Cutler Beckett: The East India Trading Company has need of your services. We wish for you to act as our agent in a business transaction with our mutual friend Captain Sparrow.

Will Turner: More acquaintance than friend. How do you know him?

Cutler Beckett: We've had dealings in the past. And we've each left out mark on each other.

Will Turner: What mark did he leave on you?

Cutler Beckett: By your efforts, Jack Sparrow was set free. I would like you to go to him and recover a certain property in his position.

Will Turner: Recover? At the point of a sword?

Cutler Beckett: Bargain! You will offer what amounts to a full pardon. Jack will be free. A privateer in the employ of England.

Will Turner: Somehow I doubt Jack will consider employment the same as being free.

Cutler Beckett: Freedom! Jack Sparrow is a dying breed. The world is shrinking. The blank edges of the map filled in. Jack must find his place in the new world or perish.
