Daniela
Luca! Where have you been?
Luca
Uh…. [thinking] Don’t say surface. Don’t say surface. Surface. [covers his mouth with his hands]
Daniela
What did you just say?!
Lorenzo
What's wrong with your foot?
Daniela
[Luca looks down, one of his feet is still human and screams in horror]
Luca. [Luca stops his nightmare] Gonna tell us where you were?
Luca
Uh….
Grandma
It’s my fault. I sent him to look for sea cucumbers.
Luca
Right. Sorry, Grandma, I couldn’t find them.
Daniela Paguro
Mom, his life is maybe a little more important than your snacks.
Luca
[Gramdma shrugs]
Thank you.
Alberto
[The scene transitions. Luca with Alberto watches into a wall.]
This will be a breeze. Just don’t get wet. [He starts to his march past]
Luca
Uh…
Luca
[Luca strides to follow him he stares at two fishermen were walking]
Actually, this town seems a little crowded.
Alberto
Hey! Silenzio, bruno. What’s wrong with you, stupido?
Fisherman #1
Huh?
Fisherman #2
[scoffs]
Luca
Huh! It worked.
Alberto
See? You just gotta follow my lead. [As he marches again]
Alberto
[over his growing jealousy of Luca spending more time with Giulia and Luca possibly going to school with her]
Uh, Giulia, your school, does it take all kinds of people? I mean, what if some of them were not human?
Luca
Alberto…
Alberto
What if some were-- Oh, I don’t know, sea monsters?
Giulia
Sea monsters?
Alberto
I doubt your school would even accept sea monsters, right?
Luca
[laughs nervously; angrily]
Ah, that’s a weird joke, Alberto.
Alberto
Yeah, I know. It’s kinda hard to imagine. So, let me just show you! [dives in the water]
Luca
No!
Giulia
[to Alberto]
Come on.
Luca
Giulia, wait!
Giulia
We don’t have time to goof around. Huh? AAAAHH! :[Alberto, now in sea monster form, rises out of the water, looking silhouetted with the sunset in a crouched, intimidating position; whimpers in fear] Help! Don’t hurt us!
Alberto
See? I knew this would...
Luca
[pointing at Alberto]
SEA MONSTER! [Alberto gasps with a heartbroken and betrayed expression]
Luca
[at the island; asks what the markings on the wall mean]
Alberto? What are those marks on the wall? Tell me what they mean.
Alberto
[sighs]
I started when my dad left.
Luca
You were living here alone for that many days?
Alberto
[sniffles]
I just stopped counting after a while. He said I was old enough to be on my own. I just thought that… [sighs] …maybe he’d change his mind. Honestly, though, I get it. He’s better off without me. You are, too.
Luca
That’s not true.
Alberto
Yes, it is. You’re not like me. You’re the good kid. [begins to cry] And I’m just the kid that ruins everything.
Luca
Silenzio, bruno. That’s just the dumb voice in your head. You taught me that. And getting a Vespa? Seeing the world…
Alberto
JUST LET IT GO! OKAY?! Look, you and I should have never been friends in the first place!
Luca
Don’t say that. Alberto?
Alberto
GET OUTTA HERE (NOW!) I’M NOT GOING TO TELL YOU AGAIN!
Luca
Okay, I’ll go. I’ll go win the race.
Alberto
What?
Luca
Yeah. Yeah! And then the Vespa will be ours! And we’ll ride away together!
Alberto
Luca, that’s crazy.
Luca
Well, maybe I’m crazy. TAKE ME GRAVITY!!!! [jumps off the tower]
Alberto
Luca! But what are you doing?!
Luca
I’m okay. I’ll be back tomorrow. I’m gonna fix this!
Luca
I can't do it without you.
Alberto
But you're never without me. The next time that you jump off the cliff, or tell bruno to quit bothering you, that's me.
Luca
But how am I going to know you're okay?
Alberto
[hugs him]
You got me off the island, Luca. I'm okay.
