01x03 - Sofia

[bunniefuu]

TEACHER: Well, how about that?

That was almost 20 full minutes

devoted to the application of Band-A*DS.

Thank you, Baymax, for coming in to visit.

[BELL DINGS]

Class dismissed.

I'll see you all after lunch

for the talent show,

which I will judge harshly, but fairly.

[ALI GROANS]

Come on, Ali. We got this.

Who else is going to win?

Lana and Tariq.

[KIDS GROAN]

Nice kids,

no sense of showmanship.

I'm going to go use the bathroom.

I'll meet you before the show to practice.

Not that we need it.

[GASPS]

Ah! Mmm! [CLICKS TONGUE]

Yo, yo, queen.

Oh, no.

Oh, no, no, no.

[GASPS]

Hello. My name is Baymax.

I was alerted to the need

for medical attention

when you said,

"Oh, no, no, no, no."

I'm fine.

Don't need any robot nurse help.

Just a normal kid

having a normal bathroom experience.

- I will scan you now.

- Wait, what

Scan complete.

You have mild seasonal allergies

and are currently menstruating.

I just got my first period.

- Correct.

- But my stomach hurts.

Mild abdominal cramping

is typical.

I can't believe this is happening.

This isn't supposed to

I can't!

I wasn't prepared for this.

And the dispenser is empty,

and I don't even have a thing.

The thing, you know a tampad.

A padpon.

Uh, uh

A maxi padpon with wings.

You are referring to

menstrual hygiene materials.

I will be right back.

Excuse me Oh, okay.

You know what? Let me

Oh, no. Okay.

[SIGHS]

Hmm.

BAYMAX: Excuse me.

Which of these products

would you recommend?

Oh! Um Uh

Well, these are the tampons I usually use.

- Thank you.

- WOMAN 1: I prefer pads.

- They're more comfortable for me.

- Thank you.

- I always get the ones with wings.

- Thank you.

Get unscented

and bleach free, if you can.

- Yo, my daughter loves these.

- BAYMAX: Thank you.

WOMAN 2: These might be easier

if it's her first period.

- BAYMAX: Thank you.

- These are environmentally friendly.

I have brought you a variety.

[AIR HISSING AND SQUEAKING]

BAYMAX: You may select

your preferred sanitary napkin.

No one calls them that, Baymax.

Okay, so this one

Well, this one has

Wow. I have no idea how to use that.

If you require, I can pull up

an instructive video to show you how

No, no, no.

I don't want this!

[DOOR SLAMS]

BAYMAX: May I suggest these to start with?

SOFIA: Thanks.

[RUSTLING]

SOFIA: Baymax, don't listen.

BAYMAX: Now you are able

to return to class.

Back to class?

Are you kidding?

I'm not going back to class,

or anywhere.

No. No, no. I live in this bathroom now.

Do you think they'll let me paint

an accent wall in here?

ALI: [KNOCKS] Uh

Sofia, are you okay in there?

What's up, Ali?

Sofia, is everything okay

Well, wow.

Okay, you've really got

your own thing going on in here.

We have, like, five minutes

before the talent show.

Oh! Talent show!

Aw! Ali, I completely forgot.

I got my first period

and my guts feel tied up in knots,

and my insides are

coming out of my outsides,

and my childhood is over!

Oh, that's a lot of information

for me to process.

I'm sorry.

Congratulations.

No, neither of those sound right.

Look, it's really not that big of a deal.

Are you freaking kidding me?

Not a big deal?

Okay, okay. It's okay.

Well, my sister,

she says it's good,

because you can sometimes

get out of gym class.

But I love gym class.

Exercise can be helpful

for menstruation related cramping.

ALI: Sofia.

This show is all we've been talking about,

and I can't jump, catch myself,

and then do opposite direction

yoyo throws.

I'm just one kid.

SOFIA: We might have been too ambitious

with our choreography.

- [BELL DINGS]

- The show's starting.

Please, please come, Sofia.

It's a middle school talent show

for Pete's sake.

These kids will eat me alive.

[GRUNTS]

BAYMAX: Why do you not want to perform

in the talent show?

It's not

I just I can't.

BAYMAX: It is common for people

to feel embarrassed,

fearful or uncomfortable

with the subject of menstruation.

But it is just biology.

It is nothing to be ashamed of.

No, no, Baymax,

it's not that. It's

I remember when

my cousin Valerie got her period.

My tía Mariana wouldn't stop

calling her mi mujercita

and everyone started

treating her differently.

I'm not ready for that.

I'm not done being a kid yet.

BAYMAX: You are 12-years-old.

By many cultural standards,

you are still a child.

A pre-teenager or "tween."

But getting your period

is supposed to be like this

huge deal, and it means I'm different now.

- Right?

- BAYMAX: You are getting older.

Your body may change,

but you will always be you.

How do you feel?

I feel like the kid who's gonna

kick serious butt in this talent show.

Period.

[CHUCKLES]

Thank you, Baymax.

BAYMAX: Ah.

Period.

- That is humorous.
