[Roberto gathers up Pietro onto his shoulder after dinner, preparing to leave.]
Roberto: Alright, Pietro, time to head home.
Bruno: Let me walk you out.
Antonio: Can I come too?
[Meanwhile, Julieta searchers the room unsuccessfully for Meribel and Isabella. She then turns to Abuela.]
Julieta: Mama, do you know where Meribel and Isabella went?
Abuela: I saw them heading towards their room. Meribel mentioned something about getting ready for bed.
[Julieta thanks her and heads towards their room. Along the way, she's stopped by the sight of Isabella's wheelchair abandoned in the middle of the hall. Puzzled, she listens and hears Meribel's voice coming from up on the roof. She looks up to see both girls in their nightgowns, sitting on makeshift blanket mattresses.]
Julieta: Meribel, what are you two doing up there?
Meribel: We're sleeping up here tonight! Don't worry, I won't let Isabella fall off. Unless she starts snoring super loud.
[Isabella jokingly pretends to be mortified, and Julieta shakes her head with a mix of exasperation and amusement.]
Julieta: Just be careful with her, Meribel.
Meribel: I will, Mama.
[Julieta bids them good night before heading back to the dining room to help clean up.]
