"Why would embracing Isabela do anything?" Mirabel snapped. She and Bruno were hiding on the second floor, looking over at Isabela's door.

Bruno shrugged. "I dunno. We got a family miracle. How do you help a family miracle? You hug a sister."

"okay seems easy enough," Camilo said,

"Yeah I could hug Jullieta or Pepa pretty easily," Bruno added.

"Not when you have HER as a sister," Isabella and mirabel said insink.

The two ducked down as Camilo went by downstairs calling for Mirabel, his powers making him shapeshift involuntarily.

"I think we're running out of time here." Bruno told her awkwardly.

"Ya think, I look like that baby that was born 3 moths ago down the road!" Camilo Said. 

"It's not gonna work. She won't hug me EVER, okay? She hates me. Also, I don't know if you heard, I ruined her proposal, plus-" She began to rant.

Bruno huffed. "Mirabel. You're missing the point. The fate of the family it's- it's not up to her, it's up to you. You're exactly what this family needs. You just have to see it." He smiled.

"By yourself, after I leave." He quickly added, running back to his tunnel.

Mirabel looked over at bruno he was holding one arm tight with a sheepish smile across his face.

"You're afraid Abuela will see you." She deadpanned.

"Yep." He hesitated. "Hey, after you save the Miracle...come visit?"

Abuela smacked herself on the head.

Mirabel smiled. "After I save the Miracle I'm bringing you home."

pepa smiled.

Bruno smiled weakly before heading back into his tunnel.

Taking a deep breath, Mirabel headed into Isabela's room.

The whole place was filled with flowers, mainly pink. "Isa? Hey... I know we've had our...issues, but I'm...ready to be a better...sister...to you. So we should just...hug. Let's hug it out." She called to the empty room.

Slowly, the bed came down from where it was being held up by vines. "Hug it...out?" Isabela hissed, sitting on the bed.

Augustine's eyes widened in horror of her own daughters in such a bad mood seeing each other.

"Luisa can't lift an empanada. Mariano's nose looks like a smashed papaya." She sneered. "HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND!?"

Luisa smile faded.

Mirabel smiled nervously. "Isa...I sense that you're upset. And you know what cures being upset? A warm embrace!" She opened her arms.

Vines crossed in an X shape. "Get. Out." Isabela pointed to the door. A flower grew out of the vines and covered Mirabel's mouth.

"Touchy," Camilo coughed.

Isabela paced. "Everything was perfect. Abuela was happy. The family was happy. You wanna be a better sister? Apologize for ruining my life." She hissed.

Mirabel stared her down.

Smirking, Isabela crossed her arms and looked down on her. "Go on. Apologize."
