Undone

- - What the hell was that?

- Oh, no. Mom? - Mom?

- - Mom. Mom!

- - Camila!

I can't believe Mom just left like that.

What is going on with her?

Alma, what have you done?

The world's falling apart.

Aah!

- Whoa. -

Why are we here?

Becca, are you doing this?

No. I don't know what this is.

This isn't my memory.

I've never been outside of my own memories before.

Wait. Dad?

There's so much sadness.

Just let the feelings wash over you. It's okay.

- -

You got to us out of here. Right now!

- - Becca?

- Right now! - Becca.

Shit! Aah!

You're okay.

Dad, was that your memory?

No.

That wasn't his memory.

You just tapped into Dad's fears

- of Mom leaving him. - It felt so real.

Becca...

these visions-- they can be exciting, but

they can also be overwhelming in ways you first don't realize,

so I-I'd encourage you to leave them alone.

- Okay, I'll try. - So what do we do about Mom?

Whatever your mother's going through, that's her problem.

Your problem is finishing your dissertation.

Dad, come on.

We have no idea where she went. She could be in serious trouble.

Okay, look, I'll check the credit cards.

Uh... W... She, uh, bought a plane ticket to Mexico.

She's going to see her family.

She ran off in the middle of the night

to have a casual visit with the fam?

It looks like it.

So, I want you two to go home

and-and go to bed and sober up...

you boozers, all right?

A-And your mother-- she'll come home

when she's ready, and everything will be fine.

You'll see.

I came by to pick up some stuff.

Still not sure what to believe.

Wish I could trust you.

Reed.

Hello. You've reached Camila Diaz.

Please leave a message.

- Okay, now what do I do? -

Hi, Mom, it's me. Um...

I'm really sorry we just barged in on you like that.

We're just really worried about you.

And look, I'm gonna keep calling until you pick up, okay?

So you might as well just pick up.

Press the button.

What makes you

think you'll be happy in any reality?

Wake up.

It's important. Come on.

Well, fancy seeing you here.

Okay, so, I called Mom. She's not answering.

I left a couple of messages and now her mailbox is full.

Damn. How many voice mails

- did you leave? - It doesn't matter.

- Like, 27. - Twenty...

What if she broke it off with this Alejandro guy

and he's not having it, so now she has to

wire this money to a safe house or something?

Yes. Mom could be in danger.

That's what I've been saying this whole time.

- Okay. So what are we gonna do? - Well,

Dad thinks that she went to visit her family,

- so let's call them and see if she's there. - Okay.

- - Saddle up, partner.

Hello, my sweethearts!

Who is it?

Alma and Becca.

Oh, I thought maybe it was your loverboy.

Ay no! Stop it!

Do you have a loverboy, Grandma?

Please. I have a friend I go to church with. That is all.

Okay, my angels. I love to see you.

Tell me. What is going on?

We're looking for our mom.

She caught a flight to Mexico last night.

We thought she might be with you.

She's in Mexico and she didn't call?

Do you have any idea where she could be?

Well, where she should be is here.

Just like you two. You should be here.

Everyone should be here with me.

Could we come there?

Yes! Come! Come see me!

Maybe your mother is on her way.

Okay.

Fantastic.

Goodbye my loves!

- Bye. Miss you! - Bye!

Okay, we'll just go for a couple of days, make sure

Mom is okay, and then just come right back home.

I love this plan.

Hey, how great is it that we both speak Spanish?

You're so weird.

Ayyy! I love seeing my two granddaughters.

Oh my goodness, look at you. Are you supermodels?

No, Grandma.

Well, I am.

Hi!

Hi, Tía Monse! How are you?

Alma y Becca. My goodness.

The favorites of my nieces and nephews.

I am wanting to know how you are living.

I know a bar for cocktails that is very agreeable.

Ay, Tio Oscar is away on business, but he is wanting

to give you his hugs and kisses.

Oh, no. We love Tio Oscar's hugs and kisses.

Yeah, they're so... friendly.

Well, your mother still hasn't responded to our calls.

I don't know where she could be.

She's a very private person.

Lots of secrets, I think.

So Becca, when is little baby Reed or Becca coming?

Oh well, we'll see!

But we have something to show you.

Does this look familiar to you?

We found this painting of our mom.

It's signed by someone named Alejandro.

No. We don't know any Alejandro.

Except Vicente Fernández's son, Alejandro Fernández.

Who is that?

He is a very famous singer.

We don't really know him.

His father sings ranchero with so much beauty.

Wait, wait Grandma.

Do you know any old boyfriend who our mom might be visiting?

Boyfriend? No!

No she does not have an old boyfriend!

Your mother has an ex-boyfriend, but--

Enough, Monse!

No! We know nothing of no boyfriends!

Would you mind taking a closer look at this?

Just to make sure nothing about it is familiar.

Mm...

No. Nothing.

Sorry.

Becca.

You brought us in Abuelita's memory.

That's Mom.

Something feels wrong here.

Sorry.

I do not know this painting.

Do you understand?

Are you upset, Grandma?

No! I just don't want to talk about it anymore.

Okay.

Hey. Look, Becca, you made it onto

the great wall of matrimony. Congrats.

Yeah.

Oh.

I love that picture of Mom and Dad.

Yeah.

They look happy.

So what do you think Abuelita was hiding?

I don't know.

That vision we went into was super weird.

It's like she was

- fighting it or something. - Mm.

But maybe it was just her fears, like it was with Dad?

Um... no, I think that was definitely a real memory.

Well, whatever it was, she definitely

did not want us looking there.

Maybe you need to open up more.

What do you mean?

Look, you're naturally empathetic.

And I think when you access someone else's memory

you're taking on all their emotions.

But if you can learn to open up beyond that

and become nothing, the feelings will flow right through you,

and then maybe you can experience a clearer truth.

That totally makes sense and sounds super easy.

Just keep trying. You'll get it.

We'll talk to Abuelita again.

What about Tía Monse?

- What about her? - She seemed to know something.

- We could ask her. -

Okay. Let's start there.

Oy vey, it's Dad.

- - Let's figure out what to say

when we get back.

Dos más palomas y un whiskey.
