MIGUEL: Come on, Theo!

Huah!

Hmm.

Hmm.

Hmm.

Heh heh. I'll show him.

Hyah!

Whoa! Nice sh*t!

Man, you are on fire!

A brick wall couldn't stop you.

We are gonna win!

We are gonna win!

We are gonna win!

Team, tomorrow we find out what we're made of.

Get out there and be bold!

Be tough!

Be confident!

Because, with Miguel leading this team,

who in the world is gonna b*at us?

ANNOUNCER: The score is tied.

With this final penalty kick Santos can win the game!

[Fans chanting, "Miguel"]

[Cheering and applause]

That's my brother!

[Fans chanting, "Miguel"]

Booya!

ANNOUNCER: Santos misses the kick!

Looks like the ball is headed clear out of the stadium.

Wait! It's coming back.

BOY: Who is this guy!

Uh-oh.

What was that?

Uh, did I say that was my brother?

I might have him confused with someone else.

[Echoing] With someone else, With someone else.

COACH: There's no shame in losing,

but who are we kidding?

We all know we're gonna win, win, win!

Tomorrow morning, the bus will be waiting to drive us to the game.

Be outside school by : sharp,

or we'll leave without you.

Oh, and Santos, it's your turn to take home the mascot.

Hmm. Cosmo's not much, but he's all we've got!

[Oinking]

That is the saddest-looking pig I've ever seen.

[Oinking]

Let's see.

This one smells good.

Oops! Well, uh, more is always better, right?

Awk! Maya cooking?

Yep. Mama and Abuela are having dinner with Tia Teresa,

so I told papi that I'd help!

[Cosmo oinking]

Oh. Who's this?

Cosmo, our team mascot.

It's my turn to watch him.

Huh! Oh! He's so cute!

[Oinking]

[Squawk]

He's not that cute.

Hewwo, wittle Cosmo.

Ah!

Ugh.

Ah, phooey!

Remember, mijos, he's not allowed in the apartment.

Even if he is the cutest little guy ever.

[Oinking]

He's not that cute.

He'll have to spend the night in the pet store,

but let's get him a little something to eat.

He can have some of Maya's magnificent meatloaf.

It should be ready about...now!

Mmm, mmm, mmm.

Paco wants meatloaf. Awk?

Cosmo, you must be starving.

Here you go.

[Burp]

PACO: Aah!

Oh. Learn some manners!

He even burps! Ohh, so cute.

I burp all the time. She never thinks I'm cute.

Hmm!

Ha ha ha.

[Steam whistle blows]

Good, huh?

Mm-hmm. Mm.

[Gulp]

Uh, thanks, Maya, but I'm just not that hungry.

Are you all right?

I'm just--I guess I'm nervous.

Everyone's counting on me.

What if I disappoint them?

Oh, Miguel, if you thought you were as good as everyone else

knows you are, you wouldn't be worried at all!

Huh! !¡Eso es!

We'll run some drills.

After all, practice makes perfect!

Maya, I know you're trying to help,

and I really appreciate it, but--

But what?

But I want to help my team win this game,

so I don't want one of your "eso es" moments

to, you know, backfire or anything.

Backfire?

Name one idea of mine that's backfired!

Remember the dog show incident?

[Cheering and applause]

Uh-oh!

Down, boys!

Well, you wanted them to notice you, didn't you?

Not like that!

You're just going to have to trust me.

So get ready for some warmups

because I know you're going to win tomorrow,

and when I'm done with you,

you're gonna know it too!

But, Maya, the bus leaves at : with or without me.

I can't be late!

Awk. !¡No puede llegar tarde!

Well, then, you'd better get up early tomorrow!

Now eat up for your strength.

More meatloaf, anybody?

No thanks. Not hungry.

Paquito! I know you're hungry.

[Burp]

Paco, that's disgusting!

But I--he--he did the same.

What a pig!

[Oink]

PACO: "Cosmo, Cosmo, Cosmo, Cosmo so cute."

What about, "Paco so cute"?

Awk! Paco go help Miguel with his drills!

Paco's good at drills.

Paco's better than Cosmo!

Awk!

OK, Miguel.

We'll start out with the easy stuff.

Let's get those knees workin'!

[Grunting]

Ah. Shh. We're gonna see who's so cute.

Aah! Aah!

Aah! Whoa!

[Squawking]

Ay. Paco?

Sorry, Abuelita.

Hmm. :? Doesn't look right.

:!

Goooooo Miguel!

It's :. We've got to get to the game already.

Where's Miguel?

[Whistle blows]

Miguel, I'm watching the clock

so you don't have to!

Now this is a speed trial.

Return as many balls as you can and make it fast.

Ah! !¡Rapido!

The bathroom is this door.

No, this door.

No, well, I'll just try this one.

Ohh!

Maya, you're kidding, right?

Bring it on!

[Sigh]

We can't wait anymore.

This bus is leaving.

But what about Miguel and Cosmo?

Better start practicing your oinks.

Be bold!

Oink.

[Sighs]

I can't believe Santos let us down.

Relax, Miguel. Focus.

OK, thanks to your great idea,

I'm even more nervous than before!

What time is it anyway?

Don't worry. It's still only :.

Oh, phew, :.

What?! :?!

We didn't get here until :.

That clock must be wrong, Maya!

Huh! Oh, no! It's :!

I'm late!

!¡Tarde?!

[Miguel panting]

Nooo! The bus is gone!

I missed the bus!

Now I won't be able to play

in the championship game!

Hmm. Yes, you will!

Grr.

If only I hadn't told your parents

to meet us at the game,

they could have driven us,

but don't you worry, Miguelito.

We have to make it to the game before it starts.

I can't be late.

No vamos a llegar tarde.

The train goes right there.

I don't know why you don't trust me!

You don't? Really?!

Remember when you found out I liked Sarah?

Are you sure she's gonna like this?

I know she is!

Miguel?

Um, um, surprise!

[Ahchoo]

I'm allergic to flowers.

[Gulp]

[Sneezing]

Well, you wanted her to notice you.

She notices me because she sneezes

every time she sees me!

Heh heh. Sorry.

Mijo, maybe her sneezing is a sign of affection.

Awk! Paco checks for trains.

No train yet.

Not in that direction.

I see it! Train! Train!

!¡El tren!

Miguel!

Awk!

[Squawking]

Awk!

Very graceful.

Bah.

El tren. Vamos, mijos.

Here we go.

Express train to the championships.

[Squawking]

Come on, Cosmo, we have to get on the train!

Come on!

[Snorting]

Come on!

Please, Cosmo. I'm late!

[Squawk]

See you. Don't forget to write!

[Oinking]

MIGUEL: Hey!

Whoa!

Oh, great.

[Oinking]

Hey! That's where Paco sits!

Ahh.

[Oink]

Oh, Cosmo doesn't want to sit on the cold floor

of the train, does he?

Paco, you don't mind sitting on the bar so Cosmo can sit

next to me, do you?

Ahh?

Hee hee.

Huh!

Please, Paquito?

Rrr. All right.

Sheez! What is this, a barnyard?

I can't even believe this!

Oh, anything for Cosmo.

Hee hee! Nyah. Awk!

Ha ha!

Awk!

Attention passengers-- this--ver--import-nt!

This train--expres--

and will not--stop at--

Thank you for listening.

W-wait a second. Wha--what did she say?

I don't know!

This train is express and will not stop at...

[Squawk]

Hold on, little Cosmo.

Aah!

♪ Old MacDonald had a farm, e-i-e-i-o ♪

♪ And on his farm, he had a Cosmo, e-i-e-i-o! ♪

♪ With a oink-oink here, and an oink-oink there ♪

That was our song.

♪ There an oink, everywhere an oink-oink ♪

♪ Old MacDonald had a farm, e-i-e-i-o! ♪

Huh? Wait, wait, wait! That was our stop!

Aah! This train is going express!

I'm going to be so late!

Miguel, we only have to go stops back.

Aw!

Huh. !¡Eso es!

No more! I--I can't take it!

But, it's simple. Look!

There's Senor Felipe!

He can drive us there super fast in his truck!

Good idea, Maya.

Senor Felipe's truck?

That sounds...like it might actually work.

Did I just say that?

Yes, you did.

[Tires squeal]

Gracias, Senor Felipe.

I'm glad you don't mind driving us to Miguel's game!

Con gusto.

I'm just worried that my truck

might not be so comfortable.

Oh, no, we're very comfortable!

Hmph. Comfortable.

Awk!

Oh, no.

Popped a tire.

See, even the most normal idea--

Don't worry!

I know everything's going to work out OK.

How?!

Because the only way to fail is to give up,

and I'm never going to give up!

You can, you know. You can give up!

I wouldn't mind, Maya!

Your sister is right, eh.

I remember when your abuelo was desperately trying

to get to our restaurant for the grand opening.

Ah! He couldn't be late, but the car wouldn't drive!

He was ready to give up, but not me!

So we took a plane.

[Squawking]

[Groaning]

Whoo-hoo!

Yeeaaahhh!

Noooo!

ABUELA: And parachuted to the restaurant

just in time for dinner!

Ha ha ha!

Your abuelo made quite an impression, huh,

all because we never gave up!

I feel very close to Abuelo right now.

[Oinking]

Oh. Thanks, Cosmo. That really makes me feel better.

Hey. What about Paco?

Senor Felipe, gracias por tu ayuda.

But we need to get to the field fast,

and you can't drive your truck,

so I think we'll just get out here before we're late.

I understand.

I'm just sorry I couldn't get you there.

Good luck, Miguel!

Thanks.

[Moans]

[Oink]

You're not throwing in the towel, are you?

I'm not?

Didn't you hear what Abuela said?

Never give up!

That's how my ideas work.

I know how they work.

You say, "Eso es"...

!¡Eso es! That's it!

Hey! Look, right there!

A bus full of tourists, and no tour guide.

Just my kind of luck!

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Yes, and it scares me.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Yeah!

This should be an interesting bus ride.

¿Hola? Hello?

Is this thing working?

OK. Let me see. Testing?

Is this thing working?

[Feedback]

Bueno? Can you hear me?

ALL: Yes!

Oh, good. Ahem.

Welcome, tourists, to our fair city!

Today is a custom tour bus.

Uh, bus tour.

Uh, I hope you all like soccer!

Just head for the big game.

I mean, go that way, ah!

And fast! We don't want to be late!

Over here, this is where my grandson Miguel

lost his little blankie, and he cried, and cried,

"Oh! I want my blankie-wankie!

I want my blankie-wankie!"

Right over here is where my very own granddaughter Maya

lost her first tooth,

and she cried and cried.

So, your ideas, where do you get them anyway?

I really don't know.

I've been having big ideas since I was a baby!

Mm-hmm.

I'm going to get you some delicious milk.

Yum-yum!

!¡Eso esaaaaaahhhh!

Yum-yum!

Yeah!

Ha ha ha!

Yummy, yummy, yummy.

That was delicious.

Um, excuse me.

Ah, yes. You, ma'am.

I was wondering if you could tell me something

about the history of that building?

That building?Yes.

Uh-oh.

Well, that was built in by renowned architect Carter Stone.

Notice the arches.

She's pretty good, huh?

Yup.

The entire building is made of stone imported from Italy.

[Oinking]

I smell peanut butter and jelly.

Peanut butter!

Aah! Pig!

Go away! Go away!

Aah! Pig! Go away!

Awk! No, Cosmo!

Cosmo, stop, no!

Shoo!

Cosmo, have some manners.

As if a pig wasn't bad enough,

now there's a pigeon!

Ugh, pigeons!

Hey, who you callin' a pigeon?!

Aah!

[Oinking]

What's a pigeon-- I mean, a parrot to do?

DRIVER: Hey, it's our regular tour guide!

Aah!

I am so sorry I'm late!

Wow, we have a lot of tourists on this bus today!

Thanks to your substitute tour guide.

WOMAN: Excuse me, ma'am.

Can I get a photo with you?

Hmm. Por supuesto.

Thanks for fillin' in!

And now we have to go back to our scheduled tour.

Yeah, come back anytime.

I love hearing those stories about Miguel and his blankie!

Ha ha! I want my blankie-wankie!

I want my blankie-wankie!

Well, I guess that's it.

I missed my game.

What do you mean?

Well, the game starts in minutes,

and we're too far to walk.

Besides, we've tried every form

of transportation on earth!

Not every one.

What?

The key to a good idea-- never give up!

No way.

Way.

Awesome.

[Horse neighs]

The soccer field, please.

And fast! We can't be late!

[British accent] Oh, you must be going to see

the championship game.

See it? My brother here is going to win it!

[British accent] To the stadium, good sir.

[Grunting]

Hey, move out of the way!

Cosmo! Paco! Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

It's OK, Cosmo. Don't worry.

I've got you. Just hold on.

We're almost there. Good boy!

Don't worry, Cosmo. I'll get us there safely!

Follow me, horsy.

Come on! Giddyap!

Well, Walt, that's about it.

You're gonna be the champions by default this year.

PACO: We're here! We're here!

Let's start the game!

Wow, that's the best mascot stunt I've ever seen!

Where's my team?

They're late!

We're gonna have to call it in , ...

[Horn honking]

Look, the bus!

[Cheering]

Miguel, I've never seen anyone work so hard to be a champ.

You make me proud.

And I don't know what you did to Cosmo,

but that's the most I've ever seen that mascot move!

Giddyap! Yee-ha!

Way to go, Cosmo and Paco!

Get along, little piggy!

Yoo-hoo!

[Cheering]

Paco and Cosmo in the house!

ANNOUNCER: The score is tied.

With this final penalty kick, Santos can win the game!

[Fans chanting, "Miguel"]

That's my brother!

[Fans chanting, "Miguel"]

Whoa!

The penalty kick is good!

Santos has won the game!

[Cheering and applause]

Cosmo, thanks for cheering us on today,

and, Paco, it was nice having Cosmo here,

but I never could have done it without my best buddy

by my side.

Gracias.

Oh. Thank you! !¡Gracias, Miguel!

Cosmo and I are friends now!

MAYA: Miguel!

Well, you were right.

You got me here.

And I didn't even need my parachute!

Yay! Whoa! Unh!

Huh?

Oh. Never give up!

No, Maya, you never do.

[Both laughing]
