[the next morning everyone was preparing for breakfast]
MIRABEL:Dolores, hey.You know, out of all my older cousins, you're, like, my favorite cousin, so I feel like I can talk to you about anything, ergo you can talk to me about anything.Like the problem with the magic last night that no one seemed to worry about, but maybe you heard about that maybe we should know about.
Moana:Yeah, it's kind of urgent.By the way have you seen Camilo anywhere?
[Dolores shakes her head]
Félix:Camilo! Stop pretending you're Dolores so you can have seconds.
[Camilo transforms back into himself]
Camilo:Worth a shot. Ah! (GRUNTS)
Félix:(GROANS)
Dolores:The only ones worried about the magic is you guys and the rats talking in the walls.Oh, and Luisa, I heard her eye twitching all night. (SQUEAKS)
[Luisa carries the table]
Luisa:There we go.
Moana:[to Mirabel] How can you hear someone's eye twitching all night?
Mirabel:That's Dolores for ya.
Abuela:Everyone, to the table! Let's go, let's go.
[Everyone sits down.Camilo opens Moana's chair for her to sit beside him]
Camilo:Here Moana.
Moana:*blushes* Aw thank you, Camilo.
Mirabel:Luisa.
ABUELA: Family.We are all thankful for Antonio's wonderful new (GRUNTS) Gift.
Antonio:I told them to warm up your seat.
Moana:Awww.
ABUELA:Thank you, Toñito.I'm sure today we'll find a way to put your blessings to good use.
Mirabel:(SOFTLY) Luisa, Dolores says you're totally freaking out.Any chance you maybe know something about last night with the magic...(GASPS) You do!
Moana:Mirabel, shhh!
ABUELA: Mirabel! If you can't pay attention, I will help you.
Mirabel:Oh, actually...
ABUELA:Casita!
(GRUNTING)
ABUELA:As I was saying, we must never take our miracle for granted, so today we will work twice as hard.
Mirabel:Mm-hmm. I will help Luisa.
ABUELA:Stop.
(GRUNTING)
ABUELA:First, an announcement.I've spoken to the Guzmáns about Mariano's proposal to Isabela.
Dolores, do we have a date?
Dolores:Tonight. He wants five babies.
Moana:Oh.
(ISABELA GULPS)
ABUELA:Wonderful!Such a fine young man with our perfect Isabela will bring a new generation of magical blessings and make both of our families stronger.
[Camilo shape shifts into Mariano and makes kissing sounds at Isabela to tease her.Isabela hits Camilo in the face with her flowers as he transformed back to himself Moana just giggled]
ABUELA:Okay. Our community is counting on us.
La Familia Madrigal!
ALL: La Familia Madrigal!
Mirabel:La Familia Madrigal!Luisa, hey. What?
[Mirabel accidentally bumps into Isabela]
Mirabel:(GRUNTS) Sorry.
Isabela:What is your problem?
MIRABEL: Hey! Luisa, hold up!
[After breakfast was over Moana spent the rest of the day helping the Madrigals clean up for the Guzmáns.While Camilo was doing his chores he listened to Moana as she began to sing to herself while sweeping the floors.Camilo couldn't believe how beautiful Moana's voice was, and how she spun around with her hair flipping from left to right.]
(MOANA HUMMING)
Camilo:(SPEAKS SPANISH) oh dios mio ella es un angel.
[Meanwhile with Mirabel and Luisa]
(Luisa lifts church)
(BELLS RINGING)
SEÑORA OZMA: Luisa, can you re-route the river?
Luisa:Will do.
Man:Luisa, the donkeys got out again.
LUISA: On it!
(GRUNTS)
Mirabel:Luisa! (YELPS)Wait a second (GROANS) You gotta tell me about the magic.What's going on? What are you hiding?
Luisa:Nothing. Just got a lot of chores, so maybe you should just go home.
Luisa, my house is leaning to the...
[Luisa kicks house]
Mirabel:Dolores said your eye was twitching, and it never twitches.Something's making you nervous.
Luisa:Hey, move. You're gonna make me drop a donkey.
Mirabel:Luisa, will you just... (SCOFFS)Just tell me what it is.
Luisa:There's nothing to tell.
Mirabel:You're obviously worried about something.
Luisa, if you know what's hurting the magic and it gets worse, 'cause you won't tell me what's wrong...
Luisa:(LOUDLY) Nothing's wrong!Wow, uh, sorry.
That... That snuck out there. What I meant was, um...Why would anything be wrong?I'm totally fine. The magic's fine.Luisa's fine. I'm totally not nervous.
Mirabel:Your eye is doing the thing...
🎵I'm the strong one I'm not nervous I'm as tough as the crust Of the Earth is
Mirabel:Okay.
LUISA: I move mountains🎵
I move churches
And I glow 'cause I know What my worth is🎵
Of course, I mean... Hey, where are you going?
🎶I don't ask How hard the work is
Got a rough Indestructible surface
Diamonds and platinum
I find 'em I flatten 'em🎶
I take what I'm handed I break what's demanded🎶
But under the surface I feel berserk🎵
🎵As a tightrope walker In a three-ring circus
Under the surface Was Hercules ever like
"Yo, I don't wanna fight Cerberus"
(SCREAMS, WHIMPERS)
🎵Under the surface
I'm pretty sure I'm worthless If I can't be of service
A flaw or a crack
🎵The straw in the stack That breaks the camel's back
What breaks the camel's back?🎶
It's pressure Like a drip, drip, drip
That'll never stop🎶
Whoa
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip Till you just go pop
🎵
Whoa
Give it to your sister Your sister's older
Give her all the heavy things We can't shoulder
Who am I If I can't run with the ball?
🎶If I fall to pressure Like a grip, grip, grip
And it won't let go
🎶Whoa
Pressure like A tick, tick, tick🎶
Till it's ready to blow
Whoa
Give it to your sister Your sister's stronger
See if she can hang on A little longer
🎵Who am I If I can't carry it all?
If I falter
Under the surface
I hide my nerves And it worsens🎶
🎵I worry Something is gonna hurt us
Under the surface🎵
The ship doesn't swerve
As it heard How big the iceberg is
🎶Under the surface I think about my purpose
Can I somehow preserve this? Line up the dominos
A light wind blows You try to stop it topplin'🎵
🎶But on and on it goes But wait
If I could shake
The crushing weight Of expectations🎵
Would that free
Some room up for joy
Or relaxation?🎵
Or a simple pleasure Instead we measure
🎶This growing pressure Keeps growing
Keep going 'Cause all we know is
Pressure like A drip, drip, drip🎵
That'll never stop
Whoa
🎶Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip Till you just go pop
Whoa
Give it to your sister It doesn't hurt
And see if she can handle Every family burden🎶
Watch as she buckles And bends but never breaks
🎶No mistakes
Just pressure Like a grip, grip, grip
And it won't let go🎶🎵
Whoa
🎶Pressure like A tick, tick, tick
Till it's ready to blow
Whoa
Give it to your sister And never wonder
If the same pressure Would have pulled you under🎵
Who am I If I don't have what it takes?
🎶No cracks No breaks
No mistakes No pressure🎶
(PANTING)
[Mirabel hugs Luisa]
(SIGHS)I think you're carrying way too much... (GRUNTS)
[Luisa picks Mirabel off the ground and hugs her tightly]
Luisa:Maybe I overdo it.
Mirabel:Yep.
Luisa:Um... There is something you should know.Last night, when you and Moana saw the cracks,I felt weak.
Mirabel:(HESITATING) What?
MAN: Luisa! The donkeys!
Luisa:On it!
Mirabel:Wait, wait, wait. What do you mean?What do you think's hurting the magic?
Luisa:Don't know, but I heard the grown-ups once.
Before Tío Bruno left, he had, like, some terrible vision about it.
Mirabel:Tío Bruno? What was in his vision?
Luisa:No one knows. They never found it.
But if something's wrong with the magic, start with Bruno's tower.Find that vision.
Mirabel:Wait! How do you find a vision?What am I even looking for?
(DONKEY BRAYS)
Luisa:If you find it, you'll know.But be careful.That place is off limits for a reason.
[Cut to Mirabel going to Bruno's room]
