- Wes Genrette: Excuse me. I don't mean to interrupt.
- Pope Heyward: Uh, can we help you?
- Wes Genrette: Yes. I wanted to tell you all it's remarkable what you all did. Royal Merchant, El Dorado, Denmark Tanny... Impressive resume, impressive. I was wondering if you would all be so kind as to look at an item of mine.
- Cleo: Oh yeah? What type of item is that?
- Wes Genrette: It's a manuscript. I would investigate it myself, but I'm too long in the tooth. I need partners, and you all were first on my list.
- Pope Heyward: May I?
- Wes Genrette: I was hoping you would.
- [hands Pope the manuscript]
- Pope Heyward: [reading] 1718. Jeez, this is old. Exhibition notes, dates.
- John B Routledge: This is a captain's log. This shows the exact position of the ship.
- Wes Genrette: The exact location where the ship sailed and where it stopped.
