John Carter:
[Seeing the carvings in the temple of the Tharks] Can you read it?

Dejah Thoris:
It's old scripture.

John Carter:
What's it mean?

Dejah Thoris:
Don't rush me. "To those who seek the solace of eternity, may journey down the river through the sacred Gates of Iss and find everlasting peace in the bosom of Issus".

John Carter:
The Gates of Iss.

Dejah Thoris:
What if I could take you there?

John Carter:
What if I didn't trust you?

Dejah Thoris:
Then we'd be even. I can take you to the gates, to the answers that you seek. A way back to Jasoom.

John Carter:
Earth.

Dejah Thoris:
Earth. So this I can to repay you from getting us out of here. Assuming that you can.

John Carter:
Deal.

[Places his hand in front of her. Dejah looks confused]

John Carter:
Go on. Shake it. It's a sign of trust.

[Dejah takes his thumb and gives his hand a light shake]

John Carter:
Good enough.
