Wow...
Brill, stay. [closes and locks the car door] Ruby Gillman, come out here, we need to get you home right now.
Oh, honey, you're not a monster. Not even close. [Ruby looks at her mom, silence] I don't want to yell. Can we just talk? Please, just... [sighs] Just talk to me. [Ruby extends a hand to the ground. Agatha hops on Ruby's hand and Ruby lifts her so she is face-to-face with her mom.] Hey, there's my girl.
Please don't be mad. I should have listened to you, but I kind of...
Went into the ocean.
I know. But right now, I just want to keep you safe, honey, and that means getting you home.
Mom, look at me... [crying] I won't even fit inside our house anymore!
Hey, hey, hey. Shh. You'll get small again. It just takes a little time. I'm here. I'll wait with you. I'm not going anywhere.
Do you remember when you found that whale on the beach?
How could I forget Clarence J. Whifferton? You stood next to him with a hose for 7 hours until the tide came back in.
Oh, yeah. [sniffles] I asked you if I could keep him.
Where would we even have put him?
We had a hose. A garage. Come on. I would have taken care of him.
I know you would have.
Yes. I'm normal. Well, almost. Thank you. [Agatha hugs her]
Trust me, it's gonna be okay.
Aw.
