  • Jack T. Colton : I thought you said you wanted to sail around the world with me?

    Joan Wilder : Well, I do, but, but not all of it this week. I mean, Jack, this is just becoming a blur. Exotic ports. And great parties. And spectacular sunsets. It's not enough.

  • Jack T. Colton : What the hell are you talkin' about? I don't even know who the hell you are!

    Tarak : You must come with me to help find the Jewel.

    Ralph : [face lights up]  Jewel? What jewel?

    Tarak : The Jewel of the Nile. Our most pricess Jewel. Omar stole my people's Jewel. Omar is a very bad man.

    Ralph : Yeah, that scum, I spit on him! Jack... buddy? Let's help this nice man get his jewel back.

    Tarak : Yes... yes?

    Jack T. Colton : Here, I don't know where you're from or what you're on, but I'm sailing my boat tonight.

    Tarak : No! You must come to help find the Jewel now! Before Omar kill many people! As long as Omar have the Jewel... nothing can stop him.

    Jack T. Colton : Look, I'm going on the boat. You guys can do what you want.

    [behind Jack, his sailboat blows up; Jack slowly turns around looking stunned while both Tarak and Ralph are stunned as well] 

    Ralph : The boat blew up.

    Jack T. Colton : My boat blew up?

    Ralph : The boat blew up!

    Jack T. Colton : Everything's gone.

    Ralph : Who are you? The prince of darkness? Don't you got any friends?

  • Tarak : Your woman is in danger too. I will take you to him.

    Ralph : I'm comin' too!

    Jack T. Colton : The hell you are!

    Ralph : Look, you owe me Colton. So, where ever you're going, I'm going. Where we going?

  • [Omar has put Jack and Joan in a deathtrap copied from one of Joan's own books] 

    Jack Colton : So how'd they get out?

    Joan Wilder : What?

    Jack Colton : In "The Savage Secret".

    Joan Wilder : Oh. Um... Jesse had a knife hidden in his boot. You wouldn't happen to have a knife, would you?

    Jack Colton : I'm not even wearing underwear.

  • [while surrounded by native Africans] 

    Jack Colton : Just keep smiling. Maybe they'll think we're with National Geographic.

  • Jack Colton : It's looking more like 90-10, eh Kumquat?

  • [Jack, Joan and the Jewel are under fire from Omar's soldiers] 

    Jack Colton : Okay, now let's go.

    Joan Wilder : [refering to the Jewel]  Wait a minute, Jack. He's coming with us.

    Jack Colton : Don't start with me, Joan! I've come halfway across Africa to rescue you!

    Joan Wilder : Resuce me? I was doing fine without you!

    Jewel : [to Jack]  Please, I am guide. I can help you.

    Jack Colton : I don't need a guide! I need a miracle!

  • Jack Colton : Why does everything got to be your way?

    Joan Wilder : My way? It wasn't my idea to take off and sail around the world with you on your boat for the last six months!

    Jewel : I like this. You talk to each other like this often?

    Jack Colton : [to the Jewel]  Well, let me tell you what I had to put up. Three months ago, we're moored off the Canary Islands, midnight, sound asleep. A boat of three crazed Joan Wilder fans decide that they want the anchor of the Angeline for a souvenir! We were drifting for days!

    Joan Wilder : Well, do you remember the incident at Gibraltar, Jack?

    Jack Colton : Oh, come on. Not that again.

    Joan Wilder : He has to meet me at the governor's mansion for a formal dinner, and you show up with the entire Italian National League Basketball team!

    Jack Colton : Hey, they were hungry.

  • Joan Wilder : Jack!

    Jack T. Colton : Hold tight, I'm coming!

  • Jack T. Colton : I'm sorry you had such a tough time. Ah, how 'bout a hundred bucks?

    Ralph : A hundred bucks? I'll give you a one-way ticket to harp land. No more jokes! What'd you do with it?

    Jack T. Colton : What are you talkin' about?

    Ralph : The stone, moron!

  • Tarak : You are guests of Omar. Find for us the jewel. Accept your destiny!

    Jack T. Colton : Destiny, my ass.

  • Ralph : You hook up with a bunch of juju beads, you see what happens?

    Jack T. Colton : Just take you're lead from me and you'll be fine.

    Ralph : What are we going to do? Walk right through the center of town?

    Jack T. Colton : I'm going to put you up a camel's ass - for openers.

    Ralph : I think I might like it.

  • Jack Colton : [Jack points flair gun at the F-16 Pilot]  OK, flyboy. You're estimated time of departure is right now!

  • Jack Colton : All right!, If we get out of this alive, I'm going to kill you. Let's go, come on!
