Héctor gets more creative with his dancing, head coming off,
limbs spinning around. The audience hoots!
HÉCTOR
(singing)
THE SENSE THAT YOU'RE NOT MAKING...
MIGUEL:
(singing)
THE LIBERTIES YOU'RE TAKING...
HECTOR MIGUEL
LEAVES MY CABEZA SHAKING LEAVES MY CABEZA SHAKING
YOU ARE JUST UN POCO LOCO YOU ARE JUST UN POCO LOCO
The audience starts clapping in time with the song. Dante
lets out a howl.
The Riveras continue their search in the audience.
TÍO FELIPE/TÍO OSCAR
We're looking for a living kid...
about 12?
CUT TO:
TÍA ROSITA
Have you seen a living boy?
ON STAGE:
HECTOR MIGUEL
UN POQUI-TI-TI-TI-TI-TI-TI-TI- UN POQUI-TI-TI-TI-TI-TI-TI-TI-
TI-TI-TO LOCO!! TI-TI-TO LOCO!!
The audience erupts into applause!
76.
Miguel smiles, soaking in the moment. He feels like a real
musician.
HÉCTOR
Hey, you did good! I'm proud of
you! Eso!
Miguel swells and looks back out the crowd when he suddenly
spots Oscar and Felipe talking to a stranger. He looks over
and there is Tía Rosita talking to someone else! Miguel
looks to stage right, where he sees Papá Julio talking to the
Emcee!
AUDIENCE:
Otra! Otra! Otra!
Panicking, Miguel pulls Héctor off stage. Héctor tries to
pull back.
OFF STAGE:
HÉCTOR
Hey, where are you going?
MIGUEL:
HÉCTOR
What, are you crazy? We're about
to win this thing!
ON STAGE:
The Emcee takes the microphone.
EMCEE:
Damas y caballeros, I have an
emergency announcement.
(beat)
Please be on the lookout for a
living boy, answers to the name of
Miguel. Earlier tonight he ran
away from his family. They just
want to send him back to the Land
of the Living...
Murmurs of concern rumble through the audience.
77.
OFF STAGE:
EMCEE (O.S.)
...If anyone has information,
please contact the authorities.
HÉCTOR
Wait, wait, wait! You said de la
Cruz was your ONLY family. The
ONLY person who could send you
home.
MIGUEL:
I do have other family, but--
HÉCTOR
You could have taken my photo back
this whole time?!
MIGUEL:
--But they hate music! I need a
musician's blessing!
HÉCTOR
You lied to me!
MIGUEL:
Oh, you're one to talk!
HÉCTOR
Look at me. I'm being forgotten,
Miguel. I don't even know if I'm
gonna last the night!
(beat)
I'm not gonna miss my one chance to
cross that bridge 'cause you want
to live out some stupid musical
fantasy!
MIGUEL:
It's not stupid.
Héctor grabs Miguel's arm and pulls him toward the stage.
HÉCTOR
I'm taking you to your family.
MIGUEL:
Let go of me!
HÉCTOR
You'll thank me later--
78.
Miguel yanks his arms away.
MIGUEL:
You don't wanna help me, you only
care about yourself! Keep your
dumb photo!
He pulls Héctor's photo out of his pocket and throws it at
him. Héctor tries to grab it but it catches a breeze and
drifts into the crowd.
HÉCTOR
No -- no, no, no! No...
MIGUEL:
Stay away from me!
As Héctor scrambles to catch his photo, Miguel runs away.
Héctor looks up but Miguel is gone.
HÉCTOR
Hey, chamaco! Where did you go?!
Chamaco! I'm sorry! Come back!
EXT. PEDESTRIAN THOROUGHFARE
Miguel hustles to get away from Héctor. Dante bounds after
him, but looks back and whimpers. He barks to get Miguel's
attention.
MIGUEL:
Dante, cállate!
But Dante is insistent. He tugs at Miguel's pants, pulling
him back to Héctor.
MIGUEL (CONT'D)
No, Dante! Stop it! He can't help
me!
Dante grabs onto his hoodie sleeve. Miguel tries to shake
him off, but his hoodie slips off, revealing the arms of a
living boy. Dante redoubles his efforts.
MIGUEL (CONT'D)
Dante, stop! Stop it! Leave me
alone! You're not a spirit guide,
you're just a dumb dog! Now get
out of here!
Miguel yanks his hoodie away from Dante, who shrinks back,
rebuffed. The scuffle has drawn the eyes of the crowd.
79.
Startled skeletons see Miguel's arms. He hurries to get his
hoodie back on.
CROWD MEMBERS:
It's him! / It's that living boy! /
I heard about him. / Look! / He's
alive! / The boy's alive.
Miguel runs and jumps down some scaffolding. In the
distance, he sees de la Cruz's tower. After only a few
paces, Pepita lands in front of Miguel, cutting off his path!
He skids to a stop.
