"Admiral, I insist you release me at once!"

James Norrington stared at Lord Cutler Beckett as if he'd never seen him before. And maybe, he thought, he hadn't.

"That's an order!"

"I'm afraid I don't take orders from you anymore," Norriongton said. "I regret that I never had an opportunity to formally tender my resignation."

"This is outrageous!" Beckett snapped. "This is treason!"

"Ultimately, we all have to answer to a higher authority."

Beckett raised his chin. "There is no higher authority."

"I'm afraid not." Norrington allowed himself a humorless smile. "You're dead. Welcome to the Flying Dutchman, Your Lordship."
