• Billy Brennan : So Mr. Kirby, when you climbed K2, did you base camp at twenty-five or thirty thousand feet?

  Paul Kirby : Thirty thousand feet, we were pretty close to the top.

  Billy Brennan : You were about a thousand feet above, actually.

• Paul : What are you doing? Those things are after us because of those!

  Dr. Grant : Those things know we have the eggs. If I drop them in the river, they'll still be after us.

  Paul : What if they catch us with them?

  Dr. Grant : What if they catch us without them?

• Dr. Grant : Why me?

  Paul Kirby : He said we needed someone who'd been on the island before.

  Udesky : Yes, but I did not tell you to kidnap somebody!

  Dr. Grant : I have never been on this island.

  Paul Kirby : Sure you have, you wrote that book.

  Billy Brennan : That was Isla Nublar. This is Isla Sorna - Site B.

• Udesky : We'll search for your son... in the direction that they're going.

  Paul : Excellent, excellent...

• Paul Kirby : [a loud roar rocks the jungle]  What was that?

  Billy Brennan : It's a Tyrannosaurus.

  Dr. Grant : I don't think so. It sounds bigger.

• Paul : [in abandoned complex] 

  [goes up to snack machine and takes coins out] 

  Paul : Ahem... I need change here, it only takes quarters, I think I've got... I've got about ten...

  [Billy breaks the glass on the snack machines with a kick and then reaches in and takes some things out] 

  Paul : [Paul attempts to do the same, glass doesn't break; Paul limps away] 

• [repeated line] 

  Paul : Dr. Grant said that is a very bad idea.

• Paul : [Paul and Amanda are having an argument]  Fine, go ahead and scream and when that "Tricyclatops" attacks you, don't come crying to me.

• Paul : No matter how this turns out, it wasn't your fault. Eric's always been a strong-willed kid. Always. Then you throw someone like Ben Hildebrand into the mix and... well...

  Amanda : Well, what?

  Paul : All I'm saying... it's not your fault.

  Amanda : No, if he'd been with you, he'd be completely safe. You drive five miles under the speed limit, Paul. And I've totaled three cars in three years.

  Paul : Well, not three. The Buick wasn't really totaled. I just said it was 'cause I wanted to get the SUV.

  Amanda : I am so sorry that you have to be here.

  Paul : I'm not.

• Udesky : [interested]  So you run a hardware store?

  Paul : Paint and tile, yeah.

  Udesky : [unsurprised]  Huh. Never can tell about people, can you?

  Paul : Ain't that the truth.

• Paul : You're not really a mercenary, are you?

  Udesky : I never said I was.

  Paul : Well, that's true. What are you?

  Udesky : Well, I'm like a booking agent. One of the guys... guys got sick and couldn't come.
