He had the coolest guitar! He could fly! And he wrote the best songs.

Two seconds and you already break your promise. This isn't fair. It's my life. You already had yours. Papa Julio, I ask for your blessing. - (WHIMPERS) - Tia Rosita?

Miguel, vitamins are a real thing. Well, now I'm thinking maybe they could be. - (GASPS) - Mija, it's not nice to stare at... Ay! Santa Maria! (WHOOSHING)
