Quotes 

• [last lines] 

  Julia Kurtz : [about the dragon]  I think we should just package it up and send it back to the museum in China if that's where it's been stolen from.

  Reggie McDowell : But didn't we agree to send it to the police in Berlin?

  Julia Kurtz : Yes, but we don't know if it's actually been stolen.

  Vince Frasca : I wonder how much it's worth.

  Reggie McDowell : Well, an awful lot if some creep's prepared to go halfway around the world for it.

  Vince Frasca : How much do you reckon? A thousand bucks, maybe? A million?

  [holds the dragon] 

  Reggie McDowell : Uh, maybe you shouldn't be touching it. We wouldn't want to wreck it.

  Vince Frasca : Hey, I'm not the one who took a giant chunk out of its head.

  Reggie McDowell : I did happen to mention it!

  Vince Frasca : [sarcastically]  Here's your million-dollar artifact opened. By the way, sorry about its head, but don't worry, nobody will notice I used invisible glue.

  Reggie McDowell : Ha-ha! Well, we won't say that, will we? We'll say it's been broken in transit or something.

  Vince Frasca : I wonder if there'll be a reward.

  Jake Konrad : I hate to poop the party, but I think you better take a look at this.

  [hands Reggie, Julia, and Vince piece a piece of paper each] 

  Jake Konrad : I emailed the museum in China. Made up some fake inquiry about the dragon, just to see if it's really stolen.

  Reggie McDowell : Well, we know it's been stolen. We have it.

  Jake Konrad : No, you don't. It's in Boston, part of a traveling exhibition.

  Reggie McDowell : Well, obviously, it's been stolen from Boston.

  Jake Konrad : And I contacted Boston.

  [hands them another piece of paper] 

  Reggie McDowell : They have a fake?

  Vince Frasca : Reggie, think about it. If it's in a traveling exhibition, then it'd be guarded 24 hours a day. The security would be so tight.

  Julia Kurtz : Vince is right.

  Reggie McDowell : Well, why would someone go to so much trouble for a fake? There has to be something valuable about this thing.

  Jake Konrad : I reckon we should tell Mom about it.

  Reggie McDowell : Tell her what, exactly? We don't know anything.

  Julia Kurtz : You're right. Let's send it back to the police in Berlin and let them sort it out. It's giving me the creeps.

  Jake Konrad : We can't. It's Friday. It won't leave the country until Monday.

  Vince Frasca : So we hang onto it for now and send it Monday.

  Reggie McDowell : Well, gives us some time to find out what's so precious about this ugly little sucker.
