Biography[]
Background[]
When Edward Teach was a pirate, Netta was his woman. This put her services in great demand, for many men wanted the woman that the notorious Blackbeard had. However, when Teach retired, her business faded considerably.
Season Three[]
Teach returns to piracy and brings the Pirate Fleet from Nassau to Ocracoke after Woodes Rogers' conquest. He reconciles with Netta and the two have sex. Afterwards, Netta tells him that he is still handsome, and he calls her a gifted liar. Netta tells him how he put her services in great demand when he was a pirate, but when he retired, her business dried up. She remarks that it is always the little people who get hurt when the market turns. She then asks him what Charles Vane is doing at Ocracoke. She reminds him of how angry and disappointed he was after Vane's betrayal, and his proclomation that only God made sons. Teach replies that things are different now, for they don't need to last long. He explains that there is a piece of Spanish shrapnel in his chest. He says that every once in a while it migrates, and gets closer to finally killing him. He compares it to the ticking of a clock, and says that the ticking has grown louder in his ears lately. Netta then asks if Charles knows about it.
Flint and his men arrive at Ocracoke, desiring to reclaim the Pirate Fleet. Flint and Teach decide to duel over command of the fleet. Netta watches nervously as the duel commences. At first, it seems like Flint has won by shooting Teach, and Netta is shocked. However, Teach rises from the ground, the bullet having only grazes his face. When they swordfight, Teach wounds Flint and is about to finish him off when Vane intervenes, driving Teach away before throwing down his sword. A hurt and outraged Teach tells Flint to take Vane and get off Ocracoke.
