Christian Drake: Bob Rayburn

Quotes 

• [Bob prevents Clay from shooting Sheena's chimpanzee] 

  Roger Clay : Keep that beast away from me!

  Bob Rayburn : He's Sheena's pet! He won't hurt you.

  Sheena : Why you try to kill Chim?

  Roger Clay : Not my idea of a pet.

• Roger Clay : This Masai tribe - are they peaceful?

  Bob Rayburn : That all depends.

  Roger Clay : On what?

  Bob Rayburn : On what they think you're looking for and how you go about looking for it.

• Bob Rayburn : They're gone - but not far and not for long. They'll be stalking us from now on. We'll have to move along.

  Roger Clay : Aren't you going to turn back?

  Bob Rayburn : They'll attack us whatever way we move. Our best chance is to pass Kitmanju waterfall and gamble on running into a trader safari on the veldt.

  Roger Clay : Then I demand you send me back with half the bearers!

  Bob Rayburn : I can't do that, Clay. There aren't any bearers.

• Virginia Clay : What do you see? The elephants?

  Bob Rayburn : No, that clump of trees over there. They don't run deep and there's a clearing just beyond - a large one. Your father must have tried to set the plane down in a clearing. The tops of two of those trees were sheared off some time ago. You can see the jagged breaks where something hit them. We'll have a look.

• Sheena : Look!

  [Sheena points at a one-tusked elephant] 

  Bob Rayburn : Yes, the god of the Masai. Men must respect each others' gods.
