Niccol? Polo:
[on their knees] We are still new to the ways of your kingdom.

Yusuf:
Value is the first thing you seek. Risk, the second. The silk worm is sacred, more valuable than gems and gold, Master Polo. Its theft is punishable by death.

Niccol? Polo:

Kublai Khan:

Niccol? Polo:

Kublai Khan:
Where is this man now?

Maffeo Polo:

Kublai Khan:
And I'm quite confident neither shall you.
