Virgil quotes from Static Shock

F-Stop, you need to brush up on Body Language 101. Hers says, 'Not-in-this-lifetime.'

Oh, My head... Note to self: Avoid playing catch with flying automobiles.

I'm a superhero too--don't tell my Dad.

(reading from a comicbook) ...This was the final showdown. Good vs. evil. Soul Power braced himself. Would his superpowers stand up to... the horrible hats of the Haberdasher. (Talking to his listeners) Uuh hah. Dig that, Soul Power's scared of hats.

What I lack in maturity, I make up for in immaturity.

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

Sharon

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

(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)

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

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...

Good lookin' out, Moms.

Mmm, mmm, mmm. Fluffy egg goodness...

No more asking my dad to borrow his car, dude.

You don't even drive yet, V.

Oh, whatever.

Mutant? Now that's degrading.

You have a better word for it?

I kind of like... meta-human.

What if I turn into some kind of blob?

You're not gonna turn into a blob. Now, primordial ooze, that's another story.

Ok, Mr. Def Comedy Jam.

Your looking pretty health Virgil

Well, I've been going through these ... changes.

Well, that's normal for someone your age.

Trust me, Doc, this is not normal.

Do these changes involve another person?

A lot of them.

Does your father know what you've been doing?

What?! Whoa, Doc, we're talking about two totally different things here.

What's Derek Barnett got that I don't have?

Let's make a list. Looks, height, all-state in track and field - shall I quit while you're behind?

I thought we were tight, Rich.

We are bro, just keeping it real.

Hey, Virgil, do you think you could tutor me?

Me?

Him?

Do you know what hanging with Derek "D.B." Barnett's going to do to my rep?

Uh, start it?

Robert

Proud of you for helping Derek, Virgil.

Pops, when you get touched with genius, you gotta share the gift... Besides thanks to him, I'm finally meeting cheerleaders.

Frieda

What are you doing here?

I... asked you first.
