Alberto:
[to Giulia, 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! [he jumps in the water]

Giulia:
[to Alberto] Come on. We don’t have time to goof around. [Alberto, now in sea monster form, rises out of the water, looking silhouetted with the sunset in a crouched, intimidating position. Giulia whimpers in fear] Don’t hurt us!

Alberto:
[to Luca] See? I knew this would happen…

Luca:
[pointing at Alberto] SEA MONSTER! [Alberto gasps with a heartbroken and betrayed expression]
