9. Plot Summary
• In stifling Edwardian London, Wendy Darling (Rachel
Hurd-Wood) mesmerizes her brothers every night
with bedtime tales of swordplay, swashbuckling and
the fearsome Captain Hook (Jason Issacs). But the
children become the heroes of an even greater story,
when Peter Pan (Jeremy Sumpter) flies into their
nursery one night and leads them over moonlit
rooftops through a galaxy of stars and to the lush
jungles of Never Land where an ongoing war with the
evil Pirate Captain Hook is taking place. Wendy and
her brothers join Peter and the Lost Boys in an
exhilarating life ~ free of grown-up rules ~ while also
facing the inevitable showdown with Hook and his
bloodthirsty pirates.

19. Quote (3)
• “But he has made many sacrifices for his family, and put
away many dreams.”
• Mrs. Darling: There are many different kinds of bravery.
There’s the bravery of thinking of others before one’s self.
Now, your father has never brandished a sword nor … nor fired a
pistol, thank heavens. But he has made many sacrifices for
his family, and put away many dreams.
• Michael: Where did he put them?
• Mrs Darling: He put them in a drawer. And sometimes, late at
night, we take them out and admire them. But it gets harder 19
and harder to close the drawer … and he does. And that is why
he is brave.

20. Quote (4)
• “You called that a favour?”
• Smee: Pan did you a favour, did he, Captain?
• Hook: A favour? He threw my hand to a
crocodile, the beast liked it so much, it’s
followed me ever since, licking its lips for the
rest of me ….. YOU CALL THAT A
FAVOUR?
