00:01:36 Lieutenant! Good morning.
00:03:20 What I'm trying to figure out is...
00:05:08 This famous scientist researched the legend...
00:08:02 America and the Soviets can never catch up.
00:12:34 I don't suggest you quit.
00:14:55 Oh, my. What are you laughing at, sir?
00:23:34 It's our only chance. Now come on.

00:32:11 And in addition to Kong...
00:34:39 Kong can resist it better than anything. He cannot stand it forever, though.
