Antonio! My Friend! I am madly in love with the most perfect women, but I can't afford to woo her. You are my dearest friend, may you lend me the money
Bassanio, you know I would but my assets are tied up at sea. Shylocks the moneylender will help, his price will be high but don't worry, when my ships arrive I will pay him every penny of interest
Just last week you spat on me and called me a dog but you come asking me for a loan? Fine. But if you do not return it in three months I demand a pound of your flesh!
Bassanio relax my friend, I will have the money.
I suppose..... Now to my darling Portia
Sir Bassanio, to win the fair Porta's hand you must complete the riddle. Which box do you pick - Gold, silver or lead
I chose.......... Lead
Sir Bassanio that is correct. We will start on the Wedding preparations
Yes of course and as a gift to my betrothed I will marry her maid to my dear friend
I now pronounce you man and wife
I have to help Bassanio!
Sir, Antonio did not have the money. He has been arrested
Wait! My friend will pay! I' m ruined! My boats never came in!
Stop! You may only take a pound of flesh - any more and you will be breaking the agreement. Now arrest this man for attempted murder
Fair is fair. You never paid. I'm afraid you need to give up your pound of flesh
How can I thank you for saving my friend?
I'll take your ring as a thank you
Haha, I know where it is for I - along with my maid - saved your friend
