Martin Krebs: [Meeting Duncan at the Van Dijks bar in Paramaribo, Suriname] Martin Krebs. We spoke on the phone? Duncan Kincaid: Yeah, Krebs, look, I'm sorry. I thought it over and I can't do it.

And people in and out of places they shouldn't be. Duncan Kincaid: Trouble is I really can't do it this time, Z. I'm sorry. And I'm afraid that's final.

Reuben Delgado: Do you have any idea the weight of the... I bu

Zora Bennett: Well, then, maybe you should stop.

Dialogue

Dr. Henry Loomis: We can't stay here. They'll come back. Martin Krebs: They're more like mutations. Zora Bennett: What do you mean, mutations? Martin Krebs: Abnormalities, deviations. Zora Bennett: I know what the word means. What does it mean here where we are? Duncan Kincaid: What are you talking about? Zora Bennett: This island that we're on, Mr. Work here didn't tell us everything that we need to know. Martin Krebs: Look, dinosaurs are dinosaurs. What difference does it make? Zora Bennett: Okay, fine. Don't tell us. We can just leave it here. Martin Krebs: It's fine. Zora Bennett: Fine. Martin Krebs: So this island was a laboratory of sorts.

Dr. Henry Loomis: It's the best chance of being fossilized that way. Duncan Kincaid: You're a weirdo. Dr. Henry Loomis: Thank y
