[Christmas music playing on radio]

Thad...

I said no toys at Grandfather's.

- But it's Christmas.
- [sighs]

- Stop it!
- [Mr. Sivana] Hey.

Hey, Dad!

[shouts] Hey! Thad,

you can't go crying to other people
all the time.

A man needs to know
when to stand up for himself.

Dear Magic-Isn't-Real Ball,

will Thad ever be a man?

- [scoffs]
- [shakes Magic 8 Ball]

[laughs] Ouch.

"Outlook not so good."

[chuckles]

[Magic 8 Ball beeping]

You broke it.

Dad? Sid?

[radio static]

- [engine revving]
- [gasping]

Someone help me!

[breathing heavily] Help!

Hello?

- [man] Thaddeus.
- [gasps softly]

[breathing heavily]

Thaddeus Sivana.

Who are you?

How do you know my name?

I am the last of the Council of Wizards.

Sworn to protect the realms
from the Seven Deadly Sins.

But years have passed,

and I grow weak.

That is why I seek a champion

to inherit my magic.

You want me to do magic?

With this,

all of my powers will become yours.

Ah. But first...

you must demonstrate
that you're pure of heart

and strong in spirit.

[voices whispering]

[Wrath] He lies.

Don't be his champion.

We can give you power.

[Wrath] Take the eye.

[Envy] Take it.

[Greed] Your father thinks you're weak.

Show him your power.

[Envy] Take the eye.

- [Wizard] No.!
- [gasps].

[Thaddeus] What?

What happened?

Only the purest of hearts
can resist their temptations.

But you,

you will never be worthy.

[bangs Staff]

[Christmas music playing on radio]

Wait.

I'm good enough, I swear!
- What?

Let me back in!

- Calm down, Thad!
- [Thaddeus shouting]

- Don't open the door!
- Stop it!

- Calm down.
- Stop!

Hey, I'm gonna kill you,
you little freak!

[tires screeching]

- Stop... Oh!
- [truck horn blaring]

- [tires screeching]
- [all yelping]

[Mr. Sivana exhales]

I was just there.

This man, this wizard,
he took me to a castle and...

[Mr. Sivana] Stop. Stop!

Stop it!

You miserable, whiny, little shit!

You could have killed us!

Do you understand that?

[tires screeching]

[Christmas music continues playing]

- [music stops]
- [breathing heavily]

Dad?

Dad!

Dad?

You're okay.

You're gonna be okay.

[groans]

[coughing]

- [Mr. Sivana groaning]
- [young Sid panting]

You did this.

You did this!

No.

Dad.

[gasps]

[stone cracking]

Your magic grows weak.

Soon, you won't be able to contain us.

Seeking Spell,

find me one soul who is worthy.

No matter how long it takes.

[alarm ringing]

Holy moly! The boys in blue!

Sure glad to see you.

I called as soon as I saw.

They're in there.

You stay here.

- Police!
- [alarm stops]

I saw 'em hide back in there.

- [female officer] Police, coming in!
- Police!

- There's nobody here.
- What do you mean?

- It's a closet.
- You really bought that, huh?

[grunts]

- Hey, no, no, no!
- Hey!

Stop, stop, stop!

Open this up right now, kid.

That's a federal offense, kid.
You can't do that!

Do not go in that car.

Come on, open the door. Please.

Please, come on.

Open this, right now! [grunting]

Very good, very funny.

Very funny. That's great.
That's hilarious.

Uh, Dispatch, we need backup at
the Laurelwood shopping center, please.

[clears throat]

[imitates male officer]
Dispatch, cancel that request.

Some kid stole our walkie-talkies.

[dispatcher]
Walkie-talkies? How old are you?

[inhales sharply]

No, no, no.

That's my lunch, kid!

[Billy] Miss Batson...

I've been looking for you.

[sighs] No. Gosh.

It's me. It's Billy.

[sighs]

[indistinct chattering]

[groans] Okay.

- [groans]
- I want the tiger.

I know, honey, I know.
But Mom's not exactly going pro here.

[gasps] We got one! [chuckles]

But I wanted a tiger.

Oh, but this is
the real prize, baby. See?

You can use that your whole life.

You'll always find your way.

[crowd chattering]

[whispers]
I can't let the ball get away.

Mom?

Mom!

Mom!

Hey.

Who are you with, bud?

Yeah, he says it's Billy Batson.

Hey, don't worry, kid.

I'm sure she'll come looking
before too long, okay?

They always do.

[sighs]

Mom, I'm home.

[exhales]

[exhales]

[doorbell rings]

[Woman] Yes?

Yeah, uh, is this Rachel Batson?

Who's asking?

Um...

Yeah, see, the thing is...

I think you're my mom.

You sure about that?

Sorry to bother you.

[sighs]

[siren wails]

[male officer on loudspeaker]
Just had to take my lunch, huh?

You save me any fries?

Foster home in Pittsburgh
reported you missing two weeks ago.

You're sending me back?

No.

They don't want you.

- [scoffs] Harsh.
- You laugh,

but you've run from foster homes
in six counties, Mr. Batson.

From good people

who want you, all in pursuit of someone

who arguably does not.

It's time someone looked you in the eye
and told it to you straight.

I don't need parents
to play make-believe with.

- I got a mom.
- Yes.

You're some detective.

Seventy-three Batsons

between the ages of 28 to 40,
and you've crossed out every one.

She's still out there. I know it.

There's a couple outside, Mr. Batson.

They run a group home.

I can take care of myself.

When you're 18.

Until then,
I won't have you living on the streets,

looking for someone
who never looked for you.

Give these people a chance.

'Cause that's what they're giving you.

You're out of options.

[car door opens]

I'm gonna skip the spiel.

Just know that me and Rosa, we get it.

We were foster kids back in the day.

Ooh, back in the Dark Ages.

Girl, I'm young at heart.

I got my finger on the pulse.

Yeah, that's a reference

- to his blood pressure because he's old.
- [laughs]

Billy, do you have any food allergies?

[Victor] Gonna wish you did.
Darla's cooking.

- [Rosa speaks Spanish]
- What?

[Rosa in English] We know
how overwhelming it can all be.

New house, new faces.

[Victor] All up in your face.

Just take it at your own speed.

[music playing]

Hello?

We're home.

That's what happens when you suck!

So much for the welcome party.

[sighs] Yeah, that thing
growing out of the couch

would be Eugene.

Is that him?

Oh, my gosh! Billy!

[Victor] Whoa! Slow down, slow down.

[Darla] Welcome home!

- [Rosa] And that's Darla.
- I'm Darla.

Big hugger.

I noticed.

Die, die, die!

He doesn't mean that.
It's a game.

Hey.

No sodas after dark, remember?

Whoa. When did it get dark?

Oh, the poster.
I made you one.

Come look! Oh, no!

Sorry, Pedro must've been working out.

His goal is to get swole.

[Eugene] Just one hit! Just one hit!

Oh...

Here.

Yes, exactly why your math department
is so uniquely suited for me.

[Eugene] Shut up! No!

I can't even with Eugene right now.

I'm sorry. Mary, hi. College interview.

I'm Billy.

What am I most excited about?

Oh! What a great question.
I was hoping you'd ask.

[mouthing] What am I most excited about?

[mouthing]

Mention you're a foster kid.
Colleges eat that up.

What I'm most excited about
is the campus experience.

As a foster child, I'm a big believer
in finding family and friends

in the most unlikely of places.

I'm gonna miss that girl so much.

It's Caltech.
It's a very prestigious school.

And also all the way in California.

But we don't have to talk
about that right now.

It's a tough subject for me.

Do you like vegan food?

- Mmm-mmm.
- Because, see, I love animals.

[fire alarm beeping]

- [Rosa gasps]
- Oh, no! The Tofurky!

Oh, no, we may have to eat
a real turkey!

- Is that...
- It's okay.

Come, I'll show you your room.

It's a bit of a madhouse,
I know, but it's fun.

[Eugene] Time to dance on your grave!

Watch the bum step. Pedro...

[Speaking Spanish]

- [music playing over earphones]
- [in English] Say hi to Billy.

Don't take it personally.
He's like that with everyone.

Freddy.

This is Billy Batson.

Make sure you make him feel at home.

- Okay?
- Yeah.

Maybe don't say anything too weird?

Oh, one weird thing is,

did you know that Romans used to
brush their teeth with their urine?

And apparently, it works.

Yep. Um...

Oh, it's a long way down.

Trust me, I speak from experience.

Victor pushed me.

They seem nice, but don't buy it.

It gets real Game of Thrones
around here.

What?

[snickers]

Dude, I'm just messin' around.

It's, um, terminal cancer.
I only have three months.

Kidding, again!
You look at me, and you're like,

"Why so dark? You're a disabled
foster kid. You've got it all."

Right? [chuckles]

Oh, yeah, that's the old Batarang.

I mean, it's a replica,
but feel how sharp.

I could kill you in your sleep
with that thing.

You more of a Supes guy?

Yeah, me, too.
Behold, the holy grail.

One nine-millimeter round
shot at Superman himself.

It's legit.

Probably worth, I don't know,
five, six hundred, maybe more.

What's in the bag?

Hey.

Hey, it's all good.
It's good to maintain boundaries.

[sighs] You don't gotta talk so much,
you know.

Anyway, this place is great.
You're gonna love it.

[Victor] Dinner!

All hands on deck.

[Rosa speaks Spanish]

- [chuckles]
- [Victor] Thank you for this family.

Thank you for this day.

Thank you for this food,
even if it's not steak filet.

[Darla laughs]

Big school.
2,000 students, you might think,

"Wow, so many strangers."

But not if you think of them
as possible future friends.

Then it's,
"Wow, so many friends."

The principal, her name's Shirley.
She's the best.

- Next.
- [metal detector beeping]

This is our security scanner.

Like in an airport.
It's totally safe.

I know what it is.

- Does she always do this?
- Mmm-hmm.

Silence makes me uncomfortable.

She's almost never uncomfortable.

Have a good first day, big brother.

Look, you don't have to hug me
all the time.

We're not actually
brother and sister, so...

[Darla] I'm sorry.

- Hey.
- Hey.

[stammers] I didn't mean to make her...

[Ms. Kwan on TV]
I was overwhelmed, honestly.

He said I must be pure of heart.

He call himself a wizard.

He even dressed like a wizard
from Harry Potter or some...

But you're saying
that other people have experienced this?

In a sense, yes.
Do you remember what he said to you?

He tested me.

There were these statues.

Their eyes, it's like they were
looking at me, making me think things.

Horrible things.

And do these approximate what you saw?

Yes, that's exactly how I remember it.

I don't understand.
How do you know...

Recurrent imagery has proven very common
in cases of mass hysteria.

Mass hysteria?

I know. The term's a bit theatrical.

But take UFO sightings, for example.

Lights in the sky, flying saucers.

Isolated incidents of people
who do not know each other...

[man] The symbols.

Ask her about the symbols.

Sorry, Ms. Kwan.
But as an example of recurrent imagery,

maybe you'll recall seeing

these symbols
before the alleged abduction.

I don't remember any symbols, no.

I think I got it on video.
There was something, um...

I remember the numbers
on my alarm clock.

They kept shifting.

Video?

Show me the video.

Uh, Ms. Kwan, this is Dr. Sivana.

- Um, one moment, I can send it.
- [keyboard clacks]

- [rumbling]
- [Ms. Kwan on video] Hello? Oh, my God!

Who's there?

Hello? What's going on?
What's happening?

[stammers] I 'm going to call the police!

Then this blinding light all around me

and I felt like I was getting
pulled down into something.

It felt like a temple
carved inside a mountain.

He looked exactly what you'd expect
from a guy who calls himself a wizard.

and how you were brought there
to save the world.

- [man] Wearing a cape.
- And there's no ceiling.

[scientist] We ran the numbers again...

Dr. Sivana!

I appreciate your enthusiasm,
but you're funding my project.

And when I'm interviewing,
I don't wanna be interrupted.

Fifty-six recorded abductions.

- I never saw it.
- Saw what?

Doctor, what is all this?

All these years...

I was convinced
I had the incorrect sequence.

Or perhaps the wrong symbols

to open the door.

But on that woman's alarm clock,
the seven symbols.

The sequence
repeated itself seven times.

That's the difference.

Is this some sort of joke?

It may seem that way to you

because we're not
in actuality studying mass hysteria.

What all these people have seen,

every single one of them,
is absolutely real.

[scoffs] An alarm clock malfunctions

and your first thought is
it's proof of a wizard?

- Hmm.
- Come on, Dr. Sivana.

You can't believe any of this is real.

[Dr. Lynn gasps]

[groaning]

[screaming]

Why, yes.

Yes, I do.

[exhales sharply]

- [footsteps approaching]
- [labored breathing]

[wizard groaning]

I've been waiting for this moment
for so long...

and now here we are.

You don't remember me, do you?

I remember you.

You were a boy.

And now you dare intrude in my kingdom.

Do you know what it's like for a child
to be told you'll never be good enough?

No, you don't.

What you said to me all those years ago
made me realize who I really was.

And you know something?

[voices whispering]

I am not pure of heart.

[Wrath] The wizard
is too weak to stop us.

No!

No!

[rumbling]

[Wrath] You never found your champion.

But we found ours.

[grunting]

[Wrath growls]

[groaning]

[Wrath] You are the true champion.

[panting]

[breathing heavily]

[wizard] They're using you.

You're nothing to them
but a means of escape.

[grunts]

Through you, they'll spread their poison
to everything they touch!

Make mankind turn on each other!

[Dr. Sivana]
You seek a pure soul, old man,

but no one's worthy.

[groans]

[panting]

- [students chattering]
- Flight or invisibility?

If you could have one superpower,

flight or invisibility,
what would you pick?

I mean, everybody chooses flight.
You know why?

So they can fly away
from this conversation?

No, no. 'Cause heroes fly.

And who doesn't want people to think
they're a hero, right?

But invisibility, no way. [scoffs]

That's pervy.

Spying around on people
who don't even know you're there.

Sneaking around everywhere.
It's a total villain power, right?

[chattering stops]

[Scoffs]

Then they did this study,
and this is a real thing.

They asked people the same question.
You know, what power do you want?

But this time, they made it
so the answers were anonymous.

And most people, since they knew
that it was secret, said invisibility.

And I think that's 'cause most people

don't feel like heroes
on the inside, deep down.

You're gonna run away.

I mean, you stole my Superman bullet.

Dude, I get it. I get it.

You've been screwed over
way too many times.

You don't trust anyone.

That's the thing about invisibility.
You end up all by yourself.

[scoffs] I didn't steal
your dumb bullet.

[door closes]

[students chattering]

Hey. How was it today?

That good, huh'?

[tires screeching]

- Whoa!
- [groans]

Oh, my God! Freddy.

Are you okay?

- You okay?
- [Freddy] Yes. Yes.

What the hell?

- What is wrong with you two?
- [Burke] Oh, ho!

- [groans]
- No way that's gonna buff out.

[Brett] You gonna pay for that, Freeman?

For the dent you made almost hitting me?

Yeah, sure. Um...

You guys take these?

[all laugh]

- [Brett grunting]
- [Freddy groaning]

- [Mary] Brett, stop!
- [continues groaning]

[both laughing]

Don't touch my brother!

What, do you need your fake family
to stand up for you?

- Stand up for yourself, Freeman.
- [Burke] Yeah, huh?

Hey, Freeman.
Freeman, here, stand up.

Stand up for yourself.

What are you gonna do,
go home and cry to Mommy?

[Burke] Oh, yeah.
You don't have a mommy.

- [punches landing]
- [Freddy groaning]

[Billy] Hey.

[both groaning]

Man, sorry about that.

That wasn't fair, but then again
you don't fight fair, so...

[both grunting]

[Billy groans]

Back off, assbags.
I know how to use these things.

- [both snicker]
- [groaning]

[Burke] Hey! He's getting away!
Where you going?

[Mary] Freddy, are you okay?

[panting]

[Brett] Hey, let's go through the back.

[Burke] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[grunts]

[indistinct chatter]

[woman grunts]

Nowhere to run!

Hey!

- [Brett] Go, go, go!
- [Burke] Grab him! Move!

- Get out the way.
- Move, woman!

Whoa!

- [Burke] No, no, no.
- [laughing]

You're dead, kid.

Yeah, you think you're funny.

We know where you go to school, buddy!

Woman on PM Next stop,
30th Street Station.

Change for the regional rail lines.

[panting]

[crackling]

[gasps]

Uh... Hello?

What's going on?

[train zooms past]

[thud]

Help!

[breathing heavily]

Okay.

Holy moly.

Hello?

- [train passes by]
- [gasps].

[echoing] What the hell?

Who's doing this?

[clears throat]

Hi. Um...

I was supposed to get off at 30th.

Billy Batson.

How'd you know my name?

I am the last of the Council of Wizards.

Keeper of the Rock of Eternity.

Oh...

You're...

that guy.

Hey, listen, I don't have any money.

Do not patronize me, boy.

[gasps]

You are standing
in the source of all magic.

The Rock of Eternity.
Seven thrones of seven wizards.

But long ago, we chose a champion

and we chose recklessly.

He used his power for revenge,

releasing the Seven Deadly Sins
into your world.

[people screaming]

Millions of lives were lost.

Entire civilizations
erased from existence.

That is why I vowed
never to pass on my magic

until I find one truly good person.

Strong in spirit,

pure in heart.

Look, man, maybe this is magic

and, I don't know,

but the people you're looking for,
good, pure people,

I'm not one of them.

I don't know if anyone is, really.

You, Billy Batson,

are all I have.

All the world has.

[bangs Staff]

Lay your hands on my staff.

Gross.

And say my name
so my powers may flow through you.

I open my heart to you, Billy Batson.

And in so doing,
choose you as champion.

- Thanks.
- [bangs staff]

Real sweet of you, mister,
but I really gotta get going.

My brothers and sisters
were slain by the Sins.

Their thrones lie empty.

My magic must be passed on.

- Now, speak my name!
- [bangs staff]

I don't know your name, sir.
We just met.

My name is...

Shazam.

[laughs] Wait, for real?

"Say it!
- C)Kay!"

Jeez.

So just say it'? Like...

Shazam?

Yes!

Carry my name,
and with it, you carry all my powers.

The wisdom of Solomon,
the strength of Hercules,

the stamina of Atlas,
the power of Zeus,

the courage of Achilles,
and the speed of Mercury.

[gasping]

What happened to me? Why am...

[stammers] What did you do to me?
What did you do to my voice?

You have been transformed
to your full potential, Billy Batson.

With your heart,
unlock your greatest power.

The thrones of
our brothers and sisters await.

[gasping]

Get me outta here!

[man] Dope!

[laughing]

My brother,
I applaud your choices today.

Gold shoes, gold belt, white cape.

It shouldn't work,
but hot damn, it does!

[continues laughing]

Ow!

[train horn blares]

[indistinct chatter]

Hey!

[Woman] Hey, babe!

[Rosa] Yes, Officer.

I'm aware he's run away in the past.

Twenty-three times?

Guy's got no social media presence.
At all.

The guy is a ghost.

[sighs]

You know, guys,
I'm happy to look for Billy.

More than happy.

But no, you gotta wash the dishes.
That's what's more important.

"What are you gonna do,
Freddy, run after him?"

[laughs mockingly] Very funny.

- [Freddy screaming]
- No, I said, don't scream.

- Uh... Victor? Victor!
- No, no!

- Victor!
- It's me. It's Billy.

It's Billy!

You asked me flight or invisibility.
I thought that was stupid,

but now I look like this
and I need your help.

Meet me back here after lights-out?

[footsteps approaching]

[Victor] 'Sup, bud? You all right?

Yeah. Yeah. I'm just...

I'm really sad because Billy's gone.

And, you know, maybe it's my fault.
Maybe I did it.

Uh, you know, maybe I snore.

Hey, hey, hey.
Not your fault, son, all right?

We'll find him, 'kay?

You don't snore that bad.

[sniffs] But you kinda smell.

[Shazam groans]

[exclaiming] Oh, thank God!

Hey. Stop right there.

How do I know you're not a supervillain
using telepathic abilities

to make me believe
that you're Billy? Huh?

What?

All I have to do
is press "dial" on this thing.

No! No., I have proof.
I have proof. Here.

[grumbles]

Look, I lied, okay?
I took your bullet.

- Oh, no! No., no, no.
- No!

[grunts in frustration]
Stupid adult hands.

But you saw it.

You saw it, right?
Look, Freddy, I swear. It's me, okay?

Look, I know we're not really
close friends or anything,

but you're the only person
that I know

that knows anything about
this caped crusader stuff.

- That's Batman.
- What?

Forget it.

Can l...

Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

[Freddy exclaiming in awe]

[both laughing]

On... on, my God!

It's crazy, right?

What are your superpowers?

Superpowers? Dude, I don't even know
how to pee in this thing.

Okay. Can you fly?

[Shazam] Okay!

Let's do this.

How do we do this?

Just, um, like, Superman it.

[imitates takeoff]

[weakly imitates takeoff]

Oh, my God.
Obviously, you have to jump.

Come on.

How is any of this obvious?

Okay.

Try, uh, to believe
that you can fly. Okay?

I read this deep dive

into peer-reviewed studies
about superpowers

and in six out of ten,
belief is the key.

Belief. Belief. Belief. Okay. Okay.
I believe I can fly.

- I believe I...
- [cell phone beeps]

I believe I can fly. [chuckles]

I believe...

Whoa! [groaning]

- Did you believe?
- [groans]

Yeah.

You wanna try invisibility?

How do I do...

Forget it. You know, okay.

- Okay, okay, okay.
- [cell phone beeps]

Oh, my God! It worked!

Where'd you go?

I'm right here. You can't see me?

Where?

[laughing] I'm invisible!

I'm right here. Over here.

[continues laughing]

I'm invisible! I'm invisible!

[man] Hey!

Nice outfit, dipshit.

- [snickers]
- [all laughing]

[Freddy] I might've been
testing invisibility

and super-intelligence at the same time.

Freeman, I'm gonna come over there
and beat you.

[Freddy gasping]

- [car alarms blaring]
- [dogs barking]

[Freddy laughs] Oh, my God!
The lightning emblem!

It was staring us right in the face
the whole time.

Literally!

- [laughing]
- [Shazam exclaims]

[both laughing]

Okay, okay.

Clearly, we gotta give you
a lightning-themed superhero name.

Yeah.

- [both continue laughing]
- [screaming]

[woman grunting]

Oh, right.

Hey, yo! Back...

off.

[Freddy] Hyper-speed, check. [laughing]

[stammers] I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

I thought you were the one
who was screaming.

- [man whimpering]
- I doused him with pepper spray.

Smart move.

Yeah, hey, Mr. Mugger Guy.
Give the old lady her purse back.

I'm your age.

And he didn't get a chance to take it
'cause I didn't let him take it.

Good. Yeah, good.
You're really on top of this stuff.

And that should teach you
that old ladies...

Regular-aged ladies like yourself
don't need your protecting, right?

So get woke, bro.

I'm sorry, who are you?

His name is Thundercrack,

hero to the people with all the
power and speed of lightning all in one.

Dude, that sounds like a butt thing.

[stammers]

Mister Philadelphia.

That's a cream cheese thing, dude!

Power Boy.
'Cause he's got all the powers.

'Cause sometimes pepper spray
can't protect against evil.

Power Boy, do you know this child?

[stammers] Like a teeny little bit.
I don't really know...

Yeah. He's like
a little miniature manager.

- I'm his manager.
- [stammers]

But Power Boy's not gonna work,
either, okay? So work on something else.

Hey, bud, what could...

[yelping]

Electricity manipulation, hyper-speed,
super-strength.

Dude, you're stacked!

You're almost as cool as Superman.
Almost.

I didn't see you.
I don't know what just happened here.

I don't wanna know.
Just don't hurt me.

- I'm not doing it for the money.
- Thank you for your kind donation.

No, no, no, but if you
ever need any more help

just look for the superhero
that still can't fly.

Forget flying, man.
We just made 73 bucks!

- Seventy-three bucks?
- [exclaims in delight]

Come on!

Hey, wait a minute.

I just got an idea.

[bell dings]

I'd like to purchase
some of your finest beer, please.

[Muzak playing]

I don't know about this.
I mean, we don't have a fake ID even.

Freddy, Freddy, would you relax?

- Look at me. lam the fake ID.
- [chuckles]

- [bell dings]
- [man] Everything from the register!

- Go, go! Now!
- [cashier screams]

Come on! We don't have any time.
Let's go. Move!

We want it all! Hurry.

This is your chance.

Oh! Okay.

Come on, come on, come on!
Let's do this!

That's it. That's it.

Gentlemen,

why use guns
when we can handle this like real men?

- Billy, look out!
- [groans]

Bullet immunity.
You have bullet immunity!

I'm bulletproof.

[Freddy laughing]

- [cell phone beeps]
- Today is December 8th,

and this is video proof of authenticity.

Shoot him again.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Here, here.
Go. Both of you!

Come on. Go to town.

Wait, wait, wait.

We still don't know if
the suit is bulletproof,

or if you are.

Shoot him in the face.

Shoot me in the face.
In the face?

[grunting]

[guns clicking]

It kinda tickles.

[both laugh]

You're dead.

[both screaming]

- Sorry about your window.
- Have a good night!

But you're welcome
for not getting robbed!

[man] Come on! Let's get outta here.

Hey.

- To fighting bad guys. [chuckles]
- Yeah.

[Freddy] Bleh!

Ugh!

That tastes like actual vomit.

- [bell dings]
- [Shazam chuckling]

Hey, do you know habanero jerky,

if you eat enough of it,
it can burn a hole in your stomach?

Worth it.

Yeah. Probably not you, though.
You've probably got stomach superpowers.

Probably. Oh, hey.

What's up? I'm a superhero.

Yeah, his name is, uh,

Captain Sparklefingers.

No, it's not.
No, it's not! That's not my name.

Hey, we should hang out.
We're, like, the same age.

- Oh, okay. I'm out.
- [siren wails]

Hey, wait up!

[Shazam] I mean,
it's a pretty sick view.

I totally get why Rocky
was training so hard to get up here.

You know, I like you like this.
This is so cool.

I mean, no offense,

but, like, at first you were kinda like
the opposite of how Darla is.

[Yawns]

A dick?

[yawns] Your words. Not mine.

But yeah.

All right, well,
I feel like every criminal

is either on drugs or asleep by now.

Wanna head home?

Looking like this?

Well, yeah,

I mean, usually,
we'd have a lair to go back to,

but that's long-term.

Right now, we have a bunk bed. [laughs]

[Christmas music playing]

Just scares me thinking of him out there
all alone.

This is what he does, Rosa.

Difference is, when they find him,
we'll be the first to take him back.

With open arms.

[laughs]

Didn't even make it two days.
Not even two days.

Baby, we did our fair share
of running off back when.

At least I did.

- Yeah.
- Even Mary did it.

Hmm? Twice.

That second time she ran off,

you said something to me
I'll never forget.

You said,

"It's not a home
until you call it a home.

It's something you choose."

All we can do is give him
a place full of love.

Whether he chooses to call it a home,
that's up to him.

Yeah.

You gonna help me with this tree?

[Rosa laughs tearfully]

- [Rosa] This tree's so sad.
- [stair creaks]

Hello?

[Freddy] Got lost finding the bathroom.

Oh, okay, Freddy, sweetie. Good night.

- [Freddy] Good night.
- [Shazam] Night.

[Shazam exclaims softly]

Freddy, who is that?

It's Billy. He's just really tired
and he has laryngitis.

What? Laryngitis!

I'm just kidding! I'm just kidding.

He's really, really tired,
and he wants to go to beddy-bye.

- Beddy-bye? Who says beddy-bye?
- Just hide, hide.

Billy, you're back. Let us see you.

We've been so worried about you.

I told you this was a bad idea!

- [switch clicks]
- [Darla] Freddy?

[Shazam gasping]

[Rosa] Freddy,
what happened to the stairs?

[muffled] Mmm!

Hey! Covering her mouth
like you're gonna kidnap her

is not gonna make her less scared, okay?

Darla, it's me. It's Billy.
I know I don't look like me.

- A wizard made me look like this.
- Maybe don't start with "wizard."

It's just gonna make her more confused.

Some old guy brought me to a temple
and he made me say, "Shazam."

Rosa!

[Freddy] Verbally triggered
body-manipulation properties!

You can switch by saying, "Shazam."

Baby, was that you?
Are you okay?

Uh...

I was screwing in a bulb.

Listen to me, Darla. You cannot tell
anybody about this, all right?

But it's Billy. He's a hero.

Yeah, but if a supervillain finds out
that he's a hero,

that endangers us, okay?

A hero's loved ones are
the perfect bad guy target.

I mean, is she even good
at keeping secrets?

- Moderate.
- No.

Oh, God.

Okay, listen, D,

you cannot tell a single soul
about this, all right? Please?

Why? What if it's people we trust?

[Billy sighs]

Because good sisters don't tell secrets.

- I'm a good sister.
- [Freddy] Yeah, you are.

You know what'd make you
an even better sister?

Is if you fixed the doorknob
for us, okay?

Yeah.

- Sweet dreams.
- Sweet dreams. Bye.

- See you in the morning.
- Good night.

[elevator bell dings]

Hello, sir. How may I help you?

Hi. Sir?

Sir, you can't go in there.
Excuse me!

- You cannot go in there!
- [indistinct chatter]

[chattering stops]

[sighs]

Sorry I'm late.

Thad, this is for board members only.

I'm aware of that, Father.

[beeps]

Now, that night in the car.

I swore to you I saw something,
but you never believed me.

So much easier to blame me, wasn't it?

And say that if I hadn't screamed
that night,

you'd still have your legs.

Well, now I have proof.

That's enough, Thad.

Dear Sid, you think?

You know, even before the accident,
you belittled me.

Don't make me
throw you outta here, Thad.

You don't need to make a scene.

Oh, brother,

the scene has only just begun.

Ask that if you can throw me out.

What?

Ask the ball if you're man enough
to throw me out of this room.

[laughing nervously]

Let me spoil it for you.

- [Dr. Sivana grunts]
- [screaming]

[board members gasping]

Outlook not so good.

I've come here during
the season of giving to give you...

what you deserve.

[panicked chattering]

- [Seven Deadly Sins snarling]
- [people screaming]

- [man] Run!
- [screaming]

[snarling]

[Yelps]

[roars]

[all screaming]

[snarls]

[screaming continues]

- [man screams]
- [receptionist exclaims]

[screaming continues]

[receptionist] Oh, my God! No!

No! No! [screams]

[screaming continues]

[breathing heavily]

- [electricity crackles]
- [veins].

[Mr. Sivana whimpering]

Help!

Somebody!

Help me!

You can't go crying to other people
all the time.

What sin best befits you, Father? Hmm?

I'll give you anything.

Money.

The company.
You want the company?

There it is.

Greed.

Do you honestly think

all this material you've accumulated

amounts to actual power?

This is power.

More than you ever had.

More than anyone has.

There is one more powerful.

The wizard found his champion.

Kill the champion
before he learns his true potential,

or he will defeat you.

Show me where to find him.

Oh, Greed,

you can have him.

No.

- [snarling]
- No.. Oh, no!

No.! No! No!

[growls]

[elevator beeping]

[narrator on video]
Family is more than just a word.

At Sivana Industries,
our focus is family.

[Static]

[truck lock beeps]

[whooshing]

[Brett] Uh, Burke.

Where's the truck?

[truck lock beeping]

I can hear it.

[students exclaiming]

[truck alarm beeping]

[Brett] Oh, my God!

My truck!

- My truck!
- Are you kidding?

You know, guys,

I don't think that's gonna buff out.

Hey.

Making the crippled kid
do the dirty work. Wow!

I'm a better lookout.
I can play innocent.

And I can't?

Your face gives off a very strong vibe
of someone who's hatching schemes.

- My face? This face?
- Yeah. Yeah.

Okay.

You boys got a hall pass?

Oh, us? Yeah. Always.

You!

You look like you're up to something.

Me? Up to something?

No. Never am I up to something.

Our dad's picking us up.
He got held up at the...

The business office.

The business office, huh?

Sure, kid.

Look, parents or guardians

must appear physically
to check out students.

Gotcha.

Okay, well, you hear that, Dad?

- Hey!
- [Billy] Shazam!

- [lightning crashes]
- Well, hey there, son,

and hey there,
other son that I also have

that's related to that son
I just passed in the hallway.

I'm so sorry I'm late.
I got held up at the business office,

doing all the work stuff.

This is the security guard
all the kids admire so much.

Oh. [chuckles]

Actually, that's the other one.
This one sucks.

[clears throat] That's not funny.

I'm gonna talk to him about that.
I apologize.

Anyway, this is me appearing physically
to check my sons out of school.

So, thank you so much
for keeping 'em safe, Detective Moron.

[door closes]

It's Moran.

- [Freddy] You ready?
- [Shazam] Algebra!

[Shazam] Science!

English!

[whooping]

Health!

[continues whooping]

[beeps]

Oh. Oh.

[grunts]

[laughing]

[laughs]

[yelping]

- [groans].
- [Freddy] Are you okay?

[Freddy grunts]

[grunts]

[exclaims, laughs]

[exclaims]

[gasping]

I'm sorry! [screams]

More powerful than a locomotive.

Locomotive.
What are you? An old prospector?

Can leap tall buildings
in a single bound.

[Freddy] Single bound.

[grunts]

- [people screaming]
- [Shazam] Oh!

I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!

I'm sorry, people. Hi.

- Your phone's charged.
- Wow!

Your phone's charged.

Your phone's charged.

You really need like a mic drop
catchphrase after you do some cool shit.

I've been thinking about that.

What about this?

"That's why you don't mess
with electricity." [mimics mic drop]

Catchphrases obviously
aren't one of your superpowers.

And your phone's charged.

- Well, you think you can do better?
- What the hell?

Let there be light.

[Shazam grunting]

Yeah, yeah, baby. Yeah, baby, okay.

[stomach grumbles]

How do I... Never mind.

Shazam!

[screaming]

[toilet flushes]

[Billy] Shazam!

[Freddy] What'd you see? What'd you see?
Were there boobies?

You see nipples? Why aren't you talking?

We're gonna need more money.

Why? You were in there
for, like, five minutes.

Dude, they were very convincing!

Oh, get it, get it!

Go, go, go!

[Shazam whooping]

[Freddy] No.!

Stop! No!

- I'm not even looking!
- Stop!

- I'm not even looking! Oh!
- Stop!

- Why?
- Oh, and done!

Finished him.

A lair.

Yes.

And obviously, we're gonna have to

- be making this purchase anonymously.
- Mmm.

Obviously.

And, um,
if you have a location on a cliff.

Like a castle-esque type thing.

- Overlooking some water.
- [Freddy] Overlooking some water,

seas, below it. Rough, you know...

Like a waterfall,

- so you can drive into...
- Waterfall, yeah. If you... Yeah.

Look, Maximum Voltage, is it?

You can call me Max.

Look, Max, why don't you just start with
how many bedrooms you're looking for?

- One!
- Seven.

- One?
- Seven?

What, am I running a foster home now?

[students chattering]

[girl] Have you seen the one
where he throws the football into space?

[boy] So dope.

Hey, you guys
gotta wonder who's filming those, right?

I mean, that's bravery in and of itself.

I mean, is it, though?

Yeah. I'd actually argue
maybe even more brave.

[Billy] Holding a camera?

[scoffs] Staring in the face of danger.

Like some weirdo fanboy.

Hey, Freeman.

I wouldn't do that if I were you.

What, is your bestie gonna hit us
with a wheelchair this time?

No, maybe not him,
but I have another best friend

who might hunt you down
and destroy both of you.

Okay, Freddy.

You may have heard of him.
[stuttering] The Human Power Storm.

Frequency Flinger. Sir Zaps-A-Lot.

Yeah. He's a man of many names.

[Burke] You know the Red Cyclone?

You? [scoffs] My ass you do.

Oh, we're a lot closer than you think.

Maybe even at this very moment.

Prove it.

I will, tomorrow.
Tomorrow he's gonna come to lunch.

Right, right, Billy?

Oh, yeah, and then Superman's
gonna be bringing us dessert, right?

[school bell ringing]

Tomorrow at lunch. You'll see.

And when he doesn't show,
then we'll kick your ass.

So, wait, my identity's a secret
so no one I know can get hurt.

Except when it makes you look cool,
then it's all good.

Billy, it's not like
they're supervillains.

They're just super douchebags.

So, you're breaking your own rule?

Got it.

[scoffs] This thing is as much as mine
as it is yours.

Starting to think
you think it's all your thing.

Billy, you're still gonna do it,
though, right?

- I mean, what would a good brother do?
- [door slams]

[Victor] All hands on deck.

Thank you for this family.
Thank you for this day.

Thank you for this food.
Sorry Billy's hand's on vacay.

Big news in Philly. Got a costumed hero.

He's doing good.

[Eugene] Yeah, but is he, though?

Ooh! Controversy. Into it.

Share with us your perspective, Eugene.

Just saying, he's what?
Charging people's phones?

So what?
I can charge a phone with a plug.

[Victor] Preach.

Pedro, any thoughts?

- Costume's stupid.
- [all laughing]

- Yeah.
- [Victor] Okay.

Big white cape like
he's getting married or something.

What if he didn't get
to pick his costume?

Ever think about that?

You're a specialist, Freddy.
What do you think?

Yeah, Freddy,
let's manage to see the positive.

Okay, Well, I think it looks like

he doesn't have gratitude
for what he's been given.

[Victor] Very specific. All right.

Maybe to the superhero,

gratitude doesn't mean
having to be clingy.

Clingy? Wow, interesting take.

[Billy] You know, maybe sometimes
a superhero just wants a little me time.

You know, me time could also
be construed as pushing away his family.

Family. ls that what they are now?

[Freddy] It's a classic symptom of
"Superhero Syndrome."

Coined by German psychologist
Heinrich Von German-something,

where superpowers become
an all-consuming narcotic.

[spoon clatters]

Son, we're still eating dinner.

What he needs is a sidekick.

Name one cool sidekick.

Darla, why are you
so quiet over there, baby?

You're never at a loss for words.

[mouth full] I'm eating.

- [bell ringing]
- [students chattering]

[Billy] Why am I still doing this?

[sighs] Well, you can't skip every day.

Not at your age.

But I'm not your age anymore.

But I can go with you.

We just gotta trick the guard out,
you know?

Billy, where are you going? [stutters]

You're still gonna have
lunch with me, right?

Billy!

Sir Zaps-A-Lot's
still gonna eat in the cafeteria, right?

- [bell ringing]
- [grumbling]

[camera shutter clicking]

All right.

Did you check it to...

People typically give me
a little money, you know...

You're a sweet couple.
You guys have a good day.

[vehicle approaching]

- [yelps and gasps]
- Ooh!

- Oh, my God.
- Mary, are you okay?

How do you know my name?

Uh... How do I know your name? Uh...

One of my superpowers is name guessing.

Which is really weird, I bet.

Uh, it's not as cool as
super-strength or super-speed,

but it's really helpful
when I meet new people.

Are you hurt?

[voice breaking]
No, I'm okay. Thank you. Um...

[sighs shakily]

I just need a second to think.

This has been such a weird day.

Um, using my powers
of super-observation,

I see that you're holding
a letter from a college in your hand.

Are you upset because you didn't get in?

I got in.

[stammers] Well, now my superpowers
are failing me and I am very confused.

Yeah. Me, too.

I don't know. I know I should be excited

'cause this is my dream and I've worked
really, really hard for this,

but it's like...

I don't know. Leaving my family
does not feel fun, you know?

[stammers] Could I give you
a little piece of advice?

Don't be worried about everybody else.
Always look out for number one.

Gandhi said that.

- I don't think he said that.
- Yeah, he did.

- Gandhi did not say...
- Somebody like Gandhi said that.

"Take care of number one."

It was a really wise...
It might've been Yoda.

- Listen.
- I'm sorry, no.

Agree to disagree.
The point is, you do you, you know?

You gotta look out for you. And get
as far away from this place as you can.

I don't know if I want to.

Of course you do. What're you gonna do?

You gonna live in a group home
for the rest of your life?

Look, families are for people

who can't take care
of themselves, okay? So...

And you can take care of yourself.

[stammering] Also, look both ways
when you cross the street.

I'll just call him. I'll just make sure.

- [indistinct murmuring]
- [whimpers softly]

It's ringing.

Red Cyclone, hey! Hey, what's going on?

Oh, that's crazy!
Yeah, it's Freddy, by the way.

Yeah, it's crazy! Great story.

[Scoffs]

He's not talking to anyone.

- [all laughing]
- I was!

I was! We're friends. I know him, I do!

I know him! I know him! Uh, yeah.

[Burke laughing]

Shit.

[birds squawking]

[Shazam] Come on now.

[singing] Hands!
Lightning with my hands!

Lightning with my hands!

Lightning with my hands!

Hey. HEY-

Hey, young man! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

What are you doing?
I'm in the middle of a show right now.

How can I help you?

I just wanted to say thank you
for showing up to lunch today.

Yeah, I got a little something
called a, uh, suitcase wedgie, right?

I don't know if you've ever heard of it,

but it's when someone grabs
your underwear like that

and holds you like a suitcase,
walks you down the hallway.

And this was my underwear.

[crowd murmuring]

Gross.

You said you'd come.

You said I would come!
I never said I was...

I'm a superhero, dude!

Well, you're acting real heroic.

How much people paying you today?

Listen, I have
serious responsibilities now, okay?

But that's cool because
I can carry that burden with my...

[singing] Hands!
Lightning with my hands!

[tires screeching]

[passengers screaming]

[car horn blares]

[passengers continue screaming]

[people gasping]

[man] Oh, man!

Holy moly.

[tires screeching]

Don't move! Nobody move!

[passengers screaming]

Oh, no, no!

Oh, no, no, no! Stay, stay! Stay!

[man yelping]

[grunting]

[screaming]

Oh!

Oh, that looked like it hurt.

It's him! It's that superhero guy!

Help us! Save us!

Come on!

Come on... Yeah.

[woman] What's he doing?
What's going on?

No way.

[passengers screaming]

[screaming]

Oh, no, no.
Please don't make me do this.

God, this is the worst idea ever!

[screaming continues]

[whoops]

I did it! I did it!

I got the bus! I got the bus.

Nobody move in there.

Oh, I gotta put this thing down.
I gotta put this thing down.

[grunting] Oh!

[breathing heavily] Oh.

Oh, no, no, no, no.
Doggy, doggy, you have to move.

Move! Move! Shoo! Shoo!

Please be a good dog, good dog!

You're being a bad dog!

Go! Go!

Please go. Please move.

Yes, thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

[grunts]

- [Shazam sighing in relief]
- [passengers chattering]

- Yeah. Yeah, no, no, no, no.
- [woman whoops]

I was in the neighborhood, you know,
so I thought...

[both] Thank you!

It was kind of my fault anyway.

- [indistinct radio chatter]
- [siren wails]

So, it seems Philadelphia has gotten
an early Christmas present

in the form of its very own superhero.

[cameraman] And we're out.

- Thank you very much.
- Oh, of course, yeah.

Dude! Dude, dude!
Dude, did you see that?

Yeah. You electrocuted a bus
and almost killed these people.

And then I caught it!

Freddy, I caught a bus
with my bare hands, man!

I caught a bus
like people catch fly balls.

Like, who does that? I do that!

Billy! You do nothing.

You take selfies
and make people pay you.

You know, forget it. I can't really
talk to you when you look like this.

You just wish it was you.

No shit!

You think?
I would kill to have what you have.

Because everything I do is, like,

some desperate attempt
to get people to notice me.

To not feel sorry for me.

I mean, look at me! Look at me.
Do you even see me?

'Cause most people don't.
'Cause they don't want to.

And now you don't either.

I mean, you think this is who you are?

I mean, Billy, you're 14,

and now you're no better
than the Breyers.

All this power, and all you did
was turn into a show-off and a bully.

[Shazam] Whatever, kid!

I do what I want!

[people exclaiming]

And I'm, like, mid-20s probably!

Maybe even, like, 30.

Chosen one.

The so-called perfect man.

Pure of heart.

Flawless in every way.

What made you so worthy?

I'm sorry, can I help...

Do you want an autograph or something?

Give me your power.

Or die.

Oh, snap!
You're, like, a bad guy, right?

Okay. Okay, okay, okay.
Before this gets really stupid for you,

you should know that
I'm basically invincible.

- [groaning]
- [crowd gasps]

[coughing]

The weapons of man
draw no blood from our kind.

- [officer] I said, stop right there!
- [both grunt]

The only thing
that extinguishes magic...

is magic.

Time to transfer your power to me.

- [groaning]
- [Shazam whooping]

Oh, you did not see that one coming,
did you, grandpa?

Them's street rules.

[Shazam grunting]

Okay, okay, okay.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I never should've punched you
in the nuts like that.

That was totally my bad.

We can talk about this.

You grovel like a child.

That's because I am one. I'm a kid!

You don't wanna hurt a kid, do you?

[Shazam screaming]

I believe I can fly!
I believe I can fly, I can fly!

Freddy said if I believe I can fly,
then I can fly.

So I believe! I believe! I believe!

Okay.

Superman!

Superman! What arm is it?

Why am I not flying?

Please, I don't wanna die!

[gasping]

[exclaiming]

[whooping]

I'm floating!

[truck horn blaring]

- [screaming]
- [tires screeching]

[screaming]

[tires screeching]

[man] What the hell was that?

[laughing] I can fly!

[both grunting]

- [Shazam yelps loudly]
- [glass shatters]

Billy?

Freddy! I need your help!

You can fly?

- [Shazam grunts]
- [panicked screaming]

Who's the other guy?

Santa!

[laughing]

So, like, what do you and Mrs. Claus
do in the summertime?

Well, in some ways,

- Santa is always here for you.
- [rumbling]

[People gasp]

[all gasp]

Help Santa!

Santa needs help! Help!

Give us a shout if you need us.

- [Shazam screams]
- [women scream]

[both gasp]

[groans]

[Coughs]

I'm just gonna chill in here
for a little while, if that's okay.

[grunts] This is crazy.

This is crazy.
You don't have to fight this guy.

This isn't your job. You can run, right?

Yes, you can run. Awesome!

[both grunting]

- [children's music playing]
- [Shazam grunting]

[Shazam] Get back!

Get away!

- [Batman toy] I'm Batman!
- Get him, Batman!

- Oh, sorry.
- [both yelp]

[continues grunting]

[crowd exclaiming]

[notes playing]

[low notes playing]

- [groaning]
- [people screaming]

Come on!

[gasping]

[woman screaming]

[Shazam exclaims]

[grunting]

[people screaming]

[gasping]

[stuttering] Shazam!

[thunder rumbling]

[people screaming]

[people continue screaming]

[Freddy] Billy!

Billy!

Billy, where are you?

Billy!

Where are you, Billy?

[inaudible conversation]

Billy, come on!

Billy. Where is he?

Supervillain.

Supervillain! Supervillain!
[whimpers softly]

Worse. Much worse.

Radioactive anthromorph?
Psychic energy manipulator?

I won't let you read my mind.
My mind is blank. You can't get in.

I don't need to read your mind.
Because you are going to tell me.

Where is he?

[horn honking]

[breathing heavily]

Oh, my God, honey, are you okay?

- Are you okay?
- Yeah.

[Rosa] What happened? Are you hurt?

Come inside.

[Victor] We need to have a talk.

[Rosa] Just don't be
so hard on him, okay?

Running out on us! Lying!

Huh? Then I get a call from the school,
telling me you've been cutting class!

Getting in fights!

[Victor continues yelling]

[Eugene sighs]

[Charlie on TV]
Bill, the man saved nine people.

Whoa! ls that...

I'm questioning his motive.

What's Freddy doing with a superhero?

[newscasters continue indistinctly]

Or what's a superhero doing with Freddy?

You remember dinner,

when Billy and Freddy were arguing
like an old married couple, like this?

When he rescued me,
he knew I lived in a group home.

He knew my name. He called me Mary.

[newscasters continue indistinctly]

Wait, are you saying Billy's
the Human Power Storm?

Yes! You guys figured it out!

All on your own. I didn't help.

- I didn't break any promises.
- You knew?

I'm a good sister!

[Victor] I mean, what were you thinking?

And then you bring Freddy into it.

Give him some space, guys.
He's a little upset, okay?

[Mary] Billy?

You're him.

You're the hero.

Yeah, well, not anymore, so...

[sighs]

Why do you have my notebook?

Eugene finished your search.

Look, I'm not a hacker, okay?

But I have played Watch Dogs and Uplink.

And maybe I did pick up a few skills,
which maybe did get me

into federal databases
most people can't get into.

Good for you, but I'm gonna go.

Your parents' names
are Marilyn and C.C. Batson.

What?

[Eugene] You were born
in Zumbrota, Minnesota.

They divorced when you were three.

Your mom moved here that year.
Twenty months later, you got lost.

You never found them

'cause your dad's been in prison
in Florida for ten years.

And your mom's...

What?

Is she dead?

She's two subway stops away.

What?

You know, you didn't find her
because she reverted to her maiden name.

[door slams]

[Rosa] Hey, Billy! Billy!

- Victor, get the keys.
- I got it.

[Rosa] Kids, stay here
in case Billy comes back.

[tires screeching]

Come on. Inside, let's go.

Wait. I thought
we were running after Billy.

No, we're gonna wait here for now.

[doorbell rings]

Billy?

Freddy?

[Freddy grunts]

Oh, how quaint.

Actually, I take that back.

What a shithole.

[couple arguing]

[glass shattering]

[loud thump]

[argument continues]

[exhales]

[woman] Just a second.

Hey, look, I'm late
for work already, all right?

We don't need any magazines or whatever.
Thanks, though.

Oh, I'm not.

You probably don't recognize me...

but I found my way home.

Mom.

It's me.

Oh, God.

Is it?

Um... Hang on.

[man] Who's at the door?

It's, um...

It's no one, Travis.

That wasn't Dad, was it?

No.

Listen, um...

It's really you, huh?

I didn't mean to run away.
You know that, right?

I let go, but it was by accident.
[stuttering]

Yeah, no. I know, yeah.

I saw you.

What?

I saw you after.

So, it was never your fault.

Look, I was 17, okay?
And my daddy kicked me out.

And your dad just decided
not to be a part of anything.

And I was hurting, and I was screwed up.

[sighs]

- I want the tiger.
- I know.

I know, honey,

but Mom's not exactly
going pro here, okay?

Billy?

Billy!

Billy?

Jesus Christ. Billy, this isn't funny!

Here you go, buddy.

That should warm you up. ls that better?

[sniffles]

[Marilyn] Look, it's just once
I saw you with the police,

I realized that they could do

a better job taking care of you
than I ever will.

But you're good, right?

I mean, you landed on your feet.

Because, I mean, you look real good.

It's just...

now is not a really good time
for me, Bill.

All I wanted to do is
let you know I'm doing good,

[sighs] but I have to get back
to my real family.

Here.

What's this?

[Travis] Marilyn!
What's goin' on out there?

You might need it more than me.

[cell phone vibrating]

Freddy, you were right.
I'm sorry I yelled at you.

[Dr. Sivana] Come home, Billy.
Come home.

[Freddy] Billy! Supervillain!
Supervillain! [whimpers]

Shazam!

[wreath clatters]

Who are you? What do you want?

What do I want?

- I want...
- [thunder rumbling]

That.

Whoa.

Kick his ass, Billy!

[children whimpering]

[Dr. Sivana] Yes, Billy.

- Try it, by all means.
- [snarls]

Let them go and I'll come inside.

[Dr. Sivana] No, first, you come inside,

then maybe I'll let them go.

[snarling]

[all gasp]

Good boy.

Because that's all you are, isn't it?

How old are you?

- Basically 15.
- Hmm.

When I was a child, the old man told me
I wasn't good enough.

Yet here you are, a coward.

Run from me and the wizard chooses you?
You're not a hero.

But I'm gonna give you
the opportunity to be one.

Give me the power of the champion.

No. Don't do it, Billy.

Give me the power and I'll let them go.

Darla, no.

Don't go, Billy.

- [crying] Don't go, Billy.
- Darla, come here.

[Shazam stammering] No, I have to.

It's what a good brother would do.
Right?

Billy.

[Shazam screaming, grunts]

[groaning]

[Coughs]

[Dr. Sivana] I dedicated my life
to getting here.

I scoured the earth.

No one believed me.

- [continues groaning]
- No one helped.

Not the wizard.

Not my family.

I only had myself.

[Shazam] I get it.

[panting] I get what that's like.

Feeling like
you're all alone in the world.

Stand.

Feeling like there's that one thing,
and if you could just find it,

then you'd finally be good enough.

Stand.

The champion's name.

[bangs Staff]

Say it.

[wind howling]

[Seven Deadly Sins snarling]

Look, no offense, mister,

but I don't think these things
have your best interest at heart.

[Lust] Don't listen to this child.

[Wrath] Take the staff. [snarls]

[Sloth] Hold it
and say the champion's name.

They're using you.

You have to see that,
that they are using you.

[Dr. Sivana] Say your name.

[Freddy] His name...

is Captain Sparklefingers.

And we're gonna keep throwing things
at your big,

fat, ugly-eyed head,

until you let our brother go.

[Shazam grunts]

[both grunt]

Boy, am I glad
I didn't sell that Batarang.

- Pedro, is that a lamp?
- [Pedro] It's an ugly one.

[Shazam] Come on. Come on. Come on.

Guys, I appreciate the thought,

I really do, but I don't think
your weapons are gonna help.

You can put 'em down now.

The door was right here.

Billy, how do we get outta here?

What, you think I know? I don't know.

This way!

Go, go, go. Follow Darla.

Good job, Darla. Go, go, go!

[Rosa] Kids?

Why is this open?

Freddy? Mary?

[Shazam] Pedro, Pedro, come on.

Freddy? Freddy, keep up.

Darla, stay in front.

We gotta hurry.

[grunts]

[Batarang clatters]

[all panting]

[Eugene and Darla] Whoa!

[Darla] So many doors.

One of these has to be a way out, right?

Yeah, I would hope so.

[creatures grunting]

[creatures hissing]

[creatures snarling]

Not this one.

[creature warbling]

[snarls]

- [creature roars]
- [screams]

Okay, no more doors.
Nobody open any more doors.

Come on, Billy. What are we gonna do?

Darla, I don't know.

Yes, you do. Just think.
How'd you get out last time?

Uh, last time, I thought about
the subway, and I was on the subway.

Okay. Then, Billy, look,
think about the subway.

Think about any place
except for here, okay?

- [muffled music playing]
- [people gasp]

[Shazam] Come on, come on, come on.

[Darla] Why are you covering my eyes?

Really? This is the first place
you think of? Wow!

You're welcome!

[Darla] Why can't I see what's inside?

You are not old enough.

Old enough to know that was great music.

Not my thing.

Where's Freddy?

[Freddy] Yeah, you, too, Sriracha.

Hey, have a holly jolly Christmas.
[laughs]

Freddy! What are you doing?

[stammers] Nice people.

Nice people? Come on.

Is that glitter?
They have glitter! Can I get glitter?

[Mary] No, not from them.

[Darla] Please?

[Mary] No..

[people gasping]

[Mary] Darla.

[people exclaiming]

[exhales]

Go, go, go. Everybody, go!

Freddy? Freddy, Freddy.

One, two, three. Up, up. Up we go.

[Shazam pants]

Carnival, go! Go, Mary, go.

Come on, Pedro. Come on.

[indistinct chatter]

[Shazam] Don't run, but don't walk.
Just be cool.

Act naturally,
like kids naturally act in a carnival.

- He's not gonna look for us here.
- [girl] ls that him?

- [boy 1] Oh, my God!
- [boy 2] Dude, it's Zap-tain America!

- [boy 3] Power Boy!
- [Freddy] He's an impersonator, okay?

Yeah, I'm an impersonator!
I'm a fake version of myself.

Don't take pictures.

[crowd clamoring]

Shazam!

[man] Hey! Where'd he go?

[woman] What, is he invisible now?

[all panting]

Oh, man, I just spit on a baby!

[both laughing]

Yo, what is that?

[woman] Who is that guy?

Champion.

[indistinct chatter]

You don't deserve that name.

[man] See that? Look at that up there!

[Dr. Sivana] Hiding behind
innocent people who will now die.

Because deep down
you're still just a scared little boy.

Oh, no.

- Run! Run!
- [panicked screaming]

[grunts]

- Oh! What do we do?
- [stuttering] Just hold on!

- To what?
- The bar, you idiot!

[grunting]

Well, you wanted me to be a hero.

Are you kidding?

Okay, no. Old guy's up there
harboring multiple spiritual entities.

Plus, he has the same powers as you.

Plus, I mean, he knows what he's doing.

Plus, I mean, you're my best friend.
I don't want you to die.

If a superhero can't save his family,

he's not much of a hero.

That was a decent catchphrase.

Shazam!

[grunts]

Now, let's try this again.

[Dr. Sivana grunts]

[groans]

Or try that again!

[groans]

Billy, look out!

[Shazam] Laser eyes!
Guys, he's got laser eyes!

Too bad your aim sucks balls!

[grunts]

- [snarling]
- [Shazam screaming]

[Shazam grunts]

That's his power matrix.

His what-what?

When the demon guys leave his eye,
he loses his powers.

That's why the Batarang hurt him.

Hey!

Over here!

- Wait. What are you doing?
- Trust me. Divide and conquer.

We separate the Sins from the eye,
and he's just an old man.

Gather the mutts.

[bangs Staff]

[Seven Deadly Sins snarling]

[Mary] Run!

[all panting]

[screaming]

- [Mary] Darla, no!
- [Eugene screaming]

[roaring]

[panting]

[Shazam] Here. Take it.

Take it. It's for you.

Hold it tight.

Close your eyes.
Everything's gonna be okay.

- Okay?
- Mmm-hmm.

Okay.

[people screaming]

[snarls]

[Shazam groans]

[grunts]

- [Shazam straining]
- [growling]

[Shazam yelling]

- [straining]
- [snarls]

[roaring]

Shazam!

[roars]

[gasping]

[muffled] Shazam!

Playtime's over, boy.

Your friends can't help you anymore.

[muffled] Shazam!

- [Mary] Hey!
- [cocks gun]

[snarling]

[gasps]

Shazam!

[Shazam panting]

- [children whimpering]
- [Seven Deadly Sins snarling]

[Dr. Sivana] Nice trick.

Catchy.

One simple word.

I have a better trick.

Four words.

[snarling]

Kill the little girl.

- [all] Darla, no!
- [Mary] Take me instead!

- [snarling]
- [Darla whimpering]

Stop!

[Darla grunts]

[children groaning]

[Freddy] Billy, there's one more
demon guy in his eye!

You gotta just rip it out
of his face hole! [grunting]

It's where he gets his power.

[Mary grunts]

Reach for it.

I dare you.

Wise decision.

Hands on the staff.

[grunts] Billy, don't do this. Billy!

- [Mary] Billy.
- [Eugene] Don't do it, Billy!

[Freddy] Don't!

[wizard] Say my name so my power
may flow through you.

I open my heart to you, Billy Batson.

And in so doing, choose you as champion.

With your heart,
unlock your greatest power.

The thrones
of our brothers and sisters await.

[both grunt]

All hands on deck.

Say my name.

[all] Billy!

No, not my name.

Say the name that I say
to turn into this guy.

[all] Shazam!

[gasps]

[Super Hero Darla laughing]

[chuckles]

[gasps]

Guys.

What's happening?

I can fly!

[Super Hero Freddy laughing]

Guys.

- Check out these guns.
- [gasps]

No. It's not possible.

[sighs] Gee-whiz, mister.
Sorry I took your cane.

Do you want it back?

[Super Hero Darla]
Guys, I don't believe in violence,

but I think we should kick
this guy's butt, like, really hard.

Whoa!

[panting]

Guys, I think I can move really...

fast.

Hyper-speed! Check!

[Seven Deadly Sins snarling]

Billy! The eye!

[Shazam grunts]

Look out!

- [snarls]
- [Super Hero Eugene yelps]

Whoa!

What? [grunting]

- [Super Hero Mary] What!
- [Super Hero Freddy] Dude!

You almost exploded me.

- [snarling]
- [Super Hero Pedro grunting]

[roars]

[grunts]

[panicked screaming]

- [growling]
- [Super Hero Mary grunting]

[Super Hero Mary straining]

Dude, I've studied
the fighting techniques

of every single superhero.

What do you got?

[roars]

Well, that's terrifying.

[growls]

[Super Hero Freddy yelping]

Enough games, boy.

You think a pack of children can...

[Dr. Sivana speaking faintly
in the distance]

Wait, what?

[Dr. Sivana] You will beg for mercy

as I feast on your heart...

slow.

[Dr. Sivana continues speaking faintly]

Are you making some big evil guy speech
right now or something?

You're, like, a mile away from me
right now. There's cars and trucks.

I will have the world
eating out of the palm of my hand...

All I see is mouth moving.
I don't hear any...

Only I have the power to unleash...

Ah, whatever. Screw it.

[mimics fighting]

[boy gasps]

[gasps]

[whooping]

[growling]

[people screaming]

Oh, my gosh. Those people!

[girl screaming]

Hi!

Wow. I caught you.

[metal clanging]

[straining]

I got it. I got it.

[metal clanging]

Oh, my God. I do got it.

- [growling]
- [both screaming]

You're not gonna believe this,

but you're actually the first villain
I've ever fought.

It's kind of a huge deal for me.

[snarls]

[grunts]

[choking]

[Shazam screaming]

- [Christmas music playing]
- Somebody help!

[screaming]

[snarls]

[shouts indistinctly]

- [both panting]
- Hi. Wow. It's really you.

My name is Darla,
and I've been really good.

What?

[roaring]

Oh, crap.

No, no, no.

No, no. No!

[groans]

[growls]

[people screaming]

[both] No! No, no.

[Brett and Burke screaming]

[Burke] Oh, my God!

[Brett] ls he giving us
suitcase wedgies?

[both grunting]

[Shazam screaming]

[groans]

[groaning]

[sirens wailing in distance]

So this is, like,
the Seven Deadly Sins, right?

I mean, I've never been great at math,

but, uh, the big, angry one,
that's Wrath, yeah?

And then Gluttony, obvi.

Pride, Greed, Sloth, Lust,

who I thought was gonna be
way hotter, if I'm being honest.

But that's only six.
Where's lucky number seven?

Where's little man? Where's Envy?

Is he just scared of me and my family
because we're so awesome?

Because I get that.

Like, the other sins,
they get to come out and fight

because they're big
and strong and scary.

But Envy...

he's just the runt.

[Envy growls]

And that's why all the other sins
never invite him out to play, man.

Because they all know who'd win.

And it's not weak, worthless, ugly Envy.

[growling]

[Dr. Sivana screaming]

[grunting]

[snarls]

[Shazam grunting]

- Gotcha.
- [snarling]

Shazam!

[Shazam grunts]

[screaming]

[panting]

Shazam!

[continues screaming]

[Dr. Sivana groaning]

Ready to go round up your buddies?

[snarls]

[roars]

- [Shazam grunts]
- [groans]

[Shazam grunting]

[breathing heavily] No. No.!

[Super Hero Darla grunting]

[Super Hero Mary sighs]

[both grunting]

[snarling]

[Shazam straining]

[grunts]

- Here's the thing about power.
- [Dr. Sivana groaning]

What good's power,
if you got nobody to share it with?

- [Super Hero Mary] Nice.
- [Shazam] Ta-da!

That's disgusting.

[in a deep voice] Fatality.

[all laughing]

[in normal voice] I got the voice.

[laughs]

What's that?

[voices whispering]

I can have anything I've ever wanted?

- Billy.
- [all protesting]

[both] No, no, no!

- [Super Hero Darla] Stop it!
- [Super Hero Pedro] Don't look at that!

[all] Billy, don't do it!

Ah! [laughing]

- You should hear yourselves!
- Not funny.

You think I'm gonna put
a demon ball in my head?

That's disgusting.

That's funny. That's pretty funny.
You got me going.

- You got me going.
- Uh... Guys.

- [people chattering]
- [Shazam laughing]

What?

[people applauding]

Oh. Hey.

[Super Hero Darla] Oh, wow. [chuckles]

[Super Hero Darla and Shazam exclaim]

[crowd cheering]

- [people applauding]
- [laughing]

All right, We did it!

Hey, all right, yeah! We did it!

We did it! [laughs]

Hey, you guys are all safe.
There's no more danger anymore.

- We're fine. It's okay.
- All right, all right, all right.

[Super Hero Pedro] We're good.

- [cheering continues]
- [whooping]

[Shazam] You sure this is gonna work?

[Super Hero Freddy] Told ya.

[Super Hero Mary] Whoa!

[Super Hero Freddy] Whoa!

[laughter]

You guys know what this place is, right?

A dark, haunted cave with demon statues.

Well, yes, but also...

[gasps] Lair! We got a lair!

- [softly] Lair.
- Yeah.

- [Shazam laughing]
- No, you right.

- [Super Hero Mary laughs]
- We got a lair.

What's a lair?

And thanks to six superheroes,

citizens are back in their homes,
safe again with their families.

And here with an eyewitness account
of the events...

It was [bleep] crazy, man!

Creatures from [bleep] hell!

Lightning coming out
of everyone's [bleep] everything!

And that is not [bleep] cool, man!

[Freddy] So, first day as a superhero.

[Eugene] Automatic top spot
for best ever.

The man shattered
the glass noodle ceiling.

- No. That's racist.
- [Eugene] Not if I say it.

Guys.

- All hands on deck.
- [Eugene] Oh!

[laughing]

[Rosa] Wait, wait, wait. [laughs]

Wait.

Thank you for this food.

Thank you for this day.

Thank you for this family.

I thought maybe this time I'd stay.

[Victor chuckles]

I mean, after all,

I'm home.

[chuckles]

[indistinct chatter]

[laughter]

[students chattering]

[girl] He better not sit at our table.

Nope!

Okay.

What are you doing?

Waiting for your imaginary BFF
to show up?

[Burke] Yeah.

[grunts]

What are you guys doing here?

Well, we're having lunch with you.

But you guys have
different lunch periods.

Well, we made
a very special arrangement.

- Darla, what's going on?
- [mouth full] Why are you asking me?

Freddy Freeman.

[students gasp]

This guy taught me everything I know
about being a dope superhero.

True story. You should get
some pointers from him.

What's going on,
my best bud in the whole world?

And also new kids that I'm meeting
for the first time but seem very cool?

Uh... [chuckles]

I invited another friend.
I hope that's okay.

[students gasping]

[gasps loudly]

[Dr. Sivana grunting]

Sun of Ra.

Ouroboros.

[breathing heavily]

Solomon's...

Knot.

- [pencil breaks]
- [groans]

[screaming]

No! No.!

[panting]

[voice laughing]

[voice on speaker] Primitive symbols.

You walking, talking monkeys
with your cave drawings.

You assume there's only one way
to gain magic.

No, no, no.

There are more ways
than a mind can imagine.

What in God's name?

I name the gods, Doctor.
Not the other way around.

Oh, what fun
we're going to have together.

The Seven Realms are about to be ours.

[laughing]

[shushing]

Don't beat yourself up, buddy.
You're gonna find someone.

[laughs] Yeah, I'm sure.

Because there's plenty of fish
in the sea.

[laughs]

Of course it's not real.
I can't talk to fish.

Even if I could, I mean, honestly,
what could we do with that that's cool?

[scoffs] I don't know, maybe command
an army of billions in the ocean.

Oh, yeah. Well, that's not that cool.
