This is the first episode of National Treasure: Orient Expedition.
==Story==
===Africa===
*Narrator: Ben Gates has just discovered ancient treasure... (Ben is shown finding a horn)
*Ben: Alright! I've found it at last - the Horn of Africa! 
*Narrator: But where Ben is, can Ian Howe be far behind? (Ian is shown hiding) (Ian turns on water system) 
*Ian: In minutes, I will have the horn. And Ben - Well, he could use a bath anyway... (temple gets flooded) (Ben grabs on to a hanging rope) 
*Ben: Yikes! That was close! (Abigail comes in riding in a boat)
*Abigail: (to Ben) Quit hanging around, Ben! Riley needs us in Venice. 
===House in Venice===
(Riley is shown holding a piece of paper)
*Riley: (to Ben & Abigail) This was found buried in the back garden of this house, which was home to the famous explorer Marco Polo.
*Abigail: It looks like part of a map, but what do those Chinese characters mean?
*Riley: It's a message from Marco Polo. Translated, it reads: My greatest secret, I take with me, but leave for a clue for the man who sees more than others see, & knows the world to be more than land & sea. (to Ben) Ben, this is a clue - a clue to the legendary treasure of Marco Polo! 
*Ben: I believe you, Riley. But how do solve the clue? (looks at the paper) Marco Polo visited China in the 13th century & wrote all about it, but I don't think the clue would be a book. (looks at a map on a frame) Hmm, this map looks like something is missing from it. Maybe... I've got it! Put these two pieces together & you have a map leading to... India! (Riley is looking at the paper) 
*Riley: These Chinese characters tell an amazing story... As a reward for his services to the Khan, Marco Polo was given a golden dragon. 
*Abigail: But why didn't he bring it home with him? 
*Ben: It was too big, so he left the golden dragon behind, hidden in a secret chamber in the Khan's palace. Then he embarked on the two year journey back to Italy... 
===Town in Venice===
*Riley: (to Ben) The first treasure is hidden in India... The clue says it hides "The Sting of the Jungle"! 
*Ben: What are we waiting for? Let's go! 
*Abigail: I'm coming too. An Orient expedition to find Marco Polo's treasure - what a story! (Ian is shown hiding behind some bushes) (Ian runs to his car) 
*Ian: (chuckles) I'll be coming too, though Ben Gates won't know that until it's too late! I've always wanted a golden dragon of my own...
