Alma: "Big Kid Hangout"

I need this,

and this.

And I need all of these.

Junior: Um, excuse me, why do you need so many clementines?

Alma: They're for Eddie and his friends. I wanna make sure I have enough.

Since, ya know, everybody loves clementines.

Papi: Almita, ready to go to Eddie's hangout?

Alma: Totally!

Junior: How come I can't go with Alma?

No one's better at hanging out than me. Ask anybody!

Papi: Definitely true.

But this hangout is for big kids.

Junior: Ohhh.

That's okay. I'll be a big kid someday.

Papi: Have fun, mija.

Alma: I will!

Papi: Mwah!

Junior: We're gonna have fun too.

I'm gonna have a hangout with Papi!

Alma: Sweet! See ya later!

Junior: Bye! Papi: Adios!

Alma: Big kid hangout, here I come.

Eddie: Nice, so awesome!

Alma: Hi Eddie!

Eddie: Hey, Alma! JaVon: C'mon over!

Alma: JaVon, are you gonna hang out with us too?

JaVon: Aww, not tonight.

I'm done kid-sitting Eddie, and I'm heading home as soon as his mom's here.

Tía Gloria: And here I am!

¡Wepa! Looks like you've already got the party started!

Becka: Uh huh. Oh yeah! Uh uh uh uh! Kids: [Giggle]

Tía Gloria: Thanks, JaVon! Now I can hug my Eddie-

Mmmh!

Same time next week, JaVon?

JaVon: See you then.

Nice hanging with you, Eddie!

Uhh!

Becka: Bye!

Eddie: C'mon, Alma, let me introduce you to my friends.

Alma: This hangout is gonna be gooood!

[Party music plays]

Becka: Go, Alma! Go Alma, go, go, go Alma! Kids: Wow!

Alma: Ya!

Becka: You're such a great dancer!

Alma: Thanks, Becka!

Eddie: Alma, these are my friends from school: Dylan...

Dylan: Hi!

Eddie: ...And Avery.

Avery: Hey!

Alma: Hi!

Avery: I really like your backpack, it's super cute.

Alma: Thanks!

Eddie: What'd you bring?

Alma: All my best hangout stuff.

I mean, what's a hangout without clementines?

Eddie: Mmm, clementines.

Becka: Yum, clementines.

Avery: Ooh, yum!

Dylan: How did you know these are my very favorite?

Alma: Told you everyone loves them.

Eddie: Here you go, prima.

Alma: Thanks!

Avery: Why'd you peel Alma's clementine?

Eddie: I always peel them for my little cousin.

Alma: Little? Who? Me?

Well, he is older, I guess.

Becka: Okay, everyone, check out this new trick I learned in class.

Alma: Whoa! Dylan: That's cool.

Alma: That's way way wayyy sa-weet!

Becka: I haven't even gotten to the sweetest part, watch this!

Hmm! Uh huh, oh ya!

Alma: [Gasp] Whoa!

You're totally right. That is the sweetest part!

Avery: Totally! Everyone in our class does that trick too.

I practice it, like, every day.

Becka: Here you go.

Becka: Oh yeah! Eddie: Wepa!

Avery: [Giggle] Tada!

Kids: Woah! Awesome! You're good!

Alma: WOOWWWWWW!

Avery: Wanna try?

Alma: Uhhh...

None of the kids in my class do that.

I've never even seen that!

But, it doesn't look too hard.

Sure, I'll try!

[Gasp] Phew!

See, not too hard.

Becka: Yeah!

Eddie: Watch out!! Dylan: Whoa!

Alma: Whoa!

Alma: [Gasp] Whoops! Becka: Whoa! Dylan: Uhh Ohh.

Tía Gloria: No prob, Almita!

I'll get it tomorrow.

Party on!

Eddie: Gracias Mama. Dylan: Mmm, ooh, that looks good.

Alma: Sorry, Becka.

Becka: It's all good!

Alma: Phew!

Kids: [Laughing]

Alma: Good one.

Eddie: Have any of you read the “Mixed-Up Magician” book?

Dylan: Yes, I've already read it twice!

Becka/Avery: It. Is. Awesome!

Becka/Avery: [Gasp] Jinx!

Becka/Avery: [Gasp] Jinx again!

Kids: [Laughing]

Eddie: Remember when they rode the flying bicycle?

Becka: And found the floating house?

Avery: And the upside down wizard?!

Becka/Avery: [Laughing]

Alma: I've never even heard of this book!

Uhh, Eddie?

Eddie: Here you go prima.

Alma: Whoa, the words in the book are so tiny!

Are there even any pictures?

Eddie: Just on the cover. It's a chapter book.

Alma: Ohhh.

Dylan: My very, very favorite part was when the Purple Magician

turned people into slopgoblins by pointing his magic wand at them!

Kids: [Laughing]

Alma: What's a slopgoblin?

Eddie: Oh, they're the best part!

They're huge and messy and they're always covered in mud!

Becka: And they growl and stomp!

Oooh ahhhehh!

Avery: I hope I never get turned into a slopgoblin!

Dylan: Then you better hide ‘cause guess what?!

Dylan: [Villain voice] I'm the Purple Magician!

Becka: Ahh! Eddie: Ehh!

Dylan: [Villain voice] And I'm gonna...

...turn you into slopgoblins with my magic wand, ha ha ha ha!

Alma: I gotta find somewhere to hide!

Dylan: [Villain voice] Ha ha ha ha ha, I'm gonna find you!

I've got you! Becka/Avery: [Gasp]

Dylan: Ha ha ha ha!

Becka/Avery: [Growling monster sounds]

Eddie: Waa! Dylan: Ha ha ha ha ha, I gotcha!

Eddie: Ohhh no, I'm turning into a-

[goblin voice] slopgoblin!

Becka/Eddie: [Growling monster goblin sounds]

Alma: [Gasp] He saw me!

Becka/Eddie: [Growling monster goblin sounds]

Alma: [Gasp]

Dylan: [Villain voice] You're a slopgoblin now! Alma: Ahh!

Dylan: Ha ha ha ha ha!

Alma: Ohh no! [Giggle]

Rar- ruff- ruff! Ruff- ruff- ruff!

Dylan: Uh, slopgoblins aren't like dogs.

Alma: Oh, I, I haven't read the book.

But you all sound like Chacho chewing a sock,

so that's how I thought a slopgoblin acted.

Eddie: [Giggle] Chacho does kinda sound like that.

Kids: [Laughing]

Becka: Do you wanna borrow my “Mixed-Up Magician” book?

Alma: Sure, but...

Right now I'm reading the new Carlotta Clues book,

where she has to find a hamster in the museum.

Have you read it yet?

Eddie: Uhh uhh!

Becka: No, sorry.

Avery: But I love Carlotta Clues!

Alma: Really?

Avery: I used to read them too when I was a little kid.

Alma: Little kid?

Carlotta Clues is not a little kid book!

Tía Gloria: Hey, slopgoblins, time for a banana smoothie break!

Kids: Thank you!

Eddie: Mmm smoothies.

Becka: Mmm banana.

Dylan: Mmm! Banana is definitely my very, very, very favorite kinda smoothie.

Alma: Umm, and speaking of bananas...

Introducing, Captain Banana!

Oof!

Kids: [Gasp]

Becka: I'll grab paper towels.

Don't worry Alma, I made big spills all the time when I was little too.

Alma: Why do they keep thinking I'm a little kid?!

I am NOT a little kid!

Eddie: Uhhh, what's up?

Alma: I'm going home.

Becka: Alma, wait! Eddie: Come back!

Junior/Papi: Roar, roar! [Door slams shut]

Papi: Is the hangout over?

Alma: Oh them, they're still hanging out.

But not me. Uh-uh.

They think I'm a little kid.

I spill one smoothie and it gets all over Captain Banana and that makes me a little kid.

But ya know what?! I am not a little kid! Not at all!

Papi: Let's take a deep breath in...

Alma/Junior/Papi: [Deep inhale]

Papi: ...And let it out.

Alma/Junior/Papi: [Deep exhale]

Papi: Muy bien. Soo... what do you wanna do?

You wanna go back to the hangout?

Stay here and hangout with us?

Or read a book? Watch a movie? It's up you.

Alma: I think I need a break.

Papi: Okay, and I'll wash Captain Banana, mija.

Alma: [Sigh] I don't know what to do now.

I gotta think about this...

Eddie: I always peel them for my little cousin.

Avery: I used to read them too when I was a little kid.

Becka: Don't worry Alma, I made big spills all the time when I was little too.

Alma: I was having fun until they treated me like I was a little kid.

Ugh, that made me feel so mad!

And I am NOT a little kid.

JaVon: Nice hanging with you, Eddie!

Alma: Heyyy, Eddie's a little kid to JaVon...

Junior: That's okay. I'll be a big kid someday.

Alma: Hmm. I guess anyone can be a little kid to a bigger kid.

And I am littler than them.

Ahh, I know what to do!

Papi: Here ya go.

Smoothie free.

Alma: Thanks Papi!

Papi: So what do you want to do, Almita, hmm?

Alma: I want to go back to the hangout. I am littler than they are.

And that's okay. Papi: Mmhmm.

Alma: Aaand they didn't mean to hurt my feelings.

Papi: Mwah! Proud of you. ¿Lista?

Alma: Lez go!

Papi: [Chuckle]

Alma: Eddie? What are you doing here?

Eddie: I dunno what I did, but I know I made you upset.

Sorry, prima.

Alma: I was mad ‘cause I felt like a little kid with you and your friends.

But I'm okay now.

Eddie: Yeah, I get it.

Alma: But I wanna go back to the hangout!

Eddie: Then come on!

Alma: Bye.

Papi: Have fun you two.

Alma: Captain Banana and I are back!

Kids: Yeah! Whoo!

Alma: Oh! That reminds me, I know a banana joke!

Eddie: Alma has the best jokes!

Alma: [Clears throat] Why do bananas never get lonely?

‘Cause they always hang out in bunches!

Kids: [Laughing] Alma: Get it?

Dylan: Whoops! Uhh oh.

Alma: That's okay! We'll help you clean it up.

Even big kids make big spills sometimes.

Alma: I'm reading. Carlotta just found a trap door that goes to a secret room.

I'm about to find out who the Banjo Bandit is!

Junior: Who is it?! Who is it?!

Alma: I dunno. I haven't gotten to that part yet.

Junior: Oh, gotcha.

Wanna play with us?

Alma: No thanks.

I wanna keep reading my book and find out how it ends.

Junior: Can you read it to us?

Alma: Sure!

Alma: 'Carlotta walks into the, Junior: Roar, roar roar.

Alma: se-cret room...' Junior: Roar, roar roar, roar roar.

Alma: ‘She spots banjo strings and--' Junior: Roar, roar!

Alma: I'm not done yet. How ‘bout later?

Junior: Okay, I'll wait.

Boing-boing-boing! Roarrr!

Alma: I've gotta find a quieter spot to finish my book.

Junior: Boing-boing! Roarrr!

Check out Space Steggie, Alma!

Alma? MmMmm?

Alma: [Gasp]

This is getting soooo good.

Junior: Um, excuse me.

Can I have that pillow, please?

Alma: This one?

Junior: Uh-huh. I'm building a pillow fort.

Alma: Okay.

Junior: Thanks!

Can I have the rest of them too?

Alma: You need all of them?

Junior: Yep! It's gonna be the biggest pillow fort in the Bronx.

Eh, eh. Excuse me, please.

Alma: Okay, okay.

Junior: [Gasp] Ooh! Wanna help me build my fort?

Alma: No. I wanna finish my book.

Junior: Ah! Heavy!

Alma: [Sigh] I'll just find a new place to read.

Junior: Eh, eh, hmm, eh!

Junior: [Dinosaur voice] Roar! Stomp, stomp!

Alma: [Sigh]

Junior: Vroom vroom, dino construction crew. Coming through.

Alma: Papi, can I go to Lucas's house, por favor?

I want to finish my book where it's quiet.

Papi: Sure, Almita.

Alma: Thanks Papi.

Hi, Lucas.

Lucas: Ooh! "The Case of the Banjo Bandit!"

The ending is sooo good! Especially when Carlotta...

Alma: Lalalalalaaa! No spoilers!

Lucas: Okay, okay, okay.

Alma: I'm looking for a quiet place to finish it.

Can I read here?

Lucas: Totally.

Alma: Thanks.

Banjo Bandit here I come!

Alma: Ahh, nice and quiet.

Little brothers can be very distracting sometimes.

Lucas: I can see that. But, I wish I had a little brother to play with.

Alma: Yeah, you're right. They are pretty great.

Lucas: If I had one, I'd do sooo many things with him.

Like play ball, sing songs, build rock towers...

Junior: As a little brother, I'd want to do all of those things.

And I'm the best little brother in the whole Bronx.

Junior: Ask Alma.

Alma: Mmhmm.

[Gasp] I just got the sa-weetest idea!

Junior, do you wanna be Lucas's pretend little brother for a while?

Junior: [Gasp] Are you sure?

I don't want you to miss me too much.

Alma: I'll be okay.

Junior: Then definitely yes!

Lucas: Does that mean I get a little brother to play with?

Alma: Yep!

And then I get to read.

Lucas: What do you want to do first, Pretend Little Brother?

Junior: Can you show me how to build a rock tower, Pretend Big Brother?

Lucas: Absolutely!

Alma: Now, book time.

Lucas: So the trick is to balance each rock verrryyyy caaarrrefully.

Alma: [Satisfied sigh]. I finished my book! And it was way way wayyy ah-may-zing!

Especially after Carlotta chased the Banjo Bandit and found out it was her twin sister!

Definitely didn't see that coming.

Now I'm ready to play with Junior.

Lucas/Junior: [Singing] I could build a rocket to the stars.

Fly past Earth, the Moon, and Mars.

There's nothing I can't do, as long as I'm with youuuu!

Alma: [Clapping]

Junior: Thank you, thank you! Lucas: You've been a great audience!

Junior is the best pretend little brother.

He's up for playing anything!

Alma: He totally is.

So you wanna play dinos with me?

Junior: Yes, please. But can we do it later?

Lucas and I are going to sing an, an..

What was it called again?

Lucas: An encore. You can't have a concert without one.

Junior: You wanna sing with us?

Alma: No thanks. I'll play something else until you're done.

Lucas: From the top!

Lucas/Junior: [Singing] I could hike a mountain, swim the sea...

Alma: Done!

Alma Rivera hits a home run! Oh yeah, oh yeah!

This is ah-may-zing. I gotta show Junior.

He's gonna love it. Aaand he should be done playing with Lucas by now.

Rafia: Hey, Alma. Is Junior here?

He said he'd be my pretend little brother for a few hours.

Alma: Wait, really?

Rafia: Yeah! I've always wanted a little brother!

Junior: Hi, Rafia!

Ready to play the World's Greatest Game of Pretend Little Brother?

Rafia: Definitely!

Howard: Did you say pretend little brother?

Can I have a turn too?

Junior: Of course!

Becka: Ooh, I want some Junior time too, I've always wanted a little brother!

Even a pretend one.

Junior: Sure! You can have a turn after Howard.

Kids: Great! Sure! Okay!

Alma: Wait, what?!

Hold up! Then when can I get a turn to play with you?

Junior: Definitely after Rafia, and Howard, aaand Becka.

Sooo maybe tonight, or tomorrow?

Alma: Tomorrow?!

Junior: Orrr you can play with us!

Howard: Uh-huh! Becka: Yeah, play with us!

Alma: Uhhhh...

No thanks.

Junior: Okay.

So first I'll play with you, Rafia.

Junior/Rafia: Roar, roar roarr! [Giggle]

Alma: Humph!

I'll just wait ‘til Junior can be my little brother again.

Junior/Rafia: Roar, roar roarr! [Giggle]

Rafia: [Giggle]

I never knew little brothers could be so great at this!

Rafia/Junior: [Giggle]

Howard/Junior: [Giggle]

Howard: Ehh! Junior: Uhh!

Howard: [Giggle] I've taught you well, Pretend Little Brother!

Junior: Woo hoo!

Alma: UGHH!

Becka/Junior: ............

Alma: [Sigh]

Becka/Junior: ............

............[Giggle]

Alma: [Sigh]

Junior's having fun being everybody's little brother.

And now he doesn't have time to be my little brother.

[Sigh] This doesn't feel good.

I gotta think about this...

Junior: Wanna play with us?

Alma: No thanks. I wanna keep reading my book and find out how it ends.

Junior: Ooh, wanna help me build my fort?

Alma: No. I wanna finish my book.

But, I didn't really have time to be his big sister before.

I was reading my book.

Lucas: I wish I had a little brother to play with.

Rafia: I've always wanted a little brother!

Alma: [Sigh] I miss Junior but, I am happy that my friends want to play with him.

Little brothers are ah-may-zing!

Lucas/Junior: [Singing] I could hike a mountain, swim the sea...

Junior/Rafia: Roar, roar roarr!

Howard: [Giggle] I've taught you well!

Becka/Junior: ......!

Alma: Even if Junior is a pretend little brother to my friends,

he'll always be a real little brother to me.

Oh! I know what to do!

Junior: I'll play with you as soon as I can, Alma. I promise.

Alma: That's okay. I know my friends love playing with you.

And I don't mind sharing you.

Junior: I love playing with all of them too. Buuut...

There are sooo many friends.

I'm getting confused whose turn it is.

Alma: I can help!

[Door bell]

Alma: Welcome to your playdate with your pretend little brother.

Junior: Hi.

Alma: Come back any time.

[Door bell]

Alma: Junior's waiting for you, André!

Junior: Hey!

[Door bell]

Alma: Right on time!

Junior: Hi!

Bye! Thanks for playing with me.

[tired sigh]

Alma: Hey, Junior!

Junior: Uh! [Muffled] Hi, Alma.

[Sigh]

Being a pretend little brother is fun, but also tiring! [Sigh]

I'm ready to be your little brother.

[Yawn] Wanna play?

Alma: How about I read you this book while you rest?

Junior: Yes, please.

[Sigh] You're my favorite big sister.

Alma: And you're my favorite little brother.

I don't mind sharing Junior,

but I'm really glad he'll always be my little brother.
