   Ahem. "My Interesting Day at the Movies, by Shiroikarasu"
Well, well, well. I went to see Pirates of the Caribbean (forgive any spelling errors, I'm a bit spacey right now) with my mother today. It was funny and exciting and violent, and had not one, but TWO bishounen in it. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the end of the movie. Here is what happened.

Near the end, when the cursed pirates are crawling up into their ship-- yeah, around that point somewhere, I saw out of the corner of my eye a figure falling face-forward on the steps to my right. This was in the theatre, not the movie. At first my thoughts were, "OH MY GOD, SOMEONE'S DYING!!! AAAAHHHH!!!!" and, "It's starting to remind me of our Christmas concert last year..." Then I took a closer look to discover it was an elderly man, and there was blood all over his pants and shoes. I was internally freaking out, but stayed calm outside to maintain remaining dignity. My mom went over to find out what was wrong.
The man had come to consciousness again quickly, and my mom knew what was wrong (thank heavens). The other people left the theatre, all three of 'em or so, so she sat down next to him to keep him calm while someone got an usher. Apparently my granddad had the same problem a few years ago, some problem with the intestines and rectal bleeding or something like that, so she was cool as the proverbial cucumber. The ushers came, and it turned out the man's grandson was there also, a boy about my age (for all that tells you) who had been to the hospital recently because of a really bad sunburn.
The ushers called an ambulance, and we got a rescue squad in eventually, though the man's condition wasn't serious, just neded some fluids and tests and he would be fine. The boy's grandmother was contacted and she came to pick him up and be with her husband. All the while I sat there and did virtually nothing, while the movie was stopped during some interesting-sounding fight scene I couldn't watch. I was proud of my mom though, staying calm in a frightening situation and actually being a help when the ambulance was called.
The conclusion of this story: Could someone please tell me how the movie ended? How did Sparrow get off? And how did Elizabeth get out of marrying the commador? What happened to those Black Pearl pirates and their curse? Tell me, please, and you will be rewarded... somehow.
