Lucky Larry: You know, I forgot. Big hero. Rescued all those women and children from the fires. Got elected. Man of the people. But you're not the boss anymore. Hm? You quit. Couldn't hack it. If I recall correctly, you couldn't even hang onto your wife. Come on. Come on.

Jennifer Ramsey: Dad. Calm down. Let it go. Okay. Please?

Lucky Larry: [mocking] Daddy, please". Come on.

Robert Ramsey: Excuse me?

Captain Bradford: I am within my authority to compel you to stay, you know that.

Elena Morales: I feel like I know your dad.

Jennifer Ramsey: He was mayor of New York for a while, back when I was a kid.

Jennifer Ramsey: It wasn't.

Robert Ramsey: Now I know we're on this ship, but technically you two are still under my roof and it makes me uncomfortable... you two... alone.

Jennifer Ramsey: Dad, do you have any idea how big this ship is? Don't you think if we really wanted to we could find somewhere away from you to do that thing you're so afraid of us doing?

Dylan Johns: Does your husband...

Maggie James: Oh, does that work much?

Dylan Johns: What?

Maggie James: The tentative mention of a husband I'm supposed to correct, even though you clocked my wedding finger twice already.

Jennifer Ramsey: [walks to poker table with Christian] We're going downstairs now.

Robert Ramsey: Ok, have fun... Hey Jen...

Jennifer Ramsey: [looks down at her cleavage] The twins? Dad...

Robert Ramsey: Just one more button.

Jennifer Ramsey: [closes a button of her shirt] Pair of 5's, huh dad?

Dylan Johns: All in.

Robert Ramsey: [frowns] I fold.

Richard Nelson: I wouldn't put a lot of faith on what the captain says. I'm an architect, and these boats weren't designed to float upside down.

Dylan Johns: [To Maggie] You know, normally what you get on these cruise ships is a desperate single woman hoping to meet a guy, and, uh- you sure don't fit the bill.

Robert Ramsey: [to Dylan] You know, there's nothing fair about who lives and dies. You gave Elena a chance. You gave everybody a chance.

Captain Michael Bradford: [This announcement causes panicked chatter to rise from the Passengers; a few ask if the ship is sinking] (After the ship has capsized) Now we're not sure exactly what happened here, but our best guess is that we were struck by what is known as a rogue wave. They are rare, they are unpredictable, and they are lethal, Now the good news. The instant this ship was struck, emergency GPS locater beacons were launched, so we are at most, several hours from rescue. Please, do yourselves a favor. Follow the directions of my officers, and stay calm. This room is a giant air bubble holding up the ship. Once these bulkhead doors are sealed, we will be safe from gas leaks, fire, and flooding. We will be safe.
