Alex O'Connell: Yeah, we can get in close, Dad. And then we can finish him off with Lin's dagger.
Rick O'Connell: Look, I'm sorry, I just don't put much faith in your girlfriend's magic dagger.
Alex O'Connell: Okay, Dad, she is not my girlfriend.
Rick O'Connell: You say that now, but I still don't trust her.


Alex O'Connell: Well, I do. So you should trust *my* judgement, okay?

Alex O'Connell: Besides... you're not my type.
Lin: Of course not. You don't like a woman who can knock you on your backside.
Alex O'Connell: [chuckles] The expression "kick my ass." For the record, you didn't.

Jonathan Carnahan: Boys! If I may... Do we have a plan for the Emperor?
Rick O'Connell: Yeah. We're gonna hit him high, hard and fast and smash him like a Ming vase.
Jonathan Carnahan: And if that doesn't work?
Rick O'Connell: We go to plan B... Plan B! You go upstairs, you blow up that gold tower thing. You

light it up. We blow the guy sky high!
Jonathan Carnahan: Me?

Jonathan Carnahan: Much as I'd like to stay this boyishly handsome forever, Shangri-La is a crock.
Rick O'Connell: Yeah, but that's what you used to say about mummies, too, Jon. You did pretty well off it.
Jonathan Carnahan: Good point.

Jonathan Carnahan: [talking to the yak] Yeah, it's not easy being me, you know. Then again, I don't suppose its easy being you, is it, Geraldine, old girl? If I'd met a girl like you, Geraldine, you know, hard-working, you don't say much... you're a little bit hairy, but I don't mind that.

Rick O'Connell: So how did your book reading go?
Evelyn O'Connell: Oh, fine. Thank you.
[discouraging]
Evelyn O'Connell: Until they asked me, ''When will there be another Mummy adventure?''
Rick O'Connell: Yeah, but you did promise the publisher a third book.
Evelyn O'Connell: I

know. But I spend my nights staring at a blank page, completely blocked.
Rick O'Connell: We could skip dinner, and I could...

Rick O'Connell: ... attempt to inspire you upstairs.
Evelyn O'Connell: Oh, that's so sweet of you, darling. But I'm going to sit at that typewriter until something exciting

comes out.
