Emma Gilbert quotes from H2O: Just Add Water

Emma

But Miss Chatham was really clear. We gave away our powers.

Lewis

Only for twelve hours.

Rikki

What do you mean?

Lewis

I... It's temporary. During a lunar eclipse the moon pool draws away your powers for twelve hours.

Emma

She didn't say that.

Lewis

She did to me. She said that if you guys believed that your powers were gone forever, so too would Dr. Denman. It's funny 'cause she told me not to tell you.

Lewis

What's up?

Lewis

Come on! You can't do this! Where's your sense of humor?!

Emma

Next time, he better remember who his friends are.

Rikki

Leave him up there for a couple of hours.

Lewis

No, no, no, no! Don't you listen to her, Cleo!

Cleo

Yeah, No one messes with mermaids.

Emma

You swam like a turtle! What kept you?

Rikki

A few more seconds and I would've had you!

Emma

[Laughing] Please! I beat you easy!

Cleo

I'm starting a protest! You guys cut me off!

Rikki

Cleo, you were so far behind me I forgot you were even there!

Cleo

Winning isn't everything, you know!

Rikki

And that is why you're third! [To Emma] I'll beat you on the way back!

Emma

You'll try!

Rikki

[to Lewis] It's important, Lewis. Check on us.

Emma

In case something happens.

Lewis

[seems distracted] Yes. Yes. I am hearing you.

Rikki

[to Lewis] We're gonna go upstairs and have a pillow fight in our jim jams. Wanna come?

Lewis

[distracted] Mhmm. Mhmmm. Sure. Sounds interesting.

Rikki

[throws her hands up in the air] Hopeless!

Rikki

Stop worrying! Last time Zane saw me I was perfectly normal!

Emma

And the time before that we were mermaids! He's not gonna forget that!

Rikki

Then we'll just have to keep clear of water around him, same as we do with everyone!

Emma

Zane is not everyone! If he wants something he doesn't give up. Like...

Rikki

Like what?

Emma

Like you, for instance! What's he gonna do when he finds out we're mermaids? Are you sure you can trust him?

Rikki

Emma, I don't have to trust him! We broke up, that's where it's at!

Emma

I just thought it might be hard seeing him round again.

Rikki

Well, it won't be. If Cleo can handle breaking up with Lewis, I can handle keeping clear of Mr Self-Absorbed! Ok?

Rikki

Show off.

Cleo

I thought we were coming here to relax.

Emma

You can relax at my place, for the whole weekend. My parents are going away

Cleo

Where to?

Emma

A crystal-ware convention. My mum collects figurines.

Rikki

You know the worst part about that is that I'm not even surprised.

Emma

Well, how about it?

Cleo

I can't stay over. Dad's working, and I have to look after Kim. What about you, Rikki?

Rikki

A sleepover in my jim-jams, you're kidding, right?

Emma

Yeah, it's not really Rikki's scene.

Rikki

Then again, you've got cable, wide-screen TV, hot and cold running snacks. Why not? I'll be there.

Cleo

Excellent, all fixed. What?

Emma

Rikki was so right about Charlotte! She's way out of line!

Cleo

Out of line!? She's just really mean!!

What's happening!? Where is she!?

Rikki

Don't get all steamed up.

Emma

We're here to cool you down. (Cleo hydrokinetically creates an orb of water, Emma freezes it and Cleo hurls it at Charlotte who uses her own mermaid abilities to throw it right back)

Did you really think you could beat me? (Uses her strengthened hydrokinetic abilities to conjure three water snakes. Cleo attempts to push them back, Rikki boils them, Emma partially freezes them)

Lewis

Don't mess with magic, Charlotte. It could get out of control.

Rikki

Zane Bennett's a pig. Anything I can do to get under his skin can't be a bad thing, can it? Cleo” cool thanks Rikki” Rikki” do you know my name “ Cleo” yeah well I’ve seen you around school since you arrived oh I mean I’ve meant to say hello and everything” Rikki” hold on” Zane”agh” Both” yeah!”

Cleo

Hey Emma, want a ride?

Emma

Are you licensed?

Rikki

Are you my mother?

Emma

Are we chilled out yet?

Rikki

So, we're floating, it's not like we're sinking. Emma not yet. Rikki I think we’re out of fuel feel like paddling to that island Emma mako island forget it CleoNo one goes there it’s divided by sharks and reefs and mangroves Rikki well it’s always got Cleo how are we ever going to get back home Emma Good question cleo ask your friend. Rikki don’t put this on me. EmmaOh it was someone else’s fault someone else took this thing miles off shore you too are lucky I’ve got this

Cleo

Emma's always really prepared.

Rikki

I'm so happy for her.

Rikki

Well you came down.

Emma

You were meant to stay up top and throw down a rope or something.

Rikki

What am I, a mindreader, and what rope?

Rikki

About 10 seconds after we touch water we... we grow these...

Cleo

...and it vanishes when we're dry. And that's the same with you two right? The tails are like...

Emma

...exactly like...

Rikki

We look like mermaids.

Emma

Our secret. Our responsibility. Whatever happens we're in this. together.

Rikki

That doesn't mean we're married, does it?

Emma

[laughs] Now that was actually

Emma

Nice board.

Cleo

Nice pecs.

Rikki

Nice attitude.

Rikki

This probably goes without saying, but if you tell, we maim you.

Lewis McCartney

I'm not that stupid. If anybody found out, you'd end up as science experiments.

Emma

I quit the swim team today.

Cleo Sertori

Oh Emma, I know how much that means to you.

Emma

Still, what could I do?

Cleo Sertori

This whole thing is just out of control. It's just too big.

Lewis McCartney

Let me get this straight. [points his hands to Emma] You freeze things, [points his hands to Cleo] you explode things [points his hands to Rikki] you boil things, and you all grow tails. It's just too bizarre.

Emma

Bizarre? Yep. Still sometimes it's good, and sometimes it's not so good.

Cleo Sertori

It's...[pause]... It's...[pause]...I don't have a word for it.

Rikki

I do, three of them. Totally, absolutely, awesome.
