- Dr. Winston Seth: Jason, there's an old Japanese saying. "The carp smiles at the surface, for he has seen the wonders below."
- Jason Bates: What does that mean?
- Dr. Winston Seth: How would I know? I'm from India.
- [laughs]
- Dr. Winston Seth: You don't appear to be looking forward to your stay in ORCA, Jason.
- Jason Bates: Look, I wasn't given any say in this. I was just dragged away from my mates, my aeroboard, my laserblades, everything, to be buried alive in this dump. And for what? I mean, how much more is there for you guys to learn?
- Dr. Winston Seth: Oh, we haven't even scratched the surface yet, Jason. There are things under the sea that we don't even know about yet.
- Brett Bates: There's one thing that explains it all, of course. You've finally gone crazy.
- Jason Bates: I'm not crazy, you little creep.
- Brett Bates: That's what crazy people always say though, isn't it?
- Jason Bates: Listen. I did see a girl. I don't know how and I don't know why, but she must be out there somewhere. And I'm going to prove it. Even if I have to stay here for the rest of my life, I'm not leaving until I find her.
