Jack Robinson quotes from Jack and the Beanstalk: The Real Story

Jack Robinson

I'm sorry Veedus. Seeds, all I see are seeds.

Ondine

How can you not know the source of your family's wealth?

Jack Robinson

Everything I have is built on the blood and sweat of my ancestors.

Ondine

That is a lie told by your lying, thieving ancestor.

Jack Robinson

As far as I know, I'm telling you the truth. Now if you know something that I don't, I wish you'd just tell me.

Now the first six vertebra were pulverized. There, see it. Massive compound fractures to the posterior cranium. Death was probably caused by deep trauma impact severing the neck and crushing the spinal cord, there.

Jack Robinson

You sure it's not some kind of dinosaur? Maybe you just haven't found the tail yet.

Mr. Robinson, everyone here is highly qualified. What we have found here defies everything we thought we knew about the evolution of humankind for the last hundred thousand years.

Jack Robinson

Don't tell me you think this thing is human, a real giant.

I know it sounds unbelievable, but yes.

Jack Robinson

Siggy, we have a giant skeleton in our closet.

Now death occurred between three to four hundred years ago. It was separated at the torso and each joint by a sharp object. This creature was murdered.

Jack Robinson

You are asking me to believe in a fairytale.

Listen to me. Jack Robinson was a thief. He took what did not belong to him, and he was a murderer. Our family is cursed. All the wealth, all the power, everything we have springs from the greed of your ancestor.

Jack Robinson

I want to believe everything you just told me.

I'm afraid it may be far worse. First it is Jack, his story I told you. Was he telling the whole truth? Hmmmm. I'm afraid not. There must be more.

Our land is dying. Our people are reduced to killing each other. Thanks to you.

Jack Robinson

Are you accusing me of all this?!? What did I do? What is my crime meant to be?

You are meant to have a last meal.

Jack Robinson

I don't want a last anything. Besides it's wasted on me. You should take it and feed your families.

Ondine

I don't know what to say to you Jack. I am... responsible... for your being here. (prison)

Ondine

(Jack turns his back to pick the bean flowers that grew up from Veedus' beans behind him.) Oh Jack, I didn't know it will be this way.

Ondine

(Jack hands her the flowers) Jack, they're real.

Jack Robinson

Now you see, You can smile.

Jack Robinson

You're shaking, Ragnok.

In our land, no one has ever been sentenced to death before.

Jack Robinson

Great.

Ondine

Jack, would you ever betray me?

Jack Robinson

No, never.

Jack Robinson

(horrified by Willomina admitting to killing Thunnderdell) No. It can't be. Willy?

Ondine

You... killed Thunderdell?

Yes. Yes I did. And I encouraged my son to commit those crimes, thinking only of my wealth and position. Now you are going to die, Jack. I can't bear it!

Jack Robinson

Then help us. Help us find the goose and the harp, and the curse will be lifted.

This is true? (Jack nods) Then you must find them.

Ondine

And we have so little time.

Ursan, bring up the Rolls Royce!

Immediately.

I have a plan.

Jack Robinson

I guess no one stood as much to gain as you did, Mr. Chairman.

Siggy

You know. I had thought the hardest part would have been to have your will rewritten, leaving your entire estate to me. But in the end no one even questioned it, because everyone knew you loved me like a father.

Jack Robinson

All those years of meaningful advice, you just didn't want me to have a heir.

Ondine

They are coming, Jack.

Jack Robinson

The Robinson curse, it has the same agenda as you. Only what you don't know is that when I die, all you'll get out of that goose will be scrambled eggs.

Siggy

Even if that is true, I have 20 billion in eggs downstairs. Not as much as I'd like but workable.

Jack Robinson

You're insane.

Siggy

No. I'm just greedy, very greedy. You see greed makes great businessmen, great leaders, great civilizations, great me. I am the greatest giant of them all.

The curse is lifted. You are the first of the Robinsons to know about it, and now I know you won't be the last.

Jack Robinson

I owe you my life. But I don't know where I fit in anymore.

Follow your heart. It will lead you. I haven't slept in 400 years. (closes her eyes and dies)

Ondine

(Walks up behind the bench Jack is sitting on.) Who says they cannot live happily ever after?

Jack Robinson

I'm afraid to turn around, in case you're not really there.

Ondine

There was something I wanted to tell you before you left.

Jack Robinson

I love you.

Ondine

Yes.

Jack Robinson

Yes?

Ondine

Yes. Thats what I wanted to tell you.

Jack Robinson

(grabs Ondine and kisses her) Three months! I thought I would go nuts without you!

Ondine

Three months for you, Six hours for me. You know, I think Maggog only gave me these just so I'd leave him alone. (pulls 2 teleport vials from her jacket pocket) Look, he gave me two extra, for our return. If you'd come with me?
