    Mike Rogo : So... he recognized ya, so?

    Mrs. Linda Rogo : So doesn't that bother you?

    Mike Rogo : If it bothered me, I wouldn'ta married ya.

    Mrs. Linda Rogo : Well first you arrested me six times.

  • Mike Rogo : Ya had a lotta guts, lady... a lotta guts.

  • Reverend Frank Scott : Through the kitchens and go deeper and deeper in the ship till we reach the hull. That way!

    Mike Rogo : And you just kick out the botton and we swim ashore, huh?

    Linda Rogo : Or maybe you could yell 'This is the police' and it'll open right up!

    Mike Rogo : Don't be a smartass!

    Linda Rogo : Just panties. What else do I need?

  • Mike Rogo : You! Preacher! Murderer! I started to believe in your promises, that we had a chance. What chance?

  • Mike Rogo : Wait a minute! This is no goddamn engine room!

    Reverend Frank Scott : There was a corridor leading to the engine room.

    Mr. Manny Rosen : But now it's underwater.

    Reverend Frank Scott : All right. We'll swim through it. Give me the rope.

    Linda Rogo : You've gotta be kidding!

    Mike Rogo : She's right. If the corridor's underwater what about the engine room?

    Reverend Frank Scott : It's in the clear. It's one deck up. It's above us. We'll swim through the bulkhead, down a short corridor and up a companionway. It can't be more than thirty five feet at the most.

    Linda Rogo : Oh, is that all!

    Reverend Frank Scott : We can do it. Trust me, we can do it!

  • Mike Rogo : Brandy. Rope. Axe.

  • Reverend Frank Scott : Maybe by climbing out of here, we can save ourselves. You got any sense, you'll come along with us. Grab a hold!
