* When Salazar recounts how young Jack Sparrow ruined his life, he recalls how the young pirate called out to him from the ship's crows nest "''like a birdy''". And that is how Captain Jack ''Sparrow'' got his name.
* Granted there's [[FauxAffablyEvil rage and vengefulness behind his words]], it's too cute and too funny how Salazar keeps pronouncing "Sparrow". Especially when meeting Jack all these years, he says it like he were cooing at a little pet canary in a cage rather than a hated rival he's hunted for.

* Carina decides to drop some LastWords, screams to silence the crowd, and proceeds to insult their intelligence using complicated words. Then Jack barges in ("I'm about to lose my head, I have to take precedence!"). The two then go about arguing over who has the more important execution going on, while the crowd looks back and forth between them each time they talk, like spectators at a tennis match. [[SpannerInTheWorks This unwittingly allows Henry and Jack's crew to get into position for a rescue attempt that may not have gone off otherwise.]]
