The Princess Bride
by William Goldman
A mysterious man in black challenges a criminal mastermind to a deadly game of logic to rescue a kidnapped princess. While the antagonist believes he is outsmarting his opponent through a series of complex deductions and a secret glass-switch, the stakes are revealed to be far more dangerous than he anticipated.
Elizabeth Swann confronts Lord Cutler Beckett in his office to negotiate for the Letters of Marque. Holding him at gunpoint, she attempts to trade information about Jack Sparrow's compass for her and Will Turner's freedom, while Beckett reveals his true, more expansive imperial ambitions.
On the deck of the Black Pearl, Jack Sparrow attempts to seduce Elizabeth Swann by claiming they share the same selfish nature. Elizabeth skillfully turns the tables, using Jack's own logic of 'curiosity' to challenge him to prove he is actually a good man, right before Jack is terrified by the reappearance of the Black Spot.
