Tia Dalma
[after overhearing Pintel question why she didn't just bring Jack back as she did Barbossa]

Because Barbossa was only dead. Jack Sparrow is taken, body and soul, to a place not of death but punishment. De worst fate a person can bring 'pon himself... stretching on forever...dat's what awaits at Davy Jone's locker.

Tia Dalma
[to Davy Jones]

The Brethren Court? All of dem... the last ting they will learn in dis life is how cruel I can be.

Tia Dalma

Many tings you were, Davy Jones, but never cruel.

Tia Dalma

Don't tell me you didn't enjoy it at de time.

Tia Dalma

You have corrupted your purpose and so yourself. And you did hide away what should always 'ave been mine.

Tia Dalma

I will be free and when I am, I would give you me heart and we would be together always. If only you had a heart to give.

Cold! No one said nothing about cold!

I'm sure there must be a good reason for making us suffer.

Why don't that gypsy lady just bring Jack back like she did Barbossa?

Tia Dalma

Because Barbossa was only dead! Jack Sparrow is taken, body and soul, to a place not of death but punishment. De worst fate a person can bring 'pon himself... stretching on forever...dat's what awaits at Davy Jone's locker. [Walks away from the two]

...Yeah. I knew there was a good reason.

Tia Dalma
[Tia Dalma sits in her cell aboard the Black Pearl with the locket open in the palm of her hand. She slowly closes it, then turns and stands as the music starts again. As she reaches the edge of her cell, the shadow of Davy Jones can be seen walking slowly towards her.]

My sweet... you come for me?

[stops]

You were expecting me.

Tia Dalma

It has been torture, trapped in this single form... cut off from the sea... from all that I love... from you.

[continues walking]

Ten years I devoted to the duty you charged me. Ten years I looked after those who'd died at sea. And finally, when we could be together again, you weren't there. [snaps his locket shut] Why weren't you there?

Tia Dalma

It's my nature. Would you love me if I was anything but what I am?

[turns abruptly and walks to the other end of her cell]

I do not love you.

Tia Dalma
[following him]

Many things you were, Davy Jones, but never cruel. You have corrupted your purpose and so yourself. And you did hide away what should always have been mine. [places a hand on his chest, causing the fishiness to fade away, then smiles and raises her hand to his cheek]

[startled, he, in turn, touches her face]

Calypso...

Tia Dalma

I will be free, and when I am, I would give you my heart and we would be together always. [removes her hand from his face and he fades back] If only you had a heart to give.

Tia Dalma
[Davy's claw closes around her neck] [scared]

Why did you come?

[releases her and tries to pull his claw back through the bars, but it is too large to fit, so he instead steps directly forward through the bars]

And what fate have you planned for your captors?

Tia Dalma

The Brethren Court? [walks back to the opposite end of her cell] All of them... the last thing they will learn in this life is how cruel I can be. [Davy Jones walks to the back of her cell and she turns] And what of your fate... Davy Jones?

[turns his head slightly in her direction]

My heart will always belong to you.
[Tia Dalma turns back towards the bars, smiling, as Davy walks through the back wall of her cell]
