Alma: "Alma-Papi Day"

Papi: Not here.

Alma: Huh, not under here.

Ummm...

Papi: Hmmm. I know I left them here somewhere, pero donde?

Alma: It's Alma-Papi Day.

We're gonna spend the whole day together. Starting with...

The Midday Dancebreak!

Papi: Ah ha!

Found my dancing shoes. ¿Lista, Almita?

Alma: Ready!

Papi: Then let the Alma-Papi Day begin!

Alma/Papi: Uh-huh! Midday Dancebreak! Oh yeah!

Unhuh! Oh oh dale! Uh uh uhuh!

[Phone rings]

Papi: Uh... I should probably get that. Just in case it's an emergency.

Alma: [Humming] [Phone ringing]

Papi: Hello, Dr. Rivera speaking.

Remy: Hi Dr. Rivera, it's Remy. Look, it's Buck.

Papi: [Whispering] It's Remy. It's about her dog, Buck.

Alma: [Humming]

Remy: Buck was fine when he woke up this morning.

But then all of a sudden he just started sneezing and sneezing and...

[Buck sneezing loudly]

Papi: ¡Salud!

[Buck sneezing loudly] Remy: Uh! There he goes again.

Papi: [Whispering] It's Buck. He can't stop sneezing.

[Buck sneezing loudly over phone]

Alma: Whoa. That's a lot of sneezing.

Papi: It sounds like he probably has a cold, maybe allergies...

[Buck sneezing loudly]

But nothing too serious.

[Buck sneezing loudly]

Remy: See, he just won't stop doin' it.

[Buck sneezing loudly]

Remy: Aww, Buck.

Alma: Awww, poor Buck.

Remy: Are you busy right now? Can I come see you?

Papi: The clinic's actually closed today.

Remy: Awww...

Papi: How about you bring Buck by first thing tomorrow morning?

Alma: I think Buck could really use Papi's help. Is there anything we can do?

I gotta think about this...

Papi: Then let the Alma-Papi Day begin!

Alma/Papi: Uh-huh! Midday Dancebreak! Oh yeah!

Unhuh! Oh oh dale! Uh uh uhuh!

Alma: I want to spend the whole day with Papi. That's why we're doing Alma-Papi Day.

But if Papi stays here and sees Buck

then we won't be together... right?

But, if we stay here, I can still spend time with Papi.

[Buck barking happily] Alma/Papi: [Giggle]

Alma: It doesn't matter where we are, as long as we're together.

[Gasp] That's it!

I know what to do!

Papi: Okay, Remy, we'll see you tomorrow...

Alma: Papi, wait!

Papi: Uh. Hold on, Remy.

¿Qué pasa, mija?

Alma: Remy can bring her dog in now.

Papi: Uh, what about the Midday Dancebreak?

Alma: Buck needs you! And I can be your assistant.

We can go to the dancebreak after.

[Buck sneezing loudly]

Papi: I love that idea.

Alma: Sa-weet!

This is gonna be so good.

[Buck sneezing]

Remy/Papi: Aww!

Papi: You're okay, Buck. That's a good boy.

[Buck sneezing]

Alma: ¡Salud!

Papi: Let's see what's going on.

Light, por favor.

Alma: Here you go.

Papi: Thanks.

Hmmmm... Hm!

Alma: Is he good or what?

Papi: Mmmmm...

Stethoscope!

Alma: Stethoscope!

Remy: So what's the word?

Papi: Mmm, not sure yet, Remy.

Did Buck eat anything he wasn't supposed to? Or do anything out of the ordinary?

Remy: Mmmmm, nope.

[Buck sneezing loudly]

Alma: You're okay, Buck. That's a good boy.

Hey, what's this?

Are these flowers from the park?

Remy: Oh Yeah! I forgot.

Buck chased a squirrel right through a bunch of flowers this morning.

Didntcha, boy?

[Buck the dog sniffing and then sneezing]

Papi: ¡Salud!

Alma! I think you just found our answer!

Alma: I did?

Papi: Mmhmm. Just like people, dogs can have allergies too.

Buck must be having a reaction to the flowers.

Remy: Way to work it out, Alma!

Alma: Thanks, Remy!

Am I good or what?

Papi: A quick allergy shot should stop his sneezing.

Ready?

Alma: Yup.

Who's a good boy, Buck? Huh? Who's a good boy?

Yes you are, yes you are.

Papi: Annnnd... all set!

Alma: Way to go, Buck! You did great.

[Buck barking happily]

Papi: He should feel better soon.

Remy: [rapping] You stopped Buck from sayin' ah ah achoo.

Thank ya doc and Assistant Alma too!

Alma: Sure thing Remy! Papi: Anytime!

Remy: Bye.

Alma: Bye! Papi: Adiós.

Papi: Nice work, Almita. Couldn't have done it without you.

And we still have time to celebrate at the Midday Dancebreak!

Papi: Mmm mmm mmm! Alma: Yess!

Papi: Let the Alma-Papi Day begin! Again!

Alma/Papi: [Giggle]

Papi: Go, Alma! That's right!

Papi: Mhm! Uh-huh! Uh uh uhuh! Alma: Go, Papi! Go, Papi! Break it down! Break it down!

Alma: I know that sound...

Papi, look!

Alma/Papi: The Midday Dancebreak!

[People cheering and dancing in the background]

Uh uh uhuh! Midday Dancebreak! Oh ya! Uh uh uhuh!

James: Hey, Ruben! Alma!

Alma: Hi, Mr. King! Papi: Hey, what's up, James?

James: I was actually on my way to see you, Ruben.

I could use some help with Fernie...

[Fernie squeaks]

Alma: Awww. Fernie doesn't look so good.

James: Think you could take a look?

[Music playing in the background] ♪♪

Oh, sorry, I didn't even ask if you're working today...

Papi: Uhhh.

Alma: We are!

Right, Papi?

Papi: You sure, Almita?

Alma: Un huh!

Papi: You heard her!

James: Oh, good.

[Fernie squeaks]

Papi: Mm-hmmm. Just as I thought...

Fernie has a mild case of pink eye.

Nothing a few eye drops can't solve.

James: Thanks for looking at her, you two.

Alma: [Giggle] Where are you trying to go, Fernie?

Papi: This should help keep you safe and calm.

Assistant Alma, can you hold her?

Alma: You got it, Dr. Rivera!

[Fernie squeaks nervously]

[Giggle] You're so wiggly.

Papi: [Chuckle] I get it, you've got places to go. But you also need these eye drops.

Alma: I think she wants you.

James: [Chuckle] Nah, I think she wants these...

[Fernie squeaks happily]

She's got great taste in snacks.

[Fernie squeaks]

Alma: I got it!

Mr. King, can I have a carrot, please?

James: Mmmhmm.

[Fernie squeaks]

Alma: Look what I have for you, Fernie.

Just a few eye drops and it's yours!

[Fernie squeaks]

Papi: Buena idea, Almita. Keep distracting her.

Annnnnd, all done!

Alma: Go ahead. It's all yours.

James: Thanks again! See ya!

Alma: Bye.

Papi: See you James.

[Chuckle] Nice work, Assistant Alma!

Alma: Gracias, Papi, you too!

[Phone blings]

Papi: Ay, lo siento, the dancebreak is over now.

Alma: That's okay! I'm too tired to dance anyway.

[Alma's stomach gurgles]

But I am hungry.

[Papi's stomach gurgles]

Papi: Oh! [Chuckle] Guess I am too!

Whaddaya say we wash up and go grab something to eat, huh?

Alma: Lez go!

[Sniffs] [Sighs]

Nothing says Alma-Papi Day like fresh hot pizza, with extra cheese!

Mrs. Martinez: ¡Oye, Rubén! Can you help me, por favor?

Papi: ¿Qué pasó?

Mrs. Martinez: It's Checkers.

I told Mr. Ramirez I'd walk him. But he climbed up a tree!

Alma: Pizza can wait. Checkers needs us!

¡Rubén...

Papi: and Alma...

Alma/Papi: al rescate!

[Checkers meows]

Papi: You're up, Assistant Alma!

Alma: Cat food, comin' up!

Mrs. Martinez: Come on, hop into the bucket.

Papi: You got this, Checkers.

Alma: Delicious food, just for youuu!

Mrs. Martinez: ¡Ay, casi!

Papi: Huh. That usually works.

Mrs. Martinez: Ah! Now what?

Alma: Waitaminute... I got it!

Can I have your backpack, please?

If Checkers doesn't want food, we'll use something he can't resist.

There's nothing Checkers loves more than...

Shoes!

Oh Checkerrrsss! Look what I have for you...

[Checkers meows with interest]

Come on, Checkers! You know you want it.

Come on, Checkers. There you go...

Mrs. Martinez: I think it's working!

Alma: Here you go, come on. Come on.

[Checkers meows]

Alma: Woo hoo! Papi: ¡Wepa! Mrs. Martinez: ¡Eso es!

Alma: Shoes... works every time.

[Checkers purring]

Mrs. Martinez: No more tree climbing expeditions for you, gatito.

¡Ay, mil gracias, Rubén y Alma! You really saved the day.

I better get Checkers back to the shoe shop before he tries anything else.

Papi: Hasta luego.

Mrs. Martinez: Adios.

[Subway rumbles in distance]

Papi: Thanks for all your help today.

I'm just sorry our Alma-Papi Day didn't go the way we planned.

Alma: Are you kidding? This has been the sa-weetest Alma-Papi Day!

Papi: Even without the dancebreak?

Alma: Ohhhhh yeah. It was perfect.

Alma/Papi: Mmmmm!

Alma: Well... there is one thing that would make it better.

Pizza!

Papi: How about we go home and warm it up?

And we can have our own End of the Day Dancebreak.

Alma/Papi: Uh-huh! End of the Day Dancebreak!

Papi: Oh yeah!

Alma: A whole day with Papi, warm pizza, and our very own dancebreak?

Alma-Papi Day can't get any sa-weeter than that.

Papi/Alma: Uh! Uh! Uh-huh! Bow bow bow boowwww! Oh ya oh ya!

Is there anything I can do? I gotta think about this...

Eddie: I really wanted to go. She's my favorite, favorite singer.

Alma: Eddie was so sad that he can't see Elyssa B.

I wonder how I'd feel if I couldn't go to a Sonny Soto concert?

He's my favorite, favorite singer.

Mami, are we going to see Sonny Soto?

Mami: Ay lo siento, Almita. The tickets were all sold out.

Alma: [Sigh]

Oh. I'd be sad too if that happened.

Eddie: I'm her biggest fan!

Alma: I like Elyssa B's music, but Eddie loves it!

If we had an extra ticket, he'd be way way wayyy happier than I am to go to the concert.

Oh! I know what to do!

Beto! Wait!

Alma: I like Elyssa B, but she's Eddie's favorite singer.

So I wanna give my ticket to him, if that's okay with you.

Beto: Whoa, really? You'd give him your ticket?

Alma: Yeah, Eddie's a way, way, wayyy bigger fan of Elyssa B than I am.

Beto: Cool with me, but let's go ask my mom. She's at the salon.

Alma: Uh, no she's not. The salon is closed.

Beto: Huh? I saw her there this morning.

Alma: Really? Let's go check! I'll ask my mami to take us.

Alma: Uh uh! See? Closed.

Mami: Hi Elena, the kids have something to ask you.

Mrs. Martinez: Uh huh.

Beto: It's very important.

Mrs. Martinez: [Whispered] ¡Pasen! iPasen!

Alma: Is it me, or is Mrs. Martinez acting kinda... funny.

So, how come you're here if the salon is closed?

Mrs. Martinez: Well, it's closed to everyone, except...

[whispered] my special client.

¿Qué pasa? What's this very important question you have for me?

Beto: Okay. I told Alma we had an extra ticket to see Elyssa B tonight.

Alma: And I wanted to go so I asked my mami...

Beto: And she said yes...

But then we saw Eddie... who was really, really sad ‘cause he didn't have a ticket.

Alma: Eddie is Elyssa B's biggest fan!

Beto: Yeah, and that made me kinda sad ‘cause I wish we had extra, extra ticket for him.

Alma: Same. But you don't.

Beto: And thennnn... Alma said that she'd give her ticket to Eddie!

Alma: Un huh! Sooo... is it okay if Eddie goes instead of me?

Mrs. Martinez: All good with me. You sure, Alma?

Alma: Totally sure. Eddie even has his own claves to play at the concert.

He'll be so happy.

Mrs. Martinez: That's really kind of you to give him your ticket.

Special Client: Yeah!

Elyssa B: It really is!

Alma/Beto: Elyssa B!??

Mami: I can't believe it.

Beto: You're my mom's special client?!

Elyssa B: Yup. Hiii!

Beto: What?

Alma: How?

Beto: When?

Alma: Why?

Mrs. Martinez: I'm getting Elyssa ready for her concert.

But no one knows she's here. That's why the salon's closed.

Alma: Ohhh. Beto: Cool.

I can't believe I'm seeing you here... and then I'll see you again at the concert!

Elyssa B: Yeah you will.
