Doubts and Disillusionment in Ancient Adventures
Evie
Mister O'Connell, can you look me in the eye, and guarantee me that this isn't all some kind of a flimflam? Because I am warning you...
Rick O'Connell
You're warning me'? Lady, let me put it to you this way. My whole damn garrison believed in this city so much, that - without orders - they marched halfway across Libya and into Egypt just to find that city. And when we got there...all we found was sand, and blood. (Evie looks stunned) Lemme get your bags.
Jonathan
Yes, you're right. Filthy, rude, complete scoundrel, nothing to like there at all.

Consequences of Selling One's Soul
Inmate
What are you in for, brother?
Elliot
Eternity.
Inmate
Oooh. You must've done some really bad shit.
Elliot
The worst— I sold my soul.
Inmate
Well, I hope you got something good for it.
Elliot
Actually, I got nothing for it.
Inmate
Sounds like a really bad deal, if you ask me.
Elliot
I'm not asking you.
[glances over]
Inmate
Doesn't matter. You can't sell your soul. It doesn't really belong to you in the first place. No way, no how.
Elliot
Is that so? Then who does it belong to?
Inmate
It belongs to God: that universal spirit that animates and binds all things in existence. The Devil's gonna try and confuse you, but that's her gig. In the end, you're gonna see clear to who you are and what you're here to do. Now, you're gonna make some mistakes along the way. Everybody does. But if you just open up your heart, and open up your mind, you'll get it.
[looks straight at Elliot]
Elliot
Who are you?
Inmate
Just a friend brother. Just a really good friend.
