Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End -

ritzy_cubanitaDec 20th, 2006 - 00:34:44

I certainly hope this third installment is as good as the first two films. I read somewhere that the first 50 pages of the script for POC World's End were leaked on the Internet. Someone had posted the script on MySpace.com but Disney took it down. If there is anyone out there who got a hold of it, please forward it to me at mrs_leibniz@yahoo.com I didn't get to read it before it was pulled.

On a separate note, it seems as though Elizabeth Swann and Jack Sparrow have developed a serious crush for each other. I'll be very surprised if they don't end up together. Perhaps there will be a really good reason why Elizabeth won't be able to marry Will Turner. We'll have to wait and see...

I think that Will and Elizabeth might turn out to be brother and sister!
We all enjoy Davy Jones played by Bill Nighy,and hope he will keep playing the part!

Hmmmm. I certainly do hope that the third is just as breathtaking as the last two! But if Jack and Elizabeth get together (although I wouldn't be surprised) I will die, and the same goes for Will and Elizabeth turning out to be brother and sister or cousins or anything else of the sort.

Will and Elizabeth Forever!!!!

I can't wait for the At worlds end.. it is going to be an amazing movie i am sure of it... I hope they don't go on to make a 4th and 5th movie.. because well Keira Knightley has already said she wouldn't do another movie and Orlando Bloom might not be used anymore.. and I think they should just end it with the third movie and have it go out as one of the greatest of all time.. I mean come on.. the 2nd movie made over a Billion dollars at the Box office.. The Best Movies Ever!!!

Personally I hear many rumors about the 3rd movie and I feel as if; Jack and Elizabeth will NOT be together because She will realize she a Will were meant to be together. The whole Elizabeth kissing Jack was more of a side plot to creat tension. In the end I think Will will marry Elizabeth, Jack and Barbossa will sail off with the pearl. Davy Jone will die and Will's father will choose not to be rescued and will captain the Flying Dutchman. This is what I think will happen in the next movie.

PS. They made such a big deal of Will loving Elizabeth so in the end Liz and Will will most likely end up with each other.

sorry if someone won´t like this my post ....but i am CERTAIN that jack and liz finally get together and will will be with his father coz now only to save his father is for him the most important thing and not liz who btw betrayed him(and maybe you´ll say that she did it only because she wanted to save will...it´s not truth because she would never kiss him if she didn ´t have any feelings for jack...and this can be indeed love as it was in the commentary said)...coz if she really loved and love him now,she would never betray him as she did...and will maybe will forgive her but now it is all very confusing...but if is the leaked script real, i don ´t see ANY REASON to let liz end up with will in the end really...for sure mates...:) i am so sorry i see it only this way...

hello Caribbean fans i know alota ya wanna know what happens in PotC 3 and i have the 1st 39 pages of the script and so...


Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 1
EXT. SINGAPORE HARBOR - WHARF - NIGHT
Asian junks jammed into raised, crisscrossing docks. Weird shadows cast by hanging lamps.
Amid the pylons, ELIZABETH SWANN pilots a small boat with a long pole. She moves through the maze of ropes, stairways, rafts and skiffs. It's Singapore harbor, a place of danger and decadence, mystery and magic.
Elizabeth sings softly and very slowly
ELIZABETH
(singing)
Came all ye young fellers that follows the sea
She waits, listening.
Silence.
Again she sings --
ELIZABETH
(CONT'D)
Came all ye young fellers that follows the sea
A VOICE IN THE DARK answers, completes the line
MAN(O.S)
(singing).
To my way haye, blow the man down
Elizabeth changes course, toward the voice. The singer is an ASIAN MAN crouched on a platform. Cleaning fish, guts up to his elbows. He raises his eyes to Elizabeth. Points.
Elizabeth pushes off in that direction. Sings the next line --
ELIZABETH
I've a deep water Clipper just in from Hong Kong
ANOTHER VOICE in the dark before her answers.
OLD MAN(O.S.)
Give us the time and we'll blow the man down
The OLD MAN washes clothes on floating dock; she gestures for Elizabeth to continue on her path. Elizabeth sings:

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 2
ELIZABETH
If you'll give me some grog, then I'll sing you a song
A DARK FIGURE stands on the dock before her.
DARK FIGURE (O.S.)
To my way, haye, blow the man down!
The Figure turns -- is revealed to be BARBOSSA. He is flanked by half a dozen Chiese SOLDIERS.
Barbossa nods, gestures at the boat - -
BARBOSSA
Bring him.
Pintel and Ragetti stand up in the boat. Reveal - -
A HOODED PRISONER, bound, between them in the boat. He is lifted out. They start to move forward - -
- - but one of the SOLDERS holds up a hand. Twirls a finger for the Prisoner to be turned away. The Soldier RIPS AWAY the Prisoner's shirt - -
Revealed on the Prisoner's back is an elaborate TATTOO of a DRAGON.
The Soldier nods - - this is the right guy. They start forward.
CLOSE ON: the Prisoner listens to the FOOTSTEPS around him, taking in his situation by sound - -
Suddenly the Prisoner pushes away from his guards, knocks down the Soldier. Pulls his bound hands down around his feet, bringing his hands to the front - - grabs a sword from the Soldier, and jumps up to a fighting pose - -
other Soldiers attack - - amazingly, the Prisoner, even blinded by the hood, and with both hands bound in front, is able to deflect their blades.
Barbossa rolls his eyes.
BARBOSSA
(O.S.)
Don't fight him one at a time. Rush him all at once, all of you.
Soldier rush the Prisoner and he is overwhelmed, falls to the dock. Elizabeth presses a knife under his chin, letting him feet it - -
ELIZABETH
You don't realize, do you? (MORE)

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 3
ELIZABETH
It doesn't matter to us if you are alive or dead.
The Prisoner lets go of the sword. He is dragged to his feet, and pushed along the dock - -
INT. TEMPLE - NIGHT
Barbossa leads the group into a modest temple. Plain floor and walls, bamboo tapestries.
Opposite him is CAPTAIN SAO FENG, notorious Chinese Pirate - - flanked by his PIRATE SOLDIER. Behind Sao Feng, sitting on a raised throne is a young, beautiful Chiese DRAGON LADY.
She says nothing - - and misses nothing.
Barbossa bows before the Dragon Lady.
BARBOSSA
My Lady. I am pleased to return and see you are well. I bring you a gift - - the treacherous Lang Si, who slayed your brother many years ago.
Soldier turn the Prisoner around - - revealing the dragon tattoo. Many of the soldiers react, scowl in anger - -
Sao Feng holds up a hand.
SAO FENG
The Lady thanks you.
BARBOSSA
And does the depth of her generosity extend to a gift in return? Perhaps the charts we discussed?
Sao Feng opens a satchel, revealing a set of charts inside.
SAO FENG
The charts are here. the Lady knows of your interest in Jack Sparrow, who is known to us as a scoundrel and evildoer and who himself has a price on his head.
Elizabeth pushes forward.
ELIZABETH
How much?
Sao Feng focuses on Elizabeth. Looks at Barbossa.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 4
SAO FENG
I command your choice in a traveling companion. I fear we chose the wrong payment.
BARBOSSA
The Wench is not for sale at this moment.
ELIZABETH
Wench?
Barbossa implores her to silence with a look.
BARBOSSA
The charts?
SAO FENG
I can tell you that Jack Sparrow resides in Davy Jone's Locker, which lies on the path to the Land of the Dead.
BARBOSSA
Just like Jack, to cheat death.
SAO FENG
He will suffer for eternity. Some say Death would be kinder. but Davy Jones never gives up what he takes from the sea.
BARBOSSA
Let me see the charts.
Captain Sao Feng smiles.
SAO FENG
How do we know your quest was successful? The Lady desire to look upon this coward.
Barbossa pulls a pistol. Swords are drawn in response. But - - Barbossa aims the pistol at the Prisoner.
BARBOSSA
The Lady desire revenge. Hand over the charts, or Lang Si dies and the Lady will be robbed of her satisfaction.
Pintel and Ragetti, on opposite sides of the Prisoner, edge away from the Prisoners.
Sao Feng regards Barbossa he plays with an intricate, Chinese knot pendant on a string around his neck.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 5
Shakes his head. he closes the satchel.
SAO FENG
No.
It's a stand-off. One of the Chinese soldiers notices something, stares at the Prisoner's back.
Sweat on his back. The Tattooed Dragon is melting.
The Soldier catches Sao Feng's eye. Shakes his head slightly.
Sao Feng raises an eyebrow.
SAO FENG
(CON'T)
Kill them.
His soldier swarm around him to attack - -
The prisoner, still hooded, dodges an attack. Elizabeth defends against two soldters, takes a sword deom one as he halls. She turns and SLASHES at the Prisoner - -
- - cutting the Prisoner's bonds and trowing him a sword.
The Prisoner yanks off the hood - -
- -it is WILL TURNER.
Elizabeth and Will smiles at each other. Then spin to fight back to back - -
Barbossa takes on Captain Feng as Elizabeth darts in the grab the Charts. She is cut off by two Guards. Will goes to her rescue - - and now there are a half dozen soldiers surrounding the Charts. Sao Feng makes note of this - -
The Dragon Lady watches it all, never flinching.
WILL
back! To the doors!
The group is quickly outnumbered and overwhelmed. Pintel and Ragetti cut a path to the door - -
EXT. SINGAPORE - DOCKS - NIGHT
Our heroes flee down ramps, up ladders, swing on ropes.
Elizabeth and Barbossa fight through an array of Pirates.
Pintel and Ragetti fight and also gleefully knock stuff over.
Will holds off a group, and then swings away on a rope - -
- - and comes face-to-face with Captain Sao Feng. Oh *beep*
The two of them cross blades.
They fight their way across a platform and CRASH through a window.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 6
INT. PLATFORM HUT - NIGHT
Will and Sao Feng stand. But a weird thing - - they don't continue the fight. Instead, Sao Feng pulls out - - the Charts.
He glances at Will.
WILL
I will deliver Jack Sparrow. There is no love loss between us.
SAO FENG
I wish you luck.(eyes a window) Shall we?
Will smiles, the two of them race toward the window on the other side of the shack - -
EXT. SINGAPORE HARBOR - NIGHT
- - Will and Sao Feng crash through the window, roll, and come up fighting. Will cuts Sao Feng's sword away, and races off. Sao Feng calls out - -
SAO FENG
I see hem! Follow me - - this way!
SOLDIER appear - - and Sao Feng leads them in the opposite direction Will took.
EXT. SINGAPORE - DACK - NIGHT
Will hooks back up with Barbossa and Elizabeth.
WILL
I have the Charts.
BARBOSSA
I'm impressed, Mister Turner.
WILL
You have us a ship?
BARBOSSA
Aye, we're got a ship.
They race around the corner, and revealed before them is - -
- - the HAI PENG, an old, decrepit Chiese JUNK with patched sails.
TIA DALMA is on board, and has the ship pulling away from the dock.
WILL
It's a junk!

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 7
BARBOSSA
Aye.
WILL
No, I mean, it really is junk..
BARBOSSA
She's a strong spirit. she'll take us to the edge of the world! Or perhaps you'
DAVY JONES
rather stay here?
SOLDIERS appear; they are crashed along the docks, leap onto the ship - - a narrow escape from Singapore!
EXT. HAI PENG - DECK - NIGHT
Will looks back - - CHINESE SAILORS line the docks, there are dozens of ships nearby, but none of them pursue.
ELIZABETH
Why aren't we being followed?
TIA DALMA
There is something on the seas that even the most staunch and bloodthirsty pirates have come to fear
INT. BECKETT'S OFFICE - DAY
Swann and Beckett at the desk, working through a sheaf of documents. Swann signs his name under Beckett's supervision, Beckett affixes a seal to each in turn.
Swann pauses as he leafs through a new stack.
SWANN
Attack authorizations? I thought pirate activity was at an ebb.
BECKETT
They're lying low for the moment. But the Brethren will gather soon enough, and then one final strike - -
SWANN
A Portuguese merchant vessel? This one is for ships of the French Royal Navy! You intend for the Flying Dutchman to wage war on other nations?
BECKETT
Our efforts simply secure the sea lanes for British commerce. What serves the Company, serves England. (taps the documents) Governor?
Swann hesitates then signs. He hates it.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 8
SWANN
If I didn't need the Company's help to find my daughter, I would report you to the King.
BECKETT
A fine illustration of the principle that rational self-interest yields mutual benefit.
Swann's angry pressure on the quill causes it to SNAP.
Beckett already has another one waiting.
EXT. DOCKS - DAY
Swann strides along the dock. A large steam engine has been installed. It starts with a DEAFENING ROAR, starting Swann. He takes some anger out on it with his cane.
Norrington catches his arm. They must SHOUT over the noise.
NORRINGTON
Governor!
SWANN
What is this thing?
NORRINGTON
Progress! The world is changing!
SWANN
What?
NORRINGTON
The world! Changing! For the - -
The engine shudders to an unintended and broken-sounded halt. Quiet now, no shouting necessary.
NORRINGTON (CONT'D)
For the better.
SWANN
How can you look at that and call the world better?
He gestures past Norrington - -
- - To where the Flying Dutchman lay at anchor, an abomination in broad day light. Encrusted sailors loading the bay.
Norrington has no answer.
SWANN (CONT'D)
Though it may have been flawed in action, ther was once a belief that it was beneficial and correct to consider the welfare of others!

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 9
Norrington doesn't TIA DALMA know where that came from. Suddenly, it all crashes down on Swann. He sags.
SWANN
(CONT'D)
I miss Elizabeth. I need to find what's become of her.
Norrington looks at him. Glances over his shoulder at the Flying Ducthman. Back to Swann. It takes an effort, but finally:
NORRINGTON
Sir I am sorry. At last report, Elizabeth was aboard the Black Pearl when she went down. All hands are presumed lost.
Swann looks back up at Norrington. He does not want to believe it. Norrington does not want to say it, but - -
NORRINGTON (CONT'D)
I was there.
Swann absorbs this.
SWANN
I must find a ship to England.
The steam engine ROARS back to life as he says this, his words nearly lost in the sound.
ANGLE - THE BALCONY, where Beckett stands, gazing down at the scence.
REVERSE - POV BECKETT, as the ROAR of the engine continues as Swann moves away from Norrington. Norrington catches his arm. A heated exchange, Swann bringing most of the heat.
Finally Swann turns and strides away. Norrington watches him, resigned and then looks up, directly into CAMERA, right at Beckett.
EXT. HAI PENG - DECK - NIGHT
Gibbs at the helm. Barbossa reads the charts. Gibbs tries to peek but Barbossa pulls them away.
BARBOSSA
Come about full, and set your heading due north.
Gibbs frowns, doesn't move the wheel. Barbossa raises an eyebrow.
GIBBS
We just spent three days and nights sailing due south.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 10
BARBOSSA
I don't have a need of you questioning my orders, Mister Gibbs.
GIBBS
Aye, you give the orders, now, is that how it is?
Will cuts in between them.
WILL
Gibbs, by my authority, you're to follow the heading suggested by Mister Barbossa, in his official capacity of - - navigator.
Barbossa gives Gibbs as angelic smile. Gibbs turns the wheel.
WILL (CONT'D)
Mister Barbossa On the charts, I was struck by a curious phrase. 'Capsized into the mirrored sea, the sunrise sets at the flash of green.' Do you care to speculate on that for me?
BARBOSSA
Ever gazed upon the green flash, Mister Gibbs?
GIBBS
I reckon I've seen my share.(explains, for Will's benefit) It's quite a sight. Happens at the last glimpse of sunset, on rare occasions, a green flash shoots up. Some go their whole lives and never see it, many claim to have seen it who never have. Sailors say it signals when a soul comes back to this world from the dead.
WILL
(to Barbossa) What are the implications to our journey?
BARBOSSA
I reckon it will Beckett clear enough when the time comes.
Will
I am interested in your present day speculations.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 11
BARBOSSA
I reckon I'll keep my speculations to myself for now, and that way you'll have good reason to keep me around the entire journey.
GIBBS
A prudent strategy, says I.
Barbossa glares at Gibbs. Will decides not to push the matter.
Will
Carry on, then.
Barbossa bows and turns away. Nearby, Pintel and Ragetti swab the deck, obviously listening in. As they speak, FLAKES OF SNOW start to drop down around them.
Ragetti leans over to Pintel as if he has a great secret.
RAGETTI
It's a riddle.
PINTEL
I know it's a riddle. They know it's a riddle. They don't know what the riddle mean. I don't like riddles.
RAGETTI
Riddles are fun. 'Capsized into the mirrored sea, the sunrise sets'
PINTEL
Riddles are not fun! The way it always works is some poor bloke don't understand what it means, and then he ends up dead he realizes no, I wasn't supposed to listen to the singsing of the sirens, I wasn't supposed to take the pot o'gold and make that fourth wish, but by then it's too late and he dies in a horrible and ironical manner, and in this case, you and I be the poor bloke!
RAGETTI
Riddle are fun.
PINTEL
Right, it's all fun and games 'til somebody loses an eye - -
Pintel goes pale, realizes what he has just said.
Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 12
RAGETTI
Now, there was no call to get all personal!
PINTEL
I didn't mean it!
They are interrupted SCRAPING SOUND along the keel of the boat. Pintel and Ragetti look out
EXT. OCEAN - DAY
Where a huge ICEBERG floats past in the water. The Hai Peng sails amid the snow and icebergs, beneath white-blue sheen of glaciers.
PINTEL
Where on God's green earth is he taking us?
EXT. HAT PENG - DECK - NIGHT
Tia Dalma measures out rum to the crew. Barbossa downs his right away.
Gibbs nurses his. Elizabeth cups her hands around hers as if it will keep her warm.
TIA DALMA
We sail into dangerous waters together. I wonder which of you are up to the task? You will survive if your motives are strong.
She turns to Will.
TIA DALMA (O.S.)
What brings you on this voyage?
WILL
There is what a man can do, and what a man can't do. Jack Sparrow died saving my life. I can't leave it at that.
ON ELIZABETH - - she knows that's not true, but keeps it to herself. Tia Dalma turns to Barbossa.
Barbossa answers with great conviction and sincerity and a lowered head:
BARBOSSA
To atone for my many and varied sins, ma'am.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 13
Gibbs laughs. Barbossa looks hurt.
BARBOSSA(CONT'D)
And because you kindly asked me to come on this voyage, ma'am.(explains) Seeing as she did me the great service of restoring my life, I am of course overcome with gratitude, and offer to Beckett of service in any way I can.
GIBBS
I wondered about that. How exactly were you delivered from your fate?
Barbossa smiles, sticks his knife into an apple slice, bites into it and chews. Silence is his only answer.
TIA DALMA
And you, Elizabeth? What lies in your heart on this trip?
Elizabeth jerks her head at the word 'lies' Will watches her.
She condiders, and finally settles on:
ELIZABETH
Jack Sparrow did not deserve the fate the world gave him.
TIA DALMA
Ah, and what man does?
ELIZABETH
To punish the wicked, I leave as God's work. But at least we can try to reward the good, don't you think? (beat) What about you, Tia Dalma? What makes you risk such a dangerous journey?
TIA DALMA
The world is a lesser place without Jack Sparrow.
ELIZABETH
To be sure. But that doesn't answer the question, does it?
WILL
Leaving me all the more curious as to your response.
Tia Dalma looks slyly between them. She answers enigmatically:

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 14
TIA DALMA
I am owed many debts, with Jack Sparrow not the least among the debtors. I can hardly collect from a man not of this world.
EXT. HAI PENG - DECK - NIGHT
Elizabeth, lost in thought. has moved away from the others.
Will comes up behind her.
WILL
It must be a terrible secret indeed, for you to let it come between us.
ELIZABETH
Nothing has come between us. But I do worry I will not live up to what you deserve.
Will donesn't like the sound of that.
WILL
As do I with you. Every day. I suspect there is more that troubles you.
ELIZABETH
My heart is troubled for the same reason yours is. If we can rescue Jack, all will be well.
Will doesn't know how to take that. He presumes - - wrongly - - that she is in love with Jack, and hopes to get him back.
WILL
This is a voyage of resolution, then.
Elizabeth nods. Looks out past the rigging - -
- - the ocean before them is a mirror, stars above and below.
ELIZABETH
Like sailing into the night sky. (beat) Such a sight is what gave rise to tales and superstitions of the end of the world, where the ocean drops off into nothingness.
Barbossa joins them at the railing, pleased.
BARBOSSA
Ah, we're good and lost now.
ELIZABETH
Lost?

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 15
BARBOSSA
Aye, for certain you have to be lost, to find a place as can't Be found. Elseways everyone would know where it was, wouldn't they?
WILL
Lost or crazy.
BARBOSSA
Or why not both?
Barbossa laughs. Then they hear a distant ROAR.
The SOUND of RAGING WATER gets LOUDER. The ship TURNS on its own, is swept toward the sound - -
GIBBS
Hard a-port! Gather way and keep her trim!
Pirates scurry to save the ship.
Tia Dalma appears on deck. Unlike those around her, she is calm and serene.
She tosses her crab claws down onto a barrel head. Learns over them and smiles.
She murmurs an INCANATION. Moves the claws around in an intricate, repeating pattern.
Elizabeth and Will stare at her - - what is she doing? The ROAR is now OVERWHELMING; Elizabeth turns away, sees - -
ANGLE - FROM BELOW. a huge WATERFALL is revealed - - it looks to be THE EDGE OF THE WORLD.
Elizabeth whirls to Barbossa.
ELIZABETH
You're a fiend! You have led us to our doom!
BARBOSSA
Now don't be so unkind, my child after all, ye might not survive the trip these may be the last friendly words you hear
He laughs. The prow of the Hai Pan sticks out into the air and then the entire ship TILT DOWN
Elizabeth screams Barbossa laughs louder all the Pirates scream as the ship plummets down into - -

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 16
BLACKNESS.
And SILENCE.
Out of the silence comes SINGING and LAUGHTER various pirate voices, distant, eerie 'Yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me'
And just as quickly as they came, the voice FADE, to be replaced again by SILENCE
FADE UP ON:
A WHITE HOT SUN burns in a cloudless blue sky.
EXT. DESERT - DAY.
JACK SPARROW sits with his head lowered, alone in the dunes of a vant desert. A dry wind blows. This is Jack's purgatory.
sand in all directions, endless.
Jack drags himself to his feet.
he staggers to a rope lying in the sand. Picks it up and turns, the rope over his back. He leans forward and PULLS - -
His feet dig into the sand; he drives forward but goes nowhere. The rope angles up behind him; Jack pulls but makes no progress, gradually sinking down
COME AROUND TO REVEAL: at the other end of the rope is the Black Pearl. Towering above him, stranded in the middle of the vast desert.
Jack keeps tugging, to no avail.
Nearby are several SMOOTH ROUND STONES. Weirdly, the stones begin to rock back and forth, like eggs hatching. Cracks appear and the stones transform into crabs.
One of the crabs turns toward Jack, watching him. Clicks, annoying, like it's laughing.
JACK SPARROW
Perfect. What would my torment be without freaky crabs here to mock me?
Jack grabs a handful of sand and flings it. the crabs flinch back. Jack collapses into the sand.
JACK SPARROW (CONT'D)
I'm talking to a crab.
The crab scuttles forward looks at Jack. Scuttles sideways, looks at the ship.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 17
The crab scuttles away
EXT. DESERT - DAY
Jack Sparrow lays in the sand. Baking in the sun, exhausted.
A SHADOW MOVES OVER HIM - -
Jack blinks, looks up.
ANGLE - ABOVE JACK, the PROW of the Black Pearl. Moving.
Jack stand up, sees - - the Black Pearl drifts, floats across the sand, carried on the back of a thousand chittering crabs.
Jack raises an eyebrow.
JACK SPARROW(CONT'D)
Strange.
EXT. DESERT - SHORE - DAY
In the water float broken bits of wreckage, all that is left of the hai Peng. Pintel and Ragetti share a wooden plank as the paddle. Ragetti wears a wide grin.
PINTEL
Lestways it wasn't us what wrecked the ship this time - - what is it with you?
Ragetti cowers, the grin disappears.
RAGETTI
I thought it was fun.
PINTEL
It wasn't fun! (tries to scowl, gives up) Maybe a little, the tilting over part - -
RAGETTI
- - and the big splash at the end!
Pintel splashes him, Ragetti splashes back. Elizabeth, Will, Barbossa, Gibbs, Tia Dalma pull themselves onto shore.
GIBBS
Truly a god-forsaken place.
ELIZABETH
How do we find him?

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 18
BARBOSSA
He's here. Every sailor what Davy Jones has banished to the depths is here, Somewhere.
WILL
And why should we bother? Now were trapped. Just like him.
TIA DALMA
Jack Sparrow is closer than you think.
All eyes turn to Tia Dalma. Behind her, an amazing sight - -
JACK SPARROW APPEARS in the sky, at the bow of the Black Pearl, riding over the desert sand, toward the water. Carried on the back of ten thousand crabs.
GIBBS
Well I'll be keel-hauled and dipped in sheep *beep* Jack!
Jack waves. Grabs a rope, swings down onto the sand.
JACK SPARROW
Thank goodness I've found you! Is everybody all right?
the ship keeps going behind him, toward the water. Jack treats it like the most normal thing in the world.
JACK SPARROW(CONT'D)
Will! Gibbs! Pintel and, uh, you with the one eye Tia Dalma, lovely as ever. (come to Barbossa) Now here's a surprise.
BARBOSSA
Jack, Jack it does me heart good to see you halfway along the path to hell
He grabs Jack, puts a knife to Jack's throat.
BARBOSSA
(CONT'D)
I've a mind to take you the rest of the way! (low) It's not far, I can attest to that!
ELIZABETH
Stop! We're here to rescue him.
Jack turns as Elizabeth's voice. Focuses on her. Pushes Barbossa aside, unconcerned.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 19
Barbossa frowns at being suddenly ignored.
JACK SPARROW
Dear Elizabeth. You came to rescue me. How uncommonly generous of you.
Will watches the exchange closely.
ELIZABETH
In payment for your heroic actions, in saving us all from the Kraken. Our score is level.
JACK SPARROW
It is now? Level.
Jack pointedly looks out at the desert. Does a three-sixty turn as he makes a 'wind blowing over the sand' sound.
JACK SPARROW(CONT'D)
I don't feel rescued.(with some venom) And so the score is decidedly not level.
BARBOSSA
I guess you could look at it as we're in the midst of the rescue operation, at the moment.
JACK SPARROW
Looks to me as if the rescuers are in need of rescuing. And who says I want to be rescued, anyway?
Jack strides away, Everyone is incredulous.
WILL
You're coming with us. We've gone through too much trouble.
Jack waves him away.
WILL(CONT'D)
Jack!
JACK SPARROW
(turns) Fact is, I don't. I'm perfectly happy. Here. It's very (tries to think of something good) Simple.
Will and Barbossa exchange a look.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 20
JACK SPARROW(CONT'D)
But if I do agree to help you out of this mess. it shall be as nothing less than Captain.
Barbossa shakes his head.
BARBOSSA
I'm Captain on the return voyage.
JACK SPARROW
Then you shouldn't have misplaced your ship.
BARBOSSA
I see my ship - - right there.
He points at the Black Pearl. Jack looks in the direction of the Black Pearl. Squints, covers his eyes, pointedly searching, as if he can't see Barbossa's ship. Keeps squinting, keeps searching.
Barbossa sighs, losing his patience.
Jack squints some more, bobs up and down on his toes, keeps searching - -
BARBOSSA
(CONT'D)
All right! Only I knows the route home.
JACK SPARROW
That would make you - - the navigator.
BARBOSSA
Captain.
JACK SPARROW
Cook?
BARBOSSA
Captain.
JACK SPARROW
Cockswain.
Will steps between the two.
WILL
Enough. Jack is rightfully Captain of his ship.
Will draws his sword and slashes it to within a millimeter of Jack's eye - -

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 21
- - then whirls and stops it a millimeter from Barbossa's eys.
WILL(CONT'D)
(Will draws his sword) All decisions subject to my approval. Understood?
JACK SPARROW
As Captain, I am pleased to name as First Mate Master Barbossa.
WILL
(raises an eyebrow at Barbossa) Agreed?
BARBOSSA
I can deal with First Mate. (grins) It worked out fine for me late time.
Barbossa holds out his hand. Jack looks at it, grimaces.
BARBOSSA
(CONT'D)
An uneasy alliance?
JACK SPARROW
An unholy one.
EXT. BLACK PEARL
Sailing the darkness between worlds.
Below the surface of the water, bodies float past, each in its current.
Pintel and Ragetti watch over the side.
PINTEL
Eerie.
RAGETTI
(musing) I wonder what would happen if you dropped a cannonball on one of 'em.
(They look at each other) - - let's find out! (Pintel starts to hunt for a cannonball.)
Barbossa, walking past, fixes them with a stern look.
Sheepishly, they return to just looking over the rail.
PINTEL
Be disrespectful, it would.
Ragetti spots something ahead: a small boat, coming toward them, lit by a lantern's glow.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 22
RAGETTI
Another boat coming.
Elizabeth glances out at it, then peers more closely.
She recognizes the passenger.
ELIZABETH
Father! Here! Look here!
Swann glances over.
SWANN
Elizabeth!(concern) Are you dead?
ELIZABETH
No.
Swann nods at that. Elizabeth has to move along the rail of the Pearl, toward the starn, to keep pace with him.
SWANN
I think I am.
ELIZABETH
How?
SWANN
(has trouble recalling) Beckett? He's war? He's waiting for the pirates to gather and How odd. At the time, it seemed so important.
ELIZABETH
Come aboard! (to the others) Cast out a line! (to Swann) Come back with us!
Crewmen prepare a line, too slowly for Elizabeth. She grabs it from them, casts it out. It lands neatly in Swann's boat, but he makes no move toward it. Due to the action of the two vessels passing, it begins to slip toward the edge of the boat.
ELIZABETH(CONT'D)
Take the line!
SWANN
(suddenly; this is important) Elizabeth.
She gives him her full attention.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 23
SWANN(CONT'D)
When I would reprimand you to obey the rules, it was because I did not want you to ever be unhappy. But I should have recognized in your willfulness your courage. I am proud of you, Elizabeth.
The line is about to slip from Swann's boat.
ELIZABETH
The line! Catch the line!
The end of the line falls into the water.
ELIZABETH(CONT'D)
Father!
His boat is near the aft of the Pearl.
ELIZABETH
(CONT'D)
Come back with us! Please! I won't let you go!
She climbs the rail. Will gets there slightly, ahead of Jack to haul her back.
SWANN
I'll give your love to your mother, then, shall I?
Elizabeth stares after him; nods slightly, accepting.
The light of the boat's lantern is swallowed up by the darkness.
She looks back to the others.
ELIZABETH
Beckett is waiting for the pirates to gather.
BARBOSSA
The Brethren.
ELIZABETH
We have to warn them. he has to die.
She move away. Will, Barbossa and Jack watch her go.
JACK SPARROW
I personally have no reservations about that plan.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 24
EXT. BLACK PEARL - MAIN DECK - SUNSET
Barbossa watches the sun hover over the horizon.
BARBOSSA
It's not getting to the land of the dead is the problem, so much as getting away.
Tia Dalma has wrapped herself in the rigging.
TIA DALMA
I feel it in my soul, if we do not escape this night, we will sail trackless seas, under starless skies, to our doom.
Gibbs, Elizabeth and Will are gathered around the charts Jack sits curled like a cat on one of the sails.
GIBBS
There's a cheery thought.
JACK SPARROW
At least our demise sounds poetic.
BARBOSSA
Aye, the charts give us a day to sail free.
Pintel and Ragetti sit opposite each other on a table.
Ragetti's wooden eye is out, rolling on the table with the sway of the ship.
Elizabeth reads from the charts.
ELIZABETH
'Up is down on the mirrored sea, when sun rise sets at the flash of green.'
WILL
Flash of green?
BARBOSSA
On rare occasions, when the sun sets, there is a green flash on the horizon. they say - -
GIBBS/PINTEL
... that's the only time a soul can transition between worlds.
Gibbs and Pintel glare at each other, the two storytellers in competition.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 25
PINTEL
(to Ragetti ) Thinks he knows everything.
GIBBS
(to Jack) Thinks he knows everything.
Jack idly watches as Ragetti's eye roll across the table;
ship moving with the waves
Jack has a sudden idea. Gets up, watches the eye. His movement is enough to draw the attention of the others.
JACK SPARROW
Hmn. When sunrise sets. Now there's a notion.
He moves over the railing at port. Everyone follows the ship tilts that way a little. Jack thinks - -
Jack suddenly races to the starboard side. Everyone follows - -
what is he up to? He looks out at the sunset. Suddenly seems to see something on the port side.
JACK SPARROW (CONT'D)
There, it moved!
ELIZABETH
What?
WILL
I don't see anything - -
But Jack runs across, and everyone follows, and the ship tilts a little more. Jack goes the other way, and Gibbs figures it out.
GIBBS
He's rocking the ship.
BARBOSSA
Aye, he's onto it. All hands together!
GIBBS
Time it with each swell!

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 26
Jack races back to port. Then to starboard. The ship tilts back and forth - -
PINTEL
He's going to tip us over!
Ragetti already has a rope ready.
RAGETTI
We tie each other to the mast, upside down, so we'll be right side up when the boat flips!
Pintel thinks about it. Thinks about it Thinks about it - -
PINTEL
Good idea!
Will gets to the rail as the ship tilts, look out - -
The sun SINKS into the sea, a small orange flam left - -
- - Black pearl tilts further - -
They rock the Black Pearl completely over; waves fill the sails and cause the ship to continue to roll - -
CAMERA MOVES AROUND THE ROLLING SHIP, UNDERWATER - -
Chains, cannons, small objects fall down toward the depths.
Jack, Will, Elizabeth, Barbossa, Gibbs hold on, flat down away from the ship.
Pintel and Ragetti hold their breaths, cheeks bulging.
- - CAMERA TURNS, SO THE BALCK PEARL IS RIGHT SIDE UP - -
ON THE HORIZON, the FLASH OF GREEN shoots up!
AND SUDDENLY - -
THWUMP!
All of the water FALLS, dropping down onto the deck. The objects fall, the people fall, SLAMMING on to the deck.
The water washs away, and the Black Pearl bobs on the sea.
GIBBS
Blue skies! Mercy!
Will looks over - -
- - and now it's SUNRISE back in our world.
Pintel and Ragetti hang upside down, tied together to the mast.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 27
PINTEL
This was your idea, and the fact that I went along does not make you any less stupid.
RAGETTI
Well it don't make you no more smart neither.
PINTEL
Yes it does, my lack of stupid ideas makes me smarter by omission.
Elizabeth marvels at her clothes as the water drops away - -
they are dry.
ELIZABETH
Impossible.
Barbossa goes to the rail, squints at the horizon smile.
BARBOSSA
Feast on it, gents. That there is a sunrise.
GIBBS
Hah! Take what you can - -
JACK SPARROW
Give nothing back!
A brief moment of celebration as everyone grin at each other
Then EVERYBODY instantly draws their pistols at once, and point them each other - -
Will at Barbossa - -
Barbossa at Jack - -
Gibbs at Barbossa - -
Elizabeth at Jack - -
Jack at Will, draws a second pistol, at Barbossa - -
Barbossa draws a second pistol, at Gibbs - -
It's a moment everyone has been preparing for. A beat - -
And then EVERYBODY LAUGHS. They can't help but grin at themselves, lower their pistols
Suddenly the LAUGHTER STOPS and the pistols are raised again.
Pintel and Ragetti work to get themselves free of the mast.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 28
PINTEL
Get united, and find us our pistols! Hurry!
RAGETTI
Who would we point it at?
Barbossa takes charge.
BARBOSSA
All right, then. The Pirate Captains are gathering. They will meet at the hidden, and some say it might be mythical, Shipwreck Cove.
WILL
Aye.
BARBOSSA
Honest man that I am, I reveal to you now< I am the person what called the Gathering of the Brethren. Jack, you nad I are going there, and they'll be no arguing the point. be there a person among us who will contest this path?
Everyone looks at each other.
JACK SPARROW
Safety in numbers. Excellent idea. Agreed.
Jack drops his pistol. Barbossa is surprised, suspicious.
Turns to Elizabeth.
ELIZABETH
You know I am against those who murdered my father. If this gathering is needed to fight them - - I want to be there, Agreed.
She lower her pistol. Jack looks to Will, curious wht he will do.
TIA DALMA
What say you, Will Turner? Your heart does not lie on this path?
Will regards the situation, calculating.
WILL
You're wrong. My heart is with Elizabeth. but it's a long journey. We'll need to stop and resupply.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 29
Will lowers his pistol. Jack looks at him, surprised - - he expected more of a fight.
JACK SPARROW
We're all agreed, then.
Jack and Barbossa lower their guns - -
- - just as Pintel and Ragetti get free, scramble to their feet, find their guns and pull them out. They can do no better than to point them at each other.
PINTEL/RAGETTI
AGREED!
EXT. FLYING DUTCHMAN - HELM - DAY
Davy Jones at the helm of his cursed ship of bones. Norrington stares out at - -
The aftermath of a battle; a Portuguese merchant ship. Scared sailors gathered on deck.
DAVY JONES
More recruits for your Armada.
NORRINGTON
Yes.
DAVY JONES
I have no choice in these events. But I am curious - - what do you tell yourself? What reason can you find in your heart - - to be a pawn?
NORRINGTON
Is that your opinion? You think I am a pawn.
DAVY JONES
I expect Governer Swann would agree.
Mercer arrives, reports.
MERCER
Scuttle the ship, sir? There's a fair amount of damage.
NORRINGTON
No. Assign enough men to sail her. Navigate behind us. Lock the crew in chains. Starve the fight out of them then put them to work.
Mercer salutes, steps away.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 30
DAVY JONES
It is the essential nature of a pawn to not know he is a pawn.
NORRINGTON
Explain yourself. Why do you mention swann?
DAVY JONES
I am not at liberty to say, sir.
Jones indicates - - Mercer is too close. Norrington looks worried, looks at Davy Jones questioningly.
DAVY JONES(CONT'D)
(a whisper) Ask Wyvern.
INT. FLYING DUTCHMAN - HOLD - DAY
Norrington comes down a flight of stairs. Spooky and dark;
only tiny shafts of light shine down. Norrington carries a lantern.
The SOUND of flies BUZZING. he moves along the hull. The hull move - - it Wyvern's face, encrusted into the ship.
NORRINGTON
Jones sent me.
WYVERN
Scream bloody murder.
Wyvern looks to his right and disappears. Norrington moves in that direction. The Sound of flies BUZZING gets loauder.
Norrington keeps moving and comes upon wyvern again.
Wyvern raises a hand and point - -
Indicates stacked barrels. Norrington knocks them away, looks up - -
EXT. FLYING DUTCHMAN - DECK - DAY
Norrington hangs onto the ships rails. Catches his breath.
Davy Jones is suddenly at his side.
NORRINGTON
Who did it?
DAVY JONES
I do not know. Perhaps you.
NORRINGTON
And perhaps you.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 31
Norrington looks out, sees: innocent sailors are locked in chains, become conscripts, slaves.
DAVY JONES
What will you do?
NORRINGTON
Cut him down, Bury him at sea.
DAVY JONES
Is that all? You will continue in this madness?
NORRINGTON
That is all. I will not question my orders. I violated my duty once. My life has been returned to me, I will not lose it again!
ANGLE - following Norrington, and REVEAL:
EXT. CARIBBEAN SEA - DAY
- - following the Flying Ducthman, are now a HALF-DOZEN SHIPS under Norrington's command.
The Armada grows...
EXT. BLACK SAND ISLAND - DAY
The Black Pearl weighs anchor outside the reef. Marty climbs to a sentry position on the rocks, holds a pistol, keeps watch.
ON THE BEACH, a landing party moves away from longboats.
Jack, Barbossa and Will, with bottles and flasks strung across their bodies.
Pintel and Ragetti appear, each with three empty casks turtled up on their backs, two more barrels carried between them.
They climb over some rocks, Jack stops. stares at - -
THE KRAKEN - - dead, the huge creature sprawled across a long length of beach. Bleached White skin against the black sand.
Past it, the sun sets in a final golden blaze of glory.
ON THE BEACH near the Kraken, the group approaches. Pintel and Ragetti kick, taunt the monster.
PINTEL
Ahh, not so tough now, are you? Stupid fish, serves you right!

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 32
RAGETTI
(giggles)
Serves you right!
Jack stares into one huge round dead eye. Jack is oddly moved, a sad expression on his face.
JACK SPARROW
Magnificent creature. Such a shame.
WILL
How can you say that? It tried to Kill you.
Pintel and Ragetti each picked up a tentacle and are slapping one another.
JACK SPARROW
Still, a magnificent creature.
Will notices: slash marks and many harpoons still stuck deep into the body. Will pulls out one of the harpoons.
WILL
It doesn't make sense. This was their best weapon.
BARBOSSA
It couldn't be controlled so it was killed.
Jack takes off his hat, bow his head.
JACK SPARROW
There aren't many of the true myths left. And now there's one less in the world.
Jack turns away. Will and Barbossa follows. They move past Pintel and Ragetti, who pose on top of one of the long tentacle arms - -
PINTEL
Pintel and Ragetti! Kraken slayers!
RAGETTI
Kraken slayers!
Ragetti grins - - then is hit with an idea so huge he has to sit down. The vision of it dances before his eyes.
RAGETTI(CONT'D)
Pintel! I just had a thought.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 33
PINTEL
(fascinated) What's that like?
RAGETTI
I bet folk would pay a shilling to see this! They would. And a second shilling for a sketch of em sitting atop!
Pintel thinks a moment is overwhelmed by the notion.
PINTEL
We could carve mini true Krakens out of coconut and sell those, too!
RAGETTI
We'd be rich, and wouldn't have to pirate no more.
PINTEL
Aye! And I could afford to buy you a real fake glass eye, like I always wanted to.
Ragetti is moved to speechlessness. The two pirates are so overcome they don't notice behind them - -
Marty, on the distant rocks, waving and shouting - -
EXT. BALCK SAND ISLAND - SPRING - DAY
Will, Jack and Barbossa climbs, following a trickling stream push through the jungle to - -
A freshwater SPRING, source of the stream. Unfortunately, floating face down in the spring is a dead man.
JACK SPARROW
How unfortunate.
WILL
For him.
JACK SPARROW
For us. The water is sure to be fouled.
Ragetti sloshes into the water, turns over the body. Pintel frowns - -
PINTEL
Hey, I seen that face before!
It's a CHINESE PIRATE, throat slit. One of the soldiers confronted in Singapore.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 34
Jack frowns. His eyes go down - - WIDEN to reveal a blade at his throat. WIDEN MORE to reveal Barbossa holding it.
JACK SPARROW
Let's not be hasty - -
BARBOSSA
I feel an itch and a twitch between my shoulder blades. That wouldn't be you planning to stab main the back, would it?
JACK SPARROW
Barbossa, old dear, your feeble accusation wouldn't be trying to hide a plan to double cross me, now would it?
Barbossa frowns, looks down. WIDEN to reveal Jack's blade is at Barbossa 's throat.
BARBOSSA
Perhaps you're right and we best not jump to any conclusions - -
Will has moved past them, pushed through the jungle, looking back and look out to sea.
WILL
There! Look!
Blades still at each others throats, Jack spins Barbossa around and look out - -
ON THE BEACH far below, Marty jumps up and down, waving his arms and pointing - -
Barbossa spins Jack around so he can look out - -
OUT PAST THE REEF floats the Black Pearl and next to it a Chinese fighting ship, the EMPRESS.
EXT. BLACK PEARL - MAIN DECK - LATER
The landing party climbs on deck.
CHINESE PIRATE - - too many to fight - - have taken over the Pearl. They've stripped the crew of their weapons. Several PIRATES, from both sides, are dead.
Elizabeth is held by TWO GUARDS. One of them rubs a swelling eye, the other has a bloodly lip.
WILL
get your hands off her!

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 35
The Guards release her as she pulls away.
ELIZABETH
Will, I'm sorry. There were too many.
Barbossa eyes Jack suspiciously.
BARBOSSA
I wonder mightily how this little event came to pass?
JACK SPARROW
(right back) It's a pickle to be sure. Why don't you give me your best guess?
The Chinese pirates part, revealing: Captain Sao Feng.
Captain Feng steps forward, nods to Will - - a repeat of the gesture in Singapore.
WILL
You said no one would be killed.
SAO FENG
Several of my men became overly enthusiastic in battle, for which I apologize.
Barbossa and Jack are amazed.
BARBOSSA
The whelp. Who'd've thought?
A grim smile from Will.
WILL
I needed the Black Pearl. It's the only ship that can outrun the Dutchman. So It's the only ship as can catch the Dutchman. (beat) Forgive me. Jack, if I offer you no apology.
JACK SPARROW
Lack of apology accepted.
ELIZABETH
You didn't rescue Jack. You rescued the ship.
WILL
Jack had you to worry for him, no need to add my efforts.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 36
BARBOSSA
(to Sao Feng) What price did the boy pay?
Jack looks worried.
SAO FENG
He gets the ship, and a few men needed to crew her. In exchange I take custody of Captain Jack Sparrow.
That's what Jack was worried about.
JACK SPARROW
Will, my friend, dare I say, my brother - - have you taken into consideration all that I have done? Or let's say, half of it? I did sane your life. (a glance at Elizabeth) Can you remind him?
Will pulls his sword, puts the blade to his heart, pushes Jack away from Elizabeth.
WILL
Shut up. You've had your eye on her since you first saw her.
JACK SPARROW
Well, look at her!
Will leans close to Jack, ready to run him through.
WILL
I will not see her give her heart to a man who has none.
ELIZABETH
Will - - stop this. There is nothing between us.
WILL
(a smile) Then what are you afraid of?.
ELIZABETH
I fear you will do something you will regret.
JACK SPARROW
Listen to her; boy. She knows your heart better than you know hers.
Will stares at Jack, imagining how much he would enjoy to killing him.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 37
SAO FENG
We made a deal.
Will decides.
WILL
Much as I enjoy the thought of running you through I will not deny Sao Feng and the Lady their revenge.
JACK SPARROW
So you paid them to come fight for you? Will, I'm impressed.
Will lowers his sword.
WILL
Who was it who told me, never plan on a fair flight?
JACK SPARROW
That was me. How much? I'm curious to know my worth, on the open market.
WILL
Five doubloons each.
Jack brightens, turns to Sao Feng.
JACK SPARROW
I offer ten doubloons each.
Sao Feng raises an eyebrow. The Chinese pirates look very interested.
Will protests - -
WILL
You don't have ten doubloons each!
JACK SPARROW
Ah, but my word is gold.
And then flashes his teeth. Will looks to Sao Feng, who shrugs.
Looks like he can be bought. Will counters - -
WILL
I'll pay twenty each!
Sao Feng looks between the two. Smiles. He has a bidding war going now.
JACK SPARROW
Thirty doubloons.
Barbossa leans over to Jack.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 38
BARBOSSA
Plus the girl.
JACK SPARROW
Plus the girl
ELIZABETH
What?
Sao Feng looks Elizabeth up and down, Likes what he sees.
SAO FENG
(to Will) Do you also offer the girl?
WILL
Never!
Sao Feng turns to back to Jack.
SAO FENG
Conditions?
JACK SPARROW
You're not to kill her, and you're to deliver her back to us at Shipwreck Cove.
SAO FENG
I should be finished with her by then.
JACK SPARROW
Fair enough. Deal.
SAO FENG
Deal.
Will is stunned. Elizabeth is outrages. The Chinese Pirates grab Elizabeth, hold Will back.
WILL
What about your revenge?
SAO FENG
Let me weigh the choice. The sweet satisfaction of revenge or a maiden as beautiful, and untamed as the sea itself?
Shakes his head - - it's not really a choice. Elizabeth is dragged past. Jack stops her a moment.
JACK SPARROW
I want you to know, Elizabeth - - I feel very ambivalent about this.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 39
She spits at him - - and is dragged away.
EXT. BALCK PEARL - DECK - LATER
The Chinese soldiers back on the Empress. Sao Feng, rope in hand, is ready to swing back over to his ship.
SAO FENG
I cannot keep pace with the Black Pearl.
JACK SPARROW
We should not sail together, in any case. Will you take the northern or southern routs?
SAO FENG
The North is longer and more treacherous (smiles) I will take it With my new captive on board, I have no incentive to hurry.
Jack forces a smile. Sao Feng swings away, across to the Empress. Will, held captive by Pintel and Ragetti , stares across at the ship. An arm pulls him back - -
It's Barbossa.
BARBOSSA
Lock him in the brig.
DISSOLVE TO:
EXT. CARIBBEAN SEA - EVENING
A spectacular storm front on the horizon. The Chinese junk EMPRESS sails to avoid it, toward a bright FULL MOON, hanging just over the water.
INT. THE EMPRESS - CAPTAIN'S CABIN - NIGHT
Hanging silks and pillows, lit by candlelight, and with the presence of three Chinese MAIDANS - - it is a floating harem.
Elizabeth is stunning in a traditional Chinese silk dress, embroidered, with mandarin collar. Final adjustments are made by the Maidens.
Sao Feng enters. Stares at Elizabeth with open admiration.
He recites an ancient Chinese poem of beauty:
SAO FENG
You willow shoots. (MORE)

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 40
SAO FENG(CONT'D)
Touching, brushing, the water. Of the garden pool.
Sao Feng dismisses the Maidens. he approaches Elizabeth.
SAO FENG(CONT'D)
When I first saw you I thought you might be Calypso, the Goddess of the seas.
ELIZABETH
And now?
SAO FENG
I am certain. Every word you say, every action you take confirms it.
ELIZABETH
If I am the Goddess of the seas, then I would command you to set me free.
SAO FENG
Ah. so you don't not know the story. There was a time when the seas were unpredictable, angry. Calypso fell in love with a sailor, and granted him immortality. Also a ship, to rescue the souls of drowned
Elizabeth of course knows the name. Sao Feng mistakes her recognition for disbelier.
SAO FENG(CONT'D)
Do not doubt me, for this is the same Davy Jones who pursues us now.
ELIZABETH
So, a man met a woman - - a goddess. And they fell in love. That's hardly unique.
SAO FENG
Ah, but Calypso, fickle like the sea, fell out of love, and left him. Jones, in his despair, cut his heart from his body, and put it in a cheat, having no more use for it. (beat) I know it does not sound credible.
Elizabeth can't help but smile.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 41
ELIZABETH
No, that part I believe.
SAO FENG
When Jones cut his heart out, Calypso was angry, and the seas stormed for many years. Many good men died. So the Pirate Brethren came together and took counsel. The Brethren summoned Calypso, and tricked her, casting a spell that trapped her in human form.
Sao Feng raises the intricate knot pendant and regards it.
We notice the pendant is old, faded and frayed.
ELIZABETH
What is that?
SAO FENG
Nothing. A badge that designates the Captain. In any case - - with Calypso tamed, so the seas were tamed, and so began the Age of Piracy.
ELIZABETH
And so you think I am Calypso? Imprisoned in human form?
He regards her.
SAO FENG
No one knows where Calypso is hidden. Why not someone as beautiful as moonlight on the waves, as starlight above the horizon?
Elizabeth smiles.
ELIZABETH
Pretty speech from a captor. But words whispered through prison bars lose their charm.
SAO FENG
Can I be blamed for my efforts? All men are drawn to the sea. Perilous though it may be.
ELIZABETH
Often men offer desire as an excuse for their crimes.
SAO FENG
I offer simply my desire.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 42
ELIZABETH
An item of such small value. And in return?
SAO FENG
I would have your gifts, should you choose to give them.
ELIZABETH
And if I choose not?
SAO FENG
Then I will take your fury.
He leans in to kiss her - -
Elizabeth shoves Sao Feng away. he stumbles backwards. She kicks over the candles, falls in the dark. Elizabeth turns to run
There is a sudden, load CRASH.
Elizabeth stop. Turns looks back
MOONLIGHT shoots through a round HOLE in the HULL.
Elizabeth frowns moves toward it.
She follows the shaft of moonlight to - -
Sao Feng lies on the deck, bloody, motionless, his body crushed by a cannon shot.
ELIZABETH
Sao Feng ?
She touches him - - no reaction.
The she hears, soft in the distance, the explosion sound of CANNON FIRE - - and the approaching whistle of a cannon ball - - Elizabeth dives away from the hull as a second cannon ball CRASHES through - -
A second shaft of MOONLIGHT shoots through a new hole. The ship is under attack.
SAO FENG
Here. Please.
Elizabeth crawls over toward the moonlight. Sao Feng removes the rope luck pendant he wears.
SAO FENG(CONT'D)
Take this.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 43
ELIZABETH
Why?
SAO FENG
Take it. Go to the Brethren.
Another cannon shot. The First Mate bursts through the door Pulls up short. he watches as - -
A dying Sao Feng hands the pendant over to Elizabeth. She puts it over her head.
SAO FENG
(CONT'D)
Tell me. Are you her?
He looks at her. Hope in his eyes.
SAO FENG
(CONT'D)
You are Calypso.
Elizabeth debates her answer. Finally:
ELIZABETH
No.
Sao Feng stares at her, disappointed. Close his eyes, never to open them again.
Another blast, another cannon ball approaches The First Mate and Elizabeth dive to the deck - -
EXT. EMPRESS - DECK - DAY
Elizabeth exits the Captain's Cabin, followed by the First Mate CHINESE PIRATES man their stations.
Elizabeth looks out - -
Coming around for another broadside is the Flying Dutchman, cannon ports open.
FIRST MATE
Orders, Captain?
Elizabeth is startled. He indicates the pendant. She looks over - - the rest of the crew stare at her. fear in their eyes, but determined, ready to fight.
Elizabeth looks out at the Flying Dutchman - - much larger, better manned, more firepower, more maneuverable.
ELIZABETH
Surrender.
EXT. FLYING DUTCHMAN - MAIN DECK - DAY
Chinese crew - - captives - - are lined up along the rail.

NORRINGTON
Pirates.
Norrington strides down the line of men, similar in manner to Davy Jones.
NORRINGTON (CONT'D)
Keep the ship. The men are of no use to us. Hang them all.
DAVY JONES
No mercy?
NORRINGTON
Mercy is an aspect of God, who is far better suited to judge these men than I.
He comes to the Chinese First Mate.
NORRINGTON (CONT'D)
Who is your Captain?
the First Mate looks down the line. Norrington follows his gaze to - -
Elizabeth. In her Chinese garb, wearing the knot pendant.
Norrington is overwhelmed. he stares sat her in disbelief, a lifetime of emotions in his eyes.
In return from Elizabeth - - a look of pure hatred, remembering her father's death. Norrington registers her emotion.
DAVY JONES
Hang them all, sir?
NORRINGTON
No. The man are to be prisoners. Send the Captain to my quarters.
ELIZABETH
No thank you, sir. I will stay with my men.
Norrington is surprised - - again noting the hatred.
NORRINGTON
As you wish, Captain.
INT. FLYING DUTCHMAN - BRIG - DAY
Prisoners behind bars. not yet in jail, GUARDS release Elizabeth from her bonds.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 45
Elizabeth has regained her composure enough to smile.
Norrington is relieved.
NORRINGTON
Elizabeth, I'm sorry.
Elizabeth moves towards him. reaches down pulls out his sword, and slashes at him with all her might - -
Norrington CATCHES his own sword in a gloved hand. Blood runs down his wrist. He looks into her eyes... understands her anger.
NORRINGTON
(CONT'D)
I deeply regret the passing of your father.
He wrestles the sword from her, using his bloodied hand.
NORRINGTON
(CONT'D)
But I swear to you - - I had no part in it.
ELIZABETH
I have reason to believe otherwise.
NORRINGTON
I uphold the law. The man responsible for your father's death will be brought to justice - -
ELIZABETH
The same justice you were to show me - - and my crew?
NORRINGTON
Pirates.
She stares at him in anger, disbelief.
ELIZABETH
Please explain to me the distinction. From what I have seen, you have become worse. Justice. You kill in the name of justice. You were an honest man once. No longer.
NORRINGTON
You have lost your way.
ELIZABETH
I know my place. Shouldn't you lock me up with the other pirates, Captain?
Norrington nods, and the Guards lock Elizabeth in jail.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 46
NORRINGTON
I am innocent. Is there nothing I can do to convince you?
ELIZABETH
you murder people for a living, now. Don't speak to me of innocence.
Norrington stares at her. Looks down at his bloodied hand.
Something changes in him. He smiles ruefully, holds up his hand.
NORRINGTON
No one is innocent in this world. You will all hang at dawn.
He exits. One of the Guards glances to the other, who glances back. they've been listening.
EXT. CARIBBEAN SEA - NIGHT
Amid calm seas, the Empress is towed by the Ducthman.
EXT. FLYING DUTCHMAN - BRIG - NIGHT
dark shadows. Elizabeth's eyes open at the sound of the jail door opening. Norrington is there.
ELIZABETH
What are you doing?
NORRINGTON
Follow me. Everyone.
EXT. FLYING DUTCHMAN - STERN - NIGHT
Norrington leads Elizabeth and her crew to the tow rope, to cross onto the Empress.
NORRINGTON
One at a time. Hurry.
Like rats on a line, crew members crawl across to the towed ship.
ELIZABETH
Why the secrecy? You're the Captain.
NORRINGTON
I fear not. And I will take no chances with you.
Elizabeth regards him.
ELIZABETH
It is too late to earn forgiveness.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 47
NORRINGTON
Indeed. I did not know of the plan to kill your father. But that does not absolve me of my other sins.
Elizabeth looks at him - - and finally believes him.

hi i agree with np i think jack and elizabeth will get together.cause ive seen the script of the trailer and it says that elizabeth puts her arms around will then he throws them off.doesnt sound like a very happy couple does it.also a part of it shows jack and elizabeth holding hands ready to jump of something.

my theory is either jack and liz will get together or elizabeth wont get with either.

Jack and Elizabeth will not end up together. If she loved him,- she wouldn't have been able to kill him off and feed him to the Krakan! Not even if it had costed her her life! She would have died with him, because without the one, you love, life isn't worth living! - She doesn't love him.
It is an English film... I think neither Jack nor Will will get her.
Jack deserves a girl, who is deeply and utterly in love with him.

I think that Elizabeth did love Jack;she betrayed him maybe because she was confused and she want to find the answer of her questions with out him, she wanted to know what was happening to her and why she didn't fell the same about Will.I think she always felt attractive to Jack I know thats for certain...but we got to wait until the movie comes.

LOVE YOU JOHNNY DEPP

i personally think that Elizabeth will probebly end up with Will BUT i think that many would agree that she would make a better couple with Jack... because well.... cause they just do and jacks hotter. lols. and more brave and smart... and just cool. but she probebly won't cause that would pretty much mess with eveyrthing but i think jack should get a girl ... like seroiusly ... it's JACK SPARROW. i mean CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW.

i wont loose your time talking about my love for the potc movies..i read (dont remember where) that there will be a 4th movie of potc! but orlando bloom wont be in it(because he dont want to do it)! aparently will turner will die, and elisabeth will end up with jack sparrow! i am really not inventing all these..i read it yesterday in a web site....if you want to find out more..just google the words pirates of the caribbean 4th movie..and in one of the links will be the news i just told you!

in the first movie i was inlove of the coupple elisabeth-will but after the second i really must say that i love how look the relationship between her and jack! is really sweet the way they dont admit their feelings...but show them in their actions!

if you are one of the persons who thinks that she kiss him only to put him the handcuffs..then you will have to explain me why when they hold the compass it pointed at each other!!!!!(remember that the compass pointed at the thing they love the most)..

if someone can answer me that, then i will accept the fact that thay are not meant for each other, (anyway i will keep loving their coupple i think they have a great chimestry)

love..

hero of timeJan 24th, 2007 - 02:45:21

Personally I hear many rumors about the 3rd movie and I feel as if; Jack and Elizabeth will NOT be together because She will realize she a Will were meant to be together. The whole Elizabeth kissing Jack was more of a side plot to creat tension. In the end I think Will will marry Elizabeth, Jack and Barbossa will sail off with the pearl. Davy Jone will die and Will's father will choose not to be rescued and will captain the Flying Dutchman. This is what I think will happen in the next movie.

PS. They made such a big deal of Will loving Elizabeth so in the end Liz and Will will most likely end up with each other.

now the person that wrote that comment must have seen the movie because that actually happens Lol i have seen it
