El Hombres!
Episode 3 – “The Mouse”
(Pico & Miguel are walking to the local Home Depot early Tuesday morning..)
Pico: Joo want some of my Jumex, Meeguel?
Miguel: No. I hate Jumex.
Pico: What? How do joo hate Jumex? Jumex is deleecious!
Miguel: No, it’s not. It’s bad for you. It’s just sugar.
Pico: Sugar ees good!
(Miguel shakes his head as a black SUV with tinted windows pulls up..)
Driver: Gentlemen. Get in.
Miguel: We’re legal.
Pico: (nodding) Yeah, very legal!
Driver: There’s no such thing as “very legal”. Get in. We’ve got a job for you.
(An hour later, the SUV pulls up in front of a sprawling Beverly Hills mansion and Pico & Miguel are greeted by a man in a hat..)
Eisner: Gentlemen! Gentlemen! Come in! Come in!
(Pico & Miguel enter Michael Eisner’s parlor and awkwardly sit across from him..)
Pico: Neat hat.
Eisner: Yes, I know. I know.
Miguel: What’s that on your ankle?
Eisner: Oh, that’s nothing. What will you gentlemen have to drink?
Pico: I’ll have a beer.
Miguel: That looks like an electronic monitoring device. My cousin had one of those. Are you under house arrest?
Eisner: One beer coming up! (shuffles into other room)
Miguel: I think this guy’s a white collar criminal, Pico.
Pico: He has a blue shirt.
Miguel: No it’s an expression, you doofus. He’s a very rich man who can afford to not go to prison.
Pico: That sounds nice.
Eisner: (shuffling back into the parlor) One cerveza for the gentleman!
Pico: Gracias.
Eisner: Now I wanted to get your advice on some things, men.
Miguel: So what’d you do to get put under house arrest?
Eisner: The Hispanic market is currently the fastest growing in the world and Disney wants to be on the front lines when it comes to entertaining the Latinos.
Pico: You’re entertaining me right now! (hiccups)
Miguel: Did you steal a car?
Eisner: What kind of stuff is entertaining to you Mexicans? Sombreros? Scantily-clad women? Tiny chihuahuas?
Pico: Yes, yes and yes.
Miguel: We’re Salvadorean. Did you embezzle?
Eisner: What about the word “chalupa”? I always found it hilarious.
Pico: Yes, heelarious. Can I have another cerveza?
Eisner: Si! (runs to kitchen)
Miguel: Now I recognize that guy. It’s Michael Eisner. He used to run Disney, but he doesn’t anymore.
Pico: Why is he wearing the ears, then?
Miguel: I think he stole a bunch of money from them. That must be why he’ s under house arrest. He’s probably losing his mind in here. Probably still thinks he runs Disney.
Pico: At least he’s got beer.
Eisner: (trotting back into the parlor) Una cerveza, por favor!
Pico: (cracks it open) Gracias!
Eisner: Now, back to those ideas.
Miguel: Didn’t Disney fire you?
Pico: (raises hand) I have an idea.
Eisner: (points to Pico) Yes, Pico.
Pico: What if you deed, like, Spidermayne. But he had a gun. Those webs are gay.
Eisner: Yes, yes. Those webs are gay. I tell ya, that might work Pico.
Pico: Feefty-feefty?
Eisner: (shakes Pico’s hand) Deal. I’ll take this directly to the Board of Directors tomorrow. We’re going to be very very rich, Pico!
Pico: Yayyy.
Miguel: So, do you need us to mow your lawn or can we go?
Eisner: I think I’ve got enough to get the ball rolling for now, gentlemen. I’ll be in touch.
Miguel: Yeah, I’m sure you will.
Pico: Thanks for the cervezas!
Eisner: (waving from the front door as the boys walk down the driveway) Bye, Pico! I love you!
~~~
(Wednesday morning, Pico & Miguel are standing outside Home Depot, ready for another day of work..)
Pico: Have joo ever been to preeson, Meeguel?
Miguel: Just once.
Pico: What deed joo do?
Miguel: Shot a man just to watch him die.
Pico: I wish we could’ve met Goofy.
