Static Shock, Season 1

[Sharon has made breakfast, her rendition of scrambled eggs, however, does not sit well with Virgil, as her attempt is nothing but an under-cooked, runny slop.]

Virgil:
(sitting at the table) What's this, an egg smoothie?

Sharon:
(not amused) You know that's just the way Momma made them.

Virgil:
(studying his 'breakfast' with his fork) Funny, I don't remember needing a straw to eat her's.

Robert:
(closes his briefcase and stands up, ready to go to work) Come on Virgil, your sister went to all this trouble. Least you can do is give 'em a try. (pats Virgil on the head and leaves)

[Sharon huffs and turns away. Virgil, desperate not to be food poisoned, looks 'up' for divine intervention.]

Virgil:
(voice a tone lower) Momma, if you're listening, I could use some help here...

[The phone rings unexpectedly.]

Sharon:
(answering the phone) Hello... (listens to the person on the other end of the line,) Hey, Teddy... (pause) Yeah, I really liked that lecture last night... (pause) Tonight? You mean a real date?... (pause, meanwhile, Virgil stands next to her making kissie-noises while she's on the phone) Let me check my schedule... (pause while Sharon leaves the kitchen to gain privacy from Virgil) Of course I have a schedule... (pause, before she answers Teddy flirtatiously) No, I don't have a little black book. It's paisley...

[With Sharon out of the way, Virgil, with a smile on his face, is free to dispose of the 'egg smoothie,' pouring it into the bin, without Sharon as an eyewitness.]

Virgil:
Good lookin' out, Moms.

[Virgil exits the kitchen, rubbing his stomach in mock-satisfaction as he passes Sharon, still on the phone.]

Virgil:
Mmm, mmm, mmm. Fluffy egg goodness...

[Sharon, knowing that Virgil is poking fun at her cooking, pouts in frustration.]
