Dang bro..

Open your eyes.

This is where our magic comes from?

Mmm-hmm. This candle holds the miracle given to our family.

How did we get a miracle?

Long ago, when my three babies had just been born, your Abuelo Pedro and I were forced to flee our home.

And though many joined us, hoping to find a new home, we could not escape the dangers and your Abuelo was lost.

But in our darkest moment, we were given a miracle.

The candle became a magical flame that could never go out.

And it blessed us with a refuge in which to live.

A place of wonder.

An Encanto.

An Encanto. The miracle grew.

And our house, our casita itself came alive to shelter us.

When my children came of age, the miracle blessed each with a magic Gift to help us.

And when their children came of age…

They got magic too.

That's right. And together, our family’s Gifts have made our new home a paradise.

Tonight, this candle will give you your Gift, mi vida.

Strengthen our community, strengthen our home.

Make your family proud.

Make my family proud. Yes, yes casita, we're going.

What do you think my Gift will be?

You are a wonder, Mirabel Madrigal.

Whatever Gift awaits will be just as special as you.

ABUELA:
(SHOUTS) Mirabel!

What are you doing?

Uh, they were just asking about the family and…

She was about to tell us about her super awesome Gift!

Dolores:
Oh, Mirabel didn’t get one. (SQUEAKS)

You didn’t get a Gift?

Um…

Mirabel! Delivery!

I gave you the special since you’re the only Madrigal kid with no Gift.

I call it the “Not Special Special” since, uh, you have no Gift.

Thanks.

Oh, and tell Antonio good luck.

The last Gift ceremony was a bummer.

Last one being yours that did not work.

Uh-huh.

If I was you, I’d be really sad.

Well, my little friend, I am not.

Because the truth is, Gift or no Gift, I am just as special as the rest of my family.

ISABELA:
Who wants more pink?

LUISA:
All right, guys, where do I drop the wagon?

Maybe your Gift is being in denial.

PEPA:
I made a rainbow!

WOMAN:
Get the chairs out of the way.

(MIRABEL GRUNTING)

Sorry. Excuse me.

PEPA:
Dolores, can you hear if anyone is gonna be late?

Huh? Whoop!

ABUELA:
Lift it higher. Higher.

CAMILO:
Hey, nice job over there.

JOSÉ:
Yeah, yeah.

Camilo, we need another José!

José!

ABUELA:
Luisa, the piano goes upstairs!

I’m on it! Careful, sis!

(GRUNTING)

PEPA:
My baby’s night has to be perfect, and it’s not perfect. And people are going to be coming.

And nothing’s ready.

You’re tornado-ing the flowers!

The flowers!

Did someone say flowers?

MAN:
Isabela!

(WOMAN LAUGHS)

FÉLIX:
Our angel, our angel!

Please don’t clap.

Thank you.

Oh, it’s nothing.

(GRUNTS)

A little sisterly advice, if you weren’t always trying too hard, you wouldn’t be in the way.

Actually, Isa, this is called helping.

And I’m not in the way. You are. (GRUNTS)

(GRUNTING)

Whoa.

Excuse me.

Mi vida, you okay? You don’t have to overdo it.

I know, Mamá.

I just wanna do my part like the rest of the family.

She’s right, amor.

Eesh.

First Gift ceremony since yours.

A lot of emotions.

Bee stings!

AGUSTÍN:
And I’ve been there.

Ay, Agustín.

When me and your tío Félix married into the family, outsiders who had no Gift, never, ever would…

surrounded by the exceptional, it was easy to feel un-ceptional.

Okay, Papi.

I’m just saying, I get it.

Eat.

Mi amor, if you ever wanna talk…

I gotta put out the stuff.

The house isn’t gonna decorate itself.

Sorry, you could. You look great.

Corazon, remember!

Yeah, remember!

You have nothing to prove!

You have nothing to prove!

MIRABEL:
Mm-hmm.

(JULIETA SIGHS)

FÉLIX:
Ah, los musicos.

You guys can set up over here.

ABUELA:
Clean your rooms! I don’t care how big they are.

TIPLE MAESTRO:
Has anybody seen my tiple?

ABUELA:
One hour!

(GASPS)

Oh! (GRUNTS) No, no, no!

Maybe you should leave the decorations to someone else?

No, I actually made these as a surprise for you. Ooh!

Ooh! (CHUCKLES)

Mirabel, I know you want to help.

But tonight must go perfectly.

The whole town relies on our family, on our Gifts.

So, the best way for some of us to help is to step aside.

Let the rest of the family do what they do best.

Okay?

Mm-hmm.

(WIND BLOWING)

Pepa! You have a cloud!

I know, Mamá.

But now I can’t find Antonio. What do you want from me?

(THUNDER RUMBLES)

Mamá, be nice to Mirabel, okay?

You know tonight will be hard for her.

ABUELA:
If the Gift ceremony doesn’t go well this time, tonight will be hard for us all.

(MIRABEL SIGHS)

FÉLIX:
Antonio!

(SIGHS DEEPLY)

Everyone’s looking for you.

This present will self-destruct if you don’t take it in three, two, one… Oh. (CHUCKLES)

Nervous?

You have nothing to worry about.

You’re gonna get your Gift and open that door and it’s gonna be the coolest ever.

I know it.

(WHISPERS) What if it doesn’t work?

Well, in that impossible scenario, you’d stay here in the nursery with me.

(WHISPERS DRAMATICALLY) Forever.

And I’d get you all to myself.

I wish you could have a door.

You know what?

You don’t have to worry about me, ’cause I have an amazing family and an amazing house.

And an amazing you.

And seeing you get your special Gift and your door, that’s gonna make me way more happy than anything.

(SIGHS) But, alas, I am gonna miss having the world’s best roomie.

(GASPS)

(CHUCKLES) I know you’re an animal guy and I made this so, when you move into your cool, new room, you always have something to snuggle with.

All right, hombrecito, you ready?

(COLOMBIA, MI ENCANTO PLAYING)

Sorry, I got to get one more squeeze.

Abuela says it’s time.

We’ll be waiting at your door.

Okay, okay. Vamo, vamo, vamo.

La Familia Madrigal!

(CAMERA FLASHES)

(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)

Don’t be upset or mad at all

Don’t feel regret Or sad at all

Hey, I’m still a part Of the family Madrigal

And I’m fine I am totally fine

I will stand on the side As you shine

I’m not fine I’m not fine

I can’t move the mountains

I can’t make flowers bloom

I can’t take another night Up in my room

Waiting on a miracle

I can’t heal what’s broken

Can’t control the morning rain Or a hurricane

Can’t keep down The unspoken invisible pain

Always waiting on a miracle A miracle

Always walking alone

Always wanting for more

Like I’m still at that door Longing to shine

Like all of you shine

All I need is a change

All I need is a chance

All I know Is I can’t stay on the side

Open your eyes

Open your eyes Open your eyes

I would move the mountains

Make new trees and flowers grow

Someone please Just let me know where do I go

I am waiting on a miracle A miracle

I would heal what’s broken

Show this family something new

Who I am inside So what can I do?

I’m sick of waiting On a miracle

So here I go

I am ready Come on, I’m ready

I’ve been patient And steadfast and steady

Bless me now

As you blessed us All those years ago

When you gave us a miracle

Am I too late for a miracle?

The tiles were falling, and there were cracks everywhere.

And the candle almost went out.

(INDISTINCT MURMURING)

Show me.

MIRABEL:
What? (GASPS)

No, that’s…

The cracks were there.

They were everywhere.

The house was in trouble, the candle was…

(SCOFFS)

Abuela, I promise…

That’s enough.

There is nothing wrong with La Casa Madrigal.

The magic is strong.

And so are the drinks.

Please! Music!

A bailar! A bailar!

Psst.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

MIRABEL:
If it was all in my head, how did I cut my hand?

I would never ruin Antonio’s night.

Is that really what you think?

What I think is that today was very hard for you.

That’s… (GRUNTS)

I was looking out for the family.

And I might not be super strong like Luisa, or effortlessly perfect like señorita perfecta Isabela who’s never even had a bad hair day, but…

(SIGHS) Whatever.

I wish you could see yourself the way I do.

You are perfect just like this.

You’re just as special as anyone else in this family.

Mm-hmm.

You just healed my hand with an arepa con queso.

I healed your hand with my love for my daughter with her wonderful brain…

(GROANS)

…and big heart, cool glasses…

Stop!

Mamá!

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

(IN ENGLISH) I know what I saw.

(SIGHS)

Mira, my brother Bruno lost his way in this family.

I don’t want the same for you.

Get some sleep.

You’ll feel better tomorrow.

(SIGHS)

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

(GRUNTS)

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACH)

(GASPS SOFTLY)

Ay, Pedro.

I need you.

Cracks in our casita.

If our family knew how vulnerable we truly are…

If our miracle is dying…

We cannot lose our home again.

(SIGHS) Why is this happening?

Open my eyes.

If the answer is here, help me find it.

Help me protect our family.

Help me save our miracle.

I will save the miracle.

(UPLIFTING MUSIC PLAYS)

Wait. How do I save a miracle?

(CREAKS)

I figure out what’s happening to the miracle.

Oh, I have no idea.

But there is one person in this family who hears everything about everything.

So, if anyone would know what’s wrong with the magic…

Hey!

MIRABEL:
…it’s her.

Dolores, hey.

You know, out of all my older cousins, you’re, like, my favorite cousin, so I feel like I can talk to you about anything, ergo you can talk to me about anything.

Like the problem with the magic last night that no one seemed to worry about, but maybe you heard about that maybe I should know about.

Camilo! Stop pretending you’re Dolores so you can have seconds.

Worth a shot. Ah! (GRUNTS)

(GROANS)

The only one worried about the magic is you and the rats talking in the walls.

Oh, and Luisa, I heard her eye twitching all night. (SQUEAKS)

There we go.

Everyone, to the table! Let’s go, let’s go.

Luisa.

ABUELA:
Family.

We are all thankful for Antonio’s wonderful new (GRUNTS) Gift.

I told them to warm up your seat.

Thank you, Toñito.

I’m sure today we’ll find a way to put your blessings to good use.

(SOFTLY) Luisa, Dolores says you’re totally freaking out.

Any chance you maybe know something about last night with the magic…

(GASPS) You do!

ABUELA:
Mirabel!

If you can’t pay attention, I will help you.

Oh, actually…

Casita!

(GRUNTING)

As I was saying, we must never take our miracle for granted, so today we will work twice as hard.

Mm-hmm. I will help Luisa.

Stop.

(GRUNTING)

First, an announcement.

I’ve spoken to the Guzmáns about Mariano’s proposal to Isabela.

Dolores, do we have a date?

Tonight. He wants five babies.

(ISABELA GULPS)

Wonderful!

Such a fine young man with our perfect Isabela will bring a new generation of magical blessings and make both of our families stronger.

(MAKES KISSING SOUNDS)

Okay. Our community is counting on us.

La Familia Madrigal!

ALL:
La Familia Madrigal!

La Familia Madrigal!

Luisa, hey. What?

(GRUNTS) Sorry.

What is your problem?

MIRABEL:
Hey! Luisa, hold up!

(LUISA GRUNTS)

(BELLS RINGING)

SEÑORA OZMA:
Luisa, can you re-route the river?

Will do.

Luisa, the donkeys got out again.

LUISA:
On it.

(GRUNTS)

Luisa! (YELPS)

Wait a second! (GROANS)

You gotta tell me about the magic.

What’s going on? What are you hiding?

Nothing. Just got a lot of chores, so maybe you should just go home.

Luisa, my house is leaning to the…

Dolores said your eye was twitching, and it never twitches.

Something’s making you nervous.

Hey, move. You’re gonna make me drop a donkey.

Luisa, will you just… (SCOFFS)

Just tell me what it is.

There’s nothing to tell.

You’re obviously worried about something.

Luisa, if you know what’s hurting the magic and it gets worse, ’cause you won’t tell me what’s wrong…

(LOUDLY) Nothing’s wrong!

Wow, uh, sorry.

That… That snuck out there. What I meant was, um…

Why would anything be wrong?

I’m totally fine. The magic’s fine.

Luisa’s fine. I’m totally not nervous.

Your eye is doing the thing…

I’m the strong one I’m not nervous I’m as tough as the crust Of the Earth is

Okay.

LUISA:
I move mountains

I move churches

And I glow ’cause I know What my worth is

Of course, I mean… Hey, where are you going?

I don’t ask How hard the work is

Got a rough Indestructible surface

Diamonds and platinum

I find ’em I flatten ’em

I take what I’m handed I break what’s demanded

But under the surface I feel berserk

As a tightrope walker In a three-ring circus

Under the surface Was Hercules ever like

“Yo, I don’t wanna fight Cerberus”

(SCREAMS, WHIMPERS)

Under the surface

I’m pretty sure I’m worthless If I can’t be of service

A flaw or a crack

The straw in the stack That breaks the camel’s back

What breaks the camel’s back?

It’s pressure Like a drip, drip, drip

That’ll never stop

Whoa

Pressure that’ll tip, tip, tip Till you just go pop

Whoa

Give it to your sister Your sister’s older

Give her all the heavy things We can’t shoulder

Who am I If I can’t run with the ball?

If I fall to pressure Like a grip, grip, grip

And it won’t let go

Whoa

Pressure like A tick, tick, tick

Till it’s ready to blow

Whoa

Give it to your sister Your sister’s stronger

See if she can hang on A little longer

Who am I If I can’t carry it all?

If I falter

Under the surface

I hide my nerves And it worsens

I worry Something is gonna hurt us

Under the surface

The ship doesn’t swerve

As it heard How big the iceberg is

Under the surface I think about my purpose

Can I somehow preserve this? Line up the dominos

A light wind blows You try to stop it topplin’

But on and on it goes But wait

If I could shake

The crushing weight Of expectations

Would that free Some room up for joy

Or relaxation?

Or a simple pleasure Instead we measure

This growing pressure Keeps growing

Keep going ‘Cause all we know is

Pressure like A drip, drip, drip

That’ll never stop

Whoa

Pressure that’ll tip, tip, tip Till you just go pop

Whoa

Give it to your sister It doesn’t hurt

And see if she can handle Every family burden

Watch as she buckles And bends but never breaks

No mistakes

Just pressure Like a grip, grip, grip

And it won’t let go

Whoa

Pressure like A tick, tick, tick

Till it’s ready to blow

Whoa

Give it to your sister And never wonder

If the same pressure Would have pulled you under

Who am I If I don’t have what it takes?

No cracks No breaks

No mistakes No pressure

(PANTING)

(SIGHS)

I think you’re carrying way too much… (GRUNTS)

Maybe I overdo it.

Yep.

Um… There is something you should know.

Last night, when you saw the cracks,

I felt weak.

(HESITATING) What?

MAN:
Luisa! The donkeys!

On it!

Wait, wait, wait. What do you mean?

What do you think’s hurting the magic?

Don’t know, but I heard the grown-ups once.

Before Tío Bruno left, he had, like, some terrible vision about it.

Tío Bruno? What was in his vision?

No one knows. They never found it.

But if something’s wrong with the magic, start with Bruno’s tower.

Find that vision.

Wait! How do you find a vision?

What am I even looking for?

(DONKEY BRAYS)

If you find it, you’ll know.

But be careful.

That place is off limits for a reason.

ABUELA:
Such a perfect match.

So perfect.

And so good for the encanto.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

(GRUNTING)

Hmm.

Casita.

Can you turn off the sand?

(FLOOR TILES RUMBLING)

You can’t help in here?

I’ll be fine.

I need to do this.

For you, for Abuela, maybe a little for me.

(EXHALES)

“Find the vision, save the…”

(SCREAMS)

(GROANS)

(SPITS)

Wow.

Oh, hello.

(SQUAWKS)

Lot of stairs, but at least I’ll have a friend.

No. He flew away immediately.

(SQUAWKING)

(GROANS)

All right.

(SINGING) Welcome to the family Madrigal

There’s so many stairs In the casa Madrigal

You think there would be Another way to

Get so high ‘Cause we’re magic, but no

Magical how many stairs fit in here!

Bruno, your room is the worst!
