One Day
recap
After Will, Elizabeth, Barbossa, and the rest of Jack's swashbuckling crew rescued their Captain from the horrific depths of Davy Jones' Locker, they had set off to take back the sea that the pirates of the world had possessed for so many years from the grasps of Lord Cutler Beckett and the East India Trading Company. After all, if Beckett had control over the seas, all pirates were inevitably doomed. Once they had caught up with the Dutchman and the Endeavor (Beckett's ship), Jack and the crew battled with both Jones' crew and the EITC (East India Trading Company). During the battle, Will and Elizabeth were spontaneously married by Barbossa since Beckett had previously robbed them of their proper wedding when they were both arrested for helping Jack escape jail. Jack had seized the heart of Davy Jones and was trying to decide what to do: stab the heart and become immortal, no, don't stab it because it's too big of a burden for Captain Jack Sparrow. He can't be bound to such a duty for an entire decade. Meanwhile, Will Turner was fighting Jones when Jones stabbed Will in the chest, very near his heart. Elizabeth cried out for her love though she could not help him, she wept as she watched her husband slowly slip into unconsciousness. Jack finally made his decision. He helped Will's hand to grasp the handle of Jack's broken sword and with Will's fingers wrapped tightly around it, Jack plunged the sharp tip into the heart of Davy Jones. The last thing Will remembered hearing as he went out completely was the Dutchman's crew chanting "part of the crew, part of the ship, part of the crew, part of the ship." Turner's heart was carved out and placed in the chest that once held the heart of Davy Jones. Will was now the captain of the dreaded Flying Dutchman for the ship must always have a captain. This meant that Will was bound to the Flying Dutchman for ten years with the duty of ferrying the souls of those that die at sea to the land of the dead, but where they were bound his wife, Elizabeth, could accompany him. Will came to realization that he would have to leave his beautiful new bride in the land of the living for ten years while he was stuck with his burden. In return for him having to carry out this duty for so long, he and his beloved had one day, and one day only, to be together before he had to depart.
