Synopsis: After Elizabeth, Will, and Captain Barbossa rescue Captain Jack Sparrow from the the land of the dead, they must face their foes, Davy Jones and Lord Cutler Beckett. Beckett, now with control of Jones' heart, forms a dark alliance with him in order to rule the seas and wipe out the last of the Pirates. Now, Jack, Barbossa, Will, Elizabeth, Tia Dalma, and crew must call the Pirate Lords from the four corners of the globe, including the infamous Sao Feng, to gathering. The Pirate Lords want to release the goddess Calypso, Davy Jones's damned lover, from the trap they sent her to out of fear, in which the Pirate Lords must combine the 9 pieces that bound her by ritual to undo it and release her in hopes that she will help them fight. With this, all pirates will stand together and will make their final stand for freedom against Beckett, Jones, Norrington, the Flying Dutchman, and the entire East India Trading Company.

And if I should choose not?

Then I will take...

...your fury.

[Grunting]

[Elizabeth panting]

[Pirates shouting]

Sao Feng?

Here.

Please.

With all nine pieces of eight...

...you will be free.

Take it!

You are captain now.

Me?

Go in my place to Shipwreck Cove.

Captain! The ship is taken.

We cannot...

Forgive me... Calypso.

[Explosions and shouting]

Sao.

What did he tell you?

He made me captain.

Set! Fire!

You are not my captain.

Elizabeth.

James. James.

Thank God, you're alive.

Your father'll be overjoyed

- to know you're safe.

- My father's dead.

No, that can't be true.

He returned to England.

Did Lord Beckett tell you that?

Who among you

do you name as captain?

Captain. Her.

[All] Her.

Captain?

Tow the ship.

Put the prisoners in the brig.

The captain shall have my quarters.

Thank you, sir.

- But I prefer to remain with my crew.

- Elizabeth.

I swear.

I did not know.

Know what?

Which side you chose?

Well, now you do.

Bootstrap?

[Chuckling]

Bootstrap.

Bill Turner?

[Man] Bootstrap.

You know my name.

Yes, I know your son.

Will Turner.

William.

He made it. He's alive.

And now he sends you to tell me

that he's coming to get me.

God's wounds. He's on his way.

Yes, Will is alive.

And he wants to help you.

He can't help me. He won't come.

But you're his father.

I know you.

He spoke of you.

He can't save me.

He can't come because of you.

Me?

You're Elizabeth.

Yes, I'm Elizabeth.

If Jones be slain,

he who slays him must take his place.

Captain... Forever.

The Dutchman

must always have a captain.

And if he saves me...

...he loses you.

I see.

He won't pick me.

I wouldn't pick me.

Tell him not to come.

Tell him to stay away.

Tell him it's too late.

I'm already a part of the ship...

...and the crew.

Bootstrap.

You know my name.

You know my name.

Yes, I know your son.

William.

He's coming for me.

Wait and see.

You'll see.

He promised.

[Man] Swing her over.

Ready those lines.

Sir.

[Beckett] A breadcrumb trail.

- And we're meant to follow.

- A betrayer among them?

- Or a trap?

- A gambit by a skilled opponent.

- Adjust course, lieutenant.

- Sir?

We can only hope

to reach our destination

before they run out of bodies.

You escaped the brig

even quicker than I expected.

William, do you notice anything?

Rather...

...do you notice something

that is not there to be noticed?

- You haven't raised an alarm.

- Odd, isn't it?

Not as odd as this.

Come up with this

all by your lonesome, did you?

I said to myself, "Think like Jack."

This is what you've arrived at?

Lead Beckett to Shipwreck Cove

so as to gain his trust...

...accomplish your own ends?

Lt's like you don't know me at all.

And how does your dearly beloved

feel about this plan?

Ah.

You've not seen fit

to trust her with it.

I'm losing her, Jack.

Every step I make for my father

is a step away from Elizabeth.

If you choose to lock your heart away,

you'll lose her for certain.

If I might lend a machete

to your intellectual thicket...

...avoid the choice altogether.

Change the facts.

Let someone else dispatch Jones.

Who?

You?

Death has a curious way

of reshuffling one's priorities.

I slip aboard the Dutchman,

find the heart, stab the beating thing,

your father's free from his debt,

you're free to be

with your charming murderess.

You're willing to cut out your heart

and bind yourself to the Dutchman...

...forever?

- No, mate. I'm free forever.

Free to sail the seas beyond the edges

of the map. Free from death itself.

You have to do the job though, Jack.

You have to ferry souls

to the next world.

- Or end up just like Jones.

- [Groans]

I don't have the face for tentacles.

But immortal has to

count for something, eh?

What's this for?

Think like me. It'll come to you.

My regards to Davy Jones.

I hate him.

Come with me.

Quickly.

What are you doing?

Choosing a side.

[Whispering in Chinese]

Do not go to Shipwreck Cove. Beckett

knows of the meeting of the Brethren.

I fear there may be

a traitor among them.

It's too late to earn my forgiveness.

I had nothing to do

with your father's death.

But that does not absolve me

of my other sins.

Come with us.

James, come with me.

[Bootstrap Bill] Who goes there?

Go. I will follow.

You're lying.

Our destinies have been entwined,

Elizabeth...

...but never joined.

Go, now.

Back to your station, sailor.

- No one leaves the ship.

- Stand down. That's an order.

That's an order.

Part of the crew, part of the ship.

Part of the crew,

part of the ship. Part of the crew...

- Steady, man.

- Part of the crew, part of the ship.

All hands, prisoner escape!

- Belay that!

- James!

[Screaming]

[Man] Prisoner escape!

James! No!

- The admiral's dead.

- Admiral's dead?

- The admiral's dead.

- Admiral's dead.

- To the captairs cabin!

- [All] Aye!

Back to the ship.

James Norrington. Do you fear death?

I take that as a "no."

Nice sword.

The Dutchman is under my command.

For now.

Look alive and keep a weather eye.

Not for naught

it's called Shipwreck Island.

Where lies Shipwreck Cove

and the town of Shipwreck.

You heard him. Step lively.

For all that pirates are clever clogs,

we are unimaginative

when it comes to naming things.

Aye.

I once sailed with a geezer who lost

both of his arms and part of his eye.

What'd you call him?

Larry.

I do not renege

on a bargain once struck.

But we agreed on ends only.

The means are mine to decide.

Caution, Barbossa.

Do not forget it was by my power

you return from the dead.

Or what it mean if you fail me.

Don't you forget

why you had to bring me back.

Why I could not leave Jack

to his well-deserved fate.

It took nine pirate lords

to bind you, Calypso.

And it'll take no less than nine

to set you free.

Masters Pintel and Ragetti.

Take this fishwife to the brig.

Right this way, Mrs. Fish.

I cannot be summoned

like some mongrel pup.

Apparently, you can.

I believe you know each other.

[Chuckles]

Come to join my crew again,

Master Turner?

Not yours.

His.

Jack Sparrow sends his regards.

Sparrow?

You didn't tell him.

We rescued Jack from the Locker

along with the Black Pearl.

What else have you not told me?

There is an issue far more troublesome.

I believe you're familiar

with a person called Calypso.

Not a person.

A heathen god.

One who delights in cursing men

with their wildest dreams

and then revealing them to be

hollow and naught but ash.

- The world is well rid of her.

- Not quite so well, actually.

The Brethren Court

intends to release her.

No! They cannot!

The First Court

promised to imprison her forever.

- That was our agreement.

- Your agreement?

I showed them how to bind her.

She could not be trusted.

I... She gave me no choice.

We must act before they release her.

You loved her.

She's the one.

And then you betrayed her.

She pretended to love me.

She betrayed me.

And after which betrayal

did you cut out your heart, I wonder.
