Quotes
-
Newt Scamander : Dumbledore asked that I give you something, Jacob.
[taking out a magic wand]
Newt Scamander : It's snakewood. It's, uh, somewhat rare.
Jacob Kowalski : Are you kiddin' me right now? Is this thing real?
Newt Scamander : Yes. Well, it doesn't have a core, so sort of, but yes.
Jacob Kowalski : It's sorta real?
Newt Scamander : More importantly, where we're going, you'll need it. Now, there's something for you, too, I think, Theseus. Um... Teddy, please let go now. Teddy, please let go. No. Teddy, will you behave? This is Theseus'...
[he accidentally launches his Niffler at Jacob, then picks up a tie from the floor]
Newt Scamander : Um, that's...
Theseus Scamander : [taking it, sarcastic] Well, of course. Now everything makes sense.
Newt Scamander : Um, Lally, I believe you were given some reading material?
Eulalie 'Lally' Hicks : You know what they say. A book can take you around the world and back, all you have to do is open it.
Jacob Kowalski : She ain't kiddin'.

Albus Dumbledore : You know what this is, of course.
Theseus Scamander : Newt had it in Paris. I can't say I have much experience with such things, but it looks to me to be a blood troth.
Albus Dumbledore : That would be correct.
Theseus Scamander : And whose blood is contained within?
Albus Dumbledore : Mine. And Grindelwald's.
Theseus Scamander : I'm assuming that's why you can't move against him?
Albus Dumbledore : Yes. Nor he against me.
Theseus Scamander : Can I ask, what would possess you to make such a thing?
Albus Dumbledore : Love. Arrogance. Naivete. Pick your poison. We were young, we were going to transform the world. This ensured that we would, even if one of us had a change of heart.
Theseus Scamander : And what would happen if you were to fight him?
Albus Dumbledore : [holding it up to eye level] It's really quite beautiful, you have to admit. Were I even to think about defying it...
[the pendant hums and flies off the chain, carving its way up a stone wall; as Dumbledore tries to control it with his wand, the chain around his arm begins to tighten]
Albus Dumbledore : It knows, you see.
Newt Scamander : Albus.
Albus Dumbledore : It senses the betrayal in my heart.
Newt Scamander : Albus.
[the chain tightens around Dumbledore's throat]
Newt Scamander : Albus.
Albus Dumbledore : [as he calms down, the pendant flies back to his hand] That would be the least of it. Young man's magic, but as you can see, powerful magic. It can't be undone.
-
Newt Scamander : So, this is, um, this is Bunty Broadacre, my indispensable assistant for the past seven years.
Bunty : Eight... years. And 164 days.
Newt Scamander : As you can see, indispensable. And this is, uh...
Yusuf Kama : Yusuf Kama. Pleasure.
Newt Scamander : And you, obviously, already made Jacob's acquaintance.
Theseus Scamander : [clearing this throat] Newt.
Newt Scamander : Oh. So... so, this is my brother, Theseus, and, um, he works for the Ministry.
Theseus Scamander : Actually, head of the British Auror Office.
Eulalie 'Lally' Hicks : Ah! Well, I'll have to ensure my wand registration's up to date.
Theseus Scamander : Yes. Although, strictly speaking, that doesn't fall within my purview.
-
Jacob Kowalski : Is Tina coming?
Newt Scamander : Tina's not available. Um... Tina's been promoted, she's, uh, very, very busy from... well, from what I understand.
Eulalie 'Lally' Hicks : Tina's been made head of the American Auror Office.
Jacob Kowalski : Oh.
Eulalie 'Lally' Hicks : We know each other well. She's quite a remarkable woman.
Newt Scamander : She is.
Theseus Scamander : So, this is the team that's gonna take down the most dangerous wizard we've faced in over a century. A magizoologist, his indispensable assistant, a schoolteacher, a wizard descended from a very old French family, and... a Muggle baker with his fake wand.
Jacob Kowalski : Hey, we got you, too, pal, and his wand works.
Theseus Scamander : Who wouldn't like our chances?
-
Albus Dumbledore : Has Newt told you why you're here?
Theseus Scamander : Was he meant to?
Albus Dumbledore : No. As a matter of fact.
Newt Scamander : There's something that we, uh... that, uh, Dumbledore wishes to speak to you about.
-
Newt Scamander : What do they say at the Ministry? Liu or Santos?
Theseus Scamander : Well, officially, the Ministry takes no position. Unofficially, smart money's on Santos. Although, anyone would be better than Vogel.
Yusuf Kama : Anyone?
Theseus Scamander : [seeing Grindelwald's mug shot on the back page of his newspaper] I don't believe he's on the ballot, Kama. He also happens to be a fugitive.
