are killing me
Yay! I was hoping you’d upload this. It’s such a great and emotional scene, but Stede’s reaction to “Doggy heaven” kills me. 😂
for me it’s the way he asks “is that still in the cards? or?” like i lose my shit every time i rewatch it it’s so funny
I mean, Stede is as sweet as a puppy, but still!
I was so sure we were going to be queerbaited with them. I've never been so happy to be wrong.

I love how he took Stedes battle jacket for comfort
the frickin-
“im your friend.”
“no…”
the “no” broke my fucking heart-
I love how this scene is both so sweet and genuine but also extremely hilarious
And to this day we still don't know if Doggy
Heaven is a pirate term or...
Bro this is the part that made me ugly cry, so good
‘You don’t belong in doggy heaven’ 🥺😭
‘…doggy heaven??’ 🤣🤣

You don't understand I'm going fucking feral
i am in fact screaming, crying and throwing up
oh my god i forgot the significance of the kraken. every little detail makes the end of season one that much more painful aaaa
I am OBSESSED with this show!
"thank u" :(

thank u so much for your service
Stede looks so good in black
Doggy heaven 😂
this scene wrecks me
I just read the title as I'm Your Boyfriend and I'm not correcting myself
Ed is just baby girl
Ed's childhood was dark. He is a good man but the messed up life
such an underrated scene
Thank you for posting this. Just... thank you so much.
This scene absolutely destroyed me
This is one of my favourite scenes! It's so cute 🥺🥰
I can’t believe Ed was this vulnerable with this scrub only to get abandoned. I need Stede to grovel the entire season!
I think this is my favorite scene. This so sad and cute and heartwarming and Ed snuggling his head against Stede's hand is... aaarrrh I don't even have the words !!
You don"t belong in doggy heaven
Thank you for this.
Is Stedes yellow robe in the tub with Ed? The same one he wore when they had there first conversation in his cabin?
There’s something virginal about Stede.
I cried during this scene. I can relate to Blackbeard's experience, and I loved this above all in season one
Fucking... Taika Waititi. Absolutely killing me.
the way ed puts his head on stede's hand makes me homicidal i need to set a village on fire i'm feeling too many things
