Credence
I'm sorry, Ma...
Mary Lou
I am not your mother! Your mother was a wicked, unnatural woman!

Customer
Where do you get your ideas from, Mr. Kowalski?
Jacob
I don't know. I don't know. [chuckles] They just come.
Customs Official
British?
Newt
Yes.
Customs Official
First trip to New York?
Newt
Yes.
Customs Official
Anything edible in there?
Newt
No. [unconsciously passes a hand over his breast pocket]
Customs Official
Livestock?
Newt
[A latch on Newt's suitcase pops open, the Customs Official looks down curiously]
Must get that fixed. Um...No.
Customs Official
Let me take a look. [Newt moves a latch on his suitcase that switches it to "Muggle Worthy. The Customs Official opens the suitcase and we see it contains his clothes] Welcome to New York.
Newt
Thank you.
Gellert Grindelwald
[scornfully, as he is being led away by the Aurors]
Do you think you can hold me?
Seraphina Picquery
We'll do our best, Mr. Grindelwald.
Gnarlack
So you're the guy with the case full of monsters, huh?
Newt
News travels fast.
Jacob
[about to lose his memory]
Hey. This is for the best. Yeah. I-I was...I was never even supposed to be here. I was never supposed to know...a-any of this. Everybody knows Newt only kept me around because...Hey, Newt, why did you keep me around?
Newt
Because I like you. Because you're my friend. And I'll never forget how you helped me, Jacob.
Jacob
[referring to Credence]
Can someone please tell me what this Obscural...Obscurius thing is? Please?
Tina
There hasn't been one for centuries.
Newt
I met one in Sudan three months ago. There used to be more of them, but they still exist. It was before wizards went underground, when we were still being hunted by Muggles. Young wizards and witches sometimes tried to suppress their magic to avoid persecution. So instead of learning to harness or control their powers, they developed what was called an Obscurus.
Tina
It's an unstable, uncontrollable dark force that busts out and attacks, and then vanishes. Obscurials can't survive long, can they?
Newt
There's no documented case of an Obscurial surviving past the age of ten. The one I met in Africa was eight when she...she was eight when she died.
Jacob
What are you telling me here? That Senator Shaw was killed by a...a kid?
Jacob
[standing at the apparently empty bar]
How does a guy get a drink in this joint?
Bartender
[A bottle pops off the shelf and flies into his hand] [behind the bar]
What? Ain't you ever seen a house-elf before?
Jacob
[covering]
Oh, no, no of course I have. I love house-elves. My uncle's a house elf.
Bartender
[scoffs]
Yeah...
Jacob
Did...Did you say school? Is there a school? A wizardry school here in, uh, America?
Queenie
Of course. Ilvermorny. It's only the best wizard school in the whole world.
Newt
I think you'll find the best wizarding school in the world is Hogwarts.
Queenie
Hogwash!
Jacob
Mr. Scamander?
Newt
Oh, call me Newt.
Jacob
Newt, I don't think I'm dreaming.
Newt
What gave it away?
Jacob
I ain't got the brains to make this up.
Jacob
Sorry, Mr. Gnarlack... [punches Gnarlack in the face, knocking him to the floor] Reminds me of my foreman!
Jacob
What, you're not gonna Obliviate me?
Queenie
Of course not. You're one of us now.
Mary Lou
Are you a seeker? A seeker after truth?
Newt
I'm more of a chaser, really.
Newt
[as he is strapping body protection on to Jacob in order to protect him while distracting the Erumpent]
Now there's absolutely nothing for you to worry about.
Jacob
Tell me, has anyone ever believed you when you told them not to worry?
Newt
Well, my philosophy is that worrying means you suffer twice.
Newt
[hands Jacob a helmet, preparing him to distract the Erumpent who he's trying to get back in his case]
Put this on.
Jacob
But why would I have to wear something like this?
Newt
Because your skull is susceptible to breakage under immense force.
