We've been planning our trip
to the Statue of Liberty for a month!
So, first we'll get on the subway here, in the Bronx...
JUNIOR: All aboard to the Statue of Liberty!
Are we going to pass the Sweat Sox Stadium?
EDDIE: Yep, right around... here.

Sweat Sox Stadium, all aboard!
ALMA: We'll take the train
into Manhattan,
and then ride all the way down here.

And we'll ride it across the river
to Liberty Island!
ALMA: To see the Statue of Liberty!
LUCAS: Oh that's gonna be awesome!
I haven't been there since I was a little kid!
[sniffles]
ALMA: Me neither! I've always wanted a foam crown.
EDDIE: Me too!
I'm going to get a new crown!
[sniffles]
JUNIOR: Do you think they have crowns for dogs?

You were sniffling last night too.

OWEN: Hmmm, warm.
Let's get you home, Lucas.
LUCAS: Ah-ah-ah-ahh-CHOO!
[sniffles] Okay.
See you tomorrow.
OWEN: Sorry, buddy.
Seems like you're getting a bad cold...
so you're gonna have to sit this one out.
LUCAS: Wha-- Huh?!
But I wanna go with my friends!
OWEN: Yeah... You'll have to go with them another time. Okay?
LUCAS: (disappointed) Aww... Have a great time...
ah-choo!
OWEN: Bye, everybody.

Hey, Lucas, we'll take lots of pictures for you, okay?

But he still seems bummed that he missed our trip.
Hmm, what could I do to cheer him up?
I gotta think about this...

[car horns honking]
FRANKIE: Check out this old photo that was taken right here!
ALMA: That's what it used to look like right here?
FRANKIE: Better believe it, kiddo.
[subway rumbles by]
ANDRÉ: But...where's the subway?

ANDRÉ: For real?!
ALMA: No way!
FRANKIE: Check this out. Look across the street!
That corner used to look like this!
ANDRÉ: Ooh!
ALMA: Horses? On this street?
ANDRÉ: Were there ever horse traffic jams?
FRANKIE: Um...maybe?
FRANKIE: He-he-hey-now! Here's one from the s.
ANDRÉ: That looks like my mom's bookstore!
Except... not my mom's bookstore?
FRANKIE: Right!!
There used to be a bakery here called "Tres Cocos."
Recognize anyone?
ALMA: Wait a minute. Is that my abuelo?
His hair is so long! ...And so brown!
FRANKIE: [chuckles] Yep!
And check out Mr. Ramirez and my mom.
ANDRÉ: That's Doña Carmen? Whoa! Nice shades!
FRANKIE: That was... [finger snap] the style!
NEA: Frankie!
Look what I found in the basement...
Thanks!
FRANKIE: The Tres Cocos Bakery menu?!
Yo! This is legit!
NEA: Right? It's gonna look fab with your old photos in the gallery.
FRANKIE: Thanks, Nea!
NEA: No prob! I can see it now:
"The Bronx Through the Years!"
ALMA: These desserts sound so yummy!
ANDRÉ: Did you ever try the tres leches?
ALMA : Were the coconetes warm, like right out of the oven?
ANDRÉ: Did the chocolate cake have chocolate chips?
FRANKIE: Don't look at me! I was a lil' kid. I don't remember.
But you know who you can ask?
La reina del barrio. Mi Mamá!
ANDRÉ: Hey, Mom, can we go talk to Doña Carmen?
ALMA: And can we take this with us, please?
NEA: MmHmm. ANDRÉ: [gasp]
FRANKIE: I can take 'em to her. She's chillin' in the park.

ANDRÉ: My mom found it in the basement of the bookstore.
DOÑA CARMEN: Hmm...
[gasp] ¡¿Qué qué?! Is this from Tres Cocos Bakery!?
ALMA: Yeah, and look at this!
DOÑA CARMEN: [long sigh]
Ay, Tres Cocos...
You know,
I would spend hours there with Mr. Ramirez and your Abuelo.
DOÑA CARMEN: ¡Oye, Hector, ven aquí!
You've got to see this.
MR. RAMIREZ: Stay here, okay? I'll be right back.
MR. RAMIREZ: ¿Qué pasa?
DOÑA CARMEN: Look!
MR. RAMIREZ: Ay, Tres Cocos...
That bakery had the best desserts y cafecitos in the Bronx.
¿Recuerdas, Carmen?
DOÑA CARMEN: Oh yes! The coconetes were divine.
MR. RAMIREZ: I can almost taste them.
So sweet, so chewy...
DOÑA CARMEN: So coconutty.
MR. RAMIREZ: Ha! DOÑA CARMEN: [deep sigh]
ALMA: So. Hungry.
CHACHO: [barks]
MR. RAMIREZ: You know who really loved those coconetes?
ANDRÉ: Who?
MR. RAMIREZ: Hm-hm-hm-hmm...
ABUELO: ¡Hola!
ALMA: My Abuelo?
MR. RAMIREZ: Mmm-hmm.
ABUELO: Who? Me?!
MR. RAMIREZ: Remember this?
ABUELO: [gaps] Oh! Ay...
ALMA: Wait for it...
DOÑA CARMEN/MR. RAMIREZ /ABUELO: Ay, Tres Cocos...
ABUELO: Amigos, what a time we had! We'd sit together for hours!
MR. RAMIREZ: And eat coconetes and drink cafecitos!
DOÑA CARMEN: Ayy.. So many people passed by and we'd talk to everyone...
Tres Cocos Bakery was the heart of the neighborhood.
MR. RAMIREZ: We gotta hang out like that again.
DOÑA CARMEN: Ah! How about we whip up a batch of our own coconetes, huh!?
I got the Tres Cocos recipe before the bakery closed.
ALMA: [gasp]
ANDRÉ: Yes!
ALMA: We'll help!
MR. RAMIREZ: ¡Wepa! It'll be just like the good ol' days!
DOÑA CARMEN/MR. RAMIREZ /ABUELO: Ay, Tres Cocos...
CHACHO: [barks]

Let's see what's next...

FRANKIE: [sniffs] Ahhh... [chuckles]
DOÑA CARMEN: Paciencia, mi reyecito.
Mamá will make sure you get one when they're ready.

ANDRÉ: Really? What did we do wrong?

Maybe we need a second opinion?

MR. RAMIREZ: [chewing] Mmmm....
ANDRÉ: Whaddya think, Mr. Ramirez?
MR. RAMIREZ: This one is tasty, and this one is too, but...
they're not quite the same as Tres Cocos Bakery.
DOÑA CARMEN: Right?! It just doesn't taste like it did in the good ol' days.
MR. RAMIREZ: Mhmm.. Maybe ask your Abuelo, Alma.
DOÑA CARMEN: Ah-ha! Come on, mis bebitos!
ABUELO: [chewing] Mmm... Something's missing.
Mmmm. ¡Están delicioso! But...
it's just not the same as Tres Cocos Bakery.
DOÑA CARMEN: Right? We can't figure it out.
Ahh.. gracias.
ABUELO: Uhh, ahh... you can leave those here.
No sense in wasting them.
ABUELO/DOÑA CARMEN: [chuckles]
DOÑA CARMEN: ¡Muchísimas gracias, my little bakers!
I had fun today,
even if the coconetes won't ever be like they were
at Tres Cocos.

DOÑA CARMEN: Ay, mira chicos lindos [chuckle]
ANDRÉ: Well, I guess I'll see you later, Alma.
ALMA: Okay, André.
ALMA: I don't get it. It's the same recipe from the bakery.
Maybe it's not about the recipe?
I gotta think about this.
ABUELO: We'd sit together for hours!
MR. RAMIREZ: And eat coconetes and drink cafecitos.
ALMA: The coconetes WERE delicious...
but that wasn't the only thing they loved about Tres Cocos.
MR. RAMIREZ: We gotta hang out like that again.
ALMA: I think Doña Carmen, Abuelo, and Mr. Ramirez
miss spending time together!
DOÑA CARMEN: Tres Cocos Bakery was the heart of the neighborhood.
ALMA: There sure was a lot going on at Tres Cocos...
[gasp] That's it!
I know what to do!
ALMA: Hey, André!
ANDRÉ: What's up, Alma?
ALMA: We need the recipe for Tres Cocos Bakery.
ANDRÉ: A recipe for the bakery? You have a recipe for THAT?
ALMA: Well, hanging out all day, eating coconetes,
and talking to the whole neighborhood.
THAT'S the recipe for Tres Cocos Bakery.
C'mon!
DOÑA CARMEN: What's the big surprise, cielitos? ABUELO: Can't wait!
ALMA/ANDRÉ: TADA!
DOÑA CARMEN/MR. RAMIREZ /ABUELO: [gasps!]
MR. RAMIREZ ¡No lo puedo creer!/
ABUELO: ¡Increible!
DOÑA CARMEN: Just like Tres Cocos Bakery, no?
ALMA: Yes, yes, yes, yes, YES!
DOÑA CARMEN: What a fantastic surprise, my dumplings!
ANDRÉ: We made my Mom's bookstore
look just like it used to when it was the bakery!
ALMA: Maybe now your coconetes will taste just like you remember.
MR. RAMIREZ: ¡Oye amigo! Care to share?
ABUELO: [chuckles] Of course, mi amigo! André, por favor.
ABUELO/MR. RAMIREZ: [chuckling]
DOÑA CARMEN: Mmmm...
ALMA: What do you think, Doña Carmen?
DOÑA CARMEN: Let me tell you, baby.

ANDRÉ: For real?!
ALMA: No way!
FRANKIE: Check this out. Look across the street!
That corner used to look like this!
ANDRÉ: Ooh!
ALMA: Horses? On this street?
ANDRÉ: Were there ever horse traffic jams?
FRANKIE: Um...maybe?
FRANKIE: He-he-hey-now! Here's one from the s.
ANDRÉ: That looks like my mom's bookstore!
Except... not my mom's bookstore?
FRANKIE: Right!!
There used to be a bakery here called "Tres Cocos."
Recognize anyone?
ALMA: Wait a minute. Is that my abuelo?
His hair is so long! ...And so brown!
FRANKIE: [chuckles] Yep!
And check out Mr. Ramirez and my mom.
ANDRÉ: That's Doña Carmen? Whoa! Nice shades!
FRANKIE: That was... [finger snap] the style!
NEA: Frankie!
Look what I found in the basement...
Thanks!
FRANKIE: The Tres Cocos Bakery menu?!
Yo! This is legit!
NEA: Right? It's gonna look fab with your old photos in the gallery.
FRANKIE: Thanks, Nea!
NEA: No prob! I can see it now:
"The Bronx Through the Years!"
ALMA: These desserts sound so yummy!
ANDRÉ: Did you ever try the tres leches?
ALMA : Were the coconetes warm, like right out of the oven?
ANDRÉ: Did the chocolate cake have chocolate chips?
FRANKIE: Don't look at me! I was a lil' kid. I don't remember.
But you know who you can ask?
La reina del barrio. Mi Mamá!
ANDRÉ: Hey, Mom, can we go talk to Doña Carmen?
ALMA: And can we take this with us, please?

ANDRÉ: My mom found it in the basement of the bookstore.
DOÑA CARMEN: Hmm...
[gasp] ¡¿Qué qué?! Is this from Tres Cocos Bakery!?
ALMA: Yeah, and look at this!
DOÑA CARMEN: [long sigh]
Ay, Tres Cocos...
You know,
I would spend hours there with Mr. Ramirez and your Abuelo.
DOÑA CARMEN: ¡Oye, Hector, ven aquí!
You've got to see this.
MR. RAMIREZ: Stay here, okay? I'll be right back.
MR. RAMIREZ: ¿Qué pasa?
DOÑA CARMEN: Look!
MR. RAMIREZ: Ay, Tres Cocos...
That bakery had the best desserts y cafecitos in the Bronx.
¿Recuerdas, Carmen?
DOÑA CARMEN: Oh yes! The coconetes were divine.
MR. RAMIREZ: I can almost taste them.
So sweet, so chewy...
DOÑA CARMEN: So coconutty.
MR. RAMIREZ: Ha! DOÑA CARMEN: [deep sigh]
ALMA: So. Hungry.
CHACHO: [barks]
MR. RAMIREZ: You know who really loved those coconetes?
ANDRÉ: Who?
MR. RAMIREZ: Hm-hm-hm-hmm...
ABUELO: ¡Hola!
ALMA: My Abuelo?
MR. RAMIREZ: Mmm-hmm.
ABUELO: Who? Me?!
MR. RAMIREZ: Remember this?
ABUELO: [gaps] Oh! Ay...
ALMA: Wait for it...
DOÑA CARMEN/MR. RAMIREZ /ABUELO: Ay, Tres Cocos...
ABUELO: Amigos, what a time we had! We'd sit together for hours!
MR. RAMIREZ: And eat coconetes and drink cafecitos!
DOÑA CARMEN: Ayy.. So many people passed by and we'd talk to everyone...
Tres Cocos Bakery was the heart of the neighborhood.
MR. RAMIREZ: We gotta hang out like that again.
DOÑA CARMEN: Ah! How about we whip up a batch of our own coconetes, huh!?
I got the Tres Cocos recipe before the bakery closed.
ALMA: [gasp]
ANDRÉ: Yes!
ALMA: We'll help!
MR. RAMIREZ: ¡Wepa! It'll be just like the good ol' days!
DOÑA CARMEN/MR. RAMIREZ /ABUELO: Ay, Tres Cocos...
CHACHO: [barks]

MR. RAMIREZ: I gotta go too, chao!
DOÑA CARMEN: Okay, gingersnaps! Let's get baking!

DOÑA CARMEN: That's it, babies. You two are such good helpers.
[chuckling] And cute, too!
Let's see what's next...
FRANKIE: He-hey! Yo! What's good, bakers?
FRANKIE: [sniffs] Ahhh... [chuckles]
DOÑA CARMEN: Paciencia, mi reyecito.
Mamá will make sure you get one when they're ready.
FRANKIE: Okay, mommy! [laughs] Can't wait!
FRANKIE/DOÑA CARMEN: Mwah!
ALMA/ANDRÉ: [giggles]
DOÑA CARMEN: Ready for a taste, mis chiquitos?
ALMA:Uh-huh! ANDRÉ: Oh yeah!
ANDRÉ: Mmmm. So sweet...
ALMA: Mm, So chewy...
DOÑA CARMEN: Mmm, so coconutty...
but they just don't taste like the ones from Tres Cocos Bakery.
ANDRÉ: Really? What did we do wrong?
DOÑA CARMEN: Not sure, babycakes.
But I gotta get it right. Let's try again.

None of these coconetes taste like the ones at Tres Cocos Bakery.

Maybe we need a second opinion?
DOÑA CARMEN: (re-energized) Ahh!
¡Buena idea, nenita! [snaps fingers] Vamos.

MR. RAMIREZ: [chewing] Mmmm....
ANDRÉ: Whaddya think, Mr. Ramirez?
MR. RAMIREZ: This one is tasty, and this one is too, but...
they're not quite the same as Tres Cocos Bakery.
DOÑA CARMEN: Right?! It just doesn't taste like it did in the good ol' days.
MR. RAMIREZ: Mhmm.. Maybe ask your Abuelo, Alma.
DOÑA CARMEN: Ah-ha! Come on, mis bebitos!
ABUELO: [chewing] Mmm... Something's missing.
Mmmm. ¡Están delicioso! But...
it's just not the same as Tres Cocos Bakery.
DOÑA CARMEN: Right? We can't figure it out.
Ahh.. gracias.
ABUELO: Uhh, ahh... you can leave those here.
No sense in wasting them.
ABUELO/DOÑA CARMEN: [chuckles]
DOÑA CARMEN: ¡Muchísimas gracias, my little bakers!
I had fun today,
even if the coconetes won't ever be like they were
at Tres Cocos.

DOÑA CARMEN: Ay, mira chicos lindos [chuckle]
ANDRÉ: Well, I guess I'll see you later, Alma.
ALMA: Okay, André.
ALMA: I don't get it. It's the same recipe from the bakery.
Maybe it's not about the recipe?
I gotta think about this.
ABUELO: We'd sit together for hours!
MR. RAMIREZ: And eat coconetes and drink cafecitos.
ALMA: The coconetes WERE delicious...
but that wasn't the only thing they loved about Tres Cocos.
MR. RAMIREZ: We gotta hang out like that again.
ALMA: I think Doña Carmen, Abuelo, and Mr. Ramirez
miss spending time together!
DOÑA CARMEN: Tres Cocos Bakery was the heart of the neighborhood.
ALMA: There sure was a lot going on at Tres Cocos...
[gasp] That's it!
I know what to do!
ALMA: Hey, André!
ANDRÉ: What's up, Alma?
ALMA: We need the recipe for Tres Cocos Bakery.
ANDRÉ: A recipe for the bakery? You have a recipe for THAT?
ALMA: Well, hanging out all day, eating coconetes,
and talking to the whole neighborhood.
THAT'S the recipe for Tres Cocos Bakery.
C'mon!
DOÑA CARMEN: What's the big surprise, cielitos? ABUELO: Can't wait!
ALMA/ANDRÉ: TADA!
DOÑA CARMEN/MR. RAMIREZ /ABUELO: [gasps!]
MR. RAMIREZ ¡No lo puedo creer!/
ABUELO: ¡Increible!
DOÑA CARMEN: Just like Tres Cocos Bakery, no?
ALMA: Yes, yes, yes, yes, YES!
DOÑA CARMEN: What a fantastic surprise, my dumplings!
ANDRÉ: We made my Mom's bookstore
look just like it used to when it was the bakery!
ALMA: Maybe now your coconetes will taste just like you remember.
MR. RAMIREZ: ¡Oye amigo! Care to share?
ABUELO: [chuckles] Of course, mi amigo! André, por favor.
ABUELO/MR. RAMIREZ: [chuckling]
DOÑA CARMEN: Mmmm...
ALMA: What do you think, Doña Carmen?
DOÑA CARMEN: Let me tell you, baby.
These coconetes taste just like...
