Antonio: (walking over with a smile) Looks like you've got some help there, Sylvie.

Sylvie: (grinning) Hey, Antonio. Yeah, Officer Julie here is assisting with some important paperwork.

Julie: (looking up at Antonio) Hi, I'm Julie. Mom talks about you sometimes.

Antonio: (crouching down to Julie's level) Hi, Julie. It's nice to finally meet you. Your mom has told me a lot about you too.

Julie: (curious) Really? What did she say?

Sylvie: (teasingly) Oh, you know, just that you're the smartest and most talented kid in the universe.

Julie: (giggles) Mom, stop it.

Antonio: Well, I'm inclined to agree with her. It's clear you've got a lot of potential.

Julie: Thanks, Antonio. So, what do you do here?

Antonio: I work with your mom sometimes. We're part of a team that helps solve cases and keep the city safe.

Julie: Like a superhero team?

Sylvie: (chuckles) Sort of, but without the capes.

Antonio: (playfully) Though sometimes we wish we had capes, right, Sylvie?

Sylvie: (laughs) Definitely.

Julie: That's really cool. Mom's a superhero too.

Antonio: She absolutely is.

Sylvie: (blushing) Okay, okay, let's not get carried away.

Antonio: You two seem like quite the team too.

Sylvie: (smiling at Julie) Yeah, we're a team, just like I told you.

Julie: Can Antonio join our team?

Sylvie: (raising an eyebrow at Antonio) Well, Antonio, are you up for the challenge of joining our team?

Antonio: (grinning) Absolutely, Officer Julie. I'd be honored to join your team.

Julie: (happy) Yay! Our team just got even better.

Sylvie: I couldn't agree more.

Antonio: Well, as an official team member now, I should probably get back to work. But it was great meeting you, Julie.

Julie: You too, Antonio. Maybe we can all have lunch together sometime?

Sylvie: (looking at Antonio) What do you say, partner? Lunch with the team?

Antonio: Lunch sounds like a fantastic idea. I'm in.

Julie: Awesome! See you both later then.

Antonio: Take care, Officer Julie.

Sylvie: Let's get back to work, partner. But first, thanks for being a part of our little team moment.

Antonio: (smiling) Anytime, Sylvie. We make a pretty good team, don't we?

Sylvie: Yes, we definitely do.
