[relaxed music]

- [squawks] Special delivery!

- Ooh, is it
from my pen pal in Kyoto?

It's been a while
since he's said konnichiwa!

No, it's the water
and power bill.

- [gasps]

This isn't a bill!
This is highway robbery!

- Well, it is the bill

for both apartments
and the mercado.

Things can add up.

Oh my, that is high!

- [sighs]
It was already high last month.

Now it's practically doubled,
like my heart rate!

[both start]

- If the bill continues
to be this high,

I'm afraid we're
going to have to make

some cutbacks.

Maybe we should consider

canceling our anniversary trip,Rosita.
- Maybe so, amor.

We can go again next year.

- It's a shame, though.

We've never missed
our trip in years.

- Wait, what trip?

- It's a tradition we started

when we first moved
to Great Lakes City.

- We wanted our first night out
to be special,

and Abuelo knew
how much I love dancing,

so he found us
the perfect place.

- We were the king and queen
of the dance floor,

Ronnie Anne!
Oh, you should have seen us.

- And every year since,

we've gone dancing
at the same ballroom

and stayed at a fancy hotel.

- That is the mushiest
but sweetest thing

I've ever heard.

You can't give up
on your tradition!

- But mija, with this bill--

- Don't worry, I'm sure
I can find a way

to bring it down.

- Okay, so the reason
I called you here--

- [squawks] Hi roomie!
- Ugh, stop!

Why is this parrot
so obsessed with me?

He won't leave me alone.
It's even worse at night!

- [squawks]
Smell ya later, roomie!

- Forget about Sergio.
We've got a bigger problem.

Abuela and Abuelo might have

to cancel
their anniversary trip.

both: What?

- The water and power bill
is too high,

and it started going up
when we moved in.

- Do we really use that much?

- Well, Bobby...

you do love your marathon
video chats with Lori,

and Mom, you use

a giant espresso machine
five times a day.

- But I need energy to get
through my night shifts!

- I'm just as guilty.

I've been using

way too many gadgets
in my room.

- I didn't realize
it was that bad!

- We have to cut back,

and I've got some ideas
how we can do it.

[door slams]

- [exhales]

Hey, sweetie,
whatcha up to?

- Putting my stuff in storage.

Everything that uses
electricity has to go.

- [squawks] Fight the power!

- Sorry, Mom,
but that should go, too.

- But my feet
are k*lling me!

- I read that tennis balls
are great for massages.

- [barks]

- Lalo, drop it!

Oof!

I've got a better idea.

I'll give you a foot massage.

- Ooh, that's nice!

Maybe cutting back
won't be so bad.

- Boo Boo Bear, go grab
a blender and some fruit.

We can make my new
protein smoothie together!

- I'm sorry, babe, I can't.

We're trying to save
electricity.

- Oof, been there.

Well, you can just hang out
with me while I make mine.

- Actually, babe, I gotta run.

I'm only supposed to talk
for five minutes,

and the timer's
about to go off.

- Wait, you literally
have me on a tim--

- Oh!

Oh no, no, no, no,
no, no, oh no, oh no!

- I'm sure Lori
will get over it.

Remember, it's for Abuela
and Abuelo's trip!

- So beautiful.

[cool jazz music]

- Wow, you're getting rid
of your mini fridge, too?

- That's dedication.

Aren't you worried
your food will get swiped?

- Naw, I put my name
on everything,

so I should be fine.

- [yawns]

- Wait, wait!
You don't need coffee.

I got you this energy gum
from the mercado instead!

- Ooh, papaya.
Guess I could try it.

- And Bobby, I figured out
how you can make

Lori's protein smoothie
without a blender.

Abuela's molcajete!

- Old school, I love it!
I'll start with some bananas.

- Maybe try peeling them first.

[lively standup bass music]

Okay, two-minute combination
shower, tooth brushing,

and clothes washing, go!

[alarm buzzes]

Dang it.

All right, guys.
Ready to see how we did?

- I bet we cut
the bill in half!

- This can't be right.
It just keeps going up!

- Are you kidding me?

I've been chewing
this gum all week,

and it's starting
to make me crazy!

[laughs unstably]

- And Lori is furious with me!

Look at the emojis
she texted me!

Poop, poop, poop, and fire!

- So if it's not us
using all the energy,

then who is it, huh?
You wanna tell me that, huh?

- That's what
we need to find out.

No more gum.

a curling iron

[meaty flapping sound]

all: Ugh.

- I think we've found
our energy hogs.

[salsa music]

As you can see,
the water and power bill

has gotten
way out of control!

Abuela and Abuelo
need our help.

- Well, it must be you guys.

The bill was fine
before you moved in.

- Carl!
- It's okay.

We thought it was us, too,
but we cut back,

and it didn't make a dent.

Party time!

- Sergio, stop!
Where did you even get this?

- Hey, Sergio, check it out!

- [squawks] Pretty light!

♪

- Pretty good trick.
- Thanks, CJ.

Now, if we want to save
Abuela and Abuelo's

anniversary trip,
we all have to pitch in.

- We're in.
- How can we help?

- Great!
I have some ideas...

[upbeat music]

Instead of using
all these tools for your hair,

why not try a natural look?

- [groans] Fine.

Just wish it weren't the most
humid day of the year.

- Woah.

- "Woah" is right.
I totally rock this look!

- See?
You can still make your pirates

walk the plank in the sink.

- Yeah!
Look, it's low tide!

- Photography's great,
but why not try painting?

- You're right.
I'm sure I can still be true

to my vision
in this medium.

- It's actually even more fun
to run the train yourself.

Choo choo!
- Okay, I'll run it myself,

but I'm not making
the train noises.

That's for babies.

- Suit yourself.

- Choo choo!
[makes train noises]

- Instead of your plug-in car,

you can take
the mercado bike to work!

- Okay, I guess I can
use the exercise, ha ha!

to pedal backward to brake!

but I'm perfectly capable
of operating a--

Ow.

Are you okay?

- Anything for Abuela
and Abuelo's trip, right?

[chuckles]
- Right.

You all did
an awesome job this week!

I think we're going to see
a big difference in the bill.

[horrified gasps]

- It's even higher than before!

- You mean I made
choo-choo noises for nothing?

- I guess Abuela and Abuelo

won't be able
to go on their trip.

- [crying]
It's such a tragedy!

I don't get it!

How can the bill
not have gone down?

Maybe if we
switch to candles...

take monthly showers...

give up clean laundry...

I have to think of something.

Abuela and Abuelo
are counting on me!

Oh, come on!
I was saving those taquitos!

He's supposed
to bunk in your room.

- He wouldn't let me sleep!

He just wants to stay up
all night

talking and playing,

so I started taking him down

to the mercado
right before bed.

- Sergio's been having
a giant party down there.

He's the one using up
all the water and electricity.

- What?!

Sorry not sorry!

- I just wanted some sleep.

I didn't know he'd be having
a rager every night.

I might have a solution
for everyone's problems...

to thank you again.

- Because of
your detective work,

I get to take this beautiful
flor for a night on the town.

And speaking of flowers,

my mom helped me
order these for you.

We tried to get a good match.

You sure you're okay
rooming with him?

I don't want you

I've worked out a system.

once saw Yoon in a store?

queso fundido for you

Nobody's gonna bug us
down here.

Gonna turn this old TV into

Yeah!
You just rip the guts out,

throw in a couple of trees,

iguana condo.

a mirror in there.

organic dog food.

Abuelo ordered it
special for you.

I saw you and Sid
on the roof earlier.

I hope Nelson
didn't scare you off.

- No, not at all!

It was just
a little busy up there.

it can be finding

some privacy
in this building.

the roof to yourselves,

just say the word

the hallway this morning

with my paddle ball practice.

somewhere else to hang out.

to use the space,
it's all yours.

in my apartment.

ask you to do that.

a little crowded sometimes.
Catch you later!

- You do?!

- Wait, no.

It's just a stick.

in your way earlier.

I noticed you and Sid
scooted out of the lobby

pretty quickly.

- No worries.
We're fine.

- Well, you know the lobby
doesn't belong to me.

It's for the whole building
to use.

If I'm ever in your way,
just say the word.

- Oh, uh, thanks, Georgia.
That's really thoughtful.

- Of course!

- Well if you and Ronnie Anne
want to use the roof,

I'm happy to give up
my time there!

but if you and Sid
want to share the hallway

outside my apartment with me,
you definitely can.

about keeping it a secret.

- I do, too!
When I was at the park

this afternoon, people
in our building kept offering

to share their space with us.
