This article is about the soundtrack cue. You may be looking for the phrase, "Walk the plank".

"Walk the Plank" is a musical theme credited to Klaus Badelt for Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. It appears as track six on the film's soundtrack, at 1:58 in length.

The track segues in from "Swords Crossed", presenting striking chords for a brief rendition of the cursed crew's theme. It drops into a mournful tune (00:14) before increasing suspensefully (00:26) until a rendition of Jack Sparrow's waltzing theme on violins (01:02). It builds (01:45) into a dramatic climax before lapsing into silence for the remaining seconds.

Sparrow's theme plays during his attempt, along with William Turner, to commandeer the HMS Interceptor.
