Scene 1: A Dream Solely to Establish Characters and Give A Back-story That Won't Make Sense Until Much Later
Young Elizabeth: standing on bow of ship This is so boring… I wish a pirate would come along and make things interesting. Maybe if I sing about them they will come… Starts to sing overrated pirate song. Gibbs grabs her shoulder and she gasps! in surprise
Gibbs: Shut up, Elizabeth! Pirates are evil and they could be anywhere! You don't really want them to attack us.
Norrington: Hands off my future-fiancée bitch!
Gibbs: But she's going to bring pirates upon us! It's bad luck, and we all know how superstitious I am. And we're in some creepy fog! If nothing else, THAT should tell you something bad is going to happen.
Norrington: Psh, whatever.
Gibbs: It's also bad luck to have a woman on board the ship. Look at all this bad luck! rubs lucky horseshoe
Young Elizabeth: I think pirates are hella hot. I want to meet one.
Norrington: No way, pirates are gross. They don't have any concern for personal hygiene. Upstanding respectable men, that's who you should fancy, Elizabeth. And once you realize that it won't bother you at all that I intend to kill every pirate I meet. Elizabeth looks at Gibbs who is still rubbing his horseshoe and seems to be chanting under his breath
Governor Swann: Okay guys, I don't think my daughter should hear about death and stuff. She is much too fragile and she must be uneducated and sheltered her whole life.
Norrington: Terribly sorry. It won't happen again. mutters: In your company
Young Elizabeth: I think it's tight.
Governor Swann: You'll change your mind once I keep you so innocent you become brainwashed.
Young Elizabeth: Goes to side of ship to sulk. She sees a parasol and then a boy floating on a piece of broken ship ZOMYGAWHD! There's a boy floating around!
Norrington: Man overboard! Get him up here! I must be a hero or I'll never be Commodore! Magically, they pull him on board Thank God he's breathing! If he was dead, this might not count as an act of heroism!
Gibbs: spots burning ship Jesus Christ, look at that!
Governor Swann: WFT happened?!
Norrington: They were probably stupid and let their ship blow up.
Gibbs: NO! IT WAS PIRATES! I TOLD YOU THERE WERE PIRATES! I'M NOT CRAZY! I'M NOT! frantically rubs horseshoe and chants some more
Governor Swann: Chillax Gibbs, there's no proof it was pirates.
Norrington: Wake up the captain. We have to tell him how I was so brave and heroic in this tragedy!
Sailor: Heave to!
Governor Swann: Elizabeth, you watch out for him. That way you will be occupied and stop thinking about things that aren't proper. She nods and walks over to the young Will
Young Elizabeth: Checks out the boy. His eyes suddenly pop wide open and he gasps loudly! Dude, calm down, you're fine now. We rescued you, my name's Elizabeth Swann.
Young Will: completely love struck W-W-Will Turner.
Young Elizabeth: I'm gonna take care of you, Will. Will gets so excited at the thought, he faints. Elizabeth sees shiny!coin and rips it off his neck. Lyke, no way! You're a pirate! Norrington approaches and Elizabeth hides shiny!coin.
Norrington: He's still alive right?
Young Elizabeth: Uh-huh. His name is Will, which I'm assuming is short for William, and his last name is Turner. He definitely didn't have any kind of shiny!coin on him or anything, and he's totally not a pirate.
Norrington: to sailors Alright. Get him off-deck.
Elizabeth
studies shiny!coin and looks up just in time to see EVIL BLACK SAILED
SHIP MOVING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION! End dream
