"I thought that you would be more excited." "I am." "I've never really seen you at a loss for words before." "Uh, yes, well," " Umm..." " Did you forget why we were here?" "I mean, we found my father, we found the stone." "I did not come for your father, Susan." "I came for you." "What?" "( sighs )" "I know I'm not the best person at expressing myself and perhaps that is why I've chosen to surround myself with artifacts and relics rather than things of flesh and blood." "But I do understand one thing and that is that I have loved you the moment I laid eyes upon you." "And my one regret is that I have waited until this moment to tell you." "Now that we're facing death." "Perhaps." "That must have taken a lot of courage to say." "Oh yes." "Well... maybe that same courage will help find us a way out of here." "Perhaps."

" We can't help them." " Like you couldn't help in the sand?" " Or your team in the Amazon?" " Where are you going?" " To help our friends." " No, Susan." "Your father sacrificed himself so I could get you out of here." "I am trying to get you out of here." "Everything I do," " every choice that I've made" " We have to help them." "Susan, please."

"But we saw him die." "He sacrificed himself and was allowed to live." " Why?" " Because that's something" " Quetzalcoatl understands." " Dad." " No, we're leaving." " What's the matter with you?" " It's Dr. Jordan!" " I don't care who it is." " I'm getting out of here." " Stop it!" "Don't fight." "It isn't godlike." "( Hildy screams )" " Dunbar:" "What's he doing?"
