Wilcox : [sees Jesse, Nadine and Elvis in the Big Dipper] GET THOSE KIDS OUT OF THE WATER! GET THEM OUT OF THE WATER!

John Milner : [shaking Jesse's hand] Hey, kid, you hit it out of the park. I'm impressed.
Milner's Assistant : John!
John Milner : Just a minute.
Milner's Assistant : You're gonna want to hear this.
[hands John the phone]
John Milner : John Milner here. Who is this?
Wilcox : Yeah, Pete Wilcox here. You said you got some problems up there?
John Milner : Yeah, that's right.
Wilcox : Well, listen up.

Wilcox : We haven't taken an orca out of the wild in 20 years. Now there's three, right in my hands. A million dollars each for the two young ones. Two mil for the older brother. Young males are particularly attractive just for their breeding capabilities. The older brother's already trained. He's a gold mine.
John Milner : You've got to be very careful.
Wilcox : Don't worry, you're covered. Long-term rehabilitation is what I recommend.
John Milner : Just as long as it looks like we have the whales' best interest at heart. Do you understand? That's all that matters to me.
[Elvis, having overheard the master plan, leaves the donut shop and takes his doughnut with him]
Wilcox : Sure and your ten percent. Besides, we do have their best interest at heart. They'll be well cared for, I assure you. In the meantime, they're getting nice and healthy. No reason why people shouldn't pay to see them. Right?

Wilcox : [shocked to see Jesse's friendship with Willy] The kid is nuts.
