Quotes 

• Admiral Wilcox : Dr. Andrews. We've avoided all of Godzilla's known territorial waters according to your guidelines.

  Ilene Andrews : Good.

  Admiral Wilcox : Do I need to be concerned?

  Ilene Andrews : Yes. They do have a way of sensing threats. And we believe that they had an ancient rivalry. The myths say that their ancestors fought each other in a great war.

  Admiral Wilcox : So if they meet again, who bows to who, is that it?

  Ilene Andrews : No, I spent 10 years on that island studying him. I know this for sure. Kong bows to no one.

• Ilene Andrews : I knew that they had a bond. She had nowhere to go, so I made a promise to protect her, and I think that in some way, Kong did the same.

• Ilene Andrews : The myths are real. There was a war. And they're the last ones standing.

• Ilene Andrews : We believe that they had an ancient rivalry. The myths say that their ancestors fought each other in a great war.

  Ben : Dr. Andrews, did you see that?

  Ilene Andrews : The habitat's not gonna hold much longer.

  Ben : We need to start thinking about off-site solutions.

  Ilene Andrews : The island is the one thing that's kept him isolated. If he leaves, Godzilla will come for him. There cant be two alpha Titans.

• Ilene Andrews : No one can keep the reins on Kong.

• Ilene Andrews : This won't end until one of them submits.

• Ilene Andrews : [an apex robot obtains a sample of hollow earth energy]  What are you doing?

  Maia Simmons : Extracting a sample .

  Ilene Andrews : This is a power beyond our understanding. You can't just drill into it.

  Maia Simmons : Actually we can. My father gets what he wants. That's Alex property now.

  Ilene Andrews : What?

  Ren Serizawa : [from above at Apex cybernetics]  energy signature incoming. We should be able to recreate it soon.

  Ilene Andrews : [to Maia]  That is the discovery of the millennium. You can't strip it for parts.

  Maia Simmons : Hold it.

  [Apex soldiers hold guns on them] 

• Ilene Andrews : [signing]  Tell him there may be others like him down there.

  Jia : Family?

  Ilene Andrews : I don't know. I hope so.

• Ilene Andrews : [Godzilla is approaching the ships at sea]  Did we change course?

  Admiral Wilcox : No. We're nowhere near the areas you flagged.

  Nathan Lind : [looking at the radar]  It looks like he's coming for us anyway.

  Ilene Andrews : He's not coming for us.

  Maia Simmons : [referring to Kong as Godzilla is coming for him]  Him? Then dump him. Dump the monkey!

  Ilene Andrews : How about we throw you off instead, huh?

• Nathan Lind : [Godzilla is coming back for Kong after almost drowning him]  He's circling back.

  Ilene Andrews : This won't end until one of them submits.

  Nathan Lind : Shut it down.

  Ilene Andrews : What?

  Nathan Lind : All of it. Guns, engines. Shut it down. Right now.

  Admiral Wilcox : If we do that, we're dead.

  Nathan Lind : No, we're playing dead.

  Ilene Andrews : And we're making him think that he's won.

• Ilene Andrews : [referring to Godzilla after he's beaten Kong out at sea]  As soon as we move, he'll be back. How are we supposed to get the rest of the way?

  Nathan Lind : How's Kong with heights?

• Nathan Lind : [Kong doesn't go into the Hollow Earth entrance]  It's not working.

  Ilene Andrews : Just wait. Wait, wait, wait.

  Nathan Lind : What if she tells him there are others down there like him.

  Ilene Andrews : But you don't know that.

  Nathan Lind : We lost our entire fleet getting here. There's no way back for him. And he can't survive here.

  Ilene Andrews : All right. All right.

  Ilene Andrews : Hey.

  Ilene Andrews : Tell him... There could be more like him... Inside

  Jia : Family?
