Son of the legendary hero...

Grandson of the evil
Super-villain...

Dude, something on your shoe.
Please?
I no longer wish to be the
Albino burrito, solitary
Defeater of "crimeliness."
I want to be your sidekick.
Uh, let me think about it.
No!
[Crickets chirping]
I'm tired of working solo.
Lonely is the path of the hero.
Lonely is the path of the hero. [Alarm blaring]
[Alarm blaring]
[Panting]
I crave companionship.
No man is an island...
No man is an island... [Crashing]
[Crashing]
Ok, now you've gone too far.
I weary of heroic
"Aloneliness."
I got to be your sidekick.
Please?
Take a hint, davi.
You're...
You're too good to be my
Sidekick.
But i... What?
Heck, last time we worked
Together, you b*at a giant
Robot.
I'm outclassed.
I ought to beyoursidekick, but
Darn the luck, I'm not available
Right now.
Ok, got to go, bye.
Davi: my sidekick?
Wow, i...
Wow, i... [Flushing]
[Flushing]
See?
Nobody would ever look for us
Here.
There you are.
[Screaming]
He's not human.
I got to show you my new
w*apon, the mexican hat dance of
Ultimate power.
By dancing around this hat, I
Can unleash a force savage
Enough to rend the fabric of
Existence.
I just got to wind this up.
Reality is not for everyone.
[♪...]
Davi, dancing is not a
w*apon.
[Grunting]
[Grunting] ow, ow, ooh, ow, ow, ow, ow.
Ow, ow, ooh, ow, ow, ow, ow.
Hey, it's banana pudding day
In the cafeteria.
You want to be my sidekick?
Then you got to keep up with...
[Growling]
El tigre.
El tigre. You need moves like these.
You need moves like these.
That can't be good.
Don't worry, sir.
Your grandmother's priceless
Book of recipes will be safe
Here...
[Wheezing]
Grandma's recipes, all gone.
Her tamales, her meatless chili
Her tamales, her meatless chili con carne.
Con carne.
Rivera!
If you did this, you will be
Expelled.
[Gasping]
And then prosecuted, and then
Imprisoned forever.
I will ruin your life, as you
Have ruined mine.
Have ruined mine. [Laughing]
[Laughing]
Davi, sidekick for a week if
You take the blame.
I did it.
Me, me, me!
You?
Yes, yes, I'm bad.
Very bad.
I let that skunk loose in the
Gym.
I filled your car with flan.
And I defaced the school.
Yeah, looks like I'm getting
A free pass too.
Well, if it really was you,
And not this boy-shaped chunk of
Evil, then don't do it again.
That's a good student.
Have a cookie.
Uh, hi, mom.
Uh, hi, mom. I don't want to know.
I don't want to know.
Yay!
El tigre is my sidekick for a
Whole week!
What?
Me, your sidekick?
Yeah, remember?
You said I'm so good, you should
Be my sidekick.
Dude, did you say that?
Yeah, but...
Yay!
I'm not doing this.
You got to.
If you don't, davi might rat you
Out to vice principal chakal.
[Stammering], you think?
We can't take the chance.
If you get expelled, I'll be in
School alone.
I'll have to walk to school
Alone.
I'll have to eat lunch alone.
I'll have to pay attention in
Class.
Is that what you want?
Alone?
No!
So, we should talk about what
I expect from a sidekick.
We can use this book as a guide.
Manny: how to be a superhero.
It's information I've
Gathered from thousands of comic
Books.
In here are all the rules you
Need to follow as my sidekick.
Oh, how interesting.
Excuse me.
Alone.
Let's see.
Ah, sidekick rule one.
A sidekick must follow his
Hero's every command, ok?
Can I get a burrito bellow?
Hee-haw.
I can't do this.
I can't do this. [Growling]
[Growling]
I can do this.
Hee?
Haw.
Chorus: ♪ albino burrito
[Grunting]
Calm yourself, "imperilated"
Feline.
I shall save you.
Get a load of rule two.
A sidekick must encourage his
Hero with supportive sayings.
Oh, yeah.
Do that, do that, do that.
Too bad I don't know any.
That's ok, there's a list of
Them to choose from.
Them to choose from. Alone.
Alone.
Gosh, albino burrito, you're
The swellest.
That's why you're the boss, a.b.
When you're our hero, crime's a
Zero.
Man!
You're free.
[Manny screaming]
Excellent work, loyal sidekick.
Excellent work, loyal sidekick. Chorus: ♪ albino burrito
Chorus: ♪ albino burrito
The flock of fury.
We got to stop them.
Rule number three is funny.
Rule number three.
Dang.
A sidekick must help his hero
Make a dramatic entrance.
You got to sing my theme song
Before I go in.
I'm not gonna...
Alone.
C-flat, please.

Manny: ai-ai-ai.
Ooh, I forgot to give you a
Costume.
As my sidekick, you'll be macho
Moose.

A robbery is afoot.
Macho moose, my theme song, if
You please.

Take me in, "mangs."
I can't wait to tell
"Everybodies" in prison about
Macho moose.
[Laughing]
Oh, macho moose.
That is absolutely,
Positively it!
I can't stand it anymore.
You are the worst superhero of
All time.
You don't deserve a sidekick.
[Gasping]
Dude.
Dude. [Sobbing]
[Sobbing]
Oh, man.
It's like you kicked a puppy.
A lost, unemployed puppy, with a
Cold.
Cold. Oh, davi, wait.
Oh, davi, wait.
Davi, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean it, buddy.
[Sniffling]: yes you did, and
You were right.
I've never been a good
Superhero.
I've just been fooling myself.
I've just been fooling myself. I'm a fraud.
I'm a fraud.

[Gasping]
Ma'am.
Uh, davi?
Look out!
[Screaming]

[Growling]
[Growling] hey, let go.
Hey, let go.
Manny: davi, get help.
My sidekick, in danger.
I must save him with the mexican
Hat dance of ultimate power.
I said get help, from someone
I said get help, from someone who's not you.
Who's not you.
Davi, I'm gonna get eaten here!
All right, I'm gonna dance.
You kiss that monster.

No way!

Davi, that was brilliant.
How did you know which one was
The girl?
One of them was a girl?
You did it, manny.
No, the albino burrito did
It.
Davi, I'm sorry.
That's ok, el tigre.
Call me macho moose.
Too bad your hat dance didn't
Work, huh?
Hey, maybe it's 'cause you
Didn't do the clap at the end.
Don't!
Don't! [expl*si*n]
[expl*si*n]

Manny, what...?
No, I don't want to know.

Come here to enjoy the quiet
Beauty of the outdoors.

Of the earth.
And the silver sombrero, the
Fearless, and so handsome,
Fearless, and so handsome, master of the flying sombrero.

This is a great honor.
May I offer you some chicken
Moleé?
It is a secret recipe that...

I am sorry for your cookware,
But the villain we seek also has
A secret recipe, for evil.
Cosmic cleopatra: we call
Him the dragonworm.
[Growling]
Silver sombrero: he has been
Traveling the world, obtaining
The secret ingredients that will
Make him unstoppable.
He has already found three of
The four ingredients.
If the dragonworm eats the
Fourth ingredient, he will
Become invincible, and all we
Know is that his final strike
Will be in miracle city.
[Gasping]
Eh.
We can end the dragonworm's
Reign of bad karma, but we need
Help.
Someone local, who...
[Shrieking]
I accept.
Ooh, ooh, I've always dreamed of
Joining the league.
I still have all the copies of
My fan letters you never
Answered.
Look, the theme song I wrote for
You when I was .

Of alliance society ♪
♪ Surrender and come
Along quietly ♪
Oh, nice, but actually, the
Hero we have come for is el

High-fives for good
Citizenship?
Look, he hit peoples with the
Moleé.
He too evil for the hero league,
Si?
[Laughing]
Please?
That's why we want him,
"Campadro."
El tigre has street smarts.
Without one who knows miracle
City's dark underbelly, we will
Never find the dragonworm.
El tigre, the league needs
You.
Will you join our noble cause?
Eh, me and frida were gonna
Go throw rocks at stuff.
As a reminder, I am still
Available.
Come on, kid.

Check the candy factory.
My grandson, in a hero team.
I guess you're happy now.
I guess you're happy now. So happy.

No dragon in the candy corn.
Let's check the sour worms.

Sombrero at a guy.
You threw the mighty flying
Sombrero?
And cleo, she's so cool.
She let me help potty train her
Power vipers.
Really?
You were right about these
Guys, dad.
I'm having the best day ever.
Yes, it must be like a dream
Come true.

Golly, I could go for some
Criminal activity.
Who else is digging my scene?
Hands?
[People growling]
[People growling] [fight noises]
[Fight noises]
Oh, white pantera.
I did not think you could
Embarrass yourself any more.
It's not like me to be so wrong.
Ow.
[Laughter]
Constructive criticism,
Child.
We're only trying to nurture.
Ow.
Ow. [Laughter]
[Laughter]
Why can't those guys show my
Dad some respect?
I wish they could see him for
What he is, a super-macho
Superhero.
Frida: no prob.
We just pull a shanghai
"Swapadoo."
You mean build a fake monster
And let my dad kick its butt in
Front of the league so they
Could see how macho he is?
Yeah.
My own son thinks I need a
Charity battle?
Rodolfo...
[Gasping]
What eavesdropping?
I was testing our fire escape
Plan.
It works...
[Crashing]
Frida, my dad will never need
A charity battle.
Maybe I'll just get him a tie.
Maybe I'll just get him a tie. To the tie shop!
To the tie shop!
There you are, dad.
I want to give you something.
I already know,mijo.
I cannot accept your charity

It's the dragonworm.
Oh yeah.

Nice puppet, but you can see
The strings.
Quick, dad, before it finds
The last secret ingredient and
Becomes unstop... [Gasping].
[Silver sombrero laughing]
Finally, the dragon has taken
Our bait.

Piping hot tiger.

Fakey dragon now.

Very well.
Since you went to all this
Trouble, giant pretend puppet
Creature, witness the fury of
White pantera.

Take that, and this.
Ha-ha-ho, had enough?
All right, dragon.
You want to eat something?
Eat this!
Feel my wrath, spleen.
Have some pain, pancreas.
Hope you're not important, brown
Squiggle thing.
[Dragonworm screaming]
[Dragonworm screaming] [manny grunting]

Dad, you saved me.
Yes, yes, I saved you from
The phony drag... [Gasping].
That dragon spit is real, which
Means...
Mijo,i let jealousy blind me,
And i, I nearly lost you.
Forgive me.
Your dad apologized to you.
It's like some crazy backwards
Universe.
Ask for brass knuckles.
Pantera, we sure
"Misunderestimated" you.
[Laughing]
So mighty, so heroic, so
So mighty, so heroic, so manly.
Manly.
Please, you must join the
League of alliance society.
We beg you.
No, I could never join a team
That would use my son as dragon
Bait.
And your milkshakes taste
Like cat pee.
Like cat pee. I quit.
I quit.
Wait, you can't leave.
Come on, I said please.
Ooh, we'll let you fly the
Ultra-blimp.
Actually, the contract states
My client keeps the blimp.
But, but what could he do
With the world's biggest
Balloon?
