Quotes 

• [Chapter Four] 

  Spider Webb : Where's your father now, boy?

  Tim Tyler : You outta know. You've got his Jungle Cruiser.

  Spider Webb : Jungle Cruiser? Oh, you mean that armored tank. Why, we didn't even know it belonged to your father. We found it abandoned in the jungle.

  Garry Drake : Yeah, that's right. We found it.

  Tim Tyler : You expect me to believe that? You STOLE it from him, that's what you did.

  Spider Webb : Too bad you feel that way about it, sonny. You've got us all wrong. We want to help you FIND your father.

  Tim Tyler : So you can make him tell you where the elephants' burial ground is, eh? Well, I don't need your help! I can find him myself.

  Spider Webb : I'm sorry but you're not leaving here for a while yet.

  Tim Tyler : No?

  Spider Webb : And I wouldn't advise you to try it, because nobody can get out of this swamp alive unless they know their way through the quicksand.

• [Chapter Four] 

  Spider Webb : How would you find a man in the jungle?

  Mogu : I would have drums talk for me, bwana.

  Spider Webb : Could you find a white man that way?

  Mogu : Nothing move in jungle that some eye does not see.

• [Chapter Five] 

  Garry Drake : Just what're you gonna do with the kid anyway, Spider?

  Spider Webb : I'm gonna keep him here until I get my hands on the ivories, then I'll turn him loose.

  Garry Drake : Turn him loose?

  Spider Webb : Yes, turn him loose - and forget to tell him how to get through the quicksand.

  [Prof. Tyler sees Spider's party return to camp without Tim and fears the worst] 

  Spider Webb : Get this, Tyler. If you don't tell me where the elephants' burial ground is, there WILL be a death in the Tyler family.

  Professor Tyler : There's only one thing can make me tell you that, Spider, and that is your guarantee of my boy's safety.

• [Chapter Twelve] 

  Lora Lacey : Oh, Spider, please. It can't do you any harm now. You stole those diamonds in Kimberley and framed it on Donald. Won't you tell the truth, please?

  [Spider laughs, coughs, and dies]
