(ENGINE LURCHING)

DAD:
We killed the car.

Sorry, hon.

Look!

Is that Meemaw's house?

I think it is.

GREG:
So we're nearly there.

Greg, the van won't run.

It doesn't have to run, Dad.

It just has to roll.

If we all push, maybe we could

get it over the hill.

Then just let gravity do the rest

and we ride on down to Meemaw's house.

I think that might be the worst idea

I've ever heard in my life.

Okay, boys, once we get rolling,

I want you to hop in. Got it?

On three, here we go. One, two, three.

Come on, push.

That's it. Here we go. Come on.

It's working!

(MOM SCREAMING)

Come on, Greg!

I can't make it!

Greg, run!

Come on!

Oh, boy.

(SCREAMS)

(SCREAMING)

# Splish splash, I was takin' a bath #

# Long about a Saturday night #

# Yeah, a rub dub, just relaxin' in the tub #

# Thinkin' it would make us all right #

# Well, I stepped out the tub #

Greg?

Happy birthday, Meemaw.

What a wonderful surprise.

MOM:
Greg?

Greg! Are you okay?

Oh, my God.

You said you wanted to get your boat

on the water this summer.

Happy birthday, Meemaw.

- Sure.

- Sorry.

GREG:
Well, I guess this trip

ended up being one of Mom's better ideas.

And you know what?

It was a pretty great party.

CROWD:
# Happy birthday to you! #

GREG:
After we got the van fixed,

and the boat out of Meemaw's pool,

we headed home.

At least, we thought the van was fixed.

(DAD SIGHS)

I'm not getting a signal.

Look, there's a car!

Hello? Hello!

Hi, there.

Thank you so much for stopping.

Hola.

(SPEAKS SPANISH)

Oh, no, we don't speak Spanish.

(SPEAKS SPANISH)

Oh, Manny!

Luis. (SPEAKS SPANISH)

(CHUCKLES) Hi.

(SPEAKS SPANISH)

We still don't speak Spanish.

(SPEAKS SPANISH)

I'm so proud of you.

He say caca.

So proud.

I hope you guys are happy.

Your little brother is super smart.

I just hope he knows where he's going.

(MANNY SPEAKS SPANISH)

(LUIS SPEAKS SPANISH)

(MANNY SPEAKS SPANISH)

I don't believe it.

# You can count on me #

# Like 1, 2, 3 #

# I'll be there #

# And I know when I need it #

(OINKING HAPPILY)

# I can count on you #

# Like 4, 3, 2 #

# And you'll be there #

# 'Cause that's what friends

are supposed to do, oh, yeah #

# Oooh, oooh, ooh, ooh #

GREG:
By the time

we got home, everyone was good.

Dad told his boss he needed

more time with his family,

which made Mom really happy.

And they loaned Rodrick the money

to fix his Loded Diper van

in exchange for him cleaning out the minivan.

(GIGGLING)

Trust me. This vacation was far from perfect.

But the one thing our road trip has taught me

is that a little face time

with my family really isn't that bad.

And you know, we ended up

with plenty of material for

our own memory book.

I don't think we're gonna be winning

any Family of the Year awards.

But our trip was definitely an adventure.

- (PIG GRUNTING)

- DAD:
Hey!

In fact, I can't wait to see

where we're going next year.

Wherever it is, we're flying.

# Run, run, run

yeah, run and run #

# Look up, look down

look all around, oh, yeah #

# Go, go, go, yeah

we're on the go #

# Swing left, swing right

because you never know #

# Oh, yeah #

# One, two, three, four #

# We're not slowing down #

# And you can't stop us now #

# Let's kick back and just enjoy the ride #

# Whoa, oh, ooh, oh, oh #

# Whoa, oh, ooh, oh #

# Whoa, oh, ooh, oh, oh #

# Whoa, oh, ooh, oh #

# Dance, dance, dance till you see the sun #

# So bright, so right

yeah it's just begun #

# Oh, yeah #

# Move, move, move when you hear the song #

# Go nuts, go wild when the music's on #

# Oh, yeah #

# Let's kick back and just enjoy the ride #

(GIRLS WHISPERING)

Watch and learn, little bro. Watch and learn.

Hey, ladies. My band's playing

the car wash this weekend.

Are you Diaper Hands?

Yes, he is.

- Oh, my God!

- Can we get selfies with you?

Sure.

# We're not slowing down #

# And you can't stop us now #

# Let's kick back and just enjoy the ride #
