David Hoflin: Jason Bates

Quotes 

• Jason Bates : Who else could've told her?

  Brett Bates : Yeah, but how do they do it? Do they rap away in her language or in his?

  Jason Bates : Look, I don't know. But until we get some straight answers, we'll just have to live with the fact that she and this whale can actually talk somehow.

  Brett Bates : Wouldn't Mum be cheesed off if she knew? I mean, she's sitting in there with a trillion dollars worth of equipment trying to do the same thing.

  Jason Bates : Yeah, that's why we gotta keep our mouths shut. If they knew, they'd be all over Neri like a rash.

• Commander Jack Lucas : Why didn't you speak up louder, boy?

  Jason Bates : Why didn't you listen?

  Commander Jack Lucas : Perhaps you'd like to explain how you obtained this information ahead of the ORCA sensors?

  Jason Bates : It was... the sea life while I was diving this morning. They were all acting weird.

  Commander Jack Lucas : You're telling me a fish told you?

  Jason Bates : Yes!

• Jason Bates : What are you doing here?

  Neri : Talk.

  Jason Bates : Not while Vanessa's there. You gotta get outta here.

  Neri : Water bad. Go now.

  Jason Bates : Why?

  Neri : Big shake. Wave will come. Go now.

  Jason Bates : What do you mean "shake"? Earthquake?

  Neri : Earthquake, earthshake. Go now!
