*I’m not leaving cause I can’t kill you, I’m leaving because I can.*
Agent Stevens: We’ll assign you two of our best agents to help-
Lara Croft: I don’t want them.
Agent Calloway: With all due respect, expertise in archaeology doesn’t qualify you–
Lara Croft: I didn’t say I didn’t need help. But your agents will never get me to Chen Lo in time. I need an insider. Someone who knows the Shay Ling. Their methods, their hideouts. I need Terry Sheridan.
Brice: Lara, these men are from MI5. Lara: Yes, I can see from their pressed suits and soft hands.
BriceL: Would you like tea? Lara: Tea is for guests. The door is for intruders.
Deciding who should jump off first]
Terry Sheridan: All right, you go first.
Lara Croft: No, you go first.
[Thugs shoot at them]
Lara Croft, Terry Sheridan: I’ll go first.
I’m not leaving because I can’t kill you. I’m leaving because I can.
Kosa: Didn’t you ever do anything the easy way?
Lara Croft: I wouldn’t want to disappoint you.
Kosa: Lara! Do you ever do anything the easy way?
Lara Croft: And risk disappointing you?
Lara Croft: Bit rusty, are we?
Terry Sheridan: I think it’s coming back.
Lara Croft: I expected better from a Scot!
Terry Sheridan: I don’t expect anything from an English woman!
Lara Croft: In nature there’s always a balance. The world comes in pairs. Yin and Yang. Right and Wrong. Man and Woman. What’s pleasure without pain. That sort of thing.
Lara Croft: Something wrong?
Gus Petrakis: First Alexander doesn’t record the location. Then God wipes it from the earth with a volcano. Now even the currents change. Did it ever occur to you, Lara, that maybe this temple wasn’t meant to be found.
Lara Croft: Everything lost is meant to be found. Don’t worry.
Lara Croft: You have to take me to the Shay Ling.
Terry Sheridan: They Shay who?
Lara Croft: A man named Chen Lo stole something from me and I want it back
Lara Croft: You have to take me to the Shay Ling.
Terry Sheridan: They Shay who?
Lara Croft: A man named Chen Lo stole something from me and I want it back.
Lara pulls out her gun, points it at Terry]
Terry Sheridan: Normally you hand it to someone butt first.
Lara Croft: I’m sorry I have to do this, Terry. But you’re wasting time.
Terry Sheridan: Go ahead, pull the trigger. To be honest, I’d rather you than them.
[The Shay Ling appear from the mountains]
Nicholas Petrakis: Lara, what do you say to two handsome Greek partners!?
Lara Croft: Well, when you find two, be sure to let me know!
Oh, well now that I have her Majesty’s permission
Running ahead of Terry]
Lara Croft: You know that ‘no gun’ rule? I’ve changed my mind.
Terry Sheridan- you can break my rist but i’m still gonna kiss you [ lara smiles]
Terry Sheridan: Can either of you fly a helicopter?
Bryce: I can.
Terry Sheridan: What?
Hillary: What…?
Bryce: I’ve had 150 hours of flight time on flying simulator computer games.
Terry Sheridan: How bout the real thing?
Bryce: Uh…two.
Terry Sheridan: Two? I hope you have a good memory of those two hours
Terry Sheridan: Fun’s over. It’s all walking from here. Might want to reconsider that ‘no gun’ rule.
Lara Croft: No.
Terry Sheridan: Oh..k.
Terry Sheridan: Just like old times, eh Croft? (Lara laughs) You know, I think that’s the first time you’ve smiled because of me.
Lara Croft: Why’d you do it, Terry.
Terry Sheridan: You know, I got to thinking. I was tired of doing things somebody else’s way. And it was always gonna be somebody else’s way.
Lara Croft: So you abandoned you’re men, you’re country?
Terry Sheridan: Leaving my men and my country didn’t bother me as much as I thought. Leaving you was what did. You’re a hard act to follow Croft. You know why you and I get along so well?
Lara Croft: [Laughs] No.
Terry Sheridan: We’re two of a kind, you and me.
Lara Croft: [Laughs harder] We’re nothing alike.
Terry Sheridan: I don’t think we’re alike. We’re a pair. Opposite sides of the same coin
Terry Sheridan: Tell me something, Croft. Where do I fit in?
Lara Croft: What do you mean? You’re my guide.
Terry Sheridan: That’s not what I meant. When you think back on the vast scheme of your incredibly adventurous life, where do I fit in? Was I a bump in the road? The love of your life? Was it time well spent? Four months, Lara. Was it more good than bad?
Terry Sheridan: The Shay Ling are Ghosts, Croft. They move constantly, their home base is the most remote region of mountains in China.
Lara Croft: Region? Oh…you’ll have to do a lot better than that.
Terry Sheridan: Get me into China–I’ll get you to them in a day.
Lara Croft: Until then…no guns, no money, no weapons of any kind.
Terry Sheridan: Talk about taking all the fun out of life.
Terry Sheridan: The Shay Ling will be in Louyang. But they have spies all over China, so we have to get into the country undetected. If we slip into Beijing, we can go by truck.
Lara Croft: Truck? I was thinking something a tad faster…
Terry Sheridan: Were you really going to shoot me?
Chen Lo: [Approaching] Oh, I bet she would have.
Terry Sheridan: You okay?
Lara Croft: Never been better.
Terry Sheridan: Looks like they got away.
Lara Croft: [Pulls out a tracing receiver] Not really. I put a tracer on the helicopter.
Terry Sheridan: I’m impressed.
Lara Croft: I don’t go leaping into thin air for nothing.
Terry Sheridan: You wanted me to find the Shay Ling. The only way we can get into their place is as their prisoners, okay?
Lara Croft: You might have told me that little gem before.
Terry: Well, this wasn’t what I had in mind, but, alright!
[Bryce and Hillary getting made over by tribes people]
Hillary: Lara, are you all right?
Lara Croft: [Smiling] Yes…it’s touching.
Bryce: You know us. Always making friends, sharing a laugh…
Lara Croft: Getting married…
Hillary: What?
Kosa: This is a wedding ceremony and you are the grooms…
[Lara pulls out a key]
Terry Sheridan: Key to your heart?
[Upon hearing word that the queen insists Lara retrieves the orb]
Lara Croft: Well, now that I have her majesty’s permission…
[Walking up a hill]
Terry Sheridan: Would you stop looking at my ass.
