[Grunting]
[Crash]
But I didn't
order a llama.
This is a pet store,
not a petting zoo.
[Puppies yelping]
Aww.
Step, ball, change.
Step, ball, change.
Step, ball, change.
Step, ball, change.
Aah!
Whoops.
Sorry.
[Squawk]
[Squawk]
Paco, ven acá.
I just want to cut your nails.
[Squawk]
Ugh!
Paco, get over here.
Nail fine.
Nail fine.
No, Paco.
Nails perfect.
Están perfectas.
Mayday!
Aah!
Ha ha ha!
Oh!
Ohh...
Ow! I can't wait
to get home
and do absolutely
nothing.
Maya, what about
the school paper?
We're doing
layout today.
Oh, no.
I forgot.
And then we're
going to do
homework
together.
Remember?
Oh, yeah.
And don't forget
our social studies
report for next week.
You know, for
a bunch of kids
we sure have a lot
of stuff to do.
And you promised
to help me
organize
my closet.
Oh, OK.
Gosh, sometimes
I wish I were
a grownup.
They have it
so easy.
You said it.
Ahh...
Aha!
Mmm...
it's time I look
at the pet store
accounting books.
Aha. Aha.
Finished.
Más rápido, Paco.
Gracias.
What a life!
Hmm...
grownups really
have an easy life.
No, Paco! Stop!
Slow down!
[Squawk]
Come on, Paco.
I still have to
balance the books.
[Squawk]
[Crash]
[Phone rings]
This better be
good news.
Hola.
Rosa, I need you
down at the store
a bit earlier
than expected.
I'll be right down.
[Squawk]
No cut nails.
Están perfectas.
[Crash]
Oh...
Oh!
Oh...
Ah...
Santiago,
what on earth
were you doing with
a llama anyway?
You run a pet store,
not a petting zoo.
I tried to
tell the llama,
but he
wouldn't listen.
Oh...
I'm so tired
from soccer,
I need help
clicking the mouse.
Oohhh...
Oh! I'm so sore
from dance class
it hurts
to write.
Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!
Oh, I'm so tired
I just accidentally
sewed this to
the leg of my pants.
Paco tired, too.
Paco tired,
too.
Yes, Paco.
I'm sure destroying
the curtains
must be exhausting.
[All laughing]
Oh! My back!
[Everyone complaining]
Vengan. I'll bring
out dessert.
All right.
I'm in.
Gracias, Abuela.
Mmm. These desserts
are delicious, Elena.
Sí, deliciosos.
Excellent
dessert.
Ah! What a day.
You kids don't know
how lucky you are
to hang out
and play
all day long.
Papi, we work
really hard.
We have school
and dance class
and sports
and homework
and all kinds
of things.
Yeah. I think it would be
a lot easier
just to play with
a llama all day long.
Ay, Miguelito.
We weren't playing.
It was more like
sumo wrestling.
Come on, papi.
You always say
you have the best
job in the world.
You get to hang out
with animals all day.
Es verdad.
But running a store
is a lot of hard
work, you know.
Well, it can't be
as hard as being a kid.
Ay, hijos.
I don't think
you'll understand
what it's like
to be a parent
until you're older.
¡Eso es!
Let's switch!
¿Cambiar qué?
I don't think
we want to know.
Switch lives.
Hmm?
Miguel and I
will do what
you grownups do,
and you can do
what we kids do.
Just for one day.
Hmm?
Maya, of all your
ideas, this one--
is actually
not that bad.
Running the pet store
will be really cool.
Yeah. And we can look
after the house
and clean up,
and "do the books."
Whatever that means.
Yeah! Let's do it.
Can we, mamá, papi?
Please.
ALL: Please?
I don't know.
It's a lot of
responsibility,
kids.
Abuelita would help,
just in case.
Right?
Sí.
In case of what?
You know, Santiago,
it would be
a nice break.
And a good learning
experience
for Maya and Miguel.
I repeat, in case
of what, Maya?
And you can go to
our Saturday fun club.
In case of what?
And then you would get
to play soccer all day.
I repeat, in case--
¿jugar fútbol? ¡Oh!
Ha ha ha!
¡Gol!
CHILDREN: Yeah!
¡Golazo!
Yeehaw!
Let's do it!
Let's switch.
ALL: Yay!
Wait, wait, wait.
Mamá, would you be
willing to keep
an eye on the kids
for the day?
¿Mis angelitos?
Of course, Rosa.
My pleasure.
Paco wants to switch.
Paco wants to switch.
Bueno, Paco.
You clean the table.
Wow, thanks.
Clean, clean.
[Squawk, squawk]
[Everyone laughing]
Oh! That one
really hurt.
[Snoring]
¡Despierta!
Miguel! Wake up!
Today's the day
we get to be grownups.
Oh! Don't grownups get
to sleep late, Maya?
I don't think so,
Miguel.
Now, come on!
Ahh!
Miguel. Miguel!
All right.
I'll be a grownup.
In 10 more minutes.
Miguel, don't you
want to spend
all day playing
in the pet store?
All right,
all right.
MAYA: Buenos días,
mamá, papi.
What's for breakfast?
I'd like waffles.
And I'd like
oatmeal with banana.
You want us to make
you breakfast?
Sí. Lots of
syrup, please.
Wow. I guess we are
the grownups today.
Ah. You get the oatmeal,
I get the waffles.
[Squawk]
Quiero desayuno.
Paco wants
breakfast, too.
Paco wants
breakfast, too.
Hijos, I think
Paco's hungry.
Come on, kids.
We have to get
to our fun club.
And you two have to
open the store.
Yay!
I can't wait.
We're going to be
the best grownups
you've ever seen.
[Beep beep]
Ah...starting now.
MAYA: Oh, our first day
running the store.
MIGUEL:
Bueno, a trabajar.
Cool.
Niños, this is
not exactly
how your parents
run the store.
Woof, woof.
Paco, you're
not a dog.
Eres un perico.
Oh. Look at this
little one.
He likes me.
Yes, he does.
Maya, be careful
with the puppies.
You know,
sometimes they--
[Puppy peeing]
Oh...
I need to go
change my shirt.
But that's OK.
We're going to have
a great time today.
Yeah, I think I'm going to
change my jeans, too.
So, what is this Saturday
fun club anyway?
We do arts
and crafts.
Arts and crafts?
Cool. Sure beats
cleaning hamster cages.
Aquí es.
[Children screaming]
[Loud music playing]
This is so much
more fun than fun club.
Ready,
set, go!
Run, turtles.
Run!
Run! Run!
Run!
Here, puppy. Catch!
[Puppies yelping]
Paco!
Woof! Woof!
I can't believe
our parents
get to play
like this all day.
Not usually on Saturdays.
It's the busiest day
of the week for them.
How come we're not
busy, then?
You haven't opened
the store yet.
Oh.
Whoops.
Whoops again.
Come back,
puppies.
Here, boys.
It's going to be
a long day, Paquito.
Woof, woof.
You're not
a dog, Paco.
Good morning,
fun clubbers.
Today we're having some
special guests joining us.
Please welcome
Mr. and Mrs. Santos,
who are sitting in
for Maya and Miguel.
Ah!
Welcome, Mr. Santos
and Mrs. Santos.
Or trying
to sit in.
Ah.
You can stand,
you know.
I'm fine.
Now, if everyone would
please stand,
we can get into
our crafts groups.
Oh. Oh.
Ha ha ha!
So, how do you think
the kids are doing?
Where are
your flea collars?
Where do I find
the goldfish?
My hamster's sick.
Parakeet food.
Hamster's sick.
Yes, ma'am.
I will be with you
in a moment.
Paco. Shh.
You're not
a customer.
[Dog barking]
Mrs. Santos,
you're going to love
face painting.
Yeah. I'm going to
put big flowers
on my cheeks.
And I'm going to
do hearts.
Come on, Mrs. Santos.
Try it.
Well, I'm not sure
what to do.
Why don't you make
yourself a cat?
You can add
whiskers, like this.
Oh, that's
great, Kylie.
And a kitty
cat nose.
Here. Over here.
Pass me the green,
please.
How about red?
Where's the black?
No, no, no.
That's too dark.
Go a little lower.
MRS. SANTOS:
Careful.
Are you sure that's
how it works?
Here you go,
Mrs. Santos.
Take a look.
Aah!
Does this come off?
Eventually.
Yeah. In a couple
of days
it will fade away
almost entirely.
A couple of days?
Here you are.
One bag of doggie
biscuits breath mints.
Hey. I didn't
even know
we sold
that stuff.
Ahh...
Finally, we can
play with the puppies.
ABUELA:
Todavía no, niños.
It's feeding time,
and you're running late.
What happens when
you're late
feeding the animals?
[Dogs barking]
[Cats meowing]
[Dog barking]
You had to ask.
Hey, Mr. Santos,
dude, check
this out.
You think that's neat?
Look at this model.
Ready?
Look out!
Look out!
Hurray!
Whoa. That was
chill, Mr. Santos.
Cool.
How did you
do that?
Well, it's quite
simple, actually.
Ahem.
Oh, hi. We were
drawing and, uh...
then things got a
little carried away.
Mr. Santos, you are
the adult here.
You're supposed to
set an example.
Of course.
I'm sorry.
From now on,
you can count on me.
Phew! Some people
never grow up.
All right.
Everyone's fed.
Bueno. Now it's time
to clean the cages.
Clean the cages?
ABUELA: Aha.
Eww!
Eww!
Yuck.
How often do mamá
and papi do this?
Several times a week.
Thank goodness
we're only grownups
for the day.
Hey. Why is
the rabbit
in the guinea
pig cage?
Oh, we forgot to
lock the cage doors!
Ah! Oh!
MIGUEL:
I got these!
Oh!
Aha. I found Harry.
of scrubbing
and it still
wouldn't come off.
You think
that's bad?
I got yelled at
by Ms. Langley.
Stewed meat bonanza
or tofu burger surprise?
¿Este es el almuerzo?
Lunch? Ha ha.
What kind of
meat is in there?
It's the only
meat we have.
Oh, gracias.
I think.
Remind me to
pack lunches
for the kids
on Saturdays.
Mmm...
looks tasty.
Hey, hello.
Hola, everyone.
So, how do you like
being kids,
Mr. and Mrs. Santos?
Um...it's fun.
A lot of fun.
Yeah. And these
cookies you get
for dessert
look great.
Uh-uh, Mr. Santos.
Aren't you always
telling us
to eat our vegetables
and then our dessert?
Vegetables? Is that
what these are?
No. That greenish
stuff is the meat.
The purple and
yellow stuff
are the vegetables.
We caged all
the animals
just in time.
[Sighing]
Ah! Even the wrong ones.
Sorry, Paco.
Aw. Paco gets
no respect.
The workday is over.
Phew!
How do mamá
and papi
do it all
every day?
Oh. Well, at least
we know things
can't get any worse.
[Doorbell rings]
Delivery.
Uh-oh!
Special
delivery.
Llamas? But we
didn't order
any llamas.
[Grunting]
Aah!
[Crash]
So much for
the fun club.
What's next?
You have
soccer practice,
and I have
dance class.
Bueno. That should
be fun, right?
Sí. I used to
love dance class
when I was a girl.
Do I still look
like a cat?
Um...
a little bit.
Ugh.
[Doorbell rings]
Miguel,
look at me.
I have llama
fur all over me.
Getting those things
out of here was like
sumo wrestling.
OK, niños.
Time to go upstairs
and do some
housework.
BOTH: Housework?
Don't we get
any fun?
Don't worry, Miguel.
This should be easy.
Mamá keeps the house
so clean,
there'll be
nothing to do.
Actually, Mayita,
there's one
or two places
I can think of
where your mamá
does not clean.
Ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!
[Gulping]
Yuck!
Who lives
like this?
I guess, ah,
you do.
So we have to
clean this now?
After a whole day
of working in the store?
Oh...
Ah...
[Gasping]
Oh!
Finally! I can't wait
for the scrimmage.
Just to warn you, guys.
When I was your age,
I was as good as
Amado Guevara from
the Metro Stars.
I was so fast, they
called me "the tornado."
Ah! Oh!
Mr. Santos,
we have to
warm up first.
Oh, right.
Of course.
I knew that.
Yay!
And stretch.
Oh!
You're going
the wrong way,
Mrs. Santos.
I keep confusing
my 1, 2, 3s
with my
But Maya said you were
good with numbers.
And the other way.
And the other way!
And the other way.
And the other way!
Ah!
Ah. There.
All done.
Nice work, mijos.
It looks wonderful.
Now we can relax?
I'm afraid not,
mijito.
Eh?
[Grunting]
Hola.
Tito sometimes
comes over
to get help
with his homework
from your mamá.
We have to help
with homework?
Of course.
All grownups help
with homework
when they're asked to.
Well, let's sit
down, Tito,
and get started.
Hey, it can't be
that hard.
Ah!
Ha ha ha!
[Gulping]
When do we get to
play soccer
in this
soccer practice?
Don't worry,
Mr. Santos.
This is our
last lap.
Did I tell you, they
used to call me...
"the tornado"?
Because you sound
like one?
Aah!
Just a little more
warm-up to go.
Ah! Ah...
kick.
I'm doing it.
I'm doing it.
Escusi. Stop. Stop.
Ahem.
Mrs. Santos.
Heh heh.
Gracias, Maya.
Gracias, Miguel.
De nada, Tito.
BOTH: Ah. Phew!
All right, kids.
Are you ready
to make dinner?
BOTH: Dinner?
[Heavy breathing]
Ah! Oh!
¡Ay!
[Unintelligible]
Oh, yeah. Cool
good idea.
Ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!
[Snoring]
Now do we play
soccer?
We decided to
let you sleep,
Mr. Santos.
We played
around you.
Huh?
Ah!
Uh!
Ah!
Are you sure
you're OK,
Mrs. Santos?
Yes, Kylie.
I'm fine.
I can call my mom
to give you a ride home
if you need it.
I'm OK.
Thank you, girls.
Maya, la cena.
The beans need
stirring.
I'm already
stirring the beans
and the sauce.
I'm making dinner
as fast as I can.
Oh!
¡Ay!
How did you guys
get in there?
Miguel, you have
got to stop
bringing your work
home with you.
Ha ha ha!
Ah!
Bueno, niños.
We'll finish up
dinner in here
and bring
these animals
back to the store
before we eat.
I'll leave a note
for mamá and papi
about where we are.
In you go.
And stay there
this time.
I feel like we live
at this pet store.
[Doorbell rings]
Ah!
Gracias, Paco.
Ay, qué día.
BOTH: Mamá, papi.
Ah, niños.
You can have
your lives back.
Uh?
Oh, yeah.
I always knew
my kids worked hard
all day, but now I really
appreciate how much.
No, mamá. You and papi
work hard.
Fun club and dance club
and soccer are easy.
Yeah.
I'm happy
being a kid.
Me, too.
[Knock on door]
Can't they see
we're closed?
Yo voy.
MAYA: So we learned a lot
about each other that day.
And everyone was happy
to have things
back to normal.
[Doorbell rings]
Delivery.
Llamas? We didn't
order any llamas.
ALL: Oh, no.
Aah!
MAYA: Yep. Everything
was back to normal.
