Foregone Conclusion |
| | Pirates of the Caribbean: The Price of Freedom / int_3bc88a7f |
comment |
Foregone Conclusion: Beckett's attempts at joining the British nobility will fail, since he won't be granted a Lordship until just before the events of Dead Man's Chest. The dramatic tension instead lies in what exactly went wrong the first time around (and what role Jack played in Beckett's failed bid). |

Passed-Over Promotion |
| | Pirates of the Caribbean: The Price of Freedom / int_4f8b159a |
comment |
Passed-Over Promotion: A variation. This is revealed to be what Beckett was alluding to in the deleted scene from At World's End about how Jack's "good deed" (liberating a cargo of slaves) cost him. More specifically, the financial and political damage from Jack's actions (coupled with the failure to secure the treasure of Zerzura) ended up costing Beckett a shot at a potential Lordship. It took Beckett over a decade to repair the damage and regain his standing enough to try again (and with success come Dead Man's Chest). Scant wonder he hates Jack so much. |
