ALMA: "Beatbox Big Time"

[playing music]

[music starts over]

ALMA: Hey, who's playing that music?

I think Mami's outside...

ALMA: Huh.

They keep playing the same thing...

but why?

Dun, dun, dun!

I've gotta figure this out.

JUNIOR: [roar humming to the music]

ALMA: [giggles]

[playing music]

ALMA: Ah-Ha!

KIDS: Ah!

EDDIE: Oh hi, Alma!

BECKA: You scared us!

ALMA: Sorry! I was just trying to figure out...

who was playing the music!

EDDIE: Oh, yeah.

Tía Lulú let us use her music room so we can practice.

ALMA: It sounded great but...

aren't you tired of playing the same thing...

over and over and over again?

BECKA: Nah...

the more we play it, the better we get!

EDDIE: Yeah, when we first started playing the song,

it sounded like this...

[bad playing]

EDDIE: [giggle] That's what we thought too!

BECKA: But we've done it so many times...

that now we play it like this...

[playing music]

ALMA: Wow! That was totally amazing!

You should play that song for my Mami and Papi!

EDDIE: Then we should invite my parents and Abuelo too!

BECKA: And my mom!

EDDIE: Do you want to play with us, Alma?

ALMA: Really?!

Sweet!

BECKA: Yeah, we could use someone to keep the b*at...

ALMA: Ohh! I can beatbox!

I've done it with Papi a bunch of times.

Check it out!

[beatboxing Old McDonald]

BECKA: Whoa. EDDIE: Okay, sweet!

BECKA: You're soooo good!

Beatboxing is just what our song needs!

EDDIE: Yeah, this is going to be epic!

Congratulations, you're in the band!

ALMA: Woo-hoo!

Now, let's go find everyone so we can play for them!

BECKA: Not yet.

I want to go over it a few more times.

EDDIE: Me too. Ready to practice, Alma?

ALMA: No, thanks! I don't need to practice.

EDDIE: Uh, are you sure?

We've never played together before.

ALMA: I'm sure.

I know how the song goes.

And I'm already great at beatboxing!

EDDIE: Uh... Oookay.

Becka and I are gonna practice together for a little while.

ALMA: Okay, I'll tell everybody to get ready...

for the Eddie-Becka-Alma Band!

See you later.

[playing music]

PAPI: Fetch Chacho! [Chacho growls]

PAPI: [laughs]

ALMA: Attention! Attention, everyone!

The Eddie-Becka-Alma Band is going to play a song for you!

MAMI: Wepa! Can't wait to hear it!

But, uh, Alma...

Where are Eddie and Becka?

ALMA: Don't worry, they'll be here soon!

And guess what, Papi?

I'm going to beatbox, just like you taught me!

PAPI: Qué bien, Almita!

Let's do our song! Ready?

--!

ALMA: [beatboxing Old McDonald] PAPI: [beatboxing Old McDonald]

MS. B: Oh! They're so talented!

MAMI: Uh-huh! That's my fam!

PAPI: [beatboxing] ALMA: [beatboxing]

JUNIOR: Heeeey, that's my b*at!

PAPI: [beatboxing] ALMA: [beatboxing]

JUNIOR: Did you see that?!

I can handstand for a whole second!

I've been practicing.

PAPI: Great work, Junior!

Can't wait to see you play with the band, Alma!

ALMA: I think it's show time!

I'll go get them.

[playing music]

ALMA: Hey there, everybody's waiting.

Are you ready?

BECKA: Almost.

We were thinking that we start out playing at the same time.

Then I do my solo by myself...

EDDIE: Then I do my solo, then you.

BECKA: And then we'll finish with all of us playing...

at the same time again.

EDDIE: Got it?

ALMA: Yep! So, it goes... same time.

Then just Becka.

Just Eddie. Just me.

Then same time.

EDDIE: That's it.

But since this is our first time playing this song together,

maybe we should practice it real quick?

ALMA: Nah. Don't worry.

When you start playing, I'll figure out when to play my solo.

EDDIE: Oh, okay...

ALMA: This will be so easy.

EDDIE: It's showtime!

ALMA: Helloooo, Bronx Backyard!

We're the Eddie-Becka-Alma Band!

And here's our song...

EDDIE: One, two, three...

[playing music]

ALMA: [beatboxing]

Not bad, right?

[beatboxes]

[♪♪♪]

JUNIOR: The Eddie-Becka-Alma Band is awesome!

[♪♪♪]

BECKA: [playing piano solo]

ALMA: [ over-the-top beatboxing ]

EDDIE: Alma! ALMA: [over-the-top beatboxing]

Alma!!!

ALMA: Uh-oh.

Am I supposed to stop here or keep going?

BECKA: [playing off key]

ALMA: Is that a yes I should stop...

or a yes I should keep going?

BECKA: [playing off key]

ALMA: [gasp]

JUNIOR: What happened to the music?

PAPI: Shhh...

EDDIE: It's Becka's solo so you should stop playing.

ALMA: Oh, got it. Sorry.

Ahem, take it away, Becka!

BECKA: [playing piano solo]

EDDIE: [playing Trumpet solo] ALMA: [enthusiastic beatboxing]

EDDIE: Alma! This is where I do my solo.

ALMA: Oh! Sorry!

Take it away, Eddie!

EDDIE: [playing Trumpet solo]

ALMA: [sigh]

EDDIE: [playing Trumpet solo]

JUNIOR: Shouldn't Alma be beatboxing or something?

PAPI: Shhh...

ALMA: Is it... time for my solo?

ALMA: Whoa! Playing in a band is hard!

[beatboxing]

EDDIE: Time for the whole band to play.

EDDIE: Take it away... us! ALMA: [beatboxing]

[playing music]

ALMA: [showboating beatbox solo]

[playing music]

ALMA: [beatboxing]

BECKA / EDDIE: [playing music]

ALMA: [beatboxing]

BECKA / EDDIE: [playing music]

ALMA: [finishes beatbox solo]

ALMA: Uh, I think that's the end.

PAPI: Bravo! That was a good first try!

MAMI: Yeah, that was different.

NESTOR: Fantástico! Magnificent effort.

You must perform for Tía Gloria when she gets home from work.

And that will give you time to practice.

MS. B: Great idea!

Can't wait for the second performance!

EDDIE: Ouff! That was rough.

BECKA: We did not sound good.

EDDIE: It's okay. Let's practice for our next performance.

ALMA: That was way, way, wayyy embarrassing!

Ummm, I don't think I should play with the band anymore.

BECKA: What?

But we're the Eddie-Becka-Alma Band!

Without you, we'll just be the Eddie-Becka Band.

ALMA: I'm sorry.

I should go...

ALMA: [sighs] I'm an awesome beatboxer,

but when I tried to play with Becka and Eddie,

it did not work.

What happened?

[sigh] I gotta think about this...

ALMA: It felt good to beatbox with Papi.

I knew just when to "boom boom" and when to "tsh".

ALMA: Eddie and Becka knew when to play their solos, too.

They did practice a lot this morning.

ALMA: [ beatboxing ]

Am I supposed to stop here or keep going ?

ALMA: When I played with them,

I kept doing "boom boom" and "tsh" at the wrong times.

But why?

EDDIE: Since this is our first time...

playing this song together...

maybe we should practice it real quick?

ALMA: Nah. Don't worry.

When you start playing I'll figure out when to play my solo.

ALMA: Ohhhh, I get it...

I know what to do!

[beatbox]

[playing music]

ALMA: Uh, hi... Eddie, Becka...

can I join the band again?

BECKA: That'd be amazing, Alma!

EDDIE: The Eddie-Becka-Alma Band is back together!

ALMA: Yeah! Together!

But this time...

I want to practice with you so I know when to beatbox.

KIDS: Okay!

EDDIE: Ready?

ALMA: Ready! One, two, three...

[playing music] ALMA: [beatboxing]

ALMA: And now...

The Eddie-Becka-Alma Band again!

EDDIE: One, two, three, hit it!

[playing music]

MS. B: Oh! Don't they sound soooooo good together?

MAMI: Yeah! They've been practicing all afternoon.

BECKA: [playing piano solo]

EDDIE: [playing trumpet solo]

NESTOR: It's beautiful!

Maravilloso!

[ Eddie trumpet solo ]

ALMA: [beatboxing solo]

KIDS: [all playing together] ALMA: Woo!

JUNIOR: Go, Alma! Go, Alma!

ALL: [cheer] Bravo! Well done!

ALMA: I'm good at beatboxing, but there's one way

I can get even better...

practice!

One more time!

ALMA: Alma the Super Sister is here to save the day!

JUNIOR: Super Sister?!

ALMA: Yep! It's my job to help my brother

with whatever he needs today.

JUNIOR: Yes!

Uh, excuse me, Super Sister, I have a question.

Does this mean we get to play together all day long?

ALMA: As long as you need help, your Super Sister is here!

JUNIOR: Double yes!

I get to play with my favorite sister in the whole world.

I mean, you're my only sister.

But you're still my favorite.

ALMA: [giggle] Okay, Junior.

What's my first mission as your Super Sister?

JUNIOR: Well, I'm making a giant tower with my dinosaurs.

Wanna help?

ALMA: Alma the Super Sister is on it!

I'm so good at this.

JUNIOR: Welcome to the Dino Crew!

Roarrr, welcome!

JUNIOR: Let's make our tower this tall!

ALMA: I'm on it!

JUNIOR: [gasp] Whoa whoa whoa, Alma.

I like to do them like this...

Red, yellow, blue.

Red, yellow, blue. See?

ALMA: Oh! Sorry.

I didn't notice that.

Your Super Sister will fix it!

JUNIOR: Let's build!

ALMA: Ooh, gracias, hermanito!

JUNIOR: You're welcome!

ALMA: I've got this one too!

ALMA: And I'll help with this one...

Dino Tower is gonna be sweet!

JUNIOR: Umm... Yeah...

I guess so.

ALMA: Great idea, you take a break.

JUNIOR: [sigh] Roarrr!

You're right. This is kinda boring.

You wanna play something else?

Rawr!

ALMA: [humming]

ALMA: Dino Tower is done!

Isn't it awesome, Junior?!

Junior?

ALMA: Oh...

Maybe he went to get a snack.

I can't wait for him to see this tower.

He's gonna love it!

First Super Sister mission complete.

I wonder what Junior wants me to do next.

ALMA: Junior?

GLORIA: Welp, now we've gotta put everything back in.

Ready, sis?

MAMI: Ooh, wait a sec.

There's some grass caught in there.

GLORIA: Ooh, thanks. I would've missed that.

Little sister, you're a big help!

Let's finish this... together!

ALMA: Here they go...

GLORIA / MAMI: Super Sisters, workin' together...

And stay in tun-a!

Get it?

'Cause you're a fish.

[giggles]

ALMA: Junior! Come see your Dino Tower.

It's the tallest tower in the history of towers!

JUNIOR: Okay, maybe later.

ALMA: Huh. I thought he'd be more excited.

So, what'cha doin'?

JUNIOR: I'm playing music school.

Do you wanna be in my class?

You can play the conga with Slithers, if you want.

He's friendly.

ALMA: This sounds like a job for Alma the Super Sister!

ALMA: Super Sisters make super students.

JUNIOR: Okay, class.

I'm Mr. Junior and today we're gonna learn how to play...

'Row Row Row Your Boat.' Ready?

A , , ...

Row, row, row your...

JUNIOR: Yes, Alma?

ALMA: Mr. Junior, I have an idea.

JUNIOR: Huh?

ALMA: Slithers can play the guitar...

so he can slide on the strings.

ALMA: And Herbert the Chicken will be on the guiro,

and Mr. Squishy can play piano.

JUNIOR: No, wait.

Herbert is really good at the guitar.

ALMA: Don't worry, your Super Sister's got this!

ALMA: And Bubbles on the conga!

JUNIOR: Alma...

I liked my music class the way it was before.

ALMA: Sure!

But this will make your music class extra super.

JUNIOR: Stooooop!

I don't want it to be extra super.

I want it to be extra Junior!

ALMA: I was just trying to help.

It's what Super Sisters do.

JUNIOR: I don't want your help!

And I don't need you to be my Super Sister.

ALMA: Whoa, Junior's really upset.

But I don't get it...

I was just being a good Super Sister...

right?

I gotta think about this...

JUNIOR: I get to play with my favorite sister

in the whole world.

ALMA: Junior was sooo excited when I told him...

I was gonna be his Super Sister.

ALMA: ...And Mr. Squishy can play piano!

JUNIOR: No wait!

JUNIOR: Alma...

I liked my music class the way it was before.

ALMA: But then, I kinda took over things...

He didn't like that.

GLORIA: Little sister, you're a big help!

Let's finish this... together!

ALMA: I wanted us to be like Mami and Tía Gloria...

Oh, that's it!

I know what to do!

JUNIOR: Roar!

Roar! Roar!

Roar!

ALMA: Hi, Junior.

You dropped Bubbles.

I think he wants to play.

JUNIOR: Thanks.

ALMA: I'm sorry about before, Junior.

I thought I was helping.

But I was taking over.

ALMA: I was playing for you,

but a Super Sister should play with you...

'cause you're my Super Brother.

JUNIOR: Me? Your Super Brother?

Really?

JUNIOR: Whoa...

JUNIOR: [giggles] I love it!!!
