- Dr. Sam Beckett: [about the Bermuda Triangle] You're not gonna tell me that you believe all the myths, are you?
- Admiral Al Calavicci: Sam, a lot of freaky things have happened out here. There are ships that disappear, planes vanish, even on clear days. Like this one.
- Dr. Sam Beckett: Disasters at sea are not that uncommon, even on clear days like this one.
- Admiral Al Calavicci: There's theories that say that it's either electromagnetic vortices or else it's...
- Dr. Sam Beckett: Or sea monsters.
- Admiral Al Calavicci: How did you know?
- Dr. Sam Beckett: Right, I remember.
- Admiral Al Calavicci: Giant prehistoric lizard fish have been seen by sailors in the Ber...
- [Sam starts laughing]
- Admiral Al Calavicci: What's so funny? What're you laughin' about?

- Capt. Cooper: I wasn't in the water those eight days in '44. I was picked up by the USS Cyclops the day I went in. Seven days later, she was torpedoed. Went down with everyone but me. A freighter, the Michael Z picked me up the next day. Now twice in eight days, I was the only survivor.
- Sam: Well, that is quite a coincidence.
- Capt. Cooper: Yeah, I guess so.
- Al: [consulting the handlink] Sam, the USS Cyclops disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle in 1918, twenty-six years before Cooper was picked up.
- [Sam - as Eddie - has urged Cooper to fly to Bermuda, to get Michelle to a much-needed hospital]
- Capt. Cooper: I know this pond, Eddie. Today is not the day to push into it.
- Dr. Sam Beckett: If we don't, Michelle is gonna die.
- Capt. Cooper: You really believe that, don't you?
- Dr. Sam Beckett: Stake my life on it.
- Capt. Cooper: No. You're stakin' all our lives on it.
