- Will Turner:Where's Elizabeth?
- Jack Sparrow:She's safe, just like I promised. She's all set to marry Norrington, just like she promised. And you get to die for her, just like you promised. So we're all men of our word really... except for, of course, Elizabeth, who is in fact, a woman.
- Jack Sparrow:This is the day you will always remember as the day you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow!
- Will Turner:This is either madness... or brilliance.
- Jack Sparrow:It's remarkable how often those two traits coincide.
- Mullroy:What's your purpose in Port Royal, Mr. Smith?
- Murtogg:Yeah, and no lies.
- Jack Sparrow:Well, then, I confess, it is my intention to commandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Tortuga, raid, pillage, plunder and otherwise pilfer my weasely black guts out.
- Murtogg:I said no lies.
- Mullroy:I think he's telling the truth.
- Murtogg:If he were telling the truth, he wouldn't have told us.
- Jack Sparrow:Unless, of course, he knew you wouldn't believe the truth even if he told it to you.
- Norrington:No additional shot nor powder, a compass that doesn't point north,
- [looks at Jack's sword]
- Norrington:And I half expected it to be made of wood. You are without doubt the worst pirate I've ever heard of.
- Jack Sparrow:But you have heard of me.
- Jack Sparrow:Parleley, parlelellyleloooo, par le nee, partner, par... snip, parsley...
- Ragetti:Parley?
- Jack Sparrow:That's the one. Parley. Parley.
- Pintel:Parley? Damn to the depths whatever man what thought of "Parley".
- Jack Sparrow:That would be the French.
- Jack Sparrow:Me? I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid.
- Jack Sparrow:[Wakes up and sees Elizabeth burning the rum] No! Not good! Stop! Not good! What are you doing? You burned all the food, the shade... the rum.
- Elizabeth:Yes, the rum is gone.
- Jack Sparrow:Why is the rum gone?
- Elizabeth:One: because it is a vile drink that turns even the most respectable men into complete scoundrels. Two: that signal is over a thousand feet high. The entire Royal Navy is out looking for me. Do you really think there is even the slightest chance they won't see it?
- Jack Sparrow:But why is the rum gone?
- Elizabeth:Just wait captain Sparrow. You give it one hour, maybe two; keep a weather eye out and you will see white sails on that horizon.
- [Jack momentarily considers shooting her with his single bullet he has been saving for ten years before stomping off]
- Jack Sparrow:"Must have been terrible for you to be trapped here Jack. Must have been terrible for you." Well it bloody is now!
- [Seeing Norrington's ship off shore, vindicating her plan]
- Jack Sparrow:There'll be no living with her after this.
- Will Turner:That's not true. I am not obsessed with treasure.
- Jack Sparrow:Not all treasure is silver and gold, mate.
- Jack Sparrow:I know those cannons. It's the Pearl.
- Man in Jail:The Black Pearl? I've heard stories. She's been preying on ships and settlements for near ten years. Never leaves any survivors.
- Jack Sparrow:No survivors? Then where do the stories come from, I wonder?
- Bar Boss a:How the blazes did you get off that island?
- Jack Sparrow:When you marooned me on that god forsaken spit of land, you forgot one very important thing, mate: I'm Captain Jack Sparrow.
- [last lines]
- Jack Sparrow:Now... bring me that horizon.
- [humming]
- Jack Sparrow:"And really bad eggs." Drink up me 'earties. Yo ho.
- [snaps compass shut]
- Bar Boss a:For too long I've been parched of thirst and unable to quench it. Too long I've been starving to death and haven't died. I feel nothing. Not the wind on my face nor the spray of the sea. Nor the warmth of a woman's flesh.
- [steps into moonlight becoming a skeleton]
- Bar Boss a:You best start believing in ghost stories, Miss Turner... you're in one!
- Jack Sparrow:The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can't do. For instance, you can accept that your father was a pirate and a good man or you can't. But pirate is in your blood, boy, so you'll have to square with that some day. And me, for example, I can let you drown, but I can't bring this ship into Tortuga all by me onesies, savvy? So, can you sail under the command of a pirate, or can you not?
- Jack Sparrow:[to Weatherby Swann] I think we've all arrived at a very special place. Spiritually, ecumenically, grammatically.
- Jack Sparrow:I want you to know that I was rooting for you. Know that.
- [to Commodore Norrington]
- Jack Sparrow:Elizabeth... it would never have worked between us darling. I'm sorry... Will... nice hat. Friends... This is the day that you will ALWAYS remember as the day that you...
- [backs up and trips over ledge]
- Murtogg:This dock is off-limits to civilians.
- Jack Sparrow:I'm terribly sorry, I didn't know. If I see one, I shall inform you immediately.
- [Jack makes to continue but is blocked by Murtogg and Mullroy]
- Jack Sparrow:Apparently there's some sort of high-toned and fancy to-do up at the fort, eh? How could it be that two upstanding gentlemen, such as yourselves, did not merit an invitation?
- Murtogg:Someone's got to make sure that this dock stays off-limits to civilians.
- Jack Sparrow:It's a fine goal, to be sure. But it seems to me... that a ship like that one, makes this one here seem a bit superfluous, really.
- Murtogg:Oh, the Dauntless is the power in these waters, true enough. But there's no ship as can match the Interceptor for speed.
- Jack Sparrow:I've heard of one, supposed to be very fast, nigh uncatchable: The Black Pearl.
- Mullroy:Well, there's no real ship as can match the Interceptor.
- Murtogg:The Black Pearl is a real ship.
- Mullroy:No, it's not.
- Murtogg:Yes it is, I've seen it.
- Mullroy:You've seen it?
- Murtogg:Yes.
- Mullroy:You haven't seen it.
- Murtogg:Yes, I have.
- Mullroy:You've seen a ship with black sails that's crewed by the damned, and captained by a man so evil that Hell itself spat him back out?
- Murtogg:No.
- Mullroy:No.
- Murtogg:But I have seen a ship with black sails.
- [Jack quietly slips passed them unnoticed]
- Mullroy:Oh, and no ship that's not crewed by the damned and captained by a man so evil that Hell itself spat him back out could possibly have black sails, therefore couldn't possibly be any other ship than the Black Pearl. Is that what you're telling me?
- Murtogg:[nods] No.
- Mullroy:Like I said, there's no real ship as can match the Interceptor.
- Jack Sparrow:[looking at all the swords] Who makes all these?
- Will Turner:I do. And I practice with them three hours a day.
- Jack Sparrow:You need to find yourself a girl, mate. Or perhaps the reason you practice three hours a day is that you already found one, and are otherwise incapable of wooing said strumpet. You're not a eunuch are you?
- Will Turner:I practice three hours a day, so when I meet a pirate, I can kill it.
- Jack Sparrow:One question about your business, boy, or there's no use going: This girl... how far are you willing to go to save her?
- Will Turner:I'd die for her.
- Jack Sparrow:Oh good. No worries then.
- Jack Sparrow:I love this song. Really bad eggs. Ooh.
- [falls]
- Jack Sparrow:When I get the Pearl back, I'm gonna teach it to the whole crew, and we'll sing it all the time.
- Elizabeth:And you'll be positively the most fearsome pirates in the Spanish Main.
- Jack Sparrow:Not just the Spanish Main, love. The entire ocean. The entire wo'ld. Wherever we want to go, we'll go. That's what a ship is, you know. It's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship needs but what a ship is... what the Black Pearl really is... is freedom.
- Elizabeth:Will, how many times must I ask you to call me Elizabeth?
- Will Turner:At least once more, Miss Swann, as always.
- Jack Sparrow:[after Will draws his sword] Put it away, son. It's not worth you getting beat again.
- Will Turner:You didn't beat me. You ignored the rules of engagement. In a fair fight, I'd kill you.
- Jack Sparrow:That's not much incentive for me to fight fair, then, is it?
- [after Jack steals the Interceptor]
- Officer:That's got to be the best pirate I've ever seen.
- Norrington:So it would seem.
- Elizabeth:Captain Bar Boss a, I am here to negotiate the cessation of hostilities against Port Royal.
- Bar Boss a:There are a lot of long words in there, Miss; we're naught but humble pirates. What is it that you want?
- Elizabeth:I want you to leave and never come back.
- Bar Boss a:I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request. Means "no".
- Elizabeth:Very well. I'll drop it.
- [dangles medallion over the sea]
- Bar Boss a:Me holds are burstin' with swag. That bit of shine matters to us? Why?
- Elizabeth:It's what you've been searching for. I recognized the ship. I saw it eight years ago on the crossing from England.
- Bar Boss a:Did ya, now?
- Elizabeth:Fine. Well, I suppose if it is worthless then there's no point in me keeping it.
- [it drops a bit, the pirates lunge forward]
- Bar Boss a:No! Ah.
- [chuckles]
- Bar Boss a:You have a name, Missy?
- Elizabeth:Elizabeth... Turner. I'm a maid in the Governor's household.
- Bar Boss a:Miss Turner...?
- [turns to face the pirates]
- Pintel:Bootstrap.
- Bar Boss a:And how does a maid come to own a trinket such as that? Family heirloom, perhaps?
- Elizabeth:I didn't steal it, if that's what you mean.
- Bar Boss a:Very well, you hand it over and we'll put your town to our rudder and ne'er return.
- Elizabeth:[she hands it over] Our bargain?
- [Bar Boss a walks away from her]
- Bo'sun:Still the guns and stow 'em, Signal the men, set the flags and make good to clear port.
- Elizabeth:Wait! You have to take me to shore. According to the Code of the Order of the Brethren...
- Bar Boss a:First, your return to shore was not part of our negotiations nor our agreement so I must do nothing. And secondly, you must be a pirate for the pirate's code to apply and you're not. And thirdly, the code is more what you'd call "guidelines" than actual rules. Welcome aboard the Black Pearl, Miss Turner.
- Jack Sparrow:Anamaria.
- [Anamaria slaps Jack]
- Will Turner:I suppose, you didn't deserve that one either?
- Jack Sparrow:No, that one I deserved.
- Anamaria:You stole my boat!
- Jack Sparrow:Actually...
- Anamaria:[Anamaria slaps Jack again]
- Jack Sparrow:Borrowed... borrowed without permission, but with every intention of bringing it back.
- Anamaria:But you didn't!
- Jack Sparrow:You'll get another one.
- Anamaria:I will.
- Will Turner:A better one.
- Jack Sparrow:A better one.
- Will Turner:That one.
- Jack Sparrow:What one?
- Will Turner:[Will looks at the Interceptor]
- Jack Sparrow:That one? Aye, that one. What say you to that?
- The Crew:Aye!
- Mr. Gibbs:No, it's frightful bad luck to have a woman aboard.
- Jack Sparrow:It would be far worse not to have her.
- Jack Sparrow:Last time... I was here a grand total of three days, all right? Last time, the rum runners used this island as a cache, they came past and I was able to barter passage off. By the look of things, they've long been out of business. Probably have your bloody friend Norrington to thank for that.
- Elizabeth:So that's it, then? That's the secret, grand adventure of the infamous Jack Sparrow. You spent three days lying on a beach drinking rum.
- Jack Sparrow:Welcome to the Caribbean, love.
- Bar Boss a:Ten years you carry that pistol and now you waste your shot.
- Will Turner:He didn't waste it.
- [Jack throws a bucket of water on sleeping Gibbs]
- Mr. Gibbs:Curse you for breathin' ya slack-jawed idiot. Mother's love. Jack. You should know better than to wake a man when he's sleepin'. Its bad luck.
- Jack Sparrow:Fortunately, I know how to counter it; the man who did the waking buys the man who was sleeping a drink; the man who was sleeping drinks it while listening to a proposition from the man who did the waking.
- Mr. Gibbs:Aye, that'll about do it.
- [Will throws more water on Mr. Gibbs]
- Mr. Gibbs:Blast! I'm already awake!
- Will Turner:That was for the smell.
- Bar Boss a:[talking to Will Turner] Who are you?
- Jack Sparrow:No one. He's no one. Distant cousin of my aunt's nephew twice removed. Lovely singing voice. Eunuch.
- [shouting during severe storm]
- Will Turner:How can we sail to an island that nobody can find with a compass that doesn't work?
- Mr. Gibbs:Aye, the compass doesn't point North. But we're not trying to find North, are we?
- Will Turner:She goes free.
- [points pistol at Bar Boss a]
- Bar Boss a:What's in your head, boy?
- Will Turner:She goes free!
- Bar Boss a:You've only got one shot, and we can't die.
- Jack Sparrow:[whispered to Will] Don't do anything stupid.
- Will Turner:You can't. I can.
- [points gun at himself]
- Jack Sparrow:Like that.
- Bar Boss a:Who are you?
- Jack Sparrow:[to Bar Boss a] No one. He's no one. A distant cousin of my aunt's nephew twice removed. Lovely singing voice, though - eunuch.
- Will Turner:My name is Will Turner. My father was Bootstrap Bill Turner. His blood runs in my veins.
- Ragetti:He's the spitting image of ol' Bootstrap Bill come back to haunt us.
- Will Turner:On my word do as I say, or I'll pull this trigger and be lost to Davy Jones' Locker.
- Bar Boss a:Name your terms, Mr. Turner.
- Will Turner:Elizabeth goes free.
- Bar Boss a:Yes, we know that one. Anything else?
- Jack Sparrow:[points at himself] Me!
- Will Turner:And the crew - the crew are not to be harmed.
- [duelling with Jack, Bar Boss a suddenly throws away his sword]
- Bar Boss a:You can't beat me, Jack!
- [In reply, Jack stabs him with his sword. Bar Boss a simply sighs, pulls the blade out of his body and stabs Jack with it. He smiles as Jack totters - but is shocked when a shaft of moonlight turns Jack into a cursed skeleton of his former self...]
- Jack Sparrow:[examining his new form] That's interesting...
- Jack Sparrow:[to Bar Boss a, an Aztec coin dancing on his fingers] I couldn't resist, mate...
- Will Turner:We're going to steal a ship? That ship?
- Jack Sparrow:Commandeer. We're going to commandeer that ship. Nautical term.
- [talking to the pirates while he's in jail]
- Jack Sparrow:Worry about your own fortunes, gentlemen. The deepest circle of hell is reserved for betrayers and mutineers.
- [pirate grabs Jack's throat to reveal a skeleton arm]
- Jack Sparrow:So, there is a curse? That's interesting.
- Koehler:You know nothing of hell.
- Jack Sparrow:That's VERY interesting.
- Jack Sparrow:Move away.
- Will Turner:No.
- Jack Sparrow:Please move?
- Will Turner:No. I cannot just step aside and let you escape.
- Jack Sparrow:This shot was not meant for you.
- Bar Boss a:So what now, Jack Sparrow? Are we to be two immortals locked in an epic battle until Judgment Day and trumpets sound?
- Jack Sparrow:Or you could surrender.
- Bar Boss a:So you expect to leave me standing on some beach with nothing but a name and your word it's the one I need and watch you sail away on my ship?
- Jack Sparrow:No. I expect to leave you standing on some beach with absolutely no name at all, watching me sail away on *my* ship, and then I'll shout the name back to you. Savvy?
- Bar Boss a:But that still leaves us with the problem of me standing on some beach with naught but a name and your word it's the one I need.
- Jack Sparrow:Of the two of us, I am the only one who hasn't committed mutiny, therefore my word is the one we'll be trusting. Although, I suppose I should be thanking you because in fact, if you hadn't betrayed me and left me to die, I would have an equal share in that curse same as you.
- [bites into an apple]
- Jack Sparrow:Funny ol' world, i'n'it?
- [offers him an apple]
- [the other prisoners are whistling and calling for the dog with the keys in his mouth]
- Jack Sparrow:You can keep doing that forever, the dog is NEVER going to move.
- Seedy Looking Prisoner:Well excuse me if we haven't resorted ourselves to the gallows just yet.
- Bar Boss a:Why thank ye, Jack.
- Jack Sparrow:You're welcome.
- Bar Boss a:Oh, not you. We named the monkey Jack.
- Jack Sparrow:[upon seeing Elizabeth plunge into the ocean] Will you be saving her then?
- Mullroy:I can't swim.
- [Jack looks at Murtogg... no he won't do either]
- Jack Sparrow:Pride of the King's navy you are. Do not lose these.
- [Jack sees Mr. Cotton's parot]
- Jack Sparrow:Well! I'm actually feeling rather good about this. I think we all arrived at a very special place eh?
- [Governor acts disgusted]
- Jack Sparrow:Spiritually. Ecumenically. Grammatically.
- [Walks over to Commondore]
- Jack Sparrow:I want you to know that I was rooting for you, mate. Know that.
- [Turns to Elizabeth]
- Jack Sparrow:Elizabeth. It would never have worked out between us, darling.
- [Elizabeth looks confused]
- Jack Sparrow:I'm sorry. Will. Nice hat.
- [Will smiles]
- Jack Sparrow:[Jack runs up to the edge of the balcony and turns to everybody] Friends! This is the day that you will always remember as the day that...
- [Falls off balcony]
- Jack Sparrow:Do us a favor... I know it's difficult for you... but please, stay here, and try not to do anything... stupid.
