They then get a call from Bonita, who has Gabi and Iggy, with her, saying she will be at their house in a few minutes. After Bonita hangs up, Sal jokes that they should appreciate the calm before Gabi arrives. She jokingly says he should be nicer to his “girlfriend”, and he jokingly says she is. She believes this and, after he came out as asexual, is shocked by this. When Gustavo reveals Sal is joking, she playfully hits him before she and her husband leave to get changed. After they get dressed they greet the Reáls. When they come outside, Sal inadvertently activates the disco function on Iggy's baby carrier. After Gabi deactivates it, she also Gustavo greet Iggy.

She and Gustavo play video games with the boys before going to bed. The following morning she expresses her disappointment in Sal for “messing” with his father’s equipment and they ground him for two weeks.

When they arrive, she, Sal, and Aventura are amazed at the backyard. They find Ms. Reál and the dads eating empanadas at an outdoor kitchen and join them. She reminds Ms. Reál that Sal cannot eat empanadas due to his diabetes, however they already have two backed empanadas for him, one made out of insects. She tells her husband, who arrived before them, that insects are the food of the future as he watches Sal eat it in disgust.After eating, the kids discuss their plan to retell the story as a more ethnically diverse play reflecting the various ethnicities of the student body. They go on to explain that the play will be held in different classrooms with different students playing the same part and need multiple costumes. The adults agree to help and Gabi says she and Sal should scout out the school for rooms that will work for the play. Before they leave, Ms. Reál says a new dad is joining the family. They are shocked to learn it is Yasmany and she joins in a group hug.
