- Jonny Quest: Hey, I don't think he IS a kid.
- Hadji: He is very small.
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: He's as tall as he'll ever be. He's a pygmy. Cut him loose, Jonny.
- Jonny Quest: Hey, come back! Hey!
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: No use. He's gone. We'd better do the same and fast. Whoever put that fella out for cat food might come back, and we better not be here then.
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: Hold still, Hadji. He won't hurt you. It's our friend who was put out for cat food.
- Hadji: Boy. He has me worried when I saw that knife.
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: Helicopters! That's what chased our little friends off!
- Hadji: But they're a long way off. They could miss seeing us.
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: Yeah, you're right. If we only had something to signal with. Hadji, lend me that ruby of yours.
- Hadji: You can have anything I have, but why my ruby?
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: We're gonna try to attract their attention.
- [last lines]
- Dr. Benton C. Quest: Say, um, why were you coming to see me, anyway? I would've been back in a few days.
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: Well, this came in the mail. It looked important.
- Dr. Benton C. Quest: Mmm. Yes, it does look important.
- Dr. Benton C. Quest: [reading the letter] Oh, no!
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: Bad news, Doctor?
- Dr. Benton C. Quest: [chuckling] Anything but, Race. It's a form letter from the African Geographical Society asking me if I would be interested in participating in a round table discussion on the following subject... Are you ready?
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: FIre away, Doctor.
- Dr. Benton C. Quest: "Are pygmies warm and friendly people - yes or no."
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: Pygmies "friendly?"
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon, Jonny Quest, Hadji: NOOOO!
- Bandit: Arf! Arf! Arf!
- Dr. Benton C. Quest: [laughing] I think I'll send all of you and let you argue the no side. You'll win hands down.
- Sacrificial Native: [rescued from a panther] Loka tarusa. Loka tarusa.
- Jonny Quest: That must mean thank you.
- Jonny Quest: Race, do you really think they'll track us?
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: I'm sure of it, Jonny. Take a look down by the river. There's your answer.
- Jonny Quest: Gosh, it didn't take 'em long.
- Pygmy Chief: [at the river] Gohta komsi. Komsi gohta!
- Hadji: Look! They sniff the ground like dogs.
- Roger T. 'Race' Bannon: They're the best trackers in the world, Hadji.
