TOBY (OFFSCREEN): Hi, I'm Toby.
I'm just a regular student.
Well, I was before I got zapped.
Now I'm some kind of a science genius.
The only problem is Elizabeth is, too.
[theme music]
[laughing]
-Don't worry, Russ.
Just throw it.
Let the laser do the rest.
--And the girls will come running.
-Yeah, maybe.
Don't get your hopes up.
This will make you look good.
That's all.
-Hey, anything's an improvement, right?
-I guess.
It'll got wherever you point the laser.
You ready?
[beep]
-You bet.
[whirring]
-It's brilliant, Tobes.
[whirring]
TOBY (OFFSCREEN): Russ, watch it.
[bonk]
-Oh!
Sorry!
Are you OK?
I was just playing around with my mates.
I really didn't mean--
-Yeah.
-OK, I'll show you one more time.
-Look at that.
-Unreal.
Whoever invented that's going to make a million.
-My thoughts exactly.
-Check out Toby and Russ.
-Uh, pathetic.
Some people will do anything to be noticed.
-Looks like it's working.
[heavy breath]
-Let's go, Verity.
We're out of here.
-But I--I haven't finished my coffee yet.
-Leave it.
I need you for testing.
[whirring]
-See, it's easy.
If you want to impress some girls, you have to
concentrate, Russ.
Just keep your eye on where you want it to go.
RUSSELL (OFFSCREEN): Yeah, yeah.
My turn now, Tobes.
I want--
-Just a sec.
Trick is, don't get distracted.
-Hey, Toby.
-Nikki, hi.
[bam]
-Ah!
TOBY (OFFSCREEN): Nikki, uh--
[laughing]
TOBY (OFFSCREEN): Are you OK?
-Uh, I think so.
TOBY (OFFSCREEN): I'm sorry.
It's--
-Uh, wind conditions.
-Yeah, wind conditions.
Let me help you up.
JACK (OFFSCREEN): This is cool.
How does it work?
-Um, it's nothing special really.
It's all in the wrist.
-I'm sorry.
NIKKI (OFFSCREEN): No, it's OK.
I've been swept off my feet before, but this is a new one.
[chuckling]
-Well, we better go.
Come on, Russ.
-But wha-- what about the--
I'll see ya.
SACHA (OFFSCREEN): Nikki gave you a wave?
What sort of wave?
-I don't know, a wave.
-A "see you" wave or a "I think you're cute" wave?
-Girls talk in waves?
[laughing]
[knock]
TOBY (OFFSCREEN): Who's that?
-It's Jack.
-Uh, quick!
Try and hide some of this stuff.
Jack, what are you doing?
-Just thought I'd drop by.
-Really?
Since when do you just drop by?
-You guys forgot your towels at the beach.
I thought I'd do the right thing and bring them around.
-Thanks.
Anything else?
-OK, you got me.
That's not why I'm really here.
Nikki's been talking about you.
-Really?
Yeah, OK.
Uh, you might as well come in.
Come in.
-Jack.
-Hey, Russ, Sach.
Cool place, away from the house.
You could do whatever you want out here.
-Jack's just dropped by, you know, to, uh, talk.
So if you guys don't mind--
-You know what you're doing, Tobes?
-Yeah, it's fine, no probs.
Just go, OK?
-Catch ya around.
[door squeaking]
-So, you were saying--
-Huh?
-About Nikki.
-Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
She likes you.
-Yeah?
Right.
That's, uh, that's cool.
JACK (OFFSCREEN): Toby, I know you like my sister.
You can't hide anything from me now.
-Uh--
[click]
[beeping]
-Yeah, well.
You know, she's nice.
JACK (OFFSCREEN): Yeah, she is.
She's a busy girl, with her swimming career and
everything.
[whir].
[clicking].
JACK (OFFSCREEN): Look, I'm just checking you out, doing
the big brother thing.
[beeping]
-You all right?
-Yeah, I'm fine.
Uh, well, thanks for telling me about Nikki.
I'll catch you at school tomorrow, eh?
-Yeah, sure.
See ya.
It's been interesting, Toby.
TOBY (OFFSCREEN): Hah.
[students conversing]
-All done.
Hand.
-Huh?
Oh.
Maybe we should think of some other way of testing stuff.
You know, like, not on me.
-But you're so good at it, Verity.
Don't worry.
I'm sure it's nothing dangerous, much.
[scream].
-Relax, it's not gone.
-What was that stuff?
-Invisibility gel.
It bends the light around an object so you can see through
to what's behind.
Like it?
-No.
Why are you making invisibility gel?
-Well, sometimes I want to go unnoticed.
I know it comes naturally to you, but it's harder for me.
And it'll be the perfect way to keep an eye on Toby.
-You mean you're gonna spy?
Um, can I get my hand back now?
-Lucky for you, it washes off in water.
[sigh]
-Mr. Bernard, Jack Bailey.
You'd remember me from the Surf Cafe.
You don't?
Well, it was a few weeks ago.
So how's the toy business these days?
Good.
Well, you said to call in regard to any opportunities.
And I wanted to--
yeah-- no, I'm bringing you the
opportunity, a flying disc.
Mr. Bernard, trust me.
This is a [inaudible] money.
VERITY (OFFSCREEN): There they are.
What do you want me to do?
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): Nothing.
Just keep my clothes and stay out of the way.
-Ah!
-You know, maybe I've had Jack all wrong.
-Pff.
I don't trust him.
He was sneaking around your bungalow.
-Oh, come on.
He was just looking out for Nikki.
JACK (OFFSCREEN): Hey, Toby.
Good news.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
Nikki was just talking about you again.
-She was?
I mean, she was?
Interesting.
-She's not doing anything later.
You should come around.
-I'll think about it.
-But she did say--
yeah, forget it.
You're not interested.
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): Jack's up to something.
I'll stay close and find out.
You keep out of the way.
-I'm only here to help, OK?
-Are you all right?
-Huh?
Yeah, I'm just talking to--
-The wall.
[chuckle]
-So, uh, what did Nikki say exactly?
-Look, I think I can help you out, but you're going to have
to trust me.
And who knows, you just might end up with a date.
-Yeah, OK.
I'm in.
[sigh]
-It's your clothes.
-What?
-She likes a guy with style.
[keys jingling]
-Here.
I was gonna wear this out tonight, but I
want you to have it.
Put it on.
-Whoa!
This must be worth heaps.
-Yeah, you can have it I'll loan.
Only for the day, OK?
It's still new, so be careful.
Don't ruin it.
-Whoa!
It feels good.
-OK, now all you have to do is ask her out.
She wants to say yes.
-Hey.
Wow, you look great.
-Thanks.
You know, I was thinking, uh, we should go
out somewhere together.
Are you free later?
-Yeah, yeah.
Y--yeah, I am.
-Great.
[smack]
-Ow!
-A-- are you OK?
-Uh, yeah.
I'm fine.
I think something bit me.
-Oh.
Oh, so where are we going?
-Where?
-Mmm.
-Um, um, it's a surprise, OK?
-Ah, OK.
I'll see you later then.
-Jack!
JACK (OFFSCREEN): Well?
-She said yes.
-Ah, good!
S--so where are you gonna go?
-Mmm, that's problem.
I don't have much cash at the moment.
Maybe we could just hang out at my place.
-No, no, no.
Bad call.
OK, uh, what if I close the cafe early and put on a
romantic meal?
Just the two of you.
-You'd do that?
Cool.
-Problem solved.
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): Come on, Verity, we've got a date.
-Too easy.
-Sorry, folks, closing early today.
-Quick!
He's coming.
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): Just leave the clothes
there and get out.
JACK (OFFSCREEN): Time to go, Verity.
Closing up.
-Yeah.
I was just on my way out.
JACK (OFFSCREEN): Didn't I hear Elizabeth with you?
-No.
I mean, she left.
I mean, wh--
who?
[chuckling]
-Hey.
Sorry I'm a little late.
-Oh, it's cool.
You look great, by the way.
-Thanks.
So do you.
So what's this great surprise?
Where are we going?
-Um, well--
-Well, hello.
Come in.
Madame, monsieur, table for two.
-Uh, here.
-Was all this your idea?
-Uh, well, yeah, it was, mostly.
I thought you'd want to do something, you know, stylish.
-Right, at my parent's cafe with my
brother as head waiter.
-Right--
[chuckle]
--maybe we should just hang out at the beach?
-No, no.
It-- it's great.
You've obviously gone to a lot of trouble.
I like that.
[chuckle]
-Here we go.
[fwoom]
-Ah!
Oh.
-Um, are you OK?
-Yeah.
Hah, I'm fine.
It's--
JACK (OFFSCREEN): Chocolat for the lady and lime with two
scoops of malt for the gentlemen.
Enjoy.
-He's so dorky.
-A little.
-You know, a lot of people--
[swish]
--misunderstand Jack.
Sometimes he comes on a little--
-Smooth?
-Yeah.
-But he's--he's not really like that.
[swish]
-Mom and Dad couldn't keep this place going without him.
-I guess--
well, I suppose there's a lot more to Jack than people see.
[swish]
-What about me?
What do you see in-- in me?
-Ah, well--
to tell you the truth--
-Guys!
I've just forgotten some stuff and have to get down to the
supermarket, but I shouldn't be too long.
Most of the food is ready, and, um, I think you guys
could go it alone for a while, right?
-Oh, right.
Yeah.
We'll-- we'll be fine.
[exhale]
-OK, see you later.
-Oh, hey.
Jack, wait.
Uh, listen, I just wanted to say thanks.
-Hey, glad to help.
I told you.
You can trust me.
-Hah.
-Mr. Bernard, how you doing?
Yes, sir.
It's all on, sir.
I'll have the merchandise for you in an hour.
At the school?
No, believe me.
This is not a waste of your time.
Trust me.
[beep]
TOBY (OFFSCREEN): Hey, this isn't fair.
You're doing everything.
-Aw, I've got experience at this.
So you just relax.
-Well, is there anything I can do to help?
-You could pour me a drink.
-Done.
-Oh, and could you grab me the big knife?
-Yep.
-A-ha.
Ah, one big knife.
Anything else?
-Um, yeah, the drink.
-Coming right up.
-Here we are.
Now, you take this to the table.
And I'll grab some plates.
-Good.
-Ah!
Oh, no.
I'm sorry, I--
-It's-- it's OK.
-It's not.
I totally ruined it.
-Um, I'll--
I'll grab another top.
Why don't you just sit down and--
and finish your milkshake.
-Check.
I'll try not to touch anything.
[beeping]
[ringing]
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): Garth, this is not a
good time to call.
-Elizabeth, Jack's been snooping around Toby's.
He's got--
-Hi, Elizabeth.
Don't try and hide.
I know it's you.
[phone beeping]
-Elizabeth?
-And I know you're the one that's been doing everything.
Huh?
Invisibility.
Very funny.
But it's not going to work.
I'm staying.
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): Yeah, well, so am I.
You're stuck with me.
And you'll have no idea where I am.
I could be right next to you.
-Keep away from me.
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): Make me.
Give up, Toby.
This is gonna be the worst date you've ever had.
-No, no, OK?
You want to make me look like a fool in front of Nikki, do
your worst.
Matter of fact, why don't I do mine?
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): Where are you going?
-Let's get right to the big guns.
Tomato sauce, huh?
There.
I beat you to it.
Well, are ya happy?
I'm a mess.
What else have you got?
-Hah.
Mustard?
-But I-- hah.
It's a--
it's not what it looks like.
Uh, are you sure about this?
-Uh, yes!
Now get out here.
Hm, it needs something.
I know.
Tomato sauce?
[chuckle]
-How do you feel about cheeseburgers?
I mean, for eating, not for wearing.
-Uh, um--
look, I'm sorry.
I--
I guess that was pretty weird.
-I--
I understand.
-You do?
-You felt bad about ruining my top, so you wanted to make it
even, right?
-Yeah.
Yeah, right.
-I never really liked the new look anyway.
This is more you.
Wait here.
I'll get the burgers.
[beep]
[whirring]
-Haha.
-It's over, Elizabeth.
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): Really?
-Yeah, so why don't you just disappear?
[phone ringing]
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): What Scott?
I'm busy.
Stay right there.
-Got to go, huh?
What a pity.
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): It's Jack's.
He's got that disc think you made.
He's using it on the school grounds.
Our secret's gonna be out, Toby.
-What?
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): Come on!
-Two cheeseburgers with extra special--
[sigh]
-Nice wheels.
Wouldn't mind having one of these myself one day.
-You wish.
So what's this great gadget you have for me?
-The chance of a lifetime.
Your toy company is gonna make an obscene amount of money,
Mr. Bernard.
-Sounds great.
-Every kid on the planet is gonna want this.
-Look, not interested.
-It might not look like much, but you're going to be amazed
at what it can do.
-Jack, I think you have something of mine.
-Who is this?
-No one, ignore him.
-Look, if you don't even have the rights to the device, then
we can't do business.
-Wait, watch.
-Jack, no.
[whirring]
[plop]
-Uh, just let me try that one more time.
[whirring]
[plop]
[clank]
-No!
Wait!
I--
I can fix it.
-Just forget about it.
If I wanted to see kids play with toys, I'd hang out at one
of my stores.
JACK (OFFSCREEN): Mr. Bernard, it works.
You've got to belive me.
I swear it works!
-Elizabeth?
[breathing heavily]
-How did you do that, Toby?
-Well, it's pretty obvious, Jack.
You're a shocking throw.
Oh, and one more thing.
Remind me to never listen to a work you say again.
ELIZABETH (INVISIBLE): Going to thank me, Toby?
-Ahh.
Nice catch, Elizabeth.
Now, please, back off.
You're freaking me out.
Nikki, wait.
I'm sorry I ran out.
I had an emergency.
-Oh yeah?
What kind?
-Uh, let's just say my luck's been running the
wrong way all day.
-Look.
Toby, you're nice.
Weird, which is OK, but sometimes a little too weird.
-That's true.
But you know what?
I think that's why you find me interesting.
-Well, dating you can be
[stuttering]
---unpredictable.
[chuckling]
-Unpredictable.
I'll settle for that.
Can I walk you home?
-Sure.
[thunder]
-Uh oh, rain.
-Oop, quick!
Come on!
-Verity, shut up and listen!
I'm stuck outside the cafe.
Bring an umbrella and a coat, fast, fast!
