* During the scene with the tiger shark, we get this little gem from one of the fisherman:
--> '''Fisherman''': Well what kind? What kind of shark?
--> '''Hooper''': Tiger shark!
--> '''Fisherman''': A ''what''?
** For the last line, it's not so much the quote itself but the tone in which he says it.
*** It's also weird, in that these are people who have heard of the mako shark (they mention it earlier in the scene when trying to identify the species, but mispronounce it as "ma-KOW" rather than "MAY-ko") but have never heard of the much better-known tiger shark.
*** To be fair, the tiger shark doesn't normally range much further north than Virginia, while the mako extends to Nova Scotia. Still, the tiger shark is hard to misidentify.
* Also, as the journalist is trying to get the fishermen to pose for a picture, Quint can be seen cruising on by in the ''Orca'' snickering whilst tipping his hat slightly. Obviously he can tell that they've got the wrong shark!

(Note that Brody's glass still has some whiskey and ice in the bottom when he fills it.

** To be fair, Hooper did actually hold up two fingers as a way to tell Brody to stop filling his glass. Clearly, neither of them wanted too much, anyway. [[INeedAFreakingDrink Brody, on the other hand...]]

* As he and Dernherder are waiting for something to take the shark bait, Charlie asks if they can go home.

He probably says the most ''logical'' thing anyone could say after experiencing such fright:
--> '''Charlie''': Can we go home now?

** Creator/RichardDreyfuss was 27 when the film was released, which isn't beyond college age depending on what degree is being pursued, especially in the sciences. Most Ph.D students don't finish their degrees until their late-20s, and even that can be prolonged depending on the research. Also, compared to Shaw and Scheider, he was relatively young. It is true, however, that this was a case of casting not matching the script as the script was adjusted for Dreyfuss. And people can start to go grey in even their late teens.
** Quint's treatment of Hooper, in particular, seems to have more to do with white collar vs. blue collar conflict than age. When Quint pejoratively refers to Hooper as a college boy, the implication is that Hooper has led a sheltered life, in contrast to the hard knocks that Quint has experienced. He then takes Hooper down a peg and reveals that just because he isn't as educated as Hooper doesn't mean he's stupid.

** To be fair, Hooper did actually hold up two fingers as a way to tell Brody to stop filling his glass. Clearly, neither of them wanted too much, anyway. [[INeedAFreakingDrink Brody, on the other hand...]]
** And it's the red wine, even though they're having fish. And, considering Hooper's wealth and pained reaction, it was probably a pretty good vintage.
