THE ABYSS

The Abyss

Bud: When it comes to the safety of these people, there's me and then there's God, understand?

[About to drown on purpose.]
Lindsay Brigman: This was maybe not such a good idea!

Bud "Virgil" Brigman: God damn it, you bitch! You never backed away from anything in your life! Now fight! [Slaps Lindsay.] Fight! [Slaps Lindsay again.] Fiiiiight!

Lindsay Brigman: [About the Navy SEALS.] These guys are about as fun as a tax audit.

Lindsay Brigman: We all see what we want to see. Coffey looks and he sees Russians. He sees hate and fear. You have to look with better eyes than that.

Lt. Coffey: We don't need them. We can't trust them. We may have to take steps. We're gonna have to take steps.

Bud "Virgil" Brigman: [regarding Lindsay Brigman] God, I hate that bitch.
Alan "Hippy" Carnes: You probably shouldn't have married her then.

Lindsay Brigman: Explorer, this is Cab 3, starting the descent along the cable.
Some guy: Roger that, Cab 3. Good luck.
Lindsay Brigman: Luck is not a factor.

Bud "Virgil" Brigman: Hippy, you think everything is a conspiracy.
Alan "Hippy" Carnes: Everything is.

Lt. Coffey: It went straight for the warhead, and they think it's cute!

Lindsay Brigman: There is something down there. Something not us.
Catfish De Vries: You could be more specific.
Lindsay Brigman: Not us. Not human, get it? Something non-human but intelligent ... A non-terrestrial intelligence.
Alan "Hippy" Carnes: A non-terrestrial intelligence? NTIs. Oh man, that's better than UFOs. Oh, but that works too, huh? "Underwater Flying Objects".

Bud "Virgil" Brigman: Linds, I want you to stay away from that guy. I mean it.
Alan "Hippy" Carnes: The guy is gone. Did you see his hands?
Lindsay Brigman: What? He got the shakes?
Bud "Virgil" Brigman: Look, he's operating on his own. He's cut off from his chain of command. He's showing signs of pressure-induced psychosis, and he's got a nuclear weapon. So as a personal favor to me, will you try to put your tongue in neutral for a while?
Alan "Hippy" Carnes: I got to tell you, I give this whole thing a spinchter-factor of about 9.5.

Lindsay Brigman: So raise your hand if you think that was a Russian water-tentacle.

Lt. Coffey: Everybody just stay calm. The situation is under control.
