Hannibal Chau Quotes in Pacific Rim (2013)

[Newt enters Hannibal Chau's secret lab, where workers are busy dissecting and examining Kaiju body parts. He is astonished by the amount of kaiju parts in perfect condition]

Dr. Newton Geiszler: Oh, my God! Oh, my God, this place is heaven! That's a - that's a lymph gland from a Category 2! And, and, and what you working on here? Is this a cuticle? In mint condition? Is that a Kaiju skin parasite? I - I've never seen them alive before. They - they usually *die* as soon as the Kaiju falls! I thought you *couldn't* keep them alive!

Hannibal Chau: You can if you soak them in ammonia.

[Newt turns around and sees Hannibal. Hannibal approaches him]

Hannibal Chau: What do you want?

Dr. Newton Geiszler: I'm looking for Hannibal Chau. I was told he was here.

Hannibal Chau: [stops] Who wants to know?

Dr. Newton Geiszler: I really can't say.

[Hannibal pulls his golden balisong and sticks the tip up Newt's right nostril]

Dr. Newton Geiszler: Ahh! Ahh! Stacker Pentecost sent me!

[Hannibal pulls balisong off Newt's nostril]

Dr. Newton Geiszler: Ahh! Ahh! Oh, that's great! That's real great! So I take it you're - you're Hannibal Chau, right?

Hannibal Chau: You like the name? I took it from, uh, my favorite historical character and my second-favorite Szechuan restaurant in Brooklyn. Now tell me what you want, before I gut ya like a pig and feed you to the skin louse!

Hannibal Chau: His lungs weren't fully formed. Umbilical cord tied around his neck. No way he could survive outside the womb for more than a minute. One look, that's all I needed. I knew he wouldn't make it.

[Hannibal throws his golden balisong into the baby Kaiju's head and pulls it out]

Hannibal Chau: Ugly bastard. Anyway, I woulda...

[the baby Kaiju rises and eats him before finally dying]

[last lines]

Hannibal Chau: Where is my goddamn shoe?

Dr. Newton Geiszler: I need to access a Kaiju brain. Completely intact.

Hannibal Chau: No, no, no. The skull plate is so dense that by the time you drill into it...

Dr. Newton Geiszler: The brain's rotted away. But I'm talking about the secondary brain. Now we both know that the Kaiju are so large they need two brains to move around, like a dinosaur. I want to get my hands on that.

Hannibal Chau: Mm. What the hell do you want a secondary brain for, anyway? I mean, every part of the Kaiju sells. Cartilage, spleen, liver. Even the crap! One cubic meter of crap has enough phosphorus in it to fertilize a whole field!

Hannibal Chau: Are you funnin' me, son?
