- Epps: You mean, what's a nice girl like me doing in a dump like this, instead of raising a family? Simple. I own a third of Murphy's operation, I'm not that nice, and these monkeys... are my family.
- Murphy: These Italian liners, ya know, they couldn't compete for speed, so they built these floating art palaces instead.
- Epps: Wanna hear something funnier? We just found a bunch of dead guys floating in the laundry room.
- Murphy: I do know one thing. I've seen strange things happen in the strait. But I know something else. Sea gives you an opportunity, you take it.
- Greer: Earlier, when I was doing my recon, I could swear I heard a women's voice singing to me. It was like she was, like she was coming on to me or something.
- Munder: Oh, no.
- Greer: It was the sexiest voice I ever heard, man.
- Santos: She got any backup singers?
- Munder: Brother, whatever you're on, get me some!
- Dodge: I think maybe you're not quite ready to get married, Greer.
- Ferriman: Katie told you, didn't she? You see, souls without sin can't be marked. Makes them tough to control. As long as I keep the boat afloat, we'll all go down together.
- Epps: What the fuck are you?
- Ferriman: A salvager. Just like you. You collect ships, I collect souls. And when I fill my quota, I send a boat load home. This will make management happy. You see, it's a job, given to me after a lifetime of sin. So if I lose this ship, management won't be happy, which is not a good thing.
- Ferriman: [Epps is still about to blow up the ship] I don't seem to be getting through to you. What I'm asking for is an exchange. This ship for your life.
- Epps: I want my crew back.
- Ferriman: Sorry. Once a passenger's marked they're mine.
- Epps: Then I guess it's over.
- Greer: Francesca, I know all of this isn't real. So I'm just gonna go with it, okay? Can't cheat on your fiancée with a dead girl, right?
- Santos: Because of the plan, I'm trapped on this dreamboat of yours. So, you know what? You're coming along for the ride!
- [first lines]
- Greer: I can't hold her much longer, Murph. Port bow is heeling. She's taking on way too much water.
- Dodge: Can I tell you something else? When we get back, I'm gonna take my money and I'm gonna buy you a bathtub.
- Epps: You know her, Murphy?
- Murphy: Only in my dreams. Christ, she's beautiful. These Italian liners, you know, they couldn't compete for speed, so they built these floating art palaces instead. She was reported missing on the 21st May 1962 off the coast of Labrador. Funny thing is, there was no distress signal, no contact. She just disappeared. She was gone. So ever since that day every captain and his mother has been looking for her, hoping she hasn't gone down. Do you know what this means?
- Ferriman: What?
- Murphy: It means under the law of the sea, she's ours. Let's not keep a lady waiting, guys.
