Will: Jack. Listen....the Compass. That's all I need. Jack, Elizabeth is in danger. We were arrested, for helping you. She faces the gallows!
One of the Cannibals indicates Will's leg and rubs his tummy, the meaning is clear: This is good eating. The Warrior Cannibal nods and makes a throat-slitting gesture. Jack shrugs, nods and says something and the Cannibals laugh.
He makes a sweeping gesture to take him away, the Cannibals cheer, and grab Will.
Will: What did you tell them? No!
Jack doesn't answer as they drag Will past, he whispers out of the corner of his mouth two words.
Jack: Save me
Will frowns as Jack is the Chief, "what's going on?" was Will's thoughts. But there is real desperation in Jack's eyes. Will is pulled away to a chasm with two cages, made of bones and filled with pirates.
It hang suspended from a rope across a deep gorge. Leech, in one cage, hollers across to the other.
Leech: Gibbs! We've got a plan!
Blue: Oh here we go again...
Gibbs, dehydrated and banged up, hollers back.
Gibbs: What is it?
Leech: Never mind!
Blue: For God's Sake -_-
Gibbs: [Sighs] Ah, Will, you shouldn't have come.
Will holds out Gibbs' flask, and the older man changed his mind and thought that maybe its good he came.
Will is in the cage with Gibbs, Blue, Cotton, Marty, and other crew members.
The other cage holds Leech and the rest of the crew.
Will: Why would he do this to you? If Jack is the Chief-!
Gibbs tries to drink, but his flask is empty.
Gibbs: Aye, the Pelegostos made Jack their Chief, but he stays Chief for only
so long as he acts like a Chief...which means he cannot do anything they think a Chief ought not to do.
Blue: Blasphemy, if you ask me
Will: He's a captive, then, as much as
any of us.
Gibbs: Worse, as it turns out.
Blue: Much worse
Gibbs: The Pelegostos believe that Jack is a God, trapped in human form, they intend to do Jack the honor of
releasing him from his fleshy prison.
Will frowns, so Cotton helps by mimicking eating with a knife.
Gibbs: They'll roast and eat him. It's a
deeply held religious belief. Or, we
figure, maybe they just get awful
hungry.
Will: Where's the rest of the crew?
Gibbs: These cages we're in? Wasn't built 'til after we got here.
Will looks, the cage is made of bones and he pulls his hand away. Blue sighs and mentions how it is what it is while Gibbs glances into the sky.
Gibbs: The feast starts when the sun sets. Jack’s life will end....when the drums stop...
The sun drops toward the horizon, and both Pintel and Ragetti are silhouetted against the sun, dressed in colored pirate garb reminiscent of jail clothes, rowing a very small rowboat. Ragetti has a book open in front of him.
Ragetti: And I say it was Divine Providence what escaped us from jail.
Pintel: And I say it was me being clever.
