Biography[]
Season One[]
After the death of Singleton, Turk, Randall, and Morley remain suspicious of Flint. Randall says that you shouldn't steal, and Turk angrily says that Singleton wasn't a thief, and moves to stop two crew mates from urinating on Singleton's corpse. Morley stops him, telling him not to make obvious his suspicions[1].
Once back ashore, Turk plays a dice game with the Walrus Helmsman. When he sees Morley walking past, he rushes to join him. He warns Morley that Billy Bones has been asking around about them, and worriedly asks if he thinks Billy knows about them. Morley thinks Billy knows nothing, and adds that if they are smart, it will stay that way. Turk asks if Morley is backing out of the mutiny, reminding Morley that he knows of Flint's crimes, including lying about Singleton. When Morley doesn't respond, Turk insults him and leaves to return to his game with the Helmsman, but finds John Silver in his place. Silver says he has been talking to Randall about their suspicions about Flint, which are similar to Turk's. Silver then informs Billy that Turk, Morley and Randall are all that are left of the failed mutiny. Although Bones does not regard Turk and Randall as real threats, considering Randall's disability and Turk's strange beliefs about the captain, he is troubled by Morley[2].
As Turk has not been seen since the battle with the Spanish Man O' War, it is assumed that he died during the battle[3].
