Everett K. Ross : [after he wakes up] Is this Wakanda?
Shuri : [sarcastically] No, it's Kansas.
-
Shuri : Don't scare me like that, coloniser!
-
Shuri : It's like riding a hover-bike.
Everett K. Ross : You have hover-bikes?
-
Shuri : [as a fatally wounded Everett Ross is wheeled into her lab] Great! Another broken white boy for us to fix.
-
Shuri : [about T'Challa's sandals] What are those?
-
Shuri : This corset is really uncomfortable, so can we all just wrap it up and go home?
-
[in Oakland]
Shuri : When you said you'd bring me to California when I was a kid, I thought you meant Coachella, or Disneyland. Where are we?
T'Challa : This is the building where our uncle lived, where our father killed him.
Shuri : [sees a condemnation notice] They're tearing it down. Good.
T'Challa : They are not tearing it down, not anymore. I bought the building. And that one... and that one.

[post-credits scene: in a small village at Wakanda, Bucky comes out of a hut. He looks around. A group of children call him "White Wolf". He approaches Shuri]
Shuri : Good morning, Sergeant Barnes.
Bucky Barnes : Bucky.
Shuri : How are you feeling?
Bucky Barnes : Good.
[pause]
Bucky Barnes : Thank you.
Shuri : Come.
[Shuri starts walking away]
Shuri : Much more for you to learn.
[Bucky pauses for a moment, looking at the landscape, then follows Shuri]
-
Shuri : Just because something works doesn't mean that it cannot be improved.
-
Shuri : The entire suit sits within the teeth of the necklace. Strike it.
T'Challa : Anywhere?
Shuri : Mmm-hmm.
[T'Challa knocks the suit across the room]
Shuri : Not that hard, genius!
T'Challa : You told me to strike it. You didn't say how hard.
Shuri : I invite you to my lab,and you just kick things around?
T'Challa : Well, maybe you should make it a little stronger.
[T'Challa notices a glow coming from the middle of the suit]
T'Challa : Hey. Wait a minute.
Shuri : The nanites absorb the kinetic energy... and hold it in place for redistribution.
T'Challa : Very nice.
Shuri : Strike it again in the same spot.
T'Challa : You're recording?
Shuri : For research purposes.
T'Challa : [T'Challa kicks the suit and is immediately knocked over] Delete that footage.
-
T'Challa : So surprised my little sister came to see me off before our big day.
Shuri : You wish! I'm here for the EMP beads. I've developed an update.
T'Challa : Update? No. It worked perfectly.
Shuri : How many times do I have to teach you? Just because something works doesn't mean that it cannot be improved.
T'Challa : You are teaching me? What do you know?
Shuri : More than you.
T'Challa : I can't wait to see what kind of update you make to your ceremonial outfit.
[Shuri gives T'Challa the finger]

[W'Kabi brings Killmonger in front of T'Challa and the Elders]
T'Challa : [in Xhosa] Speak.
W'Kabi : [to Killmonger] Speak.
Erik Killmonger : I'm standing in your house, serving justice to a man who stole your vibranium and murdered your people. Justice your king couldn't deliver.
[T'Challa stands up and approaches Killmonger]
T'Challa : I don't care that you brought Klaue. Only reason I don't kill you where you stand is because I know who you are. Now what do you want?
Erik Killmonger : I want the throne.
[Mining Tribe Elder laughs]
Mining Tribe Elder : [in Xhosa] My goodness.
[the other Elders laugh]
Erik Killmonger : Y'all sittin' up here comfortable. Must feel good. It's about two billion people all over the world that looks like us. But their lives are a lot harder. Wakanda has the tools to liberate 'em all.
T'Challa : And what tools are those?
Erik Killmonger : Vibranium. Your weapons.
T'Challa : Our weapons will not be used to wage war on the world. It is not our way to be judge, jury, and executioner for people who are not our own.
Erik Killmonger : Not your own? But didn't life start right here on this continent? So ain't all people your people?
T'Challa : I am not king of all people. I am King of Wakanda. And it is my responsibility to make sure our people are safe and that vibranium does not fall into the hands of a person like you.
Erik Killmonger : Mmm...
Ramonda : Son, we have entertained this charlatan for too long. Reject his request.
Erik Killmonger : Oh, I ain't requesting nothing. Ask who I am.
Shuri : You're Erik Stevens. An American black operative. A mercenary nicknamed Killmonger. That's who you are.
Erik Killmonger : That's not my name, Princess. Ask me, King.
T'Challa : No.
Erik Killmonger : Ask me.
[T'Challa turns around and walks back to his throne]
T'Challa : Take him away.
-
T'Challa : He will send our weapons all over the world. You must get them out of Wakanda safely.
Ramonda : What?
Shuri : What about you?
T'Challa : The challenge will have to continue.
Ramonda : T'Challa, we will not leave Wakanda.
T'Challa : It is my duty to keep you safe.
Shuri : If he gets control of our technology, nowhere will be safe.
-
Shuri : The Black Panther lives. And when he fights for the fate of Wakanda, I will be right beside him.
Nakia : As will I.
Everett K. Ross : I'm in, too.
[they all look at him]
Everett K. Ross : What? You're gonna need all the help you can get.
-
Everett K. Ross : These train things, that... that's magnetic levitation, right?
Shuri : Obviously.
Everett K. Ross : Obviously, but I-I've never seen it this... efficient. The light panels, what are they?
Shuri : Sonic stabilizers.
Everett K. Ross : Sonic what?
Shuri : In its raw form, vibraniun is too dangerous to be transported at that speed, so I... I developed a way to temporarily deactivate it.
Everett K. Ross : There's vibranium on those trains?
Shuri : There's vibranium all around us. That's how I healed you.
-
Everett K. Ross : [pursuing Killmonger's cache of weapons] Okay, Shuri, I got 'em. What do I do?
Shuri : Shoot them down, genius!
