Gillette

"Gillette, Mr. Sparrow has a dawn appointment with the gallows. I would hate for him to miss it."

- James Norrington

Gillette was an officer in the Royal Navy, holding the rank of Lieutenant while stationed at Port Royal. He served as second-in-command to Captain, and later Commodore, James Norrington.

Lieutenant Gillette was present at Norrington's promotion ceremony at Fort Charles and later joined in the search for Jack Sparrow following the pirate's escape from Norrington and his men at the harbor. After the Black Pearl attacked Port Royal, Gillette and his men were stationed aboard HMS Dauntless, and were forced to concede control of the vessel over to Sparrow and his accomplice, Will Turner, during their attempt to reach Tortuga. Gillette warned Norrington of the situation, but Jack and Will duped them all by commandeering the HMS Interceptor and leaving the Dauntless dead in the water. With the rudder chain disabled, the vessel was unable to turn, and crushed Gillette's longboat as he and his men attempted to return to the ship. The Lieutenant escaped, and returned to Port Royal.

He later participated in the fight against Hector Barbossa's cursed pirates aboard the Dauntless off Isla de Muerta. He survived, and was present at Sparrow's execution at Port Royal. However, Sparrow managed to escape with the aid of Will Turner, and fled to the Black Pearl. Gillette looked to the Commodore for orders to begin pursuit, but Norrington held off the chase.
