[Peter is fighting a group of boys as Susan and Lucy watch on. Edmund pushes past Susan to join in the fight.]
Lucy: [Seeing Edmund going to help Peter fight the boys] Edmund!
[Peter and Edmund fight the boys. Two soldiers arrive and break up the fight.]
Soldier: [To Peter] Act your age!
Peter: It's only a matter of time. Miraz's men and war machines are on their way. That means those same men aren't protecting his castle.
Reepicheep: What do you propose we do, Your Majesty?
Peter: We need to get ready for it.
Caspian: To start planning for–
Peter: Our only hope is to strike them before they strike us.
Caspian: But that's crazy. No one has ever taken that castle.
Peter: There's always a first time.
Trumpkin: We'll have the element of surprise.
Caspian: But we have the advantage here!
Susan: If we dig in, we could probably hold them off indefinitely. [Peter looks at her disappointedly]
Trufflehunter: I, for one, feel safer underground.
Peter: Look, I appreciate what you've done here, but this isn't a fortress, it's a tomb.
Edmund: Yes, and if they're smart, the Telmarines will just wait and starve us out.
Squirrel: We could collect nuts. [Reepicheep looks at him and raises an eyebrow]
Reepicheep: Yes– [Everyone looks at him; the squirrel looks happy, until Reepicheep speaks, gesturing his arms on the words throw and Telmarines] –and throw them at the Telmarines. Shut up! I think you know where I stand, sire.
Peter: [To Glenstorm] If I can get your troops in, can you handle the guards?
Glenstorm: Or die trying, my liege.
Lucy: That's what I'm worried about.
Peter: Sorry?
Lucy: Well, you're all acting like there's only two options: dying here or dying there.
Peter: I'm not sure you've really been listening, Lu.
Lucy: No, you're not listening. Or have you forgotten who really defeated the White Witch, Peter?
Peter: I think we've waited for Aslan long enough.
Reepicheep: Choose your last words carefully, Telmarine.
Caspian: You are a mouse.
Reepicheep: [Sighs] I was hoping for something a little more original. Pick up your sword.
Caspian: Uhh... no, thanks.
Reepicheep: Pick it up! I will not fight an unarmed man.
Caspian: Which is why I might live longer if I choose not to cross blades with you, noble mouse.
Reepicheep: I said I would not fight you. I didn't say I'd let you live!
Lucy: Why didn't you jump in and save us, like last time?
Aslan: Things never happen the same way twice, dear one.
Peter: What is it?
Edmund: [staring upwards] Where do you suppose we are?
Peter: Where do you think?!
Edmund: Well, I don't remember any ruins in Narnia. [they all stare up at the ruins on the cliff]
Lucy: [wandering around the ruins] Wonder who lived here?
Susan: [she picks up an old chess piece made of gold] I think we did.
Edmund: Hey, that's mine - from my chess set!
Peter: Which chess set?
Edmund: Well, I didn't exactly have a solid gold chess set in Finchley, did I?
Lucy Pevensie: It's so still.
Trumpkin: They're trees. What do you expect?
Lucy Pevensie: They used to dance.
Trumpkin: Wasn't long after you left that the Telmarines invaded. Those that survived retreated to the woods. And the trees... they retreat so deep into themselves that they haven't been heard from since.
Caspian: I wish we had more time together.
Susan Pevensie: We never would have worked, anyway.
Caspian: Why not?
Susan Pevensie: Well, I am 1300 years older than you.
Lucy Pevensie: I wish you'd all stop trying to act like grown-ups. I didn't think I saw him, I did see him.
Trumpkin: I am a grown-up.
Peter Pevensie: Prince Caspian?
Prince Caspian: Yes. And who are you?
Susan Pevensie: Peter!
Prince Caspian: High King Peter?
Peter Pevensie: I believe you called.
Prince Caspian: Well, yes. But I thought you'd be... older.
Peter Pevensie: Well if you like, we can come back in a few years.
Prince Caspian: No! No, it's alright! You're just not exactly what I expected.
Edmund Pevensie: Neither are you...
Telmarine Soldier: You're a... mouse.
Reepicheep: [annoyed and bored] You people have NO imagination! [He attacks the Telmarine Soldier]
Edmund Pevensie: [looking down a cliff over the water] Is there a way down?
Trumpkin: Yes. Falling.
Prince Caspian: You could have called it off, there was still time.
Peter Pevensie: No, there wasn't, thanks to you. If you had kept to the plan those soldiers might be alive now.
Prince Caspian: And if you had just stayed here as I suggested, they definitely would be!
Peter Pevensie: You called us, remember?
Prince Caspian: My first mistake.
Peter Pevensie: No. Your first mistake was thinking you could lead these people.
Prince Caspian: HEY! I am not the one who abandoned Narnia.
Peter Pevensie: You invaded Narnia. You have no more right to lead than Miraz does! You, him, your father! Narnia's better off without the lot of you!
