Pocahontas and John Smith bond quickly as they talk about their respective cultures.
| John Smith: | You have such unusual names here. Chickahominy. Qui-Quiyough-cohannock. Pocahontas. |
| Pocahontas: | You have the most unusual name too. John Smith. |

Meeko steals John's compass, which will be crucial for later on.

|
| John Smith: | There's so much we can teach you. We've improved the lives of savages all over the world! |
| Pocahontas: | Savages?! |
| John Smith: | Uh, not that you're a savage. |
| Pocahontas: | Just my people. |
| John Smith: | No, listen, that's not what I meant, let me explain— |
| Pocahontas: | Let go! |
| John Smith: | I'm not letting you leave! |
|
|
| John Smith: | Don't do this. Savage is just a word. A term for people who are uncivilised. |
| Pocahontas: | Like me? |
| John Smith: | When I say uncivilised what I mean is— |
| Pocahontas: | What you mean is, not like you. |
It's wonderful that when they're having this conversation, they contrasted Pocahontas' elegance
in climbing the tree with John Smith's own clumsiness.

Colours of the Wind.
Simply beautiful.

John Smith: I have to see you again.

Just a look at John's face, and we know that he's been deeply affected by Pocahontas'
spiritual wisdom.

Thomas tries to cheer John up, not knowing that he's already changed inside.

Wiggins: I... I... I made it myself!

|
| Ratcliffe: | Wiggins, why do you think those insolent heathens attacked us? |
| Wiggins: | Because we invaded their land and cut down their trees and dug up their earth? |
