Scene 10: (Revelations and Tortuga )
Will : [sharpening his sword] When I was a lad living in England , my mother raised me by herself. After she died, I came out here, looking for my father.
Jack : Is that so?
Will: My father, Will Turner . At the jail, it was only after you learned my name that you agreed to help. Since that’s what I wanted, I didn’t press the matter. I’m not a simpleton, Jack. You knew my father.
Jack : I knew ‘im. Probably one the few who knew him as William Turner . Everyone else just called him Bootstrap or Bootstrap Bill.
Will: Bootstrap?
Jack : Good man. Good pirate. I swear you look just like him.
Will : It’s not true. He was a merchant sailor. A good, respectable man who obeyed the law.
Jack : He was a bloody pirate, a scallywag.
Will : My father was not a pirate. [takes out his sword]
Jack : Put it away, son. It’s not worth you getting beat again.
Will : You didn’t beat me. you ignored the rules of engagement. In a fair fight, I’d killed you.
Jack : Then that's not much incentive for me to fight fair, then, is it? [moves one of the sails so that the yard catches Will and swings him out over the sea] Now, as long as you’re just hanging there, pay attention. 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 someday. Now, me, for example, I can let you drown but I can’t bring this ship into Tortuga all by me onesy, savvy? So… [swings him back on board and offers him his sword] can you sail under the command of a pirate? Or can you not?
Will : [takes the sword] Tortuga ?
Jack : Tortuga . [on the island] More importantly, it is indeed a sad life that has never breathed deep this sweet, proliferous bouquet that is Tortuga , savvy? What do you think?
Will : It'll linger.
Jack : I’ll tell you mate, if every town in the world were like this one, no man would ever feel unwanted.
Jack : Scarlett ! [she slaps him] Not sure I deserved that. Giselle!
Giselle:
Who was she?!
Jack : What? [she slaps him] I may have deserved that.
