Mike Road: Race Bannon, Hadji

Quotes 

• Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : Now, the next time you try to sneak up on somebody, make sure Bandit's motor isn't running.

• Jonny Quest : [hearing a howl]  Hey, what was that?

  Dr. Hamid Kareem : Either a fox or a jackal.

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : Maybe it's that god Anubis wandering around looking for his temple.

  [agitated servants mumble lowly] 

  Dr. Hamid Kareem : I am afraid my servants do not appreciate your sense of humor, Mr. Bannon. They consider any mention of Anubis an omen of ill luck. To them the curse of Anubis is a very real thing.

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : You mean the superstition that whoever enters the god's temple will die?

  [servants mumble lowly again] 

  Dr. Hamid Kareem : To you a superstition, to them the truth.

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : Dr. Kareem, now that's a pretty good clue. Whoever stole the statue isn't superstitious.

• Dr. Benton C. Quest : I am probably imagining things, but I want you to be prepared.

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : For what?

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : I don't know. Maybe only my imagination, Race, but over the course of years I've learned to trust my feelings. In my experience, when archaeologists find something new and important, they can't wait to publicize it.

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : Yet Dr. Kareen is keeping his finding secret.

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : Right.

• Dr. Hamid Kareem : You and Mr. Bannan will be found here with the god Anubis, and it will appear to be a foreign plot to steal one of our ancient treasures. I have dedicated my life to welding all our peoples together. This is the thing that will trigger that unity. We will become a great nation again.

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : And what makes you think we'll hold still for your crackpot accusation?

  Dr. Hamid Kareem : [drawing out a gun]  As you can see, you have no choice.
