Abigail Chase
- Ben Gates: [after he and Riley rescued Abigail from Ian's truck] You all right?
- Abigail Chase: No, those - those lunatics...
- Ben Gates: You're not hurt, are you?
- Abigail Chase: YOU'RE ALL LUNATICS!
- Ben Gates: You hungry?
- Abigail Chase: What?
- Ben Gates: Are you all right?
- Riley Poole: Still a little on-edge from being shot at but I'll be okay, thanks for asking.
- Abigail Chase: Yeah, well I'm not all right! Those men have the Declaration of Independence!
- Riley Poole: SHE LOST IT?
- Ben Gates: They don't have it.
- [He pulls the Declaration out to show her]
- Ben Gates: See? Okay? Now could you please stop shouting?
- Abigail Chase: [She reaches for it, but he pulls it away] Give me that!
- Ben Gates: You're still shouting, and it's really starting to annoy. You would do well, Dr. Chase, to be a little more civilized in this instance.
- Abigail Chase: If this is the real one, what did they get?
- Ben Gates: A souvenir. I thought it'd be a good idea to have a duplicate, turns out I was right. I actually had to pay for the souvenir and the real one, so you owe me $35, plus tax.
- Riley Poole: Genius.
- Abigail Chase: Who were those men?
- Ben Gates: Just the guys we warned you were going to try to steal the Declaration.
- Riley Poole: And you didn't believe us!
- Ben Gates: We did the only thing we could do to keep it safe.
- Abigail Chase: Verdammt! Give me that!
- Ben Gates: You know something? You're shouting again.
- Riley Poole: Pretty sure she was swearing too.
- Ben Gates: Well, we probably deserved that.
- Abigail Chase: What do you see?
- Ben Gates: 2:22.
- Abigail Chase: What time is it now?
- Clothing Store Clerk: Almost 3.
- Abigail Chase: [sighs] We missed it.
- Riley Poole: No, we didn't. We didn't miss it because... you don't know this? I know something about history that you don't know.
- Ben Gates: I'd be very excited to learn about it, Riley.
- Riley Poole: Hold on one second, let me just take in this moment. This is cool. Is this how you feel all the time? Well, except now.
- Abigail Chase: Riley!
- Riley Poole: All right! What I know is that daylight savings wasn't established until World War I. If it's 3 p.m. now that means that in 1776 it would be 2 p.m.
- Ben Gates: Riley, you're a genius.
- Patrick Gates: [to Abigail and Riley] And he dragged you two into this nonsense?
- Abigail Chase: Literally.
- Riley Poole: I volunteered.
- Ben Gates: It's invisible.
- Abigail Chase: Oh! Right.
- Riley Poole: And that's where we lost the Department of Homeland Security.
- Benjamin Franklin Gates: I'm so sorry I dropped you - I had to save the Declaration!
- Abigail Chase: No, don't be. I would have done exactly the same to you.
- Benjamin Franklin Gates: Really?
- Abigail Chase: Yeah.
- Riley Poole: I would've dropped you both! Freaks.
- Butcher Lady: If you're not a steak, you don't belong here.
- Abigail Chase: I'm just trying to hide from my ex-husband.
- Butcher Lady: [sees Shaw] Who, Baldie?
- Abigail Chase: Yes.
- Butcher Lady: Honey, stay as long as you like.
- Abigail Chase: Huh, thank you.
- Butcher Lady: [to Shaw] You want something?
- [leaning on the counter panting, while looking around for Abigail]
- Butcher Lady: Do you want something?
- Shaw: [unnerved] Shut up.
- [leaves]
- Butcher Lady: [to Abigail] I see why you left him.
- Riley Poole: They're like Early American x-ray specs.
- Abigail Chase: Benjamin Franklin invented something like these.
- Ben Gates: Uh, I think he invented *these*.
- Abigail Chase: There is not a treasure map on the back of the Declaration of Independence.
- Ben Gates: And there's no chance anyone can steal this...
- [shakes the tube containing the Declaration]
- Ben Gates: ... either.
- [shakes the tube again]
- Ben Gates: I leveled with you one hundred percent. Everything I told you was the truth.
- Abigail Chase: I want that document, Mr. Brown.
- Ben Gates: Ok, my name's not Brown. It's Gates. I leveled with you ninety-eight percent.
- Abigail Chase: Wait a minute, did you just say "Gates"?
- [brief pause]
- Abigail Chase: "Gates"? You're that family with the conspiracy theory about the founding fathers?
- Ben Gates: It's not a conspiracy theory.
- Riley Poole: Per se.
- Abigail Chase: You know what? I take it back. You're not liars. You're insane.
- Ben Gates: I'm in a little trouble.
- Patrick Gates: Is she pregnant?
- Ben Gates: If she is would you leave the mother of your grandchild standing out in the cold?
- Patrick Gates: Come in.
- Abigail Chase: [to Riley] I look pregnant?
- [He shakes his head]
- Riley Poole: Ben, you know what you have to do.
- Ben Gates: I know what I *have* to do, I'm just trying to think if there's anything else we *could* do.
- Riley Poole: Well not to be a nudge, but you do realize how many people we have after us. We probably have our own satellite by now. It took you all of two seconds to decide to steal the Declaration of Independence...
- Ben Gates: Yeah but I didn't think I was *personally* going to have to tell my Dad about it!
- Ben Gates: [Abigail tries to run away with the Declaration] Hey! Not cool! Not cool!
- [Grabs her]
- Abigail Chase: Let me go!
- Ben Gates: [Taking back the Declaration] Okay, you're let go. Now shoo.
- Abigail Chase: I'm not going.
- [Tries to take back the Declaration]
- Abigail Chase: Not without the Declaration.
- Ben Gates: [Pulling the Declaration away] You're not going with the Declaration.
- Abigail Chase: Yes I am. I'm not letting it out of my sight, so I'm going.
- Ben Gates: Wait. You're not going with us, with the Declaration.
- Abigail Chase: Yes I am.
- Ben Gates: No, you're not!
- Abigail Chase: Look, if you wanted to leave me behind, you shouldn't have told me where you were going.
- Riley Poole: [Bangs head on car door frame]
- Abigail Chase: What led you to assume there's this invisible map?
- Ben Gates: We found an engraving on the stem of a 200-year-old pipe.
- Riley Poole: Owned by the Free Masons.
- Abigail Chase: May I see the pipe?
- Ben Gates: We don't actually have it.
- Abigail Chase: [beat, leans forward conspiratorially] Did Bigfoot take it?
- Abigail Chase: You know, I really couldn't accept something like that normally, but - I really want it.
- Ben Gates: Well, you needed it.
- Abigail Chase: [Ben Gates is trying to figure out how to get the Silence Dogood letters without letting his dad know he stole the Declaration of Independence] You have the original Silence Dogood letters? Steal those too?
- Ben Gates: They're scans of the originals. Quiet please.
- Abigail Chase: How did you get scans?
- Ben Gates: I know the person who has the originals, now shush.
- Abigail Chase: Why do you need them?
- Ben Gates: She really can't shut her mouth, can she?
- [Offering her the Declaration]
- Ben Gates: Look, I will let you hold this if you promise to *shut up*, please! Thank you.
- Riley Poole: [examining the back of the Declaration] So if it's in invisible ink, how do we see it?
- Patrick Gates: Throw it in the oven.
- Abigail Chase, Ben Gates: No!
- Riley Poole: Uh-uh.
- Riley Poole: Do you actually know who the first person to suggest daylight savings was?
- Abigail Chase, Ben Gates: Benjamin Franklin.
- [Riley stomps down his foot in disappointment]
- Ben Gates: Meet me at the car. Call me if you have any problems.
- Riley Poole: Like if we get caught and killed?
- Ben Gates: Yeah - that would be a big problem. Take care of her.
- Riley Poole, Abigail Chase: [together] I will.
- Abigail Chase: You can't *seriously* intend to run chemical tests on the Declaration of Independence... in the back of a moving van!
- Riley Poole: We have a clean room environment all set up: EDS suits, a particulate air filtration system, the whole shebang.
- Abigail Chase: Really?
- Ben Gates: We can't go back there.
- Riley Poole: What? Why not?
- Riley Poole: What do you care? You got the girl.
- Abigail Chase, Ben Gates: That's true.
- [Ben and Abigail kiss]
- Riley Poole: Yeah, rub it in.
- [He turns and walks away]
- Riley Poole: Enjoy your spoils.
