Announcer:miracle city,
A spicy cesspool of crime
And villainy.
This is the story of
Manny rivera,
Better known as...
Manny: [roars]
El tigre!
Son of the legendary hero...
White pantera!
Grandson of the evil
Super villain...
Puma loco.

Manny, I'm home.
How are you kids doing?
Bored.
There's nothing fun to do.
Fun is what you make of it.
For instance, today I battled
Giant squid creatures
Trying to steal the jeweled mule
Of maya.
Fun.
The leader escaped with
The mule, but I will find him.
This I swear!
[Laughing]
I thought you quit
Super hero-ing.
Technically, I'm retired.
But as long as there is evil,
And I am young and vital enough
To oppose it, I will.
You're super macho.
The macho-est!
Well, now time to have some
Cocoa with tiny marshmallows,
Then go sleepy-time, no?
[Snoring]
[Whistling "mexican hat dance"]
[Snoring]
[Whistling "mexican hat dance"]
You were right.
Watching your dad sleepis
Less boring than tv.
Hey, he forgot to take
His boots off.
[Sputtering]
He never takes off
The bronze boots of truth.
He gets all his white pantera
Abilities from them.
Oh, yeah?
And those abilities would be...
He can run, jump and fight
With super macho speed
And strength.
And anyone the boot soles touch
Is forced to tell the truth.
Once after eating ribs,
I wiped my hands on a dog.
Cool!
Dude, we gotta take these babies
Out for a spin.
We can't steal
My dad's boots.
Uh, not steal, "borrow."
We'll put them back before
He wakes up.
Hmm, iwillinherit them
Someday, so ishouldknow
How to use them, but...
You are a good son.

Dude, we broke the boots.
Dad and grandpapi: [yawning]
Good morning, father.
Buenos diías, mijo.
Wait!
Something about you is...
Different.
You have...
A new hat?
No.
Oh.
We should talk like this
More often.
Well, I'm off to work.
Distract them.

If I b*at him, my street cred
Will go through the roof, man.

Dad: [screams]
You should stay retired,
Old man.
Crowd: [gasps]
[♪...]
Suddenly, i...
I lost my powers.
I was too weak to...
Fight evil.
Ah, that's how it is
With you heroes.
You get a little older
And you lose your powers
And you're all washed-up.
[Gasps]
[Sputtering]
When I say "washed-up,"
I mean clean.
[Laughing nervously]
Yes, "clean."
[Laughing nervously]
My, look at the time.
He is right.
It's over.
I'm just too old.
Dad, the truth is we...
Ah, at least I raised
A trustworthy son who places
Honesty and integrity
Above all else.
For without that,
I would surely wither away,
A bitter, heartbroken old man.
I'm sorry, you were saying?
Nothing.
Not a thing.
My mind's a blank.
What's there to say?
[Sighs]
[Flies buzzing]
Bah.
So how's your dad?
Well, he hasn't moved from
That spot for weeks.
All he does is eat caramels
And watch canadian soap operas
All day.
Don't talk to me aboot love,
Cammie.
You don't know anything
Aboot it.
[Crying]: boots.
≫ I can't stand it, frida.
I have to tell him the truth.
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
You can't fight lies with truth.
You have to usebiggerlies.
It's simple mathematics.
Well, if it's mathematics...
Grandpapi, do you have any
Plutonium I could borrow?
Plutonium I could borrow? Sock drawer!
Sock drawer!
[Flies buzzing]
Looking good, dad!
Right you are, mr. Rivera,
Sir.
Say, father, would you show
Me how to do your famous
Pantera power punch-kick?
Of course, you'll have to put...
Theseon.
The boots!
No, they glow with
My unworthiness.
Oh, dad...
You promised.
Very well,mijo.
How do they feel?
Well, I don't remember
The searing pain in my feet,
But santa cachucha, I feel like
White pantera!
And slightly taller!
What are you doing?
Running fast.
Very, very fast.
Feel good.
Very, very good.
[Laughing nervously]
Uh, yeah, I bet you could
Take on villains at once.
A hundred villains.
[Speaking quickly]:
You're right, but where can I
Find villains?
I know, calavera,
And that fiendish el oso
Lives there.
He will pay for my
Ignominious defeat.
What?
[Gasps]: no!
You can't....
That evil town calavera
Is an evil pit of evil.
Yes, I will clean up
Evil calavera, evil town,
Defeat all evil villains,
Have revenge on evil el oso,
Now here I go.
Dad can't fight all those
Banditosandel oso by himself,
Not with his powers messed up.
Grandpapi.
Aye, what?
Jeweled mule?
Eh, this isn't mine.
I won it in a card game,
Found it in a cereal box,
I'm my evil twin.
Frida and I stole dad's
Boots and wrecked 'em,
And now they're out of control,
And he's gonna get slaughtered
In calavera!
Manny!
I have done great evil
In my life, but putting
Your own father in danger?
That's worse than evil!
You're right, grandpapi.
I guess there's only one thing
We can do to make this right.
Forget it ever happened?
Forget it ever happened? We must go to calavera.
We must go to calavera.
Evil doers, surrender now
And I will go easy on you!
[Growling]
White pantera: eep!
[Grunts]
I b*at you again, pantera.
You're too old.
You...
You're right, el oso.
Manuel: no, he's not.
There's nothing wrong with you,
Dad.
It's the boots.
I wrecked them.
And didn't tell you.
Thank you for trying
To raise my spirits,
But the truth is...
[Gasps]
Itwasthe boots.
What a relief!
I'm not too old.
I had merely been betrayed
By my only son.
And am powerless to stop
These bloodthirsty villains
From crushing me.
Hooray!

Three...
Dad!
You b*at him without your boots.
Boots or no boots,
I always have the strength
To protect you,mijo.
They're perfect.
How did you get them fixed
So fast?
Is better you don't know.
Let's see if they work.
Papi.
I stole the jeweled mule
Of maya.
I'll go take it back.
I learned my lesson, dad.
I'll never stealyour boots
Again.
Ah, he's such a good boy.

[Gasps] a magazine...
Forsuper villains?
Uh, I only read it
For the ads, see?
A do-it-yourself laser
Tattoo maker.
Just think what I could
Do with it.
[♪...]
[Animal roaring]
Please can I have it?
Please...
Please?
[Sighs]
Manny, tattoos are evil.
Tattoos, piercings, hair dye,
Loose pants, refined sugar,
All evil.
Hmm.
Then I'm gonna hold my breath
Until you change your mind.
[Inhales loudly]
Very well.
If that is your decision.
Of course, if you asphyxiate,
You'll miss today's
Big soccer game.
Super heroes versus
Super villains.
Only once a year.
Family tradition.
And this year, we're having
A special treat...
[Exhales loudly]
[Breathing heavily]
O.k., What's the special treat?
Ah, the treat.
It is the most delicious food
Known to man: guacamole
De los angeles.
Made only from the finest
Avocadoes hand-picked by
Blind monkeys and crushed by
The delicate feet
Of virtuous ladies high in
The andes mountains.
It is very expensive,
But I have been saving money
All year, and at last,
We will taste the glory.
So where is it?
Hmm?
The, the guacamole.
I gave you the money to buy it
This morning.
≫what?
You gave me no money.
You can prove nothing.
Get that guacamole.
The game is about to start.
So you must hurry.
But I'll miss it.
Such is the price of
Treachery.
Grandpapi: you get it.
Dad: you get it.
Grandpapi: you get it.
Dad: you get it.
Grandpapi: you get it.
Dad: you get it.
I'llget it.
Please, father.
Allow me to please make up for
My earlier bad behavior
Earlier, please.
Dad: ah, what a good boy.
Grandpapi: no, he is evil.
Evil...
Manny: [roars]
Hi, mrs. Chichita.
Hola,manito.
[Laughing]
What you doing?
Watching the puppies.
[Screaming]
Frida, you gotta help me
Figure out what to do.
That's horrible, manny.
You can't steal your dad's
Money.
For something lame like
A slingshot.
No, next to the slingshot.
Frida: the tattoo maker?
Dude, you gotta buy it.
But you...
Don't listen to me, I don't
Know what I'm talking about.
Listen to me!
You have to buy it!
Just think how cool it'll be!
My son...
How could you betray me
Like this?
Buy it.
Tattoos are evil.
Buy it!
This will haunt you forever.
Buy it.
Echo.
Echo.
Buy it!
Ooh...
Buy it!
No, yes, no, yes, no!
Yes!
Manny and frida: whoa...
[Whispers]: tattoo maker.
Frida, I can't go home
Without guacamole.
The giant floating tattoo
Dad head won't let me.
Woman: perhapsican be
Of assistance.
I just happen to have
Something that might help you.
Guacamole de los anglos!
I don't know.
Mysterious old lady...
Emerging from the shadows...
Frida: seems kind of sketchy.
It's free.
Sold.
Sold. [Laughing]
[Laughing]
I knew the riveras had to
Buy that guacamole today.
Now they have fallen for
The totally brilliant trap of...
Dr. Chipotle, junior.
The filthy swine!
I remember when el tigre
And white pantera captured
My father.
He was minding his own business,
Using his jalapeño monster
To rob the miracle city bank.
And they took him!
For no reason!
That very night, I swore an oath
Of vengeance.
I... Don't... Like... You!
Now, at last, they will pay!
Weren't you just dressed up
Like an old lady?
[Fly buzzing]
This doesn't taste
How I expected.
He did it.
It was her idea.
He made me.
She hypnotized me.
It tastes...
Even better.
Whew.
[Loud chewing]
[Burping]
[Farting]
I guess we'll just be going.
Don't you want to watch
The game?
Manuel: no, thanks.
We're gonna gonotgive
Each other tattoos.
Yes, yes, yes, very nice.
[Burping and farting]
[Stomach growling]
Oh...
Aye, aye...
[Grunting and groaning]
[Screaming]
[Screaming]
Helping the poor!
Monsters.
Face the wrath of...
[Roars]
El tigre.
[Gasps]
Wait!
Those monsters...
They're dad and grandpapi.
[Roaring]
Acid guacamole.
So, el tigre, we meet again.
And you are... Who?
Dr. Chipotle, junior.
Son of dr. Chipotle, senior.
Uh, doesn't ring a bell.
The mad scientist?
Has a metal arm like mine?
On the cover of "villains
Quarterly" this month?
I just read the ads.
Wait, you're stinky ramirez's
Little brother.
Forget it!
My evil zombie guacamole
Has taken over your dad
And grandpa.
And I now command them both...
Destroy you!
Ha!
They would never hurt me!
Right, dad?
Whoa, almost never!
[Roaring]
Manny and frida: [screaming]
Hola,manito.
Manny: [grunting]
Grandpapi: [roaring]
We gotta get them
Back to normal.
How?
[Laughing]
Those pinheads will never
Discover my zombie guacamole's
One weakness: guacamole
De los angeles.
Really?
Thanks, dude.
Swine!
There's only one way to get
The guacamole de los angeles.
I've got to return
The tattoo maker.
Keep 'em busy.
Oh, they'll be busy.
Busy eating me!
[Clucking]
[Clucking] [grunting]
[Grunting]
[Grunting] sold out?
Sold out?

Dude, you are fast.

Evil guacamole, eat this!

Frida: manny, no.

Hey, you're just a little kid.
Look, a thing.
Where?
Aw, man.
[Sputtering]
Wha...?
What's going on?
[Groaning]
Manny!
I'm o.k., Except for
My internal organs, bones
And skin.
[Groans]
He saved us all
From the evil guacamole.
Thank you, man-
Wait, what evil guacamole?
Duh.
The free stuff we got
From that creepy old lady
So manny could use your money
To buy the tattoo maker.
Dang.
Manuel pablo gutierrez
Sobrana equihua rivera,
What is going on here?
We can explain everything.
See, there were these aliens,
And, and then they grabbed
My face...
[Sighs]
No, frida, it's time to tell
The truth.
And worst of all,
I made you guys miss
The big game.
So you stole money from me
And you lied.
But you also risked your life
To save us and then told
The truth.
Let's see, what would be
An appropriate punishment?
[Breathing heavily]
How much... Longer?
Just about...
A year.
