Mrs. Davis : I didn't expect the SAS!
Professor Nick Cutter : The town council takes pest control very seriously, Mrs Davis.

Professor Nick Cutter : We better ship this lot back before we upset Darwin. Now, err... everybody grab a dodo.

Connor Temple : I can't do this anymore.
Professor Nick Cutter : Come here. We need you.
Connor Temple : If I hadn't been involved, Tom would still be alive.
Professor Nick Cutter : No. There's a handful of people in the whole world that know what's going on here what we are grappling with. And you're one of them. That would have made his day.
Connor Temple : He'd have loved it.
Professor Nick Cutter : So you can't bail out now. Okay?
-
Professor Nick Cutter : Relax, everyone. It's only a python.
Mrs. Davis : Only a *python*? What the hell were you expecting?

Professor Nick Cutter : According to Helen, a large pride has established its territory near an anomaly and it's only a matter of time before they find their way through it.
Claudia Brown : London is a big place. Where exactly is this going to happen?
Professor Nick Cutter : Well, that's your problem. She won't tell us. She wants to take us there herself.
Sir James Lester : It's a trick.
Claudia Brown : I agree.
Professor Nick Cutter : That's possible. But maybe she wants to prove to you that she's not as callous as you imagine.
Sir James Lester : She could do that without moving a muscle.
Professor Nick Cutter : She might well be selfish. But she's not evil. I know her.
Claudia Brown : You mean you *used* to know her.
-
Professor Nick Cutter : It's incredible.
Connor Temple : It's a big conjunction of anomalies.
Stephen Hart : There's no way I could follow her. It would be like running into a hall of mirrors.
Claudia Brown : Let me guess. No one sabre tooth cat in sight.
Stephen Hart : Not even a kitten.

Professor Nick Cutter : It's some kind of giant cestode. It's destroyed the internal organs and attacked the central nervous system.
Sir James Lester : I thought the trick of being a good parasite was to live of the host creature without killing it.
Professor Nick Cutter : No, this one doesn't compromise. It enters the blood stream as larva, it feeds of the host and then it moves up the body to lay its eggs.
Stephen Hart : Keeping itself alive just long enough to reproduce itself.
Professor Nick Cutter : And then, mission accomplished, they both die together.
Sir James Lester : Isn't nature wonderful?
-
Sir James Lester : So how exactly does the parasite passes itself on?
Professor Nick Cutter : Biting. In this case, but kissing would do just as well.
Sir James Lester : Well, from the look of him, kissing isn't likely to be much of an issue.
