Tomb Raider II (1997 Video Game)

Simon Greenall: Claudio, Fabio, Brother Chan Barkhang, Goons, Monks

Quotes 

• Lara Croft : [aims her pistol at Claudio]  Pardon me, if that was just your way of trying the doors for me.

  Claudio : Hahaha! With the tommy gun on my key-ring?

  Lara Croft : [continues aiming]  Though not anymore. So, after you.

  Claudio : Somehow, you don't behave like you've got a monk's blood.

  Lara Croft : I understand that "somehow" is in my favour. So indulge me about the dagger. I'd be indebted with your life.

  Claudio : These doors are waiting for the right one, the right time to arrive, and then the dagger's blade will honor the hearts of those who believe.

  [Claudio takes out a bottle of poison and opens the cap.] 

  Lara Croft : So unless you pledge your loyalty as well... And which one is that?

  Claudio : To the sins and fortunes of Marco Bartoli!

  [Claudio drinks the poison and dies instantly.] 

  Lara Croft : Perhaps not just yet, then.

• Chen Barkhang : Oh, you are not one of them.

  Lara Croft : But you are a monk?

  Chen Barkhang : Brother Chen Barkhang. You have come for me. I saw bright light surround me.

  Lara Croft : [frees Chen]  That was gunfire. I think it was them who got taken away by it.

  Chen Barkhang : But you are my guide, my path-beater to a next incarnation. I have done my time here, haven't I?

  Lara Croft : What are you doing here... with Marco Bartoli?

  [Lara goes to the rack with several diving suits.] 

  Chen Barkhang : Nothing! I live righteous life... here for reasons rooted only in necessary evil as my father was before me when he bombed Gianni's vessel deep into these waters. Now I'm here, ah, was here, to prevent his son from salvaging the Seraph.

  Lara Croft : The Seraph?

  Chen Barkhang : You not know my life's work well?

  [Chen points to the dead thugs.] 

  Chen Barkhang : You sure you not here for them?

  [Lara changes outfits.] 

  Lara Croft : Their Jackanory days are well over.

  [Lara changes outfits.] 

  Chen Barkhang : hey want the Seraph to unlock a malignant treasure we contain in our monastery in Tibet. Since being stolen by imbecile vagabonds centuries ago, we been without key to it. Relying solely on cleansing of our prayers to keep it subdued. Then the occultist, Gianni B., acquired it.

  [Lara tosses one of her boots over Chen.] 

  Chen Barkhang : Trouble we knew. He breathed life back into ancient beliefs, one not to be stopped by any amount of head bowing. And now again it is here. Marco, infected with madness. He has violent mind but not yet the power to satiate it. So we reach for our weapons once more.

  Lara Croft : [finishes putting on a wetsuit]  The true Dettox of evil.

  Chen Barkhang : Where can you be taking me? Thought this was my big leak. Guess change is good at best. Huh, I need one.

• Fabio : It's not the workload that is worrying me. Perhaps Gianni had never.. I don't know... It's just his grave has surrendered nothing, like we say, substantial. it's all very interesting. Oh, yes, I'm sure of it. Believe me, but it's not quite the same now is it?

  Marco Bartoli : Someday you will get a speeding ticket for that tongue, Fabio.

  Fabio : Hey, it's just a gut feeling, but maybe you are wrong to look there.

  Marco Bartoli : [punches Fabio in the gut]  Is your belief so fragile?

  [the punch makes Fabio double over and he accidentally pushes the control column, causing the plane to dive and knocking Lara while she's raiding the wooden boxes.] 

  Marco Bartoli : Relax. Breathe deep.

  [Marco eases Fabio back upright, the plane goes level again.] 

  Marco Bartoli : The gut, Fabio, has no more direction than a simple 'through and out'. Honest perhaps, but not enlightened. When my father left when I was a boy, he confided to me that he was enlightened... beckoned by something greater than impulse. He possessed the Seraph.

  [Lara climbs the ladder.] 

  Marco Bartoli : But he was just a disciple in this design, his death plotting a path to be sought by the one - his son. You understand? Have faith, Fabio, not gut-rot. We are searching the right place.

  Fabio : I know it. I believe it, Marco.

  Fabio : Good. Eros?

  [Lara aims her pistols.] 

  Fabio : Have you... fix the rail yet?

  Eros : [knocks out Lara from behind]  Si!

• Marco Bartoli : I have no preference. He should spill a bit of both!

  Thug : O.K., Marco, Glad to have you aboard,

  [the thugs interrogate Chan.] 

  Thug : What do you want? Come on. Stick through your stomach?

  [the killer punches Chan] 

  Thug : Tell me where in monastery should we look? Eh, brother.

  [Chan continues to get tortured.]
