The Road to El Dorado quotes

Page 2 of 8

Well, it's, um, uh, nice.

Chief

Nice?

Yes, nice. But? Um, but, uh, is it really fit for the gods?

Chief

My lord.

[chuckling]

I have been around boats, believe me, and that, um, the pointy, tall, um, the long up and down thing.

Chief

The mast?

The mast, yes, yes. The mast is good. Well, look at it. [stammering] There's not nearly enough, uh, um, rope.

Chief

Rope?

Yes, rope. Exactly my point. Vertical ascension requires a lot more, uh, rope.

Chief

My lord. [chuckling]

And look at this. [grunting, tapping on the bloat, clears his throat] This doesn't look at all secure. Chief, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, but in all, it is a complete do-over. [continues looking down]

Chief

Hmm. You know, Lord Miguel, if you wish to stay, you only need to say so.

You mean, forever?

Chief

Of course.

[looks at a cave]

Oh, no, I can't. I have to go back with Tulio. We're... We're partners.

Chief

Big plans in the other world, huh?

Yep. Big plans.

Chief

Well, then, I better go get some more rope, huh?

Oh, Chief, um, forget about the rope. Um, my mistake.

Chief

Hey, to err is human.
[Miguel looks at Chief, stepping in a boat, walking up the building]

Native

Chief Tanni! Chief Tanni! Approaching the city, is an army of strangers. [Chief: We are safe here. They'll never find the gate to the city.] But, sire, they are being led by Tzekel-Kan.

The Cook

Hey, Altivo! Ah-ta-ta, not for you! You're on half rations. Orders from Cortes.

[sighs]

Well, it was nice working with you, partner.

Tulio, I just want you to know... I'm sorry about that girl in Barcelona.

Sor-- you-- you…

All right. In the dead of night, you and I grab some provisions, hijack one of those... longboats... and then, we... row back to Spain like there's no manana!

[Pause]

Back to Spain, yeah?

Yeah.

[uncertainly]

In... a rowboat.

Yeah!

[sarcastically]

Great. Sensational. And that's your plan, is it?

That's... pretty much it.

[delighted]

Well, I like it! So, how do we get on deck?

[pause]

In the dead of night, you and I grab some provisions, hijack one of those... longboats...

Apparently El Dorado is native for... great big ROCK!

Tulio, you don't think, Cortes could've gotten here before us and, and…

And what? Taken all the really big rocks? The scoundrel!

Back mortal, before we strike you with a lightning bolt!

[calmly]

Save it for the High Priest, honey, you're gonna need it.

The little voice, remember? Remember the little voice? Well, just for a moment, imagine that you have one. Now, what would it be saying about Chel?

Uuuuum... [purrs]

[off-screen]

Half?

Mm-hmm.

[laughing]

I don't think so. I... I'll tell you what. Uh, I'll let you come back to Spain with us, like you wanted, and, um, yeah, I can see my way clear to throwing you, mmm, ten percent?

[chuckling]

You know, maybe I won't go to Spain with you and take a third. [grabs a plate]

Ohh! Like you don't wanna go to Spain.

Oh, like you don't want me to want to go to Spain.

I want you to want...

Mm-hmm?

...what you want.

Mm-hmm. Go on.

All right. Cards on the table. Uh, I want you to come to Spain with me and Miguel. Mostly me. Especially me. Only me. Forget Miguel.

Well, as long as that's what you want. Me too.

Okay. Deal?

[drops the plate]

Deal. [kisses Tulio]

[Altivo walks to Miguel, gasping]

"Forget Miguel"? [sniffling] Well, forget Tulio. [walks down by Altivo]
