Jailbreak

Governor Swann sneaks into the prison to break Elizabeth out of jail.

Elizabeth: What are you doing?

Governor Swann: Breaking you out of jail. Duh.

Elizabeth: Why?

Governor Swann: I'm sending you to England.

Elizabeth: But Will's gone to find Jack!

Governor Swann: And?

Elizabeth: Will's a winner.

Governor Swann: Yeah, well, so is Charlie Sheen, apparently.

Governor Swann leads Elizabeth to a carriage. He tells her to wait inside while he goes to speak to the Captain.

Captain: (dies after having been shanked by Mercer)

Mercer: Oh hey, Governor. Lovely evening, isn't it?

Governor Swann is still staring at the dead guy.

Mercer: Yes, congrats, that man is dead. Very good. We're actually here to talk about the letter you wrote to the king. Incriminating, to say the least.

Long pause.

Governor Swann: What say we go back to my place for some scones? They're blueberry...

Mercer ignores him and opens the door of the carriage. Elizabeth isn't there.

Mercer: Where did she go?

Governor Swann: Um... Who? Went where?

Mercer and his cronies pin Governor Swann up against the carraige, and look like they're about to resort to Mafia tactics.

Governor Swann: Blueberry scones. The offer still stands.

Mercer: I'm allergic to blueberry.
