Joseph: King of Dreams


 * ''[fist lines, as the falcon flies at the night sky]
 * Jacob: It's taking so long.
 * Judah: [chuckling] Look at yourself, Father. You would think this was your first child. Tell me, were you this nervous when I was born?
 * Jacob: Well, yes and no. It was different with your mother. But with Rachel, we gave up hope. We were told she could never have children.
 * ''[they hear a baby crying]
 * Brother: Father! It's a boy! Father, it's a boy! It's a boy.
 * ''[the baby continues crying]
 * Jacob: My boy! [he goes off]
 * ''[the baby continues crying]
 * Reuben: Can you believe it? Rachel had a baby.
 * Judah: I guess it is a miracle.
 * ''[they all walk to the baby, with Jacob opening the curtain, looking at Rachel holding a baby]
 * Jacob: O God, who is the Father of us all, you have blessed me with a gift beyond all measure. Within a barren wife, amid to the twilight skies of my life, you've placed a treasure. [singing] A brightly shining star where there was none, you have granted us a son.
 * Rachel: [singing] Dreams do come true. Look at you.
 * Jacob: Joseph.
 * Together: [singing] Our baby brother, he is special. He is one of us we'll keep him from harm. And we will teach him.
 * Jacob: [singing] I will teach him all he needs to know. He'll stand apart from other men.
 * Together: [singing] We'll stand beside him and together, we will show him what it means to be a family.
 * Jacob: Ah. Ooh.
 * Father: You are a miracle child, you are the best, you shine the brightest.
 * ''[baby Joseph laughs]
 * Father: [singing] Your days.
 * Jacob: Joseph.
 * Father: [singing] Will be cloudiness.
 * Jacob: Come to Papa.
 * Father: [singing] And mild.
 * ''[baby Joseph walks to Jacob]
 * Father: [singing] Your trails be blessed, your trials the lightest.
 * ''[Joseph grows up]
 * Father: [singing] You were made for better things, you will share the air of kings. You were born and fortune smiled, for you are a miracle child.
 * Rachel: [begins playing on the harp, by making a coat, then singing] The sun will rise within your eyes. The moon will light your smile, and Heaven grace your gentle face. With power to beguile. [putting a blanket around, speaking] Good night, Joseph. [gives him a kiss, then she continues singing] You will wade through the river of sorrows warm and dry.
 * Joseph: Keep it steady.
 * Father: [singing] And angels will guide your tomorrows, this I prophesy.
 * Both: [singing] For you are a miracle child. You are the best.
 * Judah: Hey, what are you doing?
 * ''[breaks the part of the well, making a river]
 * Both: [singing] You shine the brightest. Your days will be cloudless and mild. Your trails be blessed. Your trials the lightest. You were made for better things. You will share the air of kings you were born and fortune smiled.
 * ''[the brothers shout]
 * Both: For you are a miracle child.
 * ''[Jacob takes the ball to Judah, then throwing up and down, then looking at Jacob and Rachel, holding a coat, then putting it on]
 * Joseph: [singing] Dearest Mother, beloved Father, a coat of colors bright as butterfly wings. To remind me, things you've told me all my life, I am special, I am smart, I am somehow set apart, petty rules and limitations don't apply. For I am a miracle child. I can't be harmed.
 * Judah: [scooping the well] Sorry.
 * Joseph: [continues singing] I'm wrapped in rainbow. Though fate can be heartless and wild. [speaking] Come on. Let's play. [continues singing] My life's been charmed.
 * Boy: Come on!
 * Joseph: [singing] And shall remain so.
 * Jacob: [to Joseph] Come with me, Joseph.
 * Joseph: [singing] Not to struggle, but to soar. To my fortune reconciled. For I am a miracle child! You won't see me bent over double, in darkess and rubble, where mountains of trouble are piled! I was destined to fly, watch me light up the sky! For I am a miracle child!
 * ''[cut to Joseph in a tent, sleeping, with the coat like a blanket, while breathing heavily, grunting, then cut to a painting, while opening the eye with the sheep appearing, then taking a sunflower, then waking up, looking at the sheep while getting up, then running with an animal growling, then looking at the wolves, then barking at Joseph, then running away, going through a hay, then grabbing a leash, then putting it down, then walking to a sheep]
 * Joseph: [whispering] Hey. [he tries to pet the sheep, then the wolf appears, chomping, then screaming while waking up, with Joseph being tied up] No! Stop! What's wrong?
 * Judah: What's going on? What did she say? [lights up a fire] What's the matter?
 * Joseph: It was wolves. There were wolves everywhere. They were coming out of the shadows. I was surrounded. They were all around me and...
 * Judah: That's it?
 * Levi: You woke us for a dream? Ooh!
 * Jacob: [to the men] Quiet down! You want to scare the sheep?
 * Joseph: The sheep. The ram. [getting up, then running, then opening a curtain] The wolves killed the ram. It was dead. I... I don't understand. It all seemed so real.
 * Jacob: Everything is fine, Joseph.
 * Rachel: [puts the coat on Joseph] It's over. There's nothing to worry about.
 * Jacob: And, you boys, since you're up, make yourselves useful. [gets the stick] Get to work before sunup. [throws a stick at Judah]
 * ''[the brothers groan]
 * Judah: [to Joseph] Thanks.
 * ''[the brothers go inside a tent]
 * Jacob: [to Joseph] Joseph, where do think you're going?
 * Joseph: Um, I, uh...
 * Jacob: [grabs a map to Joseph] You have studies.
 * Joseph: But, Father, I wanna go with them.
 * Jacob: Look. You know they have their work and you have yours.
 * Joseph: But why?
 * Jacob: Because you do. Because you do. Because you're a miracle child. For you, things are different.
 * Joseph: You've said that all my life. I don't want to be different. I want to be like them.
 * Jacob: Joseph, God has a plan and a purpose for you. You're not like the rest of us. I've worked this earth all my life, just as my father and grandfather did before me, and as your brothers will after me. That won't be your future.
 * Rachel: Jacob, even God rested on the seventh day. He'll find his future soon enough. Let him be with his brothers.
 * Joseph: Please?
 * Jacob: [sighs] Go on.
 * Joseph: [grabs a map to Jacob] Thanks.
 * Jacob: Be safe!
 * ''[they both look at Joseph, running away]
 * ''[cut to the men, digging hay]
 * Joseph: Judah! Simeon!
 * Levi: Hmph! Look who's here. The miracle child. What are you doing here? Don't you have some scrolls to read or something?
 * Joseph: Here, let me do that.
 * Levi: [to Joseph] Joseph! Wait, wait! You have to be very careful. You might cut your hands on the soft fur.
 * Joseph: [to Levi] Get away!
 * ''[they both laugh]
 * Joseph: I... I just want to help.
 * Levi: [to Joseph] You've helped enough. Thanks to you, we'll work an extra hour today.
 * Joseph: You're not tired because you got up early. It's because you were out all night.
 * Levi: Why, you little sneak. What do you know?
 * Joseph: I know about everything, the women and the drinking.
 * Brother: There's a lot Father doesn't know. You wouldn't.
 * Levi: He would. The little brat. [grabs Joseph] If you say one word, I'll wring your skinny neck.
 * Slave Trader: [to Joseph and Levi] Stop it! If Father sent him, we should be happy for his help. Maybe he can do your work, Simeon. Huh! Somebody should.
 * ''[the brothers laugh]
 * Slave Trader: Besides, there is something Joseph can do. [he takes Joseph]
 * Brother: What's he doing?
 * Brother: I don't know.
 * Slave Trader: [to brothers] Shh! While we round up the strays, can you watch the herd for us?
 * Joseph: Of course.
 * Slave Trader: Good. We'll be back soon. Let's go.
 * Brother: Maybe we should split up. You go over there.
 * Joseph: [chuckling] Hey! What are you doing? Hey! [he laughs]
 * ''[the sheep bleats, then laughing, then petting the sheep, then the brothers laugh, then chattering]
 * Brother: Hey, come on! Look at him.
 * ''[he looks at the brothers in the pool]
 * Brother: Get him. You're too heavy.
 * ''[the brother falls in the water, then laughing, then sighing, then walking away, then putting the stick on the ground, then sitting on the rock, then bleating at Joseph]
 * Joseph: What? Are you making fun of me too?
 * ''[the sheep dances excitedly, then running]
 * Joseph: [to the sheep] Hey! [grabs a stick] Hey, come back! [opens the bushes, then looking at a wolf, growling] Huh?
 * ''[the wolf appears, growling, then gasping]
 * Joseph: [to the wolves] Get away! Get away!
 * ''[the sheep bleats, then the wolves start to attack the sheep, then running]
 * Joseph: [grabs a sheep] Gotcha!
 * ''[the wolves run through Joseph in a hay, then chomping closer to the sheep, then attacking Joseph, then hitting the tree, then Jacob attacks the wolf]
 * Jacob: [to the wolves, attacking] Back! Back! Get away!
 * ''[the wolf growls, then grunting, then the wolf continues growling, then sighing]
 * Jacob: [to Joseph] Joseph, are you hurt?
 * Joseph: [gives Jacob a hug] Father! [panting]
 * Jacob: [to Joseph] Your brothers, what are they? I asked you a question!
 * Joseph: They're... They're, uh... They... They went swimming.
 * Jacob: Swimming?
 * ''[the brothers run]
 * Judah: What happened?
 * Jacob: This is how you take charge? I expect you to watch after Joseph, but you abandoned my son. My son!
 * Judah: [to Jacob] Aren't we your sons too?
 * Joseph: The ram!
 * ''[the sheep bleats]
 * ''[then grabbing a leash, jingling]
 * Judah: It's Joseph's dream! Wolves kill sheep. It happens all the time.
 * Jacob: No! I understand. God sent you a vision of the future.
 * Brother: Joseph didn't really see the future, did he?
 * Judah: Let's get back to work.
 * ''[cut at night, with Joseph sleeping in the bed, grunting, then going in a painting, with a bird flying, squawking, bringing a hay, then putting it down, with the brothers bringing a hay, then putting it all down, with the hays lying down, then they all look at a hay growing up, revealing stars, with sun and moon, then opening a curtain]
 * Brother: Why do we wash before work? We don't want the sheep smelling you and running off. Hey, look who finally woke up. Oh, look at the sun brought up.
 * ''[Joseph puts water in his eyes]
 * Rachel: Good morning, Joseph.
 * Joseph: [takes a towel, then drying off the eyes] Mom, last night I had another dream.
 * Brother: Oh, another dream!
 * Brothers: Ooh!
 * Joseph: I wasn't talking to you.
 * Brother: Well, then, please, why don't you share it with all of us.
 * Joseph: Yes. Who'd the wolf get this time? You can laugh, but this time it was about all of you.
 * Brother: Oh, please, you must tell us our future, great Joseph. Should I be scared?
 * Joseph: Leave me alone!
 * Judah: Come on, Joseph. Tell us. We're dying to hear about it.
 * Joseph: Well, all of us were carrying sheaves of wheat. I was among you, but then all of a sudden, I was above you and your wheat bowed to me...
 * Brother: I wonder what that's supposed to mean. Nothing, that's what it means. Nothing.
 * Joseph: Hey, you asked to hear the dream.
 * Jacob: [to Joseph] What happened next?
 * Joseph: The sky was dark, and all around me there were stars. They were bowing to me too.
 * Brother: Ooh! Let's all bow down to Joseph.
 * Jacob: We can't ignore these dreams. After all, his last one did come true.
 * Brother: Are you saying that Joseph belongs all of us, even Judah?
 * Jacob: I'm not saying that, but there could be a message here.
 * Brother: Judah's led the herd for years, brought in the wheat, raised the tents. He comes first before any of us, especially Joseph.
 * Jacob: Judah, it's not up to me. God may be telling us something of our future.
 * Judah: Then I guess all my work doesn't matter.
 * Jacob: Watch your tongue.
 * Rachel: Jacob, Judah, please!
 * Brother: I've had enough of this. Let's go. [sighs] Look at what your dreams have done. [grabs a bag to Joseph]
 * Joseph: Don't get mad at me. I didn't ask for them.
 * Brother: You didn't ask for this either, brother. [hits Joseph, getting all wet]
 * Joseph: [putting the bag down] Half brother!
 * Jacob: Joseph! Boys! Apologize to each other!
 * Rachel: Let me talk to Joseph. [she walks by Joseph]
 * Jacob: [offscreen] He's just a boy. You're too harsh on him.
 * Brother: You're always defending him!
 * Jacob: [offscreen] His dreams come from God.
 * Rachel: Joseph, you need to be more understanding of your brothers. Life is a lot harder for them than it ever will be for you.
 * Joseph: Why do you defend them? They're not even your sons.
 * Rachel: They're no less my sons than you are. We're family, all of us. If we break apart, we have nothing left. [singing] You've seen the damage words can do, when full of thoughtless pride.
 * Brother: That's enough!
 * Rachel: [continues singing] Now heed the wiser voice in you that calls to be your guide. The flowers reaching for the sun are all uniquely blessed. But though each is special, not a one is better than the rest. Bloom, bloom, may you know. The wisdom only time breeds. There's room, bloom and you'll grow to follow where your heart leads. Bloom and may you bring your colors to the vast bouquet. There's room, bloom, learn one thing. Your gifts are meant to give away.
 * Joseph: Thanks, Mom. [he runs off, then waving to Rachel] Judah! Simeon! Levi! Reuben! Where are you?
 * Judah: [offscreen] Joseph isn't fit to lead sheep.
 * Levi: [offscreen] I agree.
 * Reuben: [offsreen] But he's our brother.
 * Simeon: [offscreen] Half brother. Said so himself. Judah is the one who should take over for Father.
 * Judah: Yes, but...
 * Levi: Do you want a spoiled brat giving you orders?
 * Judah: No.
 * Simeon: Can we all agree that something has to be done about Joseph?
 * Judah: Yes. I agree.
 * ''[the brother grabs Joseph]
 * Brother: Hey, everybody! The little spy is back!
 * Joseph: I wasn't spying.
 * Brother: Did Father tell you to check up on us?
 * Joseph: No! Maybe this was a mistake. I just want to...
 * Judah: Report on us to Father?
 * Simeon: You're his favorite.
 * Joseph: N-No.
 * Judah: [grabs Joseph] You look at scrolls all day while we're covered in sweat. Why is that, Joseph? Is it because we don't have pretty coats like you?
 * Simeon: [takes his coat off] I have mine.
 * Joseph: That's my coat!
 * Simeon: Step aside, brothers. I'm the new head of the family. Bow before me, you sheaves of wheat!
 * Levi: Oh, yes, Master Joseph, ruler of the world.
 * Joseph: Give it back, now!
 * Simeon: If you want your coat, why don't you go get it? [throws a coat to Reuben]
 * Judah: Levi's got it.
 * Simeon: No, I don't. Judah does.
 * Brother: Come on! I've got it!
 * ''[the brother tears Joseph's coat, then yelling, then laying down on the ground, then they all laugh]
 * Joseph: I've had enough of this stupid game!
 * Judah: Joseph! Who says this is a game?
 * ''[the brothers take Joseph to the pit]
 * Joseph: What are you doing? Leave me alone! No! Stop it! [he falls down in a pit, then getting up, coughing]
 * Levi: [offscreen] What do we do now?
 * Brother: [offscreen] Are we just going to leave him down there? What are we going to tell Father? We'll think of something.
 * Joseph: Somebody! Please!
 * Brother: Just get out of here. Maybe he can dream his way out.
 * ''[the coat lands on Joseph]
 * Joseph: Don't leave me here alone! [he grunts, then sighs, then cut at night, with Joseph shuddering, with a lobster crawling on Joseph, then getting off of Joseph, then grabbing a rock, then pounding on the ground, killing a lobster, then the rope lands on the pit] I knew you'd come back. [he climbs out of the pit] You think this is funny? Well, Father won't be laughing when he hear... Who are you?
 * Slave Trader: Get him.
 * ''[the brothers grab Joseph]
 * Joseph: Hey! Hey! What are you doing? Ow! Let me go! You don't understand. I'm from the house of Jacob.
 * Horse Trader: A little scrawny, isn't he?
 * Lead Trader: It's hard to tell with that pretty coat on.
 * ''[Joseph falls to the ground]
 * Lead Trader: Hmm.
 * Joseph: No, no, no, don't take my...
 * Slave Trader: Get up!
 * Lead Trader: Looks like he's never worked a day in his life.
 * Horse Trader: That'll change.
 * Joseph: My brothers will come from me. Judah! Simeon! Levi! Please help me!
 * Judah: Joseph! We're right here.
 * Joseph: [sighs] Judah. [he hugs Judah] I told you they'd come for me.
 * Slave Trader: [dumps the pieces of silver on the hand] As agreed, 20 pieces of silver. [throws a bag to Judah]
 * Joseph: J-Judah.. Why... No! Help me! Levi, please. Issachar. Simeon. Stop them. Judah. Judah, help me, please.
 * ''[they take Joseph]
 * Joseph: Please!
 * ''[the slavers grunt, then taking a coat to Judah]
 * Joseph: Judah, please!
 * Issachar: [to Judah] Judah, we can't turn back now. We've gone too far.
 * ''[the rope ties Joseph's hands]
 * Horse Trader: Hut, hut!
 * ''[the camel takes Joseph]
 * Joseph: I'm your brother! I'm your brother!
 * Judah: Half brother.
 * Slaver: Yah!
 * ''[the camel continues taking Joseph, to a desert, with a wolf howling, then conserving at the campfire, with the wind howling, then grabbing a sunflower, then cut to Rachel and Jacob]
 * Rachel: Where could he have gone?
 * Jacob: Don't worry. I'm sure he's all right. [hugs Rachel] The boys will find him.
 * Judah: Father. This is all we found.
 * ''[they both look at the coat with blood]
 * Rachel: [gasping] Joseph!
 * Jacob: No! Joseph!
 * Rachel: Joseph!
 * ''[Rachel sobs]
 * Jacob: Oh, Rachel.
 * ''[Rachel continues sobbing, then cut back to Joseph]
 * Slave Trader: [kicks him] Hey, wake up.
 * ''[the sunflower flies away, casuing the tears in his eyes, then crackling of the campfire, forming a desert, taking Joseph]
 * Men: [singing] Behold the glory, behold the wonder, what we have made shall not be torn asunder! Such vast achievement, stone and papyrus! Beneath the gaze of Isis and Osiris! Land of majesty, where the heavens smile! Jewel of history shining by the Nile!
 * Man: Hey! Here. Exquisite, aren't they? Yes.
 * Slave Trader: Where's the slave market?
 * Lead Trader: Down by the docks.
 * ''[the camel brays, then taking Joseph, with a man shouting]
 * Men: [continues singing] Serve and be silent you who are chattel, we think of you as little more than cattle! This is your lot now and we advise you, to bow before whatever master buys you! Feel the power here! Power has its price!
 * Slave Trader: Let's go.
 * Men: [continues singing] Some can live like gods! Some must sacrifice!
 * Slave Trader: What do you have? A Canaanite.
 * Men: [continues singing] Through the centuries, many backs have bent! Many dreams are built, many lives are spent!
 * Joseph: Move, slave! Get in line.
 * Trader: Slaves for sale! Buy this one!
 * Man: Now, let's have a look at him. Let me see his teeth. Hmm. Mm-hmm. He's too skinny. This is more like it.
 * ''[he gasps]
 * Man: The captain of the guard needs a slave for his household.
 * Slave Trader: I have one you might like.
 * Man: Thirty pieces. Hmm. He looks healthy enough. Lord Potiphar!
 * Potiphar: He'll do.
 * Man: Ah. Looks like we have some work to do.
 * Men: [continues singing] Look and be humbled, learn what your place is Egyptian slave! No matter what your race is, this is your future your life suspended, and everything you knew before has ended! You are Egypt's now!
 * ''[Joseph coughs, then putting around Joseph]
 * Men: [continues singing] We have all control!
 * Joseph: Hey!
 * Men: [continues singing] From your every step to your very soul!
 * Man: Hold still. You're done. He's ready for work.
 * ''[he walks off, looking at a reflection of the water, putting a bucket in the water, then throwing a towel, wiping it off]
 * Man: It's not for your face. It's for the floor.
 * ''[he grunts, wiping the floor]
 * Joseph: Ow! [he looks at the hands]
 * ''[he laughs]
 * Simeon: Hey, Joseph, you missed a spot.
 * Levi: It's different doing real work, isn't it?
 * ''[Joseph puts the towel on the ground]
 * Simeon: No more baby soft hands. Who bows now, little brother?
 * ''[the brothers laugh, then wiping it off]
 * Potiphar: [to Joseph] You there. Have you cleaned this entire courtyard by yourself?
 * Joseph: Yes.
 * Zuleika: He's a hard worker.
 * Potiphar: Hmm.
 * Zuleika: Maybe we could put him to better use in the banquet hall.
 * Potiphar: My wofe thinks you should work for her. What do you say?
 * Joseph: I cannot say. A slave is not his own master.
 * Potiphar: Well said. Find him some new clothes. Then get someone else to finish here.
 * Attendant: Yes, my lord.
 * ''[Zuleika walks to Joseph, then getting up, with a cat messing around on the table]
 * Asenath: Here, kitty, kitty, kitty! Come on.
 * ''[the cat yowls at the man]
 * Asenath: Who brought the cat? Here, kitty, kitty, kitty. Oh, stop that.
 * ''[he chuckles]
 * Zuleika: Come down!
 * Woman: Aunt Zuleika, I'm sorry. I'll get down from there.
 * ''[the cat meows]
 * Woman: Please come down. Come here, kitty.
 * ''[Joseph pours into the bowl, then putting it down]
 * Joseph: Come here. Look at this.
 * ''[the cat drinks the water]
 * Asenath: [to the man, petting the cat] Hmm. She seems to like you. [grabs the cat] Thank you. I haven't seen you here before.
 * Joseph: Oh, I'm new.
 * Zuleika: [to Asenath] Asenath.
 * Asenath: Coming Aunt Zuleika. Good-bye.
 * ''[Joseph sighs, then hearing a horse whinnying, while painting]
 * Zuleika: Joseph, come here. I'm waiting.
 * Joseph: I'm coming! [he goes down the stairs to Asenath] Oh! Sorry, Asenath.
 * Asenath: Oh!
 * Joseph: What?
 * Asenath: I don't think you want my aunt seeing you like this. [wipes off his face] That's better.
 * Joseph: Thanks.
 * ''[he hears a horse whinnying]
 * Zuleika: [the flies buzz at Zuleika] Slave.
 * Joseph: Oh, yes, of course. [he walks to Zuleika]
 * ''[he hears a galloping hoofbeats]
 * Potiphar: Hyah! Hyah!
 * Zuleika: What a magnificent animal.
 * Potiphar: Faster. Faster. Ah! [laughing]
 * Zuleika: Slave. I'm in the sun.
 * Potiphar: Hyah! Ho! [laughing, stopping the horse] Whoa!
 * Horse Trader: Well?
 * Potiphar: [getting off of the horse] You were right. He's all that you promised. I haven't seen a finer horse in all of Egypt.
 * Horse Trader: I'm glad Your Excellency is pleased. There is still one small matter.
 * Potiphar: Oh, yes. As we agreed. [takes a bag of coins, then putting on a scale]
 * Horse Trader: Oh, forgive me, but something is not quite right.
 * Potiphar: I thought I brought the right amount.
 * Horse Trader: You're a busy man. Anyone can make a mistake.
 * ''[Potiphar puts the coins on a scale]
 * Horse Trader: He's yours. Pharaoh himself would be jealous.
 * Potiphar: Yes, he's a fine horse.
 * Joseph: [looking at a scale, then taking a bag of coins] Master, I think you should see this.
 * Horse Trader: Uh... Get away from that. Don't touch it!
 * Joseph: [puts a piece on a scale] Well, look at that.
 * Horse Trader: Well, I... It's broken. Your Excellency, I had no idea.
 * Potiphar: Of course not. You're a busy man. Anyone can make a mistake. And yours is going to cost you your freedom.
 * Horse Trader: Please, keep the stallion as a gift from me.
 * Potiphar: No. Take him away.
 * ''[the horse nickers]
 * Horse Trader: I have a dozen more horses! Take them all! Please, anything!
 * ''[Potiphar grabs the bag of coins]
 * Zuleika: Potiphar, you should keep it. You said it was the finest in all Egypt.
 * Potiphar: Own a horse taken from a thief? What would that say about my honor?
 * Zuleika: [scoffs] You ane your honor.
 * Potiphar: You've done well. What's your name?
 * Joseph: Joseph.
 * Potiphar: Joseph. You're an educated slave. Where did you learn?
 * Joseph: My father taught me.
 * Potiphar: Ah. He taught you well. Tell me what else your father has taught you. I can read and write Egyptian.
 * Man: [singing] A boy looks up and sees a golden gift of chance.
 * Potiphar: What a mess. Good luck.
 * Man: [continues singing] To prove his worth, and make the best of what might seem a dire circumstance. Onward and onward the slow and steady climb.
 * Potiphar: Master. Let's have a look.
 * Man: [continues singing] Task upon task that can lift him to the summit over time.
 * Potiphar: Well done, Joseph.
 * Man: [continues singing] You've got to take whatever road's at your feet. You've got to make whatever progress you can. Although the map you hold is far from complete. You've got to take whatever road's at your feet.
 * ''[the men laugh, then taking the bowl to Potiphar]
 * Potiphar: [smacking a bowl] To a good year, and to your friend.
 * ''[they both laugh, then painting a sunflower, then sighing, looking at a sun, and the men, laughing]
 * Judah: My neck is killing me. It's too early for this.
 * ''[the men continue cutting, then Jacob walking, filling up the bucket, then looking at the sunflowers with butterflies, then Rachel, with a harp, with Jacob walking, sitting next to Rachel]
 * Jacob: [hugs Rachel] Rachel.
 * Zuleika: Joseph.
 * Joseph: Huh?
 * Zuleika: Shh!
 * Joseph: W-Why are you here? Is something wrong?
 * Zuleika: No. This land, it's not Egypt. Is this your home?
 * Joseph: Canaan.
 * Zuleika: Please, tell me more about Canaan.
 * Joseph: [sighs] This is the place where I was born. These are the sunflowers my mother planted. This is my, uh... My...
 * Zuleika: Family? You miss them, don't you?
 * Joseph: My brothers. They betrayed me!
 * Zuleika: Joseph, we are your family now.
 * Joseph: Huh?
 * Zuleika: We care for you here. We... I feel you are special.
 * Joseph: What? No. W-Why have you come here tonight?
 * Zuleika: To be with you.
 * Joseph: No. This is not right.
 * Zuleika: Look at me.
 * Joseph: I will not betray my master.
 * Zuleika: I'm talking to you.
 * Joseph: No! Stop! No!
 * Zuleika: Wait! I order you to stay! [rips his clothes]
 * Joseph: No! [runs away]
 * Zuleika: Everything you are, you owe to me!
 * ''[Joseph continues running, then he hears Zuleika screaming, then the men start to attack Joseph, then falling on the ground]
 * Potiphar: You stood apart from the other slaves. I let you work home. I kept you from hard labor, and you did well for me. Or so I thought.
 * Joseph: Master...
 * Potiphar: No other slave was ever given this opporunity! I gave you my trust. What do you say yourself?
 * Joseph: I did nothing wrong.
 * Potiphar: And still you insult me with your denials! What am I to make of this?
 * ''[Zuleika sobs]
 * Joseph: It's not what it seems. I could never betray you.
 * Potiphar: Such insolence! Am I to believe a slave over my own wife?
 * Joseph: I swear. I did nothing to betray you.
 * Potiphar: Silence! For what have you done, you must be put to death. See to it.
 * Joseph: No, no. Master, Master, I beg of you. Tell him! Help me! Tell him that...
 * ''[the man grabs Joseph]
 * Joseph: Help me! Please!
 * Zuleika: Stop.
 * Joseph: He doesn't deserve to die.
 * Potiphar: Why? I see.
 * ''[Joseph pants]
 * Potiphar: Take him to prison.
 * ''[he grunts]
