Dr. Minway Zhang : [to Jonas] We have a shark cage and spearguns on board. If we can shoot the meg in a soft spot like its mouth or gills, we can inject it with something lethal.
Mac : Whoa, whoa, whoa. It's gonna take at least 20 minutes to rig the cage. And that thing will be gone in two.
Jack Morris : Why don't you just put a tracker on it? Don't you guys ever watch Shark Week? You have one of those, like, GPS tracker tag thingamajigs. Keep an eye on the shark till the cage is ready.
The Wall : We should be able to put a tracking dart in that dorsal fin.
Jack Morris : You're welcome.

Jonas Taylor : Remind me again why this a good idea.
Jaxx : What? It's a shark cage.
Jonas Taylor : Plastic shark cage.
Jaxx : I'm gonna ignore that you just said that. This beautiful thing is polycarbonate, specifically designed not to crack, not to break, but to deform. And in this case, at this thickness, it would take 20,000 pounds per square inch. And you're talking about breaking, that's eight to nine hundred thousand.
Jonas Taylor : I don't like it.
The Wall : Doesn't like it.
DJ : I wouldn't get in there.

Suyin : This is what attacked us. A megalodon.
DJ : How big is that thing?
Suyin : Between 70 and 90 feet, 21 to 27 meters. The megalodon was the largest shark that ever existed. It feared nothing. it had no predators. it's jaws were stronger than any other animal, ever. The meg could bite a whale in half, crushing through the bones.
Dr. Minway Zhang : We are in uncharted territory. Until today, megalodons were thought to have been extinct for over 2 million years.
DJ : Wrong.
Jaxx : A living fossil.
The Wall : That living fossil ate my friend.
