(Sitting at the table.) Raffles to William: We need to find a trading spot that is between Cathay and India which are our main trading ports. William: Actually I am ahead of you I have already found an island that is in between Cathay and India. Raffles: Where is the location of this island you speak of? Williams: Well it is right over here! See? Raffles: When shall we set of for this new island? Williams: Well Sir the problem with that is that there is a tribe living there, they are known as the Temenggong people. Raffles: So what? Can't we just tell them to leave and find shelter elsewhere? Williams: Certainly not Sir! The Temenggong people do not own the island, the Sultan of Malay rules the island. Raffles: Let us reason with him to give us this island. Hopefully this plan will work, if not we will have to find another way. Williams: Alright then I will go along with your plan this time. Oh! by the way in the excitement we have forgotten to get permission from Lord Hastings to reason with these people! Raffles: Alrighty then what are you waiting for don't just stand there contact Lord Hastings immediately. William: Of course Sir! Lord Hastings: Yes what is it I hope it is important because I am a busy guy!!!!!! Raffles: Well Lord, we have found an island that is in the Straits of Malacca which will be perfect for our merchants, and they have lots of spices that are appealing to us! Lord Hastings: Well this sounds good fine I assure you that the contract will be ready before you set of for the new island. Lord Hastings and Raffles sign the paper. (They have arrived on the island.) Lord Hastings: Are you sure there are people here, I don't see anyone!!! Raffles: Yes, there are people on this island see here they come! Lord Hastings:Ummm Hello we have a deal for you. Cheif: Sorry we do not own the island the Sultans Brother owns this island. (The Sultans brother suddenly appears.) Sultans Brother: To what do we owe your visit? Raffles: Well we have some papers for you to sign would you be interested to give us this land. Sultans Brother: Why should I? Raffles: Because when this island becomes rich you will get part of the profit. Sultans Brother: Fine then I will sign your papers but you promise I will get my part of the profit. Raffles: Of course you will. (The Sultans Brother finally signs the paper.) Raffles:Thank you for your time Good bye! Sultans Brother: Goodbye then, but remember I will return for my part of the profit. They all shake hands! Raffles and Lord Hastings leave the scene.
