Dr. Minway Zhang: [to Jonas] We have a shark cage and spearguns on board. If we can shoot the meg in a soft spot like its mouth or gills, we can inject it with something lethal.
Mac: Whoa, whoa, whoa. It's gonna take at least 20 minutes to rig the cage. And that thing will be gone in two.
Jack Morris: Why don't you just put a tracker

on it? Don't you guys ever watch Shark Week? You have one of those, like, GPS tracker tag thingamajigs. Keep an eye on the shark till the cage is ready.
The Wall: We should be able to put a tracking dart in that dorsal fin.
Jack Morris: You're welcome.

Jonas Taylor: Hey, I mean no offense, Dr. Zhang. I mean, if there was two people on this planet that could get me back into the water, it's probably you two. But you can't. You're gonna tell me your problem and I'll say no. You're going to offer me money. I'll still say no. You're gonna appeal to my better nature and I'm gonna say no. Because I don't have one.

Jonas Taylor: You know a lot.

Suyin: I'm trapped! I'm in it's mouth!
Jaxx: [reassuringly] That cage will not break.
Suyin: That's the problem. The cage is being swallowed.

Dr. Minway Zhang: Since 1875 we've all believed the Mariana Trench was the deepest place on Earth. I've had a theory that we think is the bottom might actually be a layer if hydrogen sulfide. Beneath that cloud, and a freezing cold thermocline there could be a completely different world.
Jack Morris: Wow.
Suyin: The Origin is about

to see if my father is right. If there is warm water below, that means we're going to be the first to see it.
Jack Morris: And what if you're wrong?
Dr. Minway Zhang: Then you have wasted $1.3 billion.
Jack Morris: [laughs] You're kidding. He's kidding, right?

Jonas Taylor: Hello, skipper.
Meiying: You must be the crazy guy.
Jonas Taylor: Now who called me that?
Meiying: My mom. Dr. Heller.
Jonas Taylor: Yeah, well, I'm not crazy. I've just seen things no one else has.
Meiying: That's definition of crazy.

Lori: Mac told me about you and Suyin.
Jonas Taylor: [Smirks] Nothing to tell.
Lori: Well, maybe there could be.
Jonas Taylor: You and Mac are unbelievable.
Lori: How about you just try something new. So the rest of your life isn't a vast wasteland of misery and solitude.

Meiying: [Smiling; returning with 2 sodas and a juice box] I think that's a good idea.
Lori: You do, huh?
Jonas Taylor: [Repeating what Meiying told him earlier] Eight-year olds hear everything.
Meiying: Jonas...
[Motions with finger to come closer]
Meiying: My mom likes you too.


[Meiying raises her eyebrows a few times, causing Lori to laugh]
Jonas Taylor: This is possibly the worst moment of my life.

Mac: How're you gonna kill it?
Jonas Taylor: Evolution. I'm going to make this thing bleed.

Heller: He's in perfect shape.
Jonas Taylor: Just like the last time you examined me.
Mac: [walks in the medic bay] Suyin took a glider 15 minutes ago. She's planning on taking the Origin back up.
Jonas Taylor: Take me to the sub.
Heller: We're not done here.
Jonas

Taylor: Yeah, we are. Lori's running out of air and we're in international waters, which means legally I can beat the ever-loving shit out of you and get away with it.
Mac: It's true. Legally, I mean

Meiying: [to Jonas after he returns with Meiying's mother] Thanks for keeping your promise.

Dr. Minway Zhang: Mac, have Dr. Heller meet us in the medical bay.
Jonas Taylor: Heller?
Mac: Did I not mention that?
Jonas Taylor: [as the elevator door shuts] You mother...

Suyin: My God! It's a shark. It's like, 20, 25 meters long.
Jonas Taylor: It's a megalodon.
Dr. Minway Zhang: Impossible.
Jonas Taylor: So glad I'm not crazy.

The Meg

Jack Morris: Well, how do you like that? That was a serious man versus nature moment. I'm glad things went our way.
Dr. Minway Zhang: It didn't go our way. Not for Toshi and not for science. We did what people always do - discover and then destroy.

Suyin: This is what attacked us. A megalodon.
DJ: How big is that thing?
Suyin: Between 70 and 90 feet, 21 to 27 meters. The megalodon was the largest shark that ever existed. It feared nothing. it had no predators. it's jaws were stronger than any other animal, ever. The meg could bite a whale in half, crushing through the bones.


Dr. Minway Zhang: We are in uncharted territory. Until today, megalodons were thought to have been extinct for over 2 million years.
DJ: Wrong.
Jaxx: A living fossil.
The Wall: That living fossil ate my friend.

Suyin: You couldn't bring Toshi back? Why not?
Jonas Taylor: He closed the hatch. He saved us.
Suyin: You left him. You left him because that's who you are. You are the guy who leaves people behind.
Jonas Taylor: You go that deep, you take your life in your hands. It was your choice to send them down.
