Harold DeMilo : Are you blackmailing me, Mr Mahoney?
Curtis Mahoney : Goodness, no! I'm just an average person with an above average curiosity... and of course I make friends easily.
-
Dr. Jake Terrell : Where are they?
Curtis Mahoney : The dolphins? I would guess they're on that yacht.
Dr. Jake Terrell : What've they been doing?
Curtis Mahoney : That's the part we don't know. What we do know is that they've been working on this thing since you started teaching your friend Alpha to talk.
Margaret 'Maggie' Terrell : How do we stop them?
Curtis Mahoney : From doing what? That's the point. At the moment, assuming we could find them, we could get them on the unique charge of kidnapping a bottlenose dolphin. I'm not even sure it's a crime.

Dr. Jake Terrell : They'll kill 'em.
Curtis Mahoney : Hmm?
Dr. Jake Terrell : They'll kill 'em, won't they?
Curtis Mahoney : Yes, of course they will.
Margaret 'Maggie' Terrell : Why?
Curtis Mahoney : They killed a man. Do you think they're going to get sentimental about a dolphin?
Margaret 'Maggie' Terrell : But, Jake, why? What - What would be the point of killing *them*?
Dr. Jake Terrell : Alpha can talk. We taught 'im, remember? He's a witness.

Dr. Jake Terrell : Alpha, listen to Pa.

Dr. Jake Terrell : Yes, Pa knows. Listen, Alpha. Some men will come here, men who are not good. Pha and B must go.
Alpha : Pha stays with Pa.
Dr. Jake Terrell : No. Pha and B go now.
Alpha : Pa not love Pha.
Margaret 'Maggie' Terrell : Yes. Pa loves Pha, and B. Ma loves Pha and B.
Alpha : Pha loves Ma.
Curtis Mahoney : Everybody loves everybody! Now for Christ's sake, let's get the hell out of here!

Curtis Mahoney : I have this terrible habit of speaking thoughtlessly. I'm dangerously unrefined.
Harold DeMilo : Dangerously?
