The Amazing O'Malley's: Julia & Danny scene

INT. LOFT - AFTERNOON

Julia is doing homework when the fire escape window opens and Danny sneaks through.

JULIA

Daniel, Daniel, Daniel.

DANNY

(Busted)

What? What? What?

JULIA

Is that how I taught you to sneak into the loft?

DANNY

No. But someone spilled salsa on the Cloak of Invisibility and it’s still at the cleaners. I hate taco night.

JULIA

And you call yourself a wizard. Let’s see... you could have transformed yourself into a pizza and had someone deliver you.

DANNY

Jordan did that once and Dad almost ate him.

JULIA

Right. That was funny.

DANNY

Hilarious. (Puppy Dog) You’re not going to tell on your favorite brother...are you?

JULIA

Hmmmm...yes. Yes, I am.

DANNY

C’mon, Julia. Tell on me and when I become the Grand Wizard of this family, I’ll turn you into a bat.

JULIA

Daniel, you so remind me of a young me. A cocky little wizard who thought I could own the world.

DANNY

You’re still a cocky wizard who thinks she can own the world.

JULIA

Yeah. I know. Plus, I’m cuter than you.

DANNY

I can put lip gloss and eye liner on a ham and make it cute.

JULIA

Big talk from a boy who’s about to be in really big trouble.

DANNY

Alright. What’s it gonna take to keep your blow hole shut.

JULIA

Tell me where you were.

DANNY

Done.

JULIA

And give me your express written consent to blog about it. You’ve become quite the internet sensation ever since I posted that video of you dancing in your underwear to Justin Timberlake.

DANNY

(Defensive)

It helps me unwind after a tough day at school.. okay. I was climbing rocks in Central Park with the guys. But on my way home I fell into a manhole and was elected President of the mole people.

JULIA

I don’t think so. I’m gonna go with: You were at a Knick game.

Julia performs a signature hand motion and he suddenly has Knick stuff, foam finger, pennant, jersey and such.

JULIA (cont’d)

Looks like you did to me. (Calling out) Dad!

DANNY

Sleep with one eye open Julia. I’ll be the invisible one sneaking up on you that smells a little like salsa.
