August and him are chatting when August asks a strange question "What's your favorite Disney Movie?" and says his is Tangled. Wille responds "Encanto, hands down", August said "That was the one I never watched, what is it about?" Wille responds "it's about a family who has been gifted with a miracle in the form of a magical candle, they all receive magical powers except one Mirabel. Mirabel is treated differently than the rest of the family because of this. However their miracle is dying, and they suspect Mirabel has something to do with it. But eventually they realize that the miracle is inside all of them and isn't the magic". August says "That's the one with that song what is it called...Something like We don't say Bruno's name?" Wilhelm responds "It's we don't talk about Bruno, and that's not my favorite song from the movie", August asks "What is?" Wilhelm responds "My favorite song from Encanto is Waiting On A Miracle which is Mirabel's solo, I feel it has to do a lot with my life". "You should watch it with Carl" Wille says, "I think I will" says August

August turns on his computer and begins sharing his screen with Carl on a call. "What are we watching dad" said the Governing Mayor. "Carl we are watching Encanto" said August. "I've seen it with Wille before but I'll watch it again" says Carl. And they begin hearing Abuela tell the story of the miracle to Little Mirabel. Her not getting her gift. They see Antonio's ceremony and the family picture which Mirabel is not included in. That prompts her to sing:

"Don't be upset or mad at all

Don't feel regret or sad at all

Hey, I'm still a part of the family Madrigal

And I'm fine, I am totally fine

I will stand on the side as you shine

I'm not fine, I'm not fine

I can't move the mountains

I can't make the flowers bloom

I can't take another night up in my room

Waiting on a miracle

I can't heal what's broken

Can't control the morning rain or a hurricane

Can't keep down the unspoken invisible pain

Always waiting on a miracle, a miracle

Always walking alone

Always wanting for more

Like I'm still at that door longing to shine

Like all of you shine

All I need is a change

All I need is a chance

All I know is I can't stay on the side

Open your eyes, open your eyes, open your eyes

I would move the mountains

Make new trees and flowers grow

Someone please just let me know, where do I go?

I am waiting on a miracle, a miracle

I would heal what's broken

Show this family something new

Who I am inside, so what can I do?

I'm sick of waiting on a miracle, so here I go

I am ready, come on, I'm ready

I've been patient, and steadfast, and steady

Bless me now as you blessed us all those years ago

When you gave us a miracle

Am I too late for a miracle?"

August can see why Wille likes the song, it does fit his life and is quite catchy. Then the cracks begin forming in the house, Mirabel seeks answers in Bruno's room, and what she finds causes her to ask about Bruno's visions this prompts the song We don't talk about Bruno. After meeting Bruno, and Making up with Isabella, A fight causes the house to collapse. And then they realize that the miracle is inside of them. The magic is restored and the movie ends.

"That was a good movie" said August. "I know" said Carl. "It won an academy award" Carl continues.
