This boy was a member of the Pelegostos tribe during the time of Lord Cutler Beckett's occupation of Port Royal. The Pelegostos were convinced that Jack Sparrow was a God in human form, and planned to release him from his mortal coil by ceremonially ingesting his flesh. This boy was seen anticipating this ceremony with a knife and fork and was confused when Jack attempted to escape, likely thinking (as the other Pelegostos thought) that such a ceremony would be beneficial to a God such as they thought Jack to be.
