Okay, I know I will probably come across as a total idiot with this question, but I am so desparate for help I will risk it!
I loved POTC 1. Loved everything about it!
However, POTC 2 didn't do much for me at all. I had trouble following it. After I saw it in the theater I never saw it again, until last night as DH and I sat down to watch it to refresh our memories before POTC 3 comes out this week.
After waching it again last night, some things became clearer...I think! :blush: (it gets tricky keeping up with who wants what...who wants the key, who wants the compass, and why each party wants what????).
But here's my big question:
At the end, when Will sees Elizabeth and Jack kissing, he is clearly hurt.
When they are at the witch's (or whatever) hut, Will appears sympathetic to Elizabeth for crying over Jack's "apparent" death.
Then when the witch (or whatever) asks who would go to the ends of the earth to save Jack, his crew and Elizabeth say absolutely, and so does Will. Why on earth would he want to 1) help Elizabeth and 2) save Jack after he betrayed him numerous times (sending him on board the Flying Dutchman, lying about the "debt", knocking him out with an oar on the beach, turning him over to the Commodore in order to save his own skin, kissing his fiance, etc).
That just makes no sense to me??? Am I missing something??? Why is he still playing the part of loyal friend?
