Tardos Mors:
Dejah, ever since you were a little girl you've always met the expectations placed on you...

[Dejah gently places her hand on his]

Tardos Mors:
It's Sab's terms.

Dejah Thoris:
What are they?

Tardos Mors:
He will spare Helium if you accept his hand in marriage.

[Places his hand upon hers but Dejah quickly takes it away]

Dejah Thoris:
No. He is a monster! You must refuse him!

Tardos Mors:
He's already on his way here.

Dejah Thoris:
But all of my work... I just need a little more time.

Tardos Mors:
Dejah.

Dejah Thoris:
How can you... You can't just bow down to Zodanga!

Tardos Mors:
A wedding will save the city!

Dejah Thoris:
Perhaps but it could lose you Barsoom!

Tardos Mors:
Dejah.

Dejah Thoris:
With no one to stop Zodanga will be the beginning of the end! You are a Jeddak of Helium! You must find another way!

Tardos Mors:
There is not another way!
