[espresso machine whirs, hisses]
TYLER- Holy crap! Do you make a habit of scaring the heck out of people? (AN-SORRY IM USING HECK CUZ I KNOW SOME KIDS MIGHT BE READING THIS)
WEDNESDAY- It's more of a hobby.
TYLER- [REALIZING] You go to Nevermore...Didn't realize they changed the uniform.
WEDNESDAY- Whatever I need a quad over ice. It's an emergency. [TYLER LOOKING CONFUSED] It's four shots of espresso.
TYLER- Yeah, I... I know what a quad is, but, spoiler alert, the espresso machine's having a seizure, so all we have is drip.
WEDNESDAY- But drip is for people who hate themselves and know their lives have no real purpose or meaning...What's wrong with your machine?
TYLER- It's a temperamental beast with a mind of its own, and it doesn't help that the instructions are in Italian.
WEDNESDAY- [Looks at the instruction book] I need a tri-wing screwdriver and a four-millimeter Allen wrench.
TYLER- Wait, you read Italian?
WEDNESDAY- Of course. It's the native tongue of Machiavelli. Here's the deal. I'm going to fix your coffee machine, then you're going to make my coffee and call a taxi.
TYLER- Uh, no taxis in Jericho. Try Uber?
WEDNESDAY- I don't have a phone. I refuse to be a slave to technology.
TYLER- Then you're out of luck. Where are you going anyway?
WEDNESDAY- That's on a need-to-know basis. What about trains?
TYLER- The nearest station is Burlington. It's half an hour away.
WEDNESDAY- You have a valve issue. I've seen it before.
TYLER- Where? Do you have one of these monsters at home?
WEDNESDAY- Steam-powered guillotine. I built it when I was ten. I wanted to decapitate my dolls more efficiently.
TYLER- Sure. Grim Reaper Barbie makes perfect sense.
[steam vents, subsides]
TYLER- Wow. Thanks. I never met a Nevermore kid who got their hands dirty. I'm Tyler, by the way. I didn't catch your name, or is that on a need-to-know basis too?
WEDNESDAY- Wednesday.
TYLER- Tell you what, Wednesday To show my appreciation, how about I drive you to Burlington?
WEDNESDAY- Perfect. Put that quad in a to-go cup.
TYLER- Uh, but I don't get off for another hour.
WEDNESDAY- I'll sweeten the pot.
TYLER- Twenty whole dollars... Tempting, but no.
WEDNESDAY- I'll make it 40.
TYLER- Uh...Listen, Wednesday, one fun fact about me... I can't be bought, so either wait, or find someone else to drive you.
[exhales softly]
BOY 2 -What happened?
BOY 1- Hey, boys, check it out.
BOY 3- Who's that? Bro...
BOY 1 -Come on.
boy 1- What's a Nevermore freak doing out in the wild?
BOY 2 This is our booth.
WEDNESDAY- Why are you dressed like religious fanatics?
BOY 2 - We're pilgrims.
WEDNESDAY- Potato, po-tah-to.
BOY 2 - We work at Pilgrim World.
WEDNESDAY- It takes a special kind of stupid to devote an entire theme park to zealots responsible for mass genocide.
BOY 1- My dad owns Pilgrim World. Who you calling stupid?
WEDNESDAY- If the buckled shoe fits.
TYLER- Guys, back off.
BOY 1- Stay out of this, Galpin.
WEDNESDAY- Yes, stay out of this.
BOY 1- So tell me, freak... Have you ever been with a normie?
WEDNESDAY- I've never found one that could handle me. [STRES AT THE BOY] Boo!
Hey!
[boy grunts]
[bone cracks]
[boys grunting]
[patrons chattering]
[coughing]
TYLER-So where'd you learn those kung fu moves?
WEDNESDAY- My uncle taught me. He spent five years in a Tibetan Monastery.
TYLER- Was he a monk?
WEDNESDAY- Prisoner.
TYLER- Dad!
SHERIFF- Tyler, what the heck's going on in here?
TYLER- They were harassing a customer, and she put them in their place.
SHERIFF-This little thing took down three boys? Did you help her?
TYLER- Dad, I swear, I wasn't involved.
WEEMS- Apologies, Sheriff. This one slipped away from me. Come on, Miss Addams, time to go.
SHERIFF- Wait a minute, hang on. You're an Addams? Don't tell me Gomez Addams is your father? That man belongs behind bars for murder. Guessin' the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. I'm gonna keep my eye on you.
WEDNESDAY- Okay.
[door opens, closes]
WEEMS- Your first day and you're already on Sheriff Galpin's radar.
WEDNESDAY- Wish I could say I was surprised. What did he mean about my father?
WEEMS- I have no idea, but a word of advice. Stop making enemies and start making a few friends. You're going to need them.
WEEMS- Looks like an accident. I hope the driver's okay.
WEDNESDAY- He's dead.
[siren wailing]
Broke his neck.
How can you tell from this angle?
