• Jim Prideaux : [talking to Roach]  We've got a secret, haven't we? I can trust you, I know that. We're good at keeping secrets, you and me.

  Roach : Is it because of that man? Would you shoot him? Are you working undercover, like Bulldog Drummond in the book? Some of the boys wanted to call you Bulldog, but we thought Rhino was better. Bigger than a bulldog.

  Jim Prideaux : Well I, uh... I used to be a soldier, Jumbo. What you saw just now, that's a souvenir, you know, it's like this...

  [he points to his back] 

  Jim Prideaux : How I got it, they're both secrets, I keep them to myself. Y'understand that, don't you Jumbo?

  Roach : Yes, sir.

  Jim Prideaux : Knew you would, knew you would.

• [first lines] 

  Roach : [driving the Alvis]  Please sir. How long sir?

• [Prideaux rushes outside his trailer upon hearing a noise...] 

  Roach : Please, sir!

  Jim Prideaux : Oh, it's you Jumbo!
