Trivia
- Edward Kenway's model wears Duncan Walpole's Assassin robes, despite being in Thatch's crew at the time and not meeting Walpole until two years later after the Jacobite was wrecked.
- During the mission, Edward referred to British guards as George I's soldiers. It is anachronistic as the memory took place in 1713 and George became King of Great Britain in 1714.
