Let's pick up the pace, shall we?

It's a very important night.

Doa Paloma, this message

just came from the palace.

Let me see that.

"Chancellor Esteban is sick
and will be unable to attend

the Feast of
Friendship tonight."

That's terrible.

No, Carlos, it's wonderful.

It means I'll be the only
representative of Avalor at the feast.

So when I work out
a new trade agreement

with the visiting ambassadors,
everyone will see

that I am the most important
person in the kingdom.

But I thought Princess Elena was...

She may be the ruler,

but I'll be the one
who gets things done,

and I will finally get
the respect I deserve.

I respect you, Hortensia.

Pablo Agama.

Ahem. They call me
Doa Paloma now.

Well, doa,

you've come a long way
from our little village.

I remember when you didn't
have a single coin to your name.

What do you want, Pablo?

To make you a lot of money.

Legend says the masks are magical.

Experience says you're just
saying that to charge extra.

And you can charge
your customers extra.

That's for the masks,

and that's to get lost.

Nice doing business with you...

Doa Paloma.

Hang these masks on
the wall, will you, Carlos?

Come on now, open up.

That's a royal order.

Esteban, you have to
take your medicine.

It'll make you feel better.

Here comes the jaquin,

flying into his nest.

You feel better already?

Ay, no, but I need to
get ready for the Feast of...

...Friendship.

No, you need to get your rest,

and we already told
Doa Paloma you can't make it.

What?! But
you do not understand.

This new trade agreement
will mean more jobs

and opportunities for
the people of Avalor.

The ambassadors must...

they must...

They must sign it.

But they do not always get along.

Only someone with
my powers of persuasion

will ensure that
the night is a success.

If it's this important to the kingdom,

I'll fill in for you.

But they can be very difficult.

Don't worry, cousin.

I remember how my father
made deals with his allies.

I know exactly what to do.

Trust me. I won't let you down.

Will that gate be erected
in time for the feast?

Yes, and only invited
guests will be allowed in.

Doa Paloma.

Too late.

Princess Elena, so nice
of you to stop by unannounced.

But I must finish
preparing for the feast.

That's why I'm here.

I'm filling in for Esteban.

This is a disaster.

Won't the ambassadors be impressed

that the crown princess
is at the feast?

That's the problem.

This was supposed to be my triumph.

If Elena's here,
nobody will even notice me.

Thanks for stepping in, but I
have it all under control.

So you can go back to the palace
and do whatever it is you do.

There's no need for you to sit around

with a bunch of adults
talking about trade.

But I love talking about trade.

I made a trade deal with the
kingdom of Satu, remember?

Beginner's luck.

And the feast will be so boring.

That's why I brought some great ideas

to make the feast
less boring and more festive.

But the feast is already perfect

the way it is.

I've spent months

planning this party
down to the last detail.

See?
- It's very nice.

But kind of formal,

and stuffy, don't you think?

No, I do not think.

We have to show them who we
are, and how we celebrate.

We need to make them
feel like one of the family.

No, we don't.

We need them to sign a trade agreement.

Whenever my father
hosted visitors at the palace,

his motto was, treat
your guests like family,

and you'll earn their loyalty.

A lovely sentiment.

If only it were true.

If she's not going to leave,

I have to make sure
she doesn't get in my way.

But how?

Could...
- I've got it.

How about this, princess?

I'll throw the party my way out here,

you do it your way back there,
