( Based on the original, early POTC 5 script [] Maybe Sparrington? )
The last time anyone has ever seen, or heard of, Admiral James Norrington, was during the 'War Against Piracy', where he had unfortunately met his fate by Bootstrap Bill Turner... or was it?
During one of Captain Jack Sparrow's hallucinations, after getting swallowed up into a tsunami, the Captain saw the Admiral beckoning to him with the words: " Jack! Over here! A short drop and a sudden stop! ". Then, the Admiral shot his pistol, inside his longboat, and shot backwards impossibly fast.
Now, the infamous Admiral had came back to life, teaming up with both Captain Hector Barbossa and... Captain Jack Sparrow, as odd as it may be. As well with the Black Pearl crew; Joshamee Gibbs, Pintel, Ragetti, Cotton and his parrot since Cotton can't speak, Marty, Scrum, Pike, Cremble, Bollard, and a few others.
