T-Rex: So we live on a planet that is mostly water.

T-Rex: And the oceans that most of this water is stored in are mostly unexplored!

T-Rex: And that means that YES, while we have exhaustively searched for monsters and wonderful beasts on land and found none of them that we had not already caused to go extinct, THERE IS STILL HOPE IN THE SEAS. There is a non-zero chance that sea monsters are REAL, Dromiceiomimus!

Utahraptor: I mean, if they're giant, you'd think we'd have spotted them by now.
T-Rex: Not if they live at the very bottom!

Utahraptor: True... but then they'd be adapted for high-pressure life and couldn't be brought to the surface without dying and gooping all over the place. So either way, we're safe.
T-Rex: I'm not into them because they're a threat! I'm into them because UNDERWATER DRAGONS MIGHT LIVE ON EARTH.

T-Rex: And also I could befriend one and give it a pressure suit so it could live on the surface and I could ride him around having adventures!

T-Rex: NON-ZERO CHANCE, UTAHRAPTOR, YOU WILL NOT TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME
