Abuelita:
What is all this? You've keep secrets from your own family?!
Berto:
It's all that time he spends in the plaza!
Gloria:
Filled his head with crazy fantasies!
Miguel:
It's not a fantasy! That man was Ernesto de la Cruz, (gives Papa the photo) the greatest musician of all time!
Papa:
We've never know anything about this man, but whoever he was, he still abandoned his family. This is no future for my son!
Miguel:
But Papa. You said my family would guide me. Well, de la Cruz is my family. I'm supposed to play music.
Abuelita:
Never! That man's music was a curse! I will not allow it!
Miguel:
But if you would just--
Mama:
Miguel!
Papa:
You will listen to your family! No more music!
Miguel:
(picks up a guitar) Just listen to me play!
Papa:
End of argument!
(Miguel tries to play the guitar, but Abuelita snatches it from him)
Abuelita:
You want to end up like that man? Forgotten? Left off your family's ofrenda?
Miguel:
[angrily] I don't care if I'm some STUPID ofrenda!
(Abuelita along with the whole family gasps in absolute shock at what Miguel has said)
Abuelita:
(glares angrily at the guitar and prepares to destroy it)
Miguel:
[terrified] No!
Papa:
Mama!
Abuelita:
[furiously smashes the guitar against the ground, destroying it] There! [throws the broken guitar and makes the Cross sign] No guitar, no music. [sees Miguel starting to cry] Aw, come. [tries to comfort him] You'll feel better after you eat with your family.
Miguel:
[snapping in venge of tears] I don't want to be in this family! [snatches the photo away from Papa and runs away]
Papa:
[runs after him] Miguel, Miguel!
[Miguel runs out of his home]
