  • The Ambush at the Gallows was a skirmish that took place during the hanging of the notorious pirate Jack Sparrow at Fort Charles. Keeping his appointment with the gallows, Jack was about to be killed in front of the town people, presided by Commodore James Norrington and Governor Weatherby Swann. Elizabeth pleaded for his life, but Governor Swann said they were all bound by the law. After the hangman's noose was put on Jack, Will Turner came to his rescue.

Untying himself, Jack fought with Will against Norrington's men, until they were surrounded by soldiers. When Commodore Norrington confronted the two, Elizabeth joined Will in standing in front of Jack. Just then, as he bade his friends farewell, Jack fell into the harbor, where the Black Pearl was waiting for him. Noticing Elizabeth loved Will, Norrington wished them a happy life, and allowed Jack to have a one day head start before pursuing him.
