In this episode, Justin continues to cover Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. We are finally reintroduced to Jack Sparrow, who is currently in Davy Jones' Locker. We see many Jack Sparrows on the Black Pearl, and thousands of rocks that turn into crabs. The rest of the crew arrives in the locker, and they meet up with Jack who thinks they are a hallucination. And after Jack Sparrow and Hector Barbossa fight to control the Black Pearl, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann have a much needed chat below decks. The crew of the Pearl also sees souls who died at sea, and Elizabeth sees her father. Listen to Justin break down how heartbreaking and magnificent this scene is. The crew also begins to rock the ship after Jack discovers "up is down." And once we're back in the real world, the crew goes ashore and Jack lays eyes on the dead corpse of the Kraken. Jack and Barbossa share an absolutely fantastic scene, ending with Jack saying, "the world's still the same, there's just less in it."
