[Father Cornelius confides in a bartender.]
Priest
Vito Cornelius: I know she's made to be strong, but she's also so fragile, so
human. Do you understand what I'm saying?
[Robot bartender shakes its head.]
[Demonstrating
a weapon.]
Zorg: Voila: the ZF-1. It's light. Handle's adjustable for easy
carrying; good for righties and lefties. Breaks down into 4 parts, undetectable
by x-ray; ideal for quick, discreet interventions. A word on firepower. Three
thousand round clip with bursts of 3 to 300. With the Replay button (another Zorg
invention) it's even easier. One shot, and Replay sends every following shot to
the same location. And to finish the job, all the Zorg oldies but goldies. Rocket
launcher. Arrow launcher, with explodin' and poisonous gas heads. Very practical.
Our famous net launcher. The ALWAYS efficient flame-thrower. My favorite. And
for the Grand Finale, the all new "Ice Cube System!"
Zorg:
Look at my fingers: four stones, four crates. Zero stones? ZERO CRATES!
DJ
Ruby Rhod: WHat the hell are you screamin' for? Every thirty seconds there's a
bomb or somethin'! I'm leavin! bzzzz!
Priest
Vito Cornelius: You're a monster, Zorg.
Zorg: I know.
Mr.
Kim: You got a message.
Korben Dallas: Yeah?
Mr. Kim: You're not going
to open it? It might be important.
Korben Dallas: Yeah, like the last two
I got were important. The first one was from my wife, telling me she was leaving.
The second was from my lawyer, telling me he was leaving...-with my wife.
Priest
Vito Cornelius: What are you doing?
Korben Dallas: Trying to save your ass
so you can save the world.
Zorg:
Life, which you so nobly serve, comes from destruction, disorder, and chaos.
Leeloo:
Leeloo Dallas mul-ti-pass. Mul-ti-pass.
Korben Dallas: Yeah, this is my wife,
Leelo.
Leeloo: Mul-ti-pass.
Korben Dallas: Newlywed, just married.
Leeloo:
Mul-ti-pass.
Korben Dallas: Yes, she knows it's a multipass! Anyways, we're
in love.
[Father
Cornelius and Ruby Rhod see the bomb stuck to the door]
Priest Vito Cornelius:
It's a - it's a - it's a - it's a - it's a - it's a -
DJ Ruby Rhod: No no
no no no no. If it were a bomb, wouldn't we be hearing the alarms? All these hotels
have bomb detectors.
[The alarms sound]
Zorg:
This case is empty.
Priest Vito Cornelius: What?
Zorg: Empty. The opposite
of full. This case is supposed to be full!
Aknot: You asked for a case. We
brought you a case.
Zorg: A case with four stones in it! What the hell am
I supposed to do with an empty case?
Aknot: We are warriors, not merchants.
Zorg: But you can still count!
General
Munro: The Mondoshawans never fully trusted the human race.
Leeloo:
Everything you create, you use to destroy.
Korben Dallas: Yeah, we call it
human nature.
David:
Father, are you sure she's a supreme being?
Police:
Are you classified as human?
Korben Dallas: Negative, I am a meat popsicle.
DJ
Ruby Rhod: Quiver ladies, quiver!
DJ
Ruby Rhod: What was that honey? It was bad! It had no fire, no energy, no nothing!
So tomorrow from 5 to 7 will you PLEASE act like you have more than a two word
vocabulary! It must be green!
Korben Dallas: Can I talk to you for a second?
[Throws Ruby up against a wall]
Korben Dallas: I didn't come here to play
poom-bow on the radio. So tomorrow from 5 to 7 your gonna give yourself a hand,
green?
DJ Ruby Rhod: Supergreen.
DJ
Ruby Rhod: We'll find out everything there is to know about the D man: his dreams,
his desires, his most intimates of intimates, and from what I'm looking at, "intimate"
is the stud muffin's middle name! So tell me my man, are you nervous in the service?
Korben Dallas: Mmm... not really.
Korben
Dallas: I only speak two languages - English and bad English.
Korben
Dallas: Whoa,lady, I only speak two languages, English and bad English.
[Leeloo
continues to talk in divine language]
Korben Dallas: Now, don't get me wrong,
I'm all for conversation, but maybe you could just shut up for a moment?!
Leeloo:
Me fifth element - supreme being. Me protect you.
Leeloo:
I do not know love. I was trained to protect, not to love.
Priest
Vito Cornelius: Evil begets evil. Shooting it only makes it stronger.
DJ
Ruby Rhod: And now we enter what must the most beautiful concert hall of all the
universe! A perfect replica of the old opera house! ...But who cares?
Thai:
You got a message.
Korben Dallas: Yeah
Thai: You're not gonna open it?
It might be important.
Korben Dallas: Yeah, like the last two I got were important.
The first one was from my wife, telling me she was leaving. The second was from
my lawyer, telling me he was leaving... with my wife.
Thai: Ah, that's bad
luck. Grandfather say it not rain everyday. This is good news, guaranteed. I bet
your lunch.
Korben Dallas: Okay, you're on.
Thai: Come on...
[Reads.]
Thai: You are fired. Oh.
Korben Dallas: Well, at least I won lunch.
Thai:
Good philosophy, see good in bad, I like.
[Korben
shows up at Father Cornelius' door with an unconscious Leeloo in his arms.]
Priest
Vito Cornelius: Yes?
Korben Dallas: I'm, uh, looking for a priest.
Priest
Vito Cornelius: Weddings are one floor down, my son. Congratulations.
Korben
Dallas: Whats your name?
Leeloo: Leeloo Minai Lekarariba-Laminai-Tchai Ekbat
De Sebat.
Korben Dallas: Good. That... that whole thing's your name, huh?
Do you have, uh... a shorter name?
Leeloo: Leeloo.
[Zorg
is choking on a cherry.]
Priest Vito Cornelius: Where's the robot to pat you
on the back? Or the engineer? Or the children, maybe? There, you see now, how
all your so-called power counts for absolutely nothing now, how your entire empire
can come crashing down because of one... little... cherry.
[Dallas
shoots the negotiator]
Korben Dallas: Anyone else want to negotiate?
Leeloo:
Hello.
Korben Dallas: Oh, so you speak English now.
Leeloo: Yes. I learned.
General
Munro: [after telling Korben about the mission] Any questions?
Korben Dallas:
Yeah. Just one. Why me? I retired six months ago. You remember?
General Munro:
Three reasons. One - as a member of the elite special forces unit of the Federated
Army, you are expert in the use of all major weapons & space craft needed
for this mission. Two - of all the members of your unit, you were the most highly
decorated.
Korben Dallas: ...and the third one?
General Munro: Of all
the members of your unit, you're the only one left alive.
Zorg:
Honor's killed millions of people. Hasn't saved a single one.
Priest
Vito Cornelius: The 'he' is a 'she'!
Korben Dallas: You noticed that, huh?
The
President: Staedert, I'm having doubts.
General Staedert: I'm not.
