"CHITA RIVERA? YOU SAID DRUNK CHITA RIVERA? WHO'S THAT?" SEDO QUESTIONED.

The reference clearly creates confusion between all the fours kids. "Banana hat lady?" Miggy input. "No, that's Carmen Miranda." Usnavi corrected. "Uni brow artist lady?" Rosa questioned.

"What? No." Miggy disagree.

"Shut up!" Rosa respond.

"What did they teach you for Hispanic Heritage Month? Listen, repeat after
me. Chita, Rita, Frida, Celia, Dolores,
Isabel, Sandra, Julia, Rigoberta, and
Mirabal." Usnavi states.

"Ready?" Usnavi inquired. "Yes!" The
kid simultaneously answered. "Go."
He replied. "Chita, Rita, Frida, Celia, Dolores, Isabel —" But all the children
except Cattleya's voice began to trail
off at the end of Isabel.

"Sandra, Julia, Rigoberta, Mirabal." Cattleya finish. "Eso es!" Usnavi said, impress. "Plus, Sonia. Supreme Court Justice." Cattleya adds. "Come on! Let's go!" Usnavi cheer. This made Cattleya earn a fist bump from Rosa. "Thank
you." Cattleya shyly replied.

Benny and Sloane walks inside of the
bodega. "Yo, you all still open, man?" Benny questioned. "Everybody closed early 'cause of the heat. We headed to
the pool." Sloane add. Two customers
left at the sound of this.

Usnavi and Sonny then share glances between each other and Usnavi gives
an approving look. "There is a god!" Sonny shouts out of relief. "Yo don't
take nothing from there without my permission." Usnavi scold.

Soon enough, the cousins change in
to an appropriate swim attire. Usnavi
puts a brown paper bag sign onto the door saying "Gone swimming." Sloane turn the lights off. "Yo. Come on. Let's roll, man." Benny ushers. Benny walks out the bodega with Sloane following behind. "All right. All right. Yo, Sonny, come on." Usnavi replies.

Usnavi follows behind Sloane. "Yeah!
I'm coming!" Sonny respond, about to follow behind Usnavi until the bodega phone rang. "Yo, answer that." Usnavi instruct. Sonny reluctantly walks back over and answers the phone. "Hello?" Sonny spoke. His eyes widen at what
he's being told.

"Holy shit! Yeah. Yeah." Sonny said as
he opens up a pen. Meanwhile, Sloane
is walking down the sidewalk between Usnavi and Benny.
