Quotes 

• Jonny Quest : [a dinosaur flies in front of their jet]  What was that, Dad?

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : I don't know. It looked like a pterodactyl with a brontosaurus head.

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : A flying nightmare is more like it.

• Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : No doubt about it, Doctor, another vehicle was through here not long ago. We're not the only ones on this island.

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : Perhaps I should inform the general and let the military take it from here.

  [a growl is heard] 

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : What's that?

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : Great heavens!

  [another monster enters] 

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : It's some kind of dinosaur.

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : Several kinds I'd say, it's a pre-historic mutation, like that flying reptile we saw.

• Dr. Phorbus : Undoubtedly you've been wondering how I created my dinosaur hybrids.

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : It crossed my mind.

  Dr. Phorbus : See? I clone them directly from the cells of fossilized dinosaurs, I brought to life creatures dead millions of years

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : I bet a certain foreign interest paid a great deal for those secrets.

  Dr. Phorbus : And they'll pay even more for my ultimate creation.

  [the Reptilian surfaces] 

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : What in Heaven's name?

  Dr. Phorbus : You see before you my Reptilian, the result of combining dinosaur and human bones in my cloning process.

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : I bet you Lizard Lips here attacked those radar bases.

  Dr. Phorbus : Yes, to test his destructible potential and response to commands. You see he's the first shall we say, soldier of his kind. Those same foreign interests would pay a fortune for an army of such powerful creatures. As army I'll shortly be bringing to life.

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : Only a madman would create this.

  Simon : [holding laser stunner on him]  Back off, Doctor!

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : You back off!

  [throws Simon across the room, grabs for the laser gun] 

  Dr. Phorbus : Get him!

  [the Reptilian catches Race and incapacitates him] 

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : [groaning]  Oh, great.

  Dr. Phorbus : That was very foolish, Mr. Bannon.

• Dr. Benton C. Quest : [encounters another dinosaur]  Another one, part triceratops, part dimetrodon, part...

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : [it charges them]  Uh oh, I think we better get away from these *parts*.

  Simon : [zaps the dinosaur]  Back off, beast!

  [the dinosaur wanders off] 

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : I guess thanks are in order.

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : Yeah, that's a mighty handy gadget you got there.

  Simon : It's a stunner, especially designed to control these creatures... as well as unwelcome guests.

  [Race and Dr. Quest step back] 

• Jonny Quest : [Race has been tied to a tree for a dinosaur to eat]  Race!

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : Jonny, Hadji, hurry! I'm expecting a guest for dinner.

  Hadji : [untying the ropes]  We'll have you free in no time.

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : [hears a monstrous growl]  Uh oh, my guest is early.

• Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : Well, we combed every square inch of the place, still no sign of anyone.

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : That's too bad, Phorbus had a brilliant mind.

  Jonny Quest : Just a little weird.

  Hadji : No, a *whole lot* of weird.
