[pigeons cooing]

You're right!

Bird watching is a fun way to
celebrate the end of the week.

[sighs]

I am so ready for the weekend.

Me too, and no homework.
We're free as a bird!

Oh, that's a pretty one,
looks very rare.

[Brooklyn] That's a pigeon.

What about...

[pigeon cooing]

Nope, another pigeon.

Guess I've got a lot to learn
about our feathered friends.

You'll get there.

Mom and I have been bird
watching here since I was a kid.

It's our favorite hangout.

You got that right.

Remember when we celebrated
your th birthday party?

-Right over there?
-Oh, yeah!

Good times.

Until a bird dive-bombed
my cake.

And yes, it was a pigeon.

Oooh!

I love birthdays, and parties,
and birthday parties and...

[gasps] It's my mom's birthday!

Tomorrow!

I can't believe I forgot!

I've never missed her birthday.

Maybe you don't have to.

I'll see if I can do
a switcharoo

with one of the pilots
on tomorrow's LA route.

Really? That would be amazing!

Hey, Beverly. It's Simone.

OK, before you say no,
hear me out.

OK.

Woah!

I got you girl.

OK, roger that.

Yeah, I understand.

Bye.

Pack your bags, girl,
'cause you're going home!

Wha'?

Thank you so much!

I can't wait to see my mom's
face at her surprise party!

What surprise party?

The perfect one
I'm gonna throw her.

But Barbie, we're not getting
into LA

until late tomorrow morning.

That'll give us time to maybe
throw a really good party,

but a perfect one?

Trust me. It'll be a piece
of birthday cake.

♪

[blows candles]

[girls] Happy birthday!

[girls] Hap, hap, hap,
happy birthday!

[girls] Happy birthday!

Did you wish for ponies?

One for me and one for you?

[laughs]

I wished for something
even better.

For all my girls to be here
with me today. [sighs]

But that's just
wishful thinking.

Hey, Mom, try the pancakes!

[gasps] Mom!

Bar...

On second thought, Chelsea,
you first.

Hm, needs some more creamer.

Oh!

[laughing] What are you doing?

It's a new game called
Spin the Birthday Girl!

Huh.

I've never heard of that game.

I'll get the creamer!

Uh, ok, thanks.

Now, I just need a little sugar.

Woah!

And the game ends
with you sitting!

You win, yay!

[gasps] Barbie!

[Margaret] The birthday girl
would like a foot massage.

I can't believe you're all here!

But, what's with the hiding?

I want to surprise Mom by
throwing her a birthday bash,

but she can't know I'm in town,

or it'll ruin everything.

Think you can get your mom
out of the house for a while

so we can set stuff up?

No problem. She's having
a birthday brunch with friends

-and should be leaving...
-[pail clangs]

[gasps]

Oh, quick, hide!

[rumbling sounds]

[laughing]

Oh, it's just you, Honey.

I gotta go! Be good.

[rumbling sounds]

Woah! Ahh!

[laughing]

Oh, I miss you too!

OK. [laughing]

That was a close call with Mom.

We've got to stay alert

if we want to keep her
from finding out I'm home

and spoiling the surprise.

Well, I'm surprised you're home
and I love it!

I mean, your mom,
she'll love it.

Yes. We're all glad you're home,
Barbie.

Especially on your mom's
birthday, but...

[laughs]
Don't tell me you have plans.

You never have plans.

[gasps] Do you have plans?

Just a quiet family dinner.

Your mom said she didn't want
to make a big fuss this year.

Well, now that I'm here,
we've got to do something big.

Then we better get started.
We don't have much time.

Which is why I made a detailed
to-do list on the plane.

That's OK, I've thrown
a zillion parties

and it's about inspiration
and creativity and...

Decorations, music,
food, photography,

birthday cake, a card.

OK, so maybe we do need
a teeny tiny plan.

[laughs]

[car pulling up]

[gasps] It's Mom!

Brunch must have been canceled!

[gasps] Hide!

♪

Hey!

Forgot my phone.

Hate when that happens.

The worst!

Don't look behind the couch!

Better hurry to brunch.

I'll... see you later.

-[door closes]
-Phew!

OK, operation perfect surprise
is still a go.

Party recruits, fall in line!

First up, photos.

Dad, you're in charge
of the pics

and keeping Mom away from
anything party related

until it's time.

Next, birthday card.

Stacie, work your design magic

and keep Mom away from
anything party related

until it's time.
Gotta have some tunes!

Skipper, you're on music duty,

and keeping Mom away
from anything party related

until it's time.

What about me?

Chelsea, you can make a special
birthday crown

for Mom to wear and...

I know.

Keep Mom away from anything
party related until it's time.

[chuckles]

That's right, you've got it.

All that's left are decorations
and cake.

Reporting and ready for duty,
Barbie.

You can help me pick out a cake
from Mom's favorite bakery.

I'm your guy!

[clears throat] I mean, recruit.

The East Coast Roberts
can pick up the decorations.

Great. Just think fun
and festive.

There's a party store
in the valley

that's got everything we need.

We're on it.

OK, recruits,
you've got your orders.

Now go, go, go!

GPS is set for the party store.

[GPS] At the next light,
turn left.

Wait, according to the map
on my phone,

there's an even faster way.

Turn right.

[GPS] Rerouting. Turn left.
Turn left.

Shh. Nobody asked you.

Ignore her.

Baby, I've learned the cold way

that when you ignore
the flight instructions,

you end up in Siberia.

Let's let the woman do her job.

Hm. You've got a point.

There's a ton of freeways here,

the , , ...

The oh, my goodness
the list never ends.

[GPS] Merge right onto freewa.

Whew!
This is trickier than navigating
the flight path into LaGuardia.

But this pilot's getting
the hang of it.

[both] Woah!

[breaks squeal]

[GPS][/i] Caution. Traffic ahead.

[both] We know!

Out of lemon cakes?
How is that...

[exhales]

OK, then I'll...

Sold out of everything?

[exhales]

Thanks anyway.

So, no birthday cake?

Oh, we will have
a birthday cake.

We'll just have to
whip it up ourselves.

Hm. No lemons.

Oh! Kiwi.

We need to get some more light
in here.

On it.

Nice.

Very... cave like.

[ocean wave sounds]

-[tropical sounds]
-Help?

Huh, you know, they remodeled
after I left for New York,

so I'm kind of
at a loss here too.

Maybe...

How can you bake in the dark?

We can't, but apparently this
new smart panel thinks we can.

Sure, it's easy if you were here
when Mom installed it.

[laughs]

It's really not
that complicated.

Oh, check this out.

[rock music playing] ♪

Good vibes.

[laughs]

It's like she's actually here!

One for me. One for Mom!

She's gonna feel like a queen.

This surprise party's
gonna be perfect.

Get over there, Ken.
I want to capture this.

Over where? By Barbie? OK.

[mooing sounds]

-Is that a... cow?
-[camera shutter snaps]

♪

Oh, I think I may be responsible

for that car conga-line
behind us.

We're never gonna make it

to the store and back
in time to decorate.

Hey, maybe it'll be faster
to order online for pickup.

[phone chimes]

Rafa! What's up?

Is something wrong?
Did you confuse chiffon
with taffeta again?

No.

Possibly, but that's not why
I'm calling.

How could you and Malibu
leave for LA without me?

We didn't mean to, it all
happened so fast.

You know I'm dying
to see Hollywood!

The movie studios,
the Pacific Ocean,

the avocado toast museum.

[cars honking]

Are you listening to me?

No, I mean yes.

I'm trying to, but I need
to place an order

for party decorations and...

You are having a party
without me too?

Look at us go.

We should bake together
more often.

I'm free tomorrow.

Mom's back!
She's in the driveway!

What? No!

We need more time!

OK, how do we keep her
from seeing your sister?

What if...

Nope. I got nothing.

Ha, I didn't expect to see all
of you standing right there.

Hi, Mom!

Have fun at brunch?

Was it delicious?

What did you have?
Start from the beginning.

You're all acting strange.

-Again.
-Strange?

No, we're just excited
to see the birthday girl.

Well, if you don't mind,
the birthday girl

would like to come inside
the house.

You can't, because you
have to go to the camper.

Yes, because we planned
a spa day, for you...

...in the camper.

Hope it includes a foot massage.

Phew.

What's wrong?

Don't tell me your order
didn't go through.

Oh, it went through,

but I must have pressed
all the wrong buttons.

With all the cars, and traffic,

and Rafa's avocado toast museum.

How is that a thing?

OK, baby, breathe.

[inhales and exhales]

I'm gonna need help carrying
everything to the car.

OK, birthday girl.

Let's get you started with a...

A facial!

Then that foot massage
and a pedicure.

A can of oil and some
window cleaner?

[nervous laugh]

That's for the basic
spa package.

You don't want that.

I'll go get the supplies
for the deluxe package.

Hi, Barbie!

Bye, Barbie!

Oatmeal?

Was this left over
from breakfast yesterday?

I want to get a picture
of the birthday girl!

Not now, darling!

[sighs]

Can we try something else,
a little more creamy?

I need something creamy.

Wait! I need that!

Whoa, whoa!

I don't know girls,

I've never had a strawberry
frosting facial before.

All the celebrities
are doing it.

You just relax and let
the frosting do its magic.

And I'll go get something
soothing, for your eyes.

Need something for Mom's eyes!

Well, we're out of cucumbers.

Oh, this'll work.

Pickles?

OK, girls.

I think that's all the relaxing
your mom can take right now.

My eyes are stinging.

Are these pickles?

But, what about your pedicure?

A different color for each toe!

Girls, this has been lovely,

but what I need right now
is a bath and a nap.

Ooh, still burns.

Skipper just texted.

Your Mom's coming in
for a bath and a nap!

Oh, good.

She'll be out of the way
while we finish setting up.

I'll go hide in my room.

Let me know when the coast
is clear and...

No time! Hide!

[gasps]

We'll get your bath ready!

Thanks, girls.

Just let me get a glass
of water first.

Margaret, you're going
to the kitchen.

Ugh!

Uh, yes.

Last time I checked the water
was in the kitchen.

[laughing] George!

What are you doing?

I'm, I'm dancing
with the birthday girl.

[laughs] Oh, George.

♪

Don't worry, it's just us.

[phone chimes]

That sounds like Barbie's phone.

No, it's close but I think
Barbie's ringtone

has more of a samba b*at,
more like

♪ buh buh ba da da... ♪

It's coming from the kitchen.

Here's your water, Mom!

Nice and cold.

From the puppy bowl.

Why is everyone shouting?

We were shouting? Didn't notice.

Let's get you to that hot bath.

Brooklyn, you won't believe...

You're back? How'd it go?

You said you wanted fun
and festive.

OK, I may have accidentally made
a few wrong selections

on the pick-up order.

Did you know that store has
a strict no returns policy?

[sniffs]

Something's burning!

Can I have a balloon?

You sure can, sweet-pea.

Mom's kiwi cake
is kiwi charcoal.

Kiwi?

We're out of lemons.

Maybe we can fix it
with frosting?

OK, maybe not.

Well, at least things
can't get worse.

[thunder clapping]

[raining]

I thought you said it never
rains in California?

And I thought I could pull off
a surprise party.

No. This party is happening.

We've worked too hard to let
this ruin Mom's surprise.

Am I sensing a brainstorm
before the rainstorm?

You bet you are.

It's gonna take everything
we've got to save this party.

Are you with me?

-[all] Yes!
-Shh!

[all whisper] Yes.

OK, Chels', time to get Mom.

And remember, it's a surprise.

Remind me to never doubt your
party planning skills again.

Your mom's definitely
going to be surprised!

Hope so.

And don't worry.
I will, like all the time.

We better hide!

Wow, this is really surprising!

Double surprise!

Barbie?!

Brooklyn, Simone!
Oh, this is a surprise.

Thanks for bringing
my girl home.

Happy to.

We'd do anything for Barbie.

Mom, I wanted to throw you
the perfect surprise party

but things kind of kept
going wrong.

So, here we are.

Inflatable clown and all.

[laughs]
Oh, honey, it is perfect.

My family and friends are here,
you're here.

That makes this the most
perfect party ever.

And I kind of like the clown.

Hey, everyone!

Let's squeeze together
for a birthday photo.

No, no, no, no!

-No! Not the cord.
