Lewis McCartney quotes from H2O: Just Add Water

Lewis

Any mermaid in that pool when the full passes over tonight, loses her powers. Forever. So how did you find out?

That's how my grandmother lost her powers. Tonight is the first time in the fifty years when all the planets have aligned with the moon. When you warned me about the strength of this full moon, it all made sense.

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.

Lewis

You been a mermaid since you were nine?

Bella

We were living in Ireland at the time. My parents were working, so I took off to the coast. And I found this sea cave, and I went into a pool and... (Demonstrates her different mermaid abilities by turning the water into jelly)

Lewis

Wow.

Rikki

So when my bike still had training wheels, you had a tail.

Bella

When did you guys change?

Rikki

Oh, we been mermaids for ages.

Lewis

Do that again.

Cleo

Lewis, What do you think of Rikki?

Lewis

You know those stone fish that look kind of look like a rock, yet can shoot out enough poison to kill entire football team in half a second? She kind of reminds me one of those she kind of reminds me of one of those.

Lewis

Rikki, can I sit?

Rikki

I certainly hope so, just not with me. [pushes the magazine she was reading on to a seat]'

Rikki

What makes you think there's anything wrong?

Lewis

Well, I've asked her to go to Miriam's party likea hundred times and every time she's changed her mind.

Rikki

Maybe she doesn't like you. Did you think about that?.

Lewis

Yes, actually that did cross my mind. But then I thought: Oh no, no, she hangs round with you so her standards must be pretty low.

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.
