[Jim, Nyobi and Barbara are securely bound hand and foot in Brandt's cave]
Prof. Brandt : It's no use, Jungle Jim. It will take you hours to get loose that way and I don't think you're gonna have that much time.
Nyobi : If you're going to kill us, do it now and get it over with.
Prof. Brandt : Really, Nyobi, aren't you being a little melodramatic?
Barbara Bentley : Aren't you with your strutting and gloating?
Prof. Brandt : All right, Jim, it's your turn. What have you got to say?
Jungle Jim : There's just one thing... Brandt, I'm going to kill you.

Prof. Brandt : This looks like quite an expedition. You mind if I go along?
Jungle Jim : No, I think it would be a good idea. There's only one thing, Brandt...
Prof. Brandt : Well, what's that?
Jungle Jim : If we do catch a gorilla man, try not to shoot him.

Prof. Brandt : I didn't know that.
Jungle Jim : You should. You're a zoologist, aren't you?

Jungle Jim : And try not to get lost again!
Nyobi : I won't, Mister Jim, and thanks.
