Daniela: Luca! Where have you been? Luca: Uh…. [thinking] Don’t say surface. Don’t say surface. Surface. [covers his mouth with his hands] Daniela: What did you just say?! Lorenzo: What's wrong with your foot? Daniela: Luca. [Luca stops his nightmare] Gonna tell us where you were? Luca: Uh…. Grandma: It’s my fault. I sent him to look for sea cucumbers. Luca: Right.

Alberto: [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?

Luca: [at the island; asks what the markings on the wall mean] Alberto? What are those marks on the wall? Tell me what they mean. Alberto: [sighs] I started when my dad left. Luca: You were living here alone for that many days? Alberto: [sniffles] I just stopped counting after a while. He said I was old enough to be on my own. I just thought that… [sighs] …maybe he’d change his mind. Honestly, though, I get it. He’s better off without me. You are, too. Luca: That’s not true. Alberto: Yes, it is. You’re not like me. You’re the good kid. [begins to cry] And I’m just the kid that ruins everything. Luca: Silenzio, bruno. That’s just the dumb voice in your head. You taught me that. And getting a Vespa? Seeing the world… Alberto: JUST LET IT GO! OKAY?! Look, you and I should have never been friends in the first place! Luca: Don’t say that. Alberto? Alberto: GET OUTTA HERE (NOW!)
