Davy Jones raised the Pearl from the depths for Jack 13 years previous, on the condition that Jack would give Jones his soul after 13 years. Those 13 years have passed, so Jones has come to collect. I guess Jack would want to bargain Jones's heart for his freedom from the conditions of the agreement. He says that he doesn't want to kill it because killing Jones would mean that there would be nobody to call the Kraken (sp?) off.

MY question is, why did Will start fighting in that three-way swordfight? Wouldn't he have learned from the last movie that sometimes you have to wait to get what you want? It would've been much more in character for him, I think, to have gone along with Jack for the moment and tried to figure out a better way to get his ends... maybe convince Jack to bargain for Bootstrap's soul along with his own? I'll admit that Will is pretty straightforward and tends to rush right into things in the first movie, but I thought he'd grown out of that at least a little by the end of that film.
