Christopher Columbus - Season 1 Episode 14 Audience With the King and Queen
Columbus asks Duke Medina Sidonia to finance his project, at which point the Duke Medina Sidonia in turn asks the more influential Duke Medina Geli for help. Duke Medina, fully convinced that Columbus's ambition is indeed worthy of funding, then writes a letter to Queen Isabella. The Queen accepts an appointment with the Genoese sailor, thus Columbus is fortunate to have the opportunity to explain the scope of his project to Her Majesty. Columbus sets out toward Cordova, hoping his dream will come to fruition.
