Pirates of the Caribbean Script
Young
Gibbs: Quiet, missy! Cursed pirates sail these waters. You don?t want to bring them down on us, now, do ya?
Norrington: Mr. Gibbs, that will do!
Gibbs: She was singing about pirates. Bad luck to be singing about pirates with us mired in this unnatural fog. Mark my words.
Norrington: Consider them marked. On your way.
Gibbs: Aye, Lieutenant. It?s bad luck to have a woman on board, too? even a miniature one.
Young
Norrington: Think again, Miss Swann. Vile and dissolute creatures, the lot of them. I intend to see to it that any man who sails under a pirate flag or wears a pirate brand gets what he deserves ? a short drop and a sudden stop.
Governor Swann: Lieutenant Norrington, I appreciate your fervor, but I?m, uh, I?m concerned about the effect this subject will have upon my daughter.
Norrington: My apologies, Governor Swann.
Young
Governor Swann: Yes. That?s what concerns me.
Young
Norrington: Man overboard! Man the ropes. Fetch a Hook! Haul him aboard. He?s still breathing.
Gibbs: Mary, Mother of God!
Governor Swann: What happened here?
Norrington: It?s most likely the powder magazine. Merchant vessels run heavily armed.
Gibbs: A lot of good it did them. Everyone?s thinking it. I?m just saying it. Pirates.
Governor Swann: There?s no proof of that. It was probably an accident.
Norrington: Rouse the Captain immediately! Heave to and take in sail. Launch the boats.
Sailor: Heave to!
Governor Swann:
Young Will: Ahh!
Young
Young Will: W-W-Will Turner.
Young
Norrington: Has he said anything?
Young
Norrington: Take him below.
Governor Swann:
Governor Swann:Ah, Still abed at this hour? It?s a beautiful day. I have a gift for you.
Governor Swann: Isn?t it?
Governor Swann: Does a father need an occasion to dote upon his daughter? Go on. Actually, I, um?I had hoped you might wear it for the ceremony today.
Governor Swann: Captain Norrington ?s promotion ceremony.
Governor Swann: Commodore Norrington, as he?s about to become! A fine gentleman, don?t you think? He fancies you, you know.
Governor Swann: I?m told it?s the latest fashion in
Servant: Milord, you have a visitor.
Governor Swann: Ah, Mr. Turner, good to see you again.
Will: Good day, sir. I have your order.
Governor Swann: Well.
Will: The blade is folded steel. That?s gold filigree laid into the handle. If I may. Perfectly balanced. The tang is nearly the full width of the blade.
Governor Swann: Whoa! Impressive. Very impressive. Ah, now, Commodore Norrington is going to be very pleased with this. Do pass my compliments on to your Master. Hmm?
Will: I shall. A craftsman is always pleased to hear his work is appreciated.
Governor Swann: Oh,
Will: About me?
Governor Swann: Yes, well, is that entirely proper for you to??
Will: How could I forget, Miss Swann?
Will: At least once more, Miss Swann, as always.
Governor Swann: There. See? At least the boy has a sense of propriety. Now, we really must be going. There you are.
Governor Swann: Come along.
Will: Good day? ?
Harbormaster: What ? hey. Hold up, there, you. It?s a shilling to tie up your boat at the dock. And I shall need to know your name.
Jack: What d?ye say to three shillings? and we forget the name?
Harbormaster: Welcome to
Shouted orders to soldiers: Two paces march! Right about face! Present arms!
Murtogg: This dock is off limits to civilians.
Jack: I?m terribly sorry. I didn?t know. If I see one, I shall inform you immediately. 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 has to make sure this dock stays off limits to civilians.
Jack: It?s a fine goal to be sure but it seems to me that ahh? a ship like that makes this one here 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: I?ve heard of one, supposed to be very fast ? nigh un-catchable?the Black Pearl.
Mullroy: Ha! Well?there?s no real ship as can match the Interceptor.
Murtogg: Black
Mullroy: No, 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.
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 saying?
Murtogg: No.
Mullroy: Like I said, there?s no real ship as can match the Interceptor?
Murtogg: Hey! You! Get away from there.
Mullroy: You don?t have permission to be aboard there, mate.
Jack : I?m sorry, it?s just - it?s such a pretty boat. Ship.
Murtogg: What?s your name?
Jack: Smith. Or Smithy, if you like.
Mullroy: What?s your purpose in
Murtogg: Yeah. And no lies.
Jack: 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 : Unless, of course, he knew you wouldn?t believe the truth even if he told it to you.
Norrington: May I have a moment? Uh, you look lovely,
Norrington: Yes, I? I?m a bit nervous myself.
Jack: ?then they made me their chief.
Norrington:
Gillette: The rocks! Sir, it?s a miracle she missed them.
Jack: Will you be saving her then?
Mullroy: I can?t swim.
Jack: Pride of the King?s Navy you are. Do not lose these.
Murtogg: What was that? Ooh, I got her, not breathing!
Jack: Move!
Mullroy: Never would?ve thought of that.
Jack: Clearly you?ve never been to
Norrington: On your feet.
Governor Swann:
Governor Swann: Shoot him!
Norrington: I believe thanks are in order. Had a brush with the East India Trading company, did we? pirate?
Governor Swann: Hang him.
Norrington: Keep your guns on him, men. Gillette, fetch some irons. Well, well? Jack Sparrow, isn?t it?
Jack: Captain Jack Sparrow, if you please, sir.
Norrington: Well, I don?t see your ship?Captain.
Jack: I?m in the market? as it were.
Murtogg: He said he?d come to commandeer one.
Mullroy: Told ya he was telling the truth. These are his, sir.
Norrington: No additional shots nor powder, a compass that doesn?t point north. And I half expected it to be made of wood. You are without doubt the worst pirate I?ve ever heard of.
Jack: But you have heard of me.
Norrington: Carefully, Lieutenant.
Norrington: One good deed is not enough to redeem a man of a lifetime of wickedness.
Jack: Though it seems enough to condemn him.
Norrington: Indeed.
Jack: Finally.
Governor Swann: No, No! Don?t shoot!
Jack: I knew you?d warm up to me. Commodore Norrington, my effects, please, and my hat. Commodore!
Jack: Miss Swann, if you?d be so kind. Come, come, dear. We don?t have all day. Now if you?d be very kind. Easy on the goods, darling.
Jack: Sticks and stones, love. I save your life, you saved mine, we?re square. Gentlemen, m?lady, you will always remember this as the day that you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow! Whoa!
Governor Swann: Now, will you shoot him?
Jack: Ahhh!
Norrington: Open fire! On his heels. Gillette , Mr. Sparrow has a dawn appointment with the gallows. I would hate for him to miss it.
Soldier: Search upstairs. Look lively, men.
Jack : Whoa!
Will : Right where I left you. Not where I left you. You're the one they're hunting. The pirate.
Jack : You seem somewhat familiar. Have I threatened you before?
Will : I make a point of avoiding familiarity with pirates.
Jack : Ah, well, then it would be a shame to put a black mark on your record. So, if you'll excuse me? Do you think this wise, boy ? crossing blades with a pirate?
Will : You threatened Miss Swann .
Jack : Only a little. You know what you?re doing. I?ll give you that. Excellent form. But how?s your footwork? If I step here; very good. Now I step again. Ta. That is a wonderful trick? except once again you are between me and my way out. And now you have no weapon??????. Who makes all these?
Will : I do! And I practice with them? three hours a day!
Jack : 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 : I practice three hours a day so that when I meet a pirate, I can kill it!
Jack: Ah
Will : ?You cheated!
Jack : Pirate! ..Move away.
Will: No.
Jack : Please move.
Will: No! I cannot just step aside and let you escape.
Jack : This shot is not meant for you.
Soldier: There he is. Over here.
Norrington: Excellent work, Mr. Brown . You?ve assisted in the capture of a dangerous fugitive.
Mr. Brown : Just doing my civic duty, sir.
Norrington: Well, I trust you will always remember this as the day that Captain Jack Sparrow almost escaped. Take him away.
Prisoners: Come here, boy. Want a nice juicy bone? Come here. Come on
Jack : You can keep doing that forever, the dog is never going to move.
Prisoner: Oh, excuse us if we haven't resigned ourselves to the gallows just yet.
Estrella: There you go, Miss. It was a difficult day for you, I?m sure.
Estrella: Well, I meant you being threatened by that pirate. Sounds terrifying.
Estrella: But the Commodore proposed. Fancy that. Now, that?s a smart match, Miss, if it?s not too bold to say.
Estrella: Well, that Will Turner
