Helga : Someone needs to talk to that girl.
Mole : I will go!
Vinny : Someone with good people skills.
Mole : I will do it!
Dr. Sweet : Someone who won't scare her away.
Mole : I volunteer!
Wilhelmina : Someone who can speak the language.
Mole : For the good of the mission, I will go!
Commander Rourke : [to Milo, who is not paying attention] Good man, Thatch. Thanks for volunteering.
[Mole cries]

[about the sound of the Leviathan]
Commander Rourke : What is it? A pod of whales?
Wilhelmina : Uh-uh. Bigger.
Helga : It sounds metallic. Could be an echo off one of the rocks.
Wilhelmina : Do you wanna do my job? Be my guest.

[Rourke has captured Milo and Kida after revealing his plan to steal the Heart of Atlantis]
Commander Rourke : Mercenary? I prefer the term "adventure capitalist". Besides, *you're* the one who got us here. You lead us right to the treasure chest.
[holds up the missing page]
Milo Thatch : You don't know what you're tampering with, Rourke!
Commander Rourke : What's to know? It's big, it's shiny, it's gonna make us all rich.
Milo Thatch : You think it's some kind of a diamond, *I* thought it was some kind of a battery, but we're *both* wrong! It's their *life force*! That crystal is the only thing keeping these people alive! You take that away, and they'll die!
Commander Rourke : Well, that changes things. Helga, what do you think?
Helga Sinclair : Knowing that, I'd *double* the price.
Commander Rourke : *I* was thinking triple.
Milo Thatch : Rourke, don't... *do* this!
Commander Rourke : [stuffs the missing page into his pants pocket] Academics. You never wanna get your hands dirty. Think about it. If you gave back every stolen artefact from a museum, you'd be left with an empty building. We're just... providing a necessary service to the archeological community.
Milo Thatch : Not interested.
Commander Rourke : [rubs his neck] I gotta admit, I'm disappointed. You're an idealist, just like your grandfather. Do yourself a favour, Milo. Don't be like him. For once, do the smart thing.
[Milo glares venomously]
Commander Rourke : [groans and shakes his head] Ah, I really hate it when negotiations go sour.
[snaps his fingers; a soldier aims his gun at Kida; Milo looks shocked]
Commander Rourke : Let's try this again.
[holds the missing page up to Milo's face]

Commander Rourke : So we find this masterpiece. Then what?
Mole : When do we dig?
Milo : Actually, we don't have to dig. You see, according to the journal, the path to Atlantis will take us down a tunnel at the bottom of the ocean and will come up a curve into an air pocket, right here, where we'll find the remnants of an ancient highway that will lead us to Atlantis. Kind of like the grease trap in your sink.
Helga : Cartographer, linguist, plumber. Hard to believe he's still single.
Mole : You said there would be digging.
Helga : Go away, Mole.
-
Helga : Commander, there were not supposed to be people down here. This changes everything.
Commander Rourke : This changes nothing.
-
Helga : [about Mr. Whitmore] And relax. He doesn't bite... often.
-
Helga : Someone's having a good time.
Commander Rourke : Like a kid at Christmas.
-
Helga : [Rourke betrays Helga by attempting to push her off the airship] You said we were in this together! You promised me a percentage!
Commander Rourke : Next time, get it in writing!
[throws Helga off]
Commander Rourke : Nothing personal!
