Billy has arrived at his latest (and last) foster home and Rosa is encouraging the other children to welcome him.
Rosa
Freddy... this is Billy Batson. Make sure you make him feel at home. Okay?
Freddy
Yeah.
Rosa
Maybe don't say anything too weird.
Freddy
Oh! One weird thing is... did you know the Romans used to brush their teeth with their urine? And apparently it... it works.
Clip 2
Shazam has just saved a woman from a vicious robbery. She's curious as to who he is. Which you would be, wouldn't you?
Woman
Who are you?
Freddy
His name... is Thundercrack. Hero to the people, with all of the power and speed of lightning all in one.
Shazam
Dude, that sounds like a butt thing.
Freddy
Yeah...
[Thinks of an alternative]
Mister Philadelphia!
Shazam
That's a cream cheese thing, dude!
Clip 3
Shazam and Freddy stumble upon a robbery in progress at the local grocery store. They decide that Shazam should intervene.
Shazam
Gentlemen! Why use guns when we can handle this like real men?
[SHAZAM takes the gun out of one of the ROBBERS' hands]
Freddy
BILLY, LOOK OUT!
[The other ROBBER shoots SHAZAM and the round ricochets off him and tumbles, flattened to the ground]
Bullet immunity. You have bullet immunity!
Shazam
I'm bulletproof!
Freddy
Shoot him again!
Shazam
[Hands back the FIRST ROBBER'S gun]
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Here, here. Go. Both of you! Come on. Go to town.
[The ROBBERS fire multiple rounds into SHAZAM, every one of them falling uselessly to the floor]
Freddy
Wait, wait, wait. We still don't know if the suit is bulletproof, or if you are. Shoot him in the face.
Shazam
Shoot me in the face! In the face?!
[Both ROBBERS shoot SHAZAM in the face and, once again, the bullets ricochet off him]
[To FREDDY]
It kinda tickles!
[Turning back to robbers]
You're dead!
[SHAZAM throws both ROBBERS through the store's plate glass window]
Clip 4
In the aftermath of their crime fighting, Freddy and Shazam do some heart-to-heart talking about their relationship as foster brothers.
Freddy
You know, I like you like this. This is so cool. I mean... no offence but, like... like at first you were kind of like the opposite of how... of how Darla is...
Shazam
A d*ck?
Freddy
Your words. Not mine. But yeah.
Clip 5
Freddy and Shazam have returned home but upon entering their bedroom, they wake up Darla who is a little confused by the sudden presence of a stranger in her room.
Darla
Freddy?
[SHAZAM hyperspeeds to where DARLA is sitting up in bed and covers her mouth with his hand]
Freddy
Hey, covering her mouth like you're gonna kidnap her is not gonna make her less scared, okay?
Shazam
Darla? It's me. It's Billy. I know I don't look like me. A wizard made me look like -
Freddy
Maybe don't start with the wizard 'cos that's gonna make her more confused.
Shazam
Some old guy brought me to a temple and he made me say Shazam!
[SHAZAM transforms back into the fourteen-year-old BILLY]
Clip 6
Thaddeus has issues with his father and brother. And he walks in to their boardroom during a meeting with other employees of Sivana Industries to settle a score.
Sid
Don't make me throw you outta here, Thad. You don't need to make a scene.
Thaddeus
Oh, brother... The scene... has only just begun.
[THADDEUS throws SID the Magic 8 Ball from his childhood]
Ask that if you can throw me out.
Sid
What?
Thaddeus
Ask the ball if you're man enough to throw me out of this room.
Sid
[Begins to laugh]
Thaddeus
Let me spoil it for you.
[THADDEUS picks SID up and throws him through the boardroom window]
Clip 7
In order to leave school, Freddy and Billy have to get past the security guard. By transforming into Shazam, Billy is able to pull the wool over Officer Moran's eyes.
Shazam
This is the... the security guard that all the kids admire so much.
Security Guard
[Makes approving and humble noises]
Freddy
That's the other one. This one sucks.
Clip 8
Discovering that you can float in mid-air is exciting. Right? But it's probably best not to discover that on the overpass of a highway.
Shazam
[Laughs excitedly]
I'm FLOATING!
[SHAZAM is struck by a truck and flies off the overpass into the path of other vehicles below]
Clip 9
It's time to give his foster siblings the same superhero powers he has in order to defeat Thaddeus.
Shazam
All hands on deck.
[The others take hold of the magic staff]
Say my name.
Others
BILLY!
Shazam
No. Not my name. No. The... say the name that I say to turn into this guy.
Others
SHAZAM!
[They are transformed into superhero versions of themselves
