MAYA, VOICE-OVER:
Miguel says that
I always have a plan.

But sometimes my plan
needs a little...

ha ha!

extra planning.

[Panting]

Ta-Da!

¡Mama!

I got a 94
on my math test!

Un momento, Maya.

Oh, no, I lost my count!

Oops.
Um, sorry, Mamá.

It's OK, sweetheart.

Now, what
were you saying?

No es importante.

You seem busy.

Sí. Doing inventory
is hard work.

Papi, I wanted to
tell you about--

I'm sorry, mijita.
I can't talk right now.

I need to go
find the duct tape.

Well, when
will you be done?

[Sigh]

End of the week.

Then we have to
clean out the stock room,

order supplies,
and get inspections.

Oh, no, no, no!
Down, guys! No!

No, no. Down!

Down, I said. Down.

[Yipping]

MAYA:
Miguel! Miguel!

It's
such a nice day,

I thought we could
plant flowers
in the courtyard.

Uh-oh.

Sorry, hermanita,

but I need to finish
my social studies report,

and then I have
soccer practice.

Oh, right, I forgot.

Abuelita!

ABUELA: ¡Estoy en la cocina!

Hola, Abuelita.
I--

¡Ay! So much work to do!

I have to make
these tamales

for my friend's
granddaughter's quinceañera.

Maya, do you know
I haven't updated
my home page in 3 weeks?

Maybe we can do that
together soon, eh?

[Sigh]

OK, Abuelita.

Ay!

Oh, oh, Paco guapo.

Ooh. Ooh.

Hi, Paco.

Hey, do you feel like
learning some new words?

Awk! Paco busy.

Paco busy.

You, too?
What are you
busy with?

Preening.
Pretty bird!

Awk! Pretty bird!

Ooh!

Paco late! Awk!

Awk!

Ay, ay, ay.

Everyone
in this family
is so busy!

Psst...Miguel?

Ohh.

MAN ON TV:
Overworked? Overstressed?

Do you need a vacation?

Ahh!

We've got the answer.

Whether you need relaxation,

time with someone special,

or fun-filled family adventure,

Yucca Summit State Forest
is the place for you.

¡Eso es!

Uh-oh.

No, no, no, no, Maya.

MAYA: So,
how is everyone?

Busy, I bet.

Uh-oh.
Something's coming.

I can feel it.

Mamá and Papi, you've been
working really hard, right?

Mmm...

Mmm...

hmm?

hmm?

Miguel, between school
and sports practice,

you never get a break.

Hmm?

And, Abuelita,

with helping all your friends
and volunteering,

I'm surprised
you get any sleep at all.

Hmm?

Yes, Maya,
we're all very busy.

So busy that
we're forgetting something

that you always say
is very, very, very important.

Family time!

Time to just relax
and be together.

Sí. Between the store
and errands

and making
dinner,

I know I've been
going nonstop.

Well, hold onto your hats

because I know just
what we should do.

Go camping!

You mean like at a spa
or something like that?

No, Miguel, outside!

You'll love it!

There's mountain-biking...

and boating and fishing...

and rock-climbing
and spelunking.

Cool! What's spelunking?

Beats me.

We'll ask Theo later.

MAYA: But Papi can
play his guitar
by the campfire.

Abuelita can
tell her stories
about Mexico,

Mamá can make
s'mores,

and we can all have
lots of family time!

We've never been
camping before.

That is a great idea,
Maya.

We'll all go together
this summer!

Summer?

I meant this weekend!

Mmm, mijita,

a trip takes planning
and organizing and packing.

There's no way Papi and I
can get ready so soon.

[Sigh]

Miguel! Miguel!
Didn't you ask--

Oopsie!

Unh!

Huh? What?

I'm asleep!

Well, not anymore.

I couldn't sleep,
either.

I keep thinking
about this
camping trip.

Here's your water.

[Chuckles]

Oh...can I go
back to sleep, Maya?

No, wait!

What if someone else
organizes it?

Someone who
always knows
where everything is...

someone who is
always on time...

someone who
Mamá and Papi call

the brother I can
always count on.

He's the brother
she can always
count on.

You mean me?

How do you always know
what I'm thinking?

It's that twin thing
again.

Oh, Miguel,
if we do the planning,

I know Mamá and Papi
will say yes.

I just know it!

OK.

¡Oh, gracias,
Miguelito!

¡Gracias!

Do you want
a bedtime story?

No.

A lullaby?

Big no.

Can I
tuck you in?

Good night, Maya.

Oh, thank you,
Miguel!

You are the best
brother ever!

[Crash]

Now, remember,
we'll be out
in the woods,

so there won't be
much stuff.

That means

we'll have to bring
everything we need
ourselves.

[Crash]

Well, I think
that's everything.

Good work!

[Footsteps]

[Laughing]

MAYA AND MIGUEL: Surprise!

ROSA:
Maya, Miguel!

¿Qué es eso?

You said
it was a good idea
to go camping.

Yes, but, um--

You didn't have time
to pack and organize.

Did you--

So we packed
and organized.

Directions,
trail maps,

and weather reports
right off the Internet.

Ohh.

[Crash]

[Laughing]

Well, I guess
if you kids
did all this,

you must really
want to go.

We do! We do!

We do!

¡Bueno! Ha ha ha!

Tomorrow,
we'll be on our way.

MAYA: OK,
that's everything!

Come on, everybody,
jump in.

SANTIAGO:
OK, now, make sure
you buckle up!

Awk!

Sheesh!

MAYA: You're sitting
on my tennis racket.

MIGUEL:
Move over!

MIGUEL: Hey, Papi,
it kind of smells
funny in here.

Mmm. I love the smell
of wet dog!

[Sniff]

[Coughs]

Don't worry,
Miguelito,

it's only
a 5-hour drive.

Aww...

ROSA:
Look at that lake!

PACO: ¡Sí, lago!

I've never seen
trees this big!

¡Sí, árboles!

ABUELA: Niños, miren,

there's snow
on those mountains!

¡Montañas!

It still smells
like wet dog
in here.

¡Perro mojado!
¡Perro mojado!

[Grunt]

[Car horn honking]

Can we go
rock climbing, Papi?

SANTIAGO: We should
probably set up
the tent first.

No problem.

Piece of cake!

Sí, torta.

Can someone please
hand me the poles?

Poles?

MIGUEL: Oops.
Forgot the poles.

Ohh!

Ha! There we go.

I think
if we're real careful,

it might just hold up
for one night.

[Whispering]
I say we all go
for a boat ride!

Yeah!
And catch some fish
for dinner!

Come on, Mamá!
Abuelita!

[Voice echoes]

MAYA: Ohh!

Awk!

[Whimper]

ROSA: Oh,
what a gorgeous lake!

Awk! ¡Sí, lago!

Oh, Papi, this is
gonna be so much fun.

I bet we're gonna
catch a hundred fish
for dinner.

[Gasp]

Hey, I got a bite!

Whoa! Ho ho!

Look at you, Maya!
You got a big one!

Reel him in!

[All talking at once]

SANTIAGO: Careful!

MIGUEL:
You can do it, Maya.
Grab it!

[Shouting]

SANTIAGO: Sit down!

No, Maya, don't stand--

[All talking at once]

Awk! Uh-oh!

Sorry I lost the fish,
Miguel.

Oh, it's all right.

What's important
is that, uh...

no one drowned.

ROSA: Mmm. I need
some dry clothes.

Where are
my clothes, mijita?

They're in that
blue suitcase.

But all
that's in here

is my favorite dress
and a pair of heels?

That's right.

I packed the clothes
that you and Papi say

are for
special occasions.

ROSA: You packed
Papi's best suit?

This is a special
occasion, right?

SANTIAGO: Whoa! Aah!

Does my tie look straight?

PACO: Ay, ay, ay!

Gracias.

Let's
make a campfire,

and maybe
our wet clothes
will dry out later.

Don't worry
about the fish.

We have lots of
canned goods
for dinner.

And I'll make my tortillas

like my abuela did
when we went camping!

Let's go collect wood
for the fire.

Yeah, come on!

I bet I can get
the most wood!

[Growl]

[Gasp]

[Chirping]

Oh, no. I mean...

nice, nice skunk.
Nice skunk.

Sweet little skunk--
Aah!

Are you sure
you're OK, Mamá?

Just a little smelly,
that's all.

Awk!
Tortillas here!

Yeah!

Ah, nothing like
Abuela's tortillas

cooked
on an open fire!

Sí.

Now let's open
some beans.

Can someone please
give me the can opener?

Can opener?

No can opener?

Uh-oh.

Ah, don't worry.

These tortillas
will be delicious
all by themselves.

And we have s'mores
for later.

Bueno.
Now may I have
the plates, please?

I know we brought plates.

I packed them myself.

They're right...here.

ROSA: Pass
the marshmallows, please.

Papi, do you think
you could play a song
for us on your guitar?

Sí, Papi, please?

I am way ahead of you.

Um, now, let's see.
How about this one?

♪ Y desde aquella noche ♪

♪ No he podido dormir ♪

♪ Le pedi al árbolito-- ♪

[Coyotes howling]

[All scream]

OK, everybody,

so let's get
a good night's sleep.

Buenas noches.

♪ Friends all
know my name ♪

♪ La, la, la,
la, la, la ♪

♪ La, la ♪

Good night,
Paco!

Aww. Good night, Paco.

[Laughing]

[Thunder]

[Sniff]

[Snoring]

Miguel,
do you hear that?

Yeah.
It must be Papi.

Maybe we can
roll him over.

It's not me.

It's not me.

Well, don't look at me.

Then where is
that horrible noise
coming from?

I'll go look.

Me, too!

It's a big,
old bear.

Boy, he must
really be tired.

Let's back away
just to be safe.

We don't want
to disturb him.

[Gasp]

[All shouting]

Hold on!

Come on, hurry!

Aah!

Hold on!

SANTIAGO: Whoa!

Everyone,
get in the van, quick!

See, this
isn't so bad.

At least you can't
hear the bear

with all the rain
coming down.

Sure!

Good
thing!

Nothing like
the smell of wet dog.

Awk! P.U.

Let's just try
and get some sleep, OK?

[Whispering]
This trip isn't
going so well.

I was just thinking
the same thing.

Maya will be
so disappointed.

[Sobs]

And so, Maya,
even though we know

you wanted to
have a big, fun
family-time weekend,

Papi and I
just think

it would be
the best thing to
just go home early.

Please, oh,
pretty please, Mamá,

we can't give up yet.

I know everything
hasn't gone perfectly,

but...um, remember
the bright side.

[Sigh]

Help us out, Maya.

What's
the bright side?

Well, the bright side
is that, um,

uh...it can't get
any worse, right?

Maya, I know
how hard you tried,

but we're all wet
and hungry and tired.

Yeah. We'll try
another trip this summer.

Can we please just
have breakfast first?

You know, one last meal
out in the fresh air!

I can make
more tortillas.

There are lots of
marshmallows left.

OK. Fair enough.

We'll have breakfast,
then we'll pack up.

Miguel, I have a plan,
but I need your help.

Maya, yo te conozco.

Please,

my only, favorite
brilliant, kind,
handsome twin brother.

Ohh. It's not working
this time, Maya.

This is really
important, Miguel.

Unless we get some good,
quality family time,

then we'll all
go home more tired
and stressed out

than before!

Please?

We have to do
something fun
before we go home.

Well, I do have
a trail map I got
off the Internet.

It says there's
a great nature hike.

Great idea, Miguel.

It's the perfect way
to save our family trip!

MAYA:
Mamá! Papi! Abuela!

How would you like
to go on a nature trail?

Oh, please,
please, please!

It'll be so much fun
for the whole family.

I thought we were
going to leave.

Please, before we go,
just one little hike?

Please, please?

Well, I guess
it couldn't hurt.

[Squawking]

OK, Maya, but if
it starts to rain,

we have to come
right back.

Ay, ay, ay!

Come on, everyone!
This way!

Well, Maya,
this was a good idea.

This trail
is beautiful.

Look at the mountains.

¡Montañas!

And all
the beautiful trees!

¡Árboles!

I think maybe
you saved

our family-time
camping trip
after all!

And the sun
even came out!

[Bird squawking]

OK, everybody,
it's really
getting late.

So I think we should
head back now.

Which way
do we go, Maya?

Well, let's see,
it's, um, this way...

or, uh, wait a minute.
Maybe it's, um...

this way, yeah.

Or it could be
this way.

I don't know.

This doesn't
look right to me.

Are we lost?

Nobody's saying
we're lost, Mamá.

Are we lost?

Uh, no, no,
we're not lost.

We're--We're
just in a--

Awk! We're lost!
We're lost!

Papi, let me
see the map, please.

Hmm.

They must have
changed the trail.

What are we
going to do?

It's going to
get dark in a while.

Maybe we could
follow the North Star.

I--I saw that
in a movie once.

Except the stars
are not out
now, Rosa.

Well, moss grows
on the north side
of a tree, doesn't it?

We could use that
to find our direction.

That's a good idea, Miguel,
but there is no moss here.

Oh, yeah.

Well, the nearest
I can tell,

we came
from this direction.

So let's head that way

and see if we see
any familiar landmarks.

Good idea.
Come on, kids.

Oh, no!

Aww.

Unh!

[Grunting]

Isn't this
the same place
we started from?

SANTIAGO: Huh?

Oh. It sure
looks that way.

All this time,
we have been
going in a circle?

Ay, ay, ay!

I'm soaked.

I'm tired.

I'm hungry.

Well, at least
we're not lost.

[Thunder]

SANTIAGO: Come on,
in here, everyone.

[Sigh]

I just messed
everything up.

No, honey,
you didn't mess up.

Your mother's right.

Your heart was
in the right place.

Oh, Maya, mijita...

[Thunder]

ABUELA:
And then Diego sprung out

from behind the rock--

and remember,
he had the bear skin
over his head--

and he roared
a great roar,

and the banditos
screamed in fear
and ran away,

leaving all the silver
to Diego!

[Laughter]

Oh, I haven't had
this much fun
in a long time.

Was it worth
being chased
by a skunk?

And having the tent
blow away in the storm?

And sleeping
in a van?

Awk! Wet dog!
Wet dog!

¡Sí! This was
a great idea, Maya!

Just what
we all needed!

And now you kids
will have
even more stories

to tell your
grandchildren, eh?

Ha ha ha!

[Laughing]

MAYA: Look, everybody!

[All cheering]

There it is.

It was right there
the whole time!

Last one there's
a wet dog!

Me first! Me first!

You know,
you always
looked great

in a suit and tie.

Oh, Paco,
I can't wait

until we come back
this summer.

Awk! Paco stay home!
Paco stay home!

Awk! Paco stay home!
