Maya & Miguel

When the usually meticulous Rosa scorches the family breakfast, Maya thinks the apartment is cursed with bad luck.

One evening, after Maya sees Abuela Elena dancing alone after dinner, she decides that her grandmother's cheery exterior is masking a deep loneliness -- and that Abuela Elena needs to be fixed up on a date.

Miguel recalls the time that a new kid moved into the neighborhood: Andy.

When Paco unwittingly destroys Miguel's favorite Orlando Cruz baseball card, Maya decides to fix the situation by getting an autograph from Orlando himself, who is coming to town that weekend with his team.

When Chrissy's kitten runs away, Maya and her friends put up signs and spread the word about the lost "gato."

While Maya and Miguel are searching with their Abuela Elena for treasures through her seemingly bottomless trunk of memories, they happen upon an old menu from her defunct restaurant "La Cocinita."

Maya finds an abandoned letter on Miguel's desk, written to a pretty girl in their class named Esperanza.

When Paco stops speaking, Maya and Santiago take him to the vet, who tells them that the poor parrot is simply lonely staying at home all day.

When Maya wants to add some oomph to her presentation about Mexico for school, she consults her Abuela Elena, who allows her to borrow a prized possession: a calavera, or skull made of sugar, that is used in the yearly Day of the Dead celebration. Maya promises to let nothing happen to this special calavera. Her presentation goes well, but Maya loses the calavera!

Maggie wants to star in the upcoming School Assembly Day show. Her teacher, Mrs. Langley, recognizes her talent and assigns her the starring role, which she must share with non-dancer Miguel.

Maya notices something's wrong with Tito. He's not interested in playing soccer or eating ice cream. Is he sick? It turns out he's homesick.

To help Tito overcome his stage fright, Maya convinces him to audition for a community theater performance called "The Doubtful Prince."

A hulking new kid named Jimmy McCorkle moves in across the street and - at least it seems to Miguel and his friends - begins to bully everyone around.
