The episode opens with a dramatic carriage ride through the treacherous Silk Road, as Marco and his father Niccolo test their luck against the harsh elements and the dangerous bandits who prey on travelers.

Despite the multitude of challenges they face on their journey, Marco is fascinated by the exotic customs and strange traditions of the Mongol people. As they journey deeper into the heart of the Empire, he soon finds himself in the service of the great Kublai Khan, the powerful ruler of the Mongol Empire.

We soon learn that Marco's father and uncle have been in the service of the Khan for many years, and that Marco was sent on this journey to join them in their work. However, things quickly go awry when the treacherous minister Jia Sidao attempts to undermine the Khan's authority by sabotaging the construction of a bridge in the city of Cambulac.

With the help of his new friend and ally, the skilled warrior Hundred Eyes, Marco is able to thwart Jia Sidao's plan and earn the respect of the Khan.
