Biography[]
Season Two[]
Holmes boards the Good Fortune with his captain and crew mates. The merchant crew surrenders and the pirates begin gathering the cargo. However, Meeks discovers that Abigail Ashe, the daughter of the Governor of Carolina, Lord Peter Ashe, is a passenger aboard the ship. Low decides to take her captive and ransom her and orders his crew to slaughter the merchant crew to cover their tracks. Holmes participates in the subsequent massacre of the Good Fortune crew[1].
Low, suspicious of his quartermaster, assigns Holmes to tail him. Holmes follows Meeks to the tavern, where he sees Meeks nervously enter Eleanor's office. When Meeks exits, Holmes and Low corner him, and Low reveals that he had Holmes follow him. Meeks explains that he has a duty to the men. Low agrees, and says that maybe their interests are best served by Meeks betraying him, or maybe it is the act of a spineless traitor. He then assists Low in the decapitation of the Fancy's quartermaster Meeks[2].
Holmes watches from the gunwales as Charles Vane rows to the ship. While Vane meets with Low in the great cabin, Holmes is stabbed in the chest and killed by men from Charles Vane's crew when Vane took over the Fancy from Low. When Low tries to call out to Holmes, unaware that he is dead, Vane replies "Mr. Holmes doesn't work here anymore" before killing Low[3].
While sailing to Charles Town, Abigail Ashe has a nightmare where she and Miranda Barlow are hiding belowdecks during the massacre aboard the Good Fortune. Holmes and Low then arrive and find the two, with Holmes dragging away Miranda while Low looms over Abigail[4].
