It seems everything is going according to plan again, until Maya realizes she has lost the gold coins for Las Arras! Certain they were lost in the dough for the cookies, Maya and Miguel hop into action. But Maya won’t let them lose heart and is determined to help them fix everything before the wedding. Paco has eaten all the cookies for the reception, Santiago has lost his voice, and the wedding dress is mangled in a faulty sewing machine. As always seems to happen at weddings, many things start to go wrong. Abuela is baking Mexican wedding cookies for the reception, Santiago is playing guitar and singing, Rosa is sewing the dress, Miguel is giving the toast, and Maya has been given a great honor: to hold the 13 gold coins for the ceremony known as Las Arras. Maya proclaims that they can host the wedding at their house, and have everything ready in just two days! Though stunned by this, Rosa and Santiago agree to help, and the countdown begins. Angelina is disappointed she had wanted a wedding with her family, in town. Rosa’s cousin, Angelina, has just gotten engaged! As she shares her fantasy for the perfect wedding with the Santos family over dinner, the grim-faced groom arrives with some news: he has received a promotion that will take him out of the country. In the end, both Maya and Miguel learn the value of patience and consistency – in gardening, wrestling and life. But when Maya's overzealousness in the garden leads to a flood of over-watering, Miguel hops into action, using the moves taught to him by Gus Lopez to overcome the flood. As Maya slowly destroys Abuela's roses, Miguel gets frustrated with the slow pace of his training and quits. But instead of getting an exciting luchador costume and learning show-wrestling moves, Gus teaches Miguel the actual principles of wrestling (which often, to Miguel's horror, resemble baking in Gus' bakery). Miguel, meanwhile, wants to become a wrestler and begins taking lessons from Gus "El Guamazo" Lopez, former luchador. Unfortunately, while Maya's heart is in the right place, she is too eager to get Abuela's roses growing quickly.
The show presents culture and language learning as fun, relevant and rewarding for all children, with a special emphasis on the Latino population.
