2 quotesDock Regulations and Unexpected Guests
Murtogg
This dock is off-limits to civilians.
Jack Sparrow
I'm terribly sorry, I didn't know. If I see one, I shall inform him 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?
[the pair block Jack's path]
Murtogg
Someone's got to make sure that this dock stays off-limits to civilians.
Sparrow
It's a fine goal, to be sure. But it seems to me... that a ship like that one, makes this one here seem 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.
Sparrow
I've heard of one, supposed to be very fast, nigh uncatchable: the Black Pearl.
Mullroy
Well, there's no real ship as can match the Interceptor.
[laughs]
Murtogg
Black Pearl is a real ship.
Mullroy
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 the 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 not crewed by the damned and captained by a man so evil that Hell itself spat him back out couldn't possibly have black sails, therefore couldn't possibly be any ship other than the Black Pearl, is that what you're saying?
[sarcastic]
Murtogg
No.
[nods]
Mullroy
Like I said. There's no real ship, as can match the Interceptor... Oi! You! Get away from there! You don't have permission to be aboard there, mate!
[notices Jack on the ship; he and Murtogg run over and aim their muskets at him]
Jack
I'm sorry, it's just such a pretty boat. Ship!
Mullroy
What's your name?
Jack
Smith. Or Smithy, if you'd like.
Mullroy
What's your purpose in Port Royal, "Mister Smith"?
Murtogg
Yeah, and no lies!
Jack
All right; I confess. It is my intention to commandeer this ship, pick up a crew in Tortuga, and then proceed to raid, pillage, and otherwise pilfer my weasly black guts out.
Murtogg
I said no lies!
[stunned]
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.

Jack Sparrow's Market for a Ship
James Norrington
Well, well. Jack Sparrow, isn't it?
Jack Sparrow
Captain Jack Sparrow, if you please, sir.
Norrington
I don't see your ship, Captain.
Jack Sparrow
I'm in the market, as it were.
Murtogg
He said he's come to commandeer one.
Mullroy
Told you he was telling the truth! These are his, sir.
[hands Norrington Jack's effects]
Norrington
No additional shot, 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.
[examines Jack's pistol; opens Jack's compass; partially draws Jack's sword; smirks]
Sparrow
But you have heard of me.
Elizabeth Swann
Commodore, I really must protest! Pirate or not, this man saved my life.
Norrington
One good deed is not enough to save a man from a lifetime of wickedness.
Sparrow
Though it seems enough to condemn him.
Norrington
Indeed.
