Jack sighed as he watched Katherine pace and chatter nervously. He stood and walked over to her as she peered out the window. He gently turned her to face him, his hands on her shoulders. He looked her in the eyes reassuringly. "It'll be alright. Just calm yourself. We'll figure something out. Don't fret. As for Scarlett and Charles, we'll get them soon enough. Savvy?" He gave her a kind smile before turning to Barbossa.
"She raises good points, as you most likely well know." He paused a moment. "And now I have a point to add. Why am I still in this dress?" He walked away from the window and began his attempt to untie his corset. His attempt failed. "Alright," he said with an exaggerated sigh as he turned back to Katherine. "How the bloody hell do you women wear these things? Mind helping me out, dearie?"
