- Nadia: It's amazing how cruel people can be.
- Arthur Curry: Yeah. It bothers me more and more. That marlin should be in the ocean, not hanging on some moron's fireplace.
- Nadia: Maybe someday the fish will get their revenge.
- Arthur Curry: I don't know. I think rednecks make pretty ugly trophies.
- McCaffery: Once a siren has you in her gaze, there's nothing a man can do.
- Arthur Curry: A siren? Of course. You act like you see them all the time.
- McCaffery: I've seen my fair share. Unfortunately, my aim is a little rusty. The only way to kill those scaly bitches is to nail them between the eyes.
- Arthur Curry: Who are you?
- McCaffery: An exile like you and your mother.
- Arthur Curry: Exile from where?
- McCaffery: It's called different names by different cultures. You probably know by its most famous: Atlantis.
- Arthur Curry: Atlantis. Yeah. Next time you're in Atlantis, can you say hi to Captain Nemo and the Little Mermaid for me?
- McCaffery: You can't avoid your responsibility, Orin. It's in your bones and you know it.
- Arthur Curry: This is insane. I'm a dive shop owner. I'm not the protector ot the Seven Seas!
- McCaffery: Destiny is like a riptide. You never know it's pulling you until its too late.
- Arthur Curry: Henry IV Parts I and II. Hmm. Didn't really know Shakespeare was into sequels.
- McCaffery: I expect for you to have read them by next week.
- Arthur Curry: Uh, I gave up book reports in sixth grade.
- McCaffery: This is part of your training.
- Arthur Curry: Right. See, when you said training. I thought you meant, you know, wielding tridents and doing cool stuff in the water.
- McCaffery: All in due time. Don't worry. There's plenty sex and violence in there to keep you interested.
- Arthur Curry: Can't you just hit the highlights and tell me how it ends?
- McCaffery: The lesson isn't in the ending, Orin. It's in the journey.
- Arthur 'AC' Curry: You want to know the real reason why I freed those dolphins? It's because I felt like they were calling to me.
- Eva: What are you saying, you can talk to fish now?
- McCaffery: There are creatures in the deep you couldn't imagine in your worst nightmares.
- Arthur 'AC' Curry: Oh, thats reassuring. Thanks a lot.
- Arthur Curry: [to McCaffery] Does Atlantis has a retractable dome? Or does everyone just swim around in there like a bunch of fish?
