[Fievel sits alone while Tiger is asleep]

Tiger:
(snoring and unintelligent muttering)

Cholena:
What's the matter, Zelozelos?

Fievel:
Oh, I just was thinking. We're no better than Scuttlebutt. See? We found this map, and it told us about your... treasure. That's why we came; to grab it for ourselves... just like Scuttlebutt.

Cholena:
You did not know we were here. You are not thieves.

Fievel:
[sternly] Yes, we are!

Tiger:
[sighing and muttering]

Cholena:
Come with me, Zelozelos. [takes Fievel's hand. Scene switches to her showing Fievel their treasure.] This... is our greatest treasure.

Fievel:
But, it's just a string of beads.

Cholena:
It is wampum. It is the history of our tribe told in symbols.

Fievel:
W-We risked our lives for that?

Cholena:

Cholena:
Do not be hasty, Zelozelos. [Fievel tears up] This dream of yours is a wonderful thing, even if it has not always been taken to heart. [wipes Fievel's tears away]
