>Pirates of the Caribbean 3 : script page 1
>
>EXT. SINGAPORE HARBOR - WHARF ñ 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:
>
>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 Chinese 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.

>Sao Feng opens a satchel, revealing a set of charts inside.

>
>Elizabeth pushes forward.

>How much?
>
>Sao Feng focuses on Elizabeth. Looks at Barbossa.

>Let me see the charts.

>Captain Sao Feng smiles.
>SAO FENG
>How do we know your quest was successful? The Lady desires to look

>
>SWANN
>Attack authorizations? I thought pirate activity was at an end
>
>BECKETT
>They're lying low for the moment. But the Brethren will gather soon

>
>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

>Swann hesitates then signs. He hates it.

>SWANN

>
>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

>some anger out on it with his cane.
>Norrington catches his arm. They must SHOUT over the noise.
>
>NORRINGTON
>Governor!

>SWANN

>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, there was once a belief
>that it was beneficial and correct to consider the welfare of

>
>Norrington doesn't 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
>Dutchman. 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 absorbs this.
>
>SWANN
>I must find a ship to England.

>Mister Barbossa. On the charts, I was struck by a curious phrase.

>
>BARBOSSA
>Ever gazed upon the green flash, Mister Gibbs?
>
>GIBBS
>I reckon I've seen my share.(explains, for Will's benefit) It's

>WILL
>Carry on, then.

>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

>
>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 himself.
>Tia Dalma turns to Barbossa.
>Barbossa answers with great conviction and sincerity and a lowered

>
>BARBOSSA
>To atone for my many and varied sins, ma'am.
>
>Gibbs laughs. Barbossa looks hurt.
>
>BARBOSSA(CONT'D)
>And because you kindly asked me to come on this voyage,

>
>GIBBS
>I wondered about that. How exactly were you delivered from your

>
>Barbossa smiles, sticks his knife into an apple slice, bites into it

>
>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 considers, and finally settles on:

>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:
>
>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 doesnít like the sound of that.
>
>WILL
>As do I with you. Every day. I suspect there is more that troubles

>
>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?
>
>BARBOSSA
>Aye, for certain you have to be lost, to find a place as can't be

>
>WILL
>Lost or crazy.
>
>BARBOSSA
>Or why not both?
>
>Barbossa laughs. Then they hear a distant ROAR.

>
>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

the sword fight stops as a large ship catches up with them the look of amaze ment on their faces are hilariouse it's the empress and it's new captain standing at the railing smiling!
Jack pulls his self together smiles.
Jack ee?! What did I tell you we can't get rid of that girl if we want to.
Will:Elizabeth???? I thought you were taking the northern rout. what happend? where is sao? are you ok?
Liz: Well we WERE taking the northern rout until we got attacked, sao died and Norrington was killed trying to help us escape! no biggie really just a little bit of this and that!
Jack(like what elizabeth said was the most normal thing ever): well that's that! welcome back to the pearl miss swann.
Liz: I'm not coming back to the pearl and by the way it's CAPTAIN elizabeth swann now!
Jack stops dead in his track looking genuinly shocked but as he turns around to face the Empress and Will and Liz his trademark smile is as fresh as ever.
Jack: is it now?!
his eyes stop on the knot medalion.
Jack: well than it is! sorry I didn't catch that before! well than "Captain Swann" you will have to attend the berthern with us. I suggest a good nights sleep and lots of rum now that your captain take the advice one captain to the other.
turns around again makes for his cabin.
Jack(singsong under his breath): my ship is faster! my ship is better!my sails are blaaaaack!

POTC3 (ye be warned MAJOR MAJOR spoilers)
ur take and POC4 our version now I thought it would be fun to write what we THINK will hapeen instead of what we WANT to happen. I have the first 56 pages of the early draft and I'm going to post it here and we can continue the rest! I hope you all write cause if we think of what disney, Ted, Terry and gore want we can make something maybe SLIGHTLY close to what will hapeen. so don't read my next posts if you don't wanna know the first 56 pages of the script!
