Is everything a competition with you?
I'm not sure what you're talking about.
I just found you a secret lab full of really cool Ancient stuff. I kind of think that should score me some points here.
OK, I admint I might have been a bit of brusque with you up until now.
Just a little...
But the truth is, I really didn't think you're gonna find anything.
Well, that much I actually understand.
You do?
Yeah. I... spent the majority of my professional life being ridiculed for my theories - most of which turned out to be correct, by the way - I'm kinda used to it, Rodney.
Wasn't that bothering you? That there's no indication or recognition of credit?
No, I could say the same thing about you. The discoveries you've made yet probably could've won the Nobel prize five times over by now.
That's too true. So, guess none of us signed up to be famous, huh?
No, we did it for the money!
Hehehe, good one! Heh heh... [resumes working then pauses again] You mean, you don't get paid more than I do, do you? [Jackson sighs] Do you?!
