Guys, Mr. Diaz just handed me a letter.

It's from the Portland
Spring Parade Committee.

It must be about
the float design competition we entered.

It's probably a rejection letter.

Yeah, they say
an envelope's always thin when it's a no.

We won!

(all squealing)

I knew we'd win.

Of course. It's a thin envelope.

All they had to do was write "yes."

I mean, who wouldn't love our idea?

Bold women forging through history.

Now all we have to do is build the float.

Wait, do any of us know
how to build a float?

No.

-No.
-Yes.

Oh, wait, no.

Well, my mom's awesome at paper-mache.

She paper-mache'd me a friend
when I first moved here.

Oh, Danielle? She was nice.

It was so sad when she melted in the rain.

And my mom was taking painting classes
until my brothers broke her brushes.

And her spirit.

Ooh, I have an idea.
Let's make this a mother-daughter thing.

-Great idea!
-It is perfect.

Oh, no.

Syd, we're so sorry. We weren't thinking.

Yeah, we shouldn't do
a mother-daughter thing

when one of us, you know,
doesn't have a mom.

Guys, guys, don't be silly.
We should totally do it.

Grandma Judy is going out of town

but I am sure that my dad
would love to help with the float.

And besides,
who's a better mom than my dad?

Max, for the last time,

I don't think a bagel
and a donut are brothers.

For one, baked goods can't be related.

-What is that girl doing?
-I don't know,

but she's got wheels on her feet.

I've never seen anything like that before.

Three, two, one.

I gotta have a pair of those.

It'd be like having a skateboard
glued to your feet.

I'm gonna ask my mom for a pair.

They're not for me.
I prefer my morning strolls.

In autumn, I collect leaves.

Seasons change, but I never will.

OK, guys, I wanted to start
our planning meeting

by float...ing an idea by you.

(laughs)

I told you it wouldn't work.

Now the first thing that we have to do is
pick a woman from history

that we each want to represent
on the float.

Ooh, ooh, I call Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

She's my favorite Supreme Court Justice.

Aw, RBG is why I became a lawyer.

Well, that and a lot of pressure
from my parents.

Emmy, who were you thinking?

Both: Frida Kahlo!

Samesies!

We both said samesies!

What?

Wow, you guys are closer
than Frida Kahlo's eyebrows.

OK, Olive, you're up.

I'm honoring the woman
who discovered radioactivity,

Marie Curie.

She was fearless, like me.

(gasps) Bup-bup-bup!

Sanitize first.

Thanks, Mom. Close one.

Wow, Grandma J came to slay.

Thanks, Sophia.
I'm going to party in Vegas

with my old DMV squad.

They live life in the fast lane
all night long.

I guess that's why the DMV
is so slow the rest of the time.

I'm sorry I can't help you
with your float, Noodle.

Oh, that's OK. I've got Dad.

Remember, I'm just a phone call away.

Ow, what was that for?

No one throws shade at the DMV. Deuces.

So, who are you honoring, Syd?

I can't make up my mind.
There's so many groundbreaking women.

What about my she-ro, famous chef

Julia Child?

I mean, not that I only look up
to women who can cook.

I look up to all kinds of women.

-It's OK, Dad, we appreciate the--
-Because women can do way more than cook.

Not that they need to do more.

I mean, if you wanna cook, then you just
march right into that kitchen and...

That did not come out right.

How about you and I

-march into that kitchen?
-OK.

Dad, maybe it would be better
if you just sat this one out.

What? Why?

You know, because of the over-explaining,

man-pologizing person
you've apparently body swapped with.

I'm not doing that.
I mean, I'm not saying that

I don't believe you because I believe that

every woman has the...
Yep, I am doing that.

And since this float is honoring women,

I think it should be an all-women effort.

I could work with Olive and her mom.
It'll be fun.

Are you sure?

Yes. Besides, you'll be too busy
clearing out the garage

so that we can work in it.

Not that I think clearing out the garage
is only a man's job.

I just really don't want to do it.

Mom, the greatest thing happened
at school today.

I'm guessing from your excitement
it has nothing to do with actual school.

I saw this girl wearing
those new Rollster shoes.

I gotta have 'em, Mom.

Are those those shoes you can skate
and walk at the same time?

-Yeah.
-Yeah, you're not getting those.

It's like rewatching your favorite movie.

You know where it's going,
but it's still fun to watch.

Forget it. They're too dangerous.

But I'm a boarder.

If I can handle four wheels,
I can handle two.

If you can handle two,
you can handle none.

This is so unfair.

So what if they're dangerous?

Her cooking's dangerous,
and I eat that all the time.

It is scary thinking
every meal could be your last.

What do you do when your mom says no?

I ask my dad, and he says
"What did your mom say?"

Then I say, "She said no."

Then he says no.

It's a complicated game.

That I'm realizing now
I don't need to play.

That's it. I'll just call my dad.

He and my mom never talk.

I'm about to make
this whole divorce thing work for me.

Hey Dad, what's up?

I haven't seen you for a long, long,

long time.

No, you don't have to make it up to me.

OK, they're called Rollsters.

This is going to be so much fun.
Let's get started.

Emmy and Mrs. Mendoza,
you will be in the garage

working on props for Frida Kahlo.

Isn't it crazy that we'll be painting
a painting of a painter with paint?

I was just gonna say that.

Me too! And then I did.

Olive, we will be out here,

and, Sophia, you and your mom
can work on RBG in the living room.

-Counselor?
-Counselor?

Let's adjourn.

Hey, girls. So sorry I'm late,

but I figured what better float fuel

than your favorite drink,
peppermint hot chocolate?

Or, pep-ho-cho.

As you both have told me not to call it.

Thanks, Mrs. Rozalski.

Hey, Mom, I had the best idea.

For Marie Curie, we could put

a giant beaker on the float.

(gasps) I could not love that more.

Thanks, Mom. I'll just grab a staple gun

-and we can get--
-Ooh, staple gun.

You could hurt yourself.

Let's not forget the incident
with the paper flower.

I was seven.

Wiggle worm, you know
you'll always be my little baby.

Mom, I really don't like
when you say that.

Oh, stop making such a fuss.

OK, I will do all the stapling
and you get the cardboard.

But I use a staple gun
at school all the time.

Aw, I just love it when your little face
gets all red and frustrated.

See? You're doing it again.
You're babying me.

I'm not doing anything.

Yes, you are.

Oh, you know, I just remembered,

Emmy and her mom are gonna...

gonna need this bag of,

whatever this is.

Emmy, you aren't gonna believe it.

It's so awkward out there.

Olive and her mom are fighting.

They are? That's terrible.

Mom, that's not where that palette goes!

Trust me, you'll love it here.

But I don't love it there.

Oh, honey, please, what else would
you like better than me?

Both: Me!

Stop it!

Wait, this isn't the living room.

Mom, I don't want the scales.
I want the gavel.

But the scales of justice say
Ruth Bader Ginsburg more.

But Mom, this is my float.

May I point out that
earlier today, you agreed that

the scales were, I quote, "better."

And may I present exhibit A,

your text from this morning which reads,

"love the gavel, heart emoji, heart emoji,

heart emoji."

-I object.
-On what grounds?

I'm your mother!

Oh, boy.

I'm not babying you, wiggle worm.
You're just being sensitive.

Have you eaten today?
I have string cheese in my purse.

Look, I don't want cheese,
I am not being sensitive,

and if I need my nose booped,
I will boop it myself.

See? Boop, boop, boop, boop.

I quit.

-Sorry, Syd.
-Wiggle worm, wait.

Emmy, where are you going?

My mom's impossible.

This mother-daughter thing
was a terrible idea. I'm leaving.

I'm out, too.

OK, good first day, everybody.

-Hey, Syd, how's it going out there?
-Horrible.

My friends all got in fights
with their moms and quit.

Wow, I'm so sorry.

I don't know why. I mean,
me and Mom never fought like that.

Well, you were younger then.
You girls are teenagers now,

and that's when mothers and daughters
can really butt heads.

But if Mom were here, I know that
we'd be having fun working on that float.

I wouldn't waste time arguing with her.

I wish my friends knew how lucky they are.

Yeah, it's easy to forget that
at this age.

You're right.

Maybe they need someone to remind them.

Oh, Syd, I don't think
that that's my place to...

Oh, you meant you. That is way better.

Hey, Syd, we got your text.

So glad you wanted to
talk about the float.

Yeah, the way today ended was wrong.

It wouldn't make sense for us to quit,
not after we've worked so hard.

Exactly.

So how do we fire our moms?

What? Fire your moms?

Don't you guys think you're being
a little unfair to them?

Unfair? My mom treats me like I'm a baby.

She picks my clothes, she cuts my meat.

I think she'd burp me if I let her.

Try having a mom who's a lawyer.

When we argue, she calls witnesses.

She made my Gram-Gram testify against me.

My mom's just plain annoying.

Her squeaky little voice drives me nuts.

Guys, I know that
your moms can be frustrating,

but they love you
and you are so lucky to have them.

I'd give anything to have my mom here now.

You're right, Syd.

Maybe I am taking my mom for granted.

Me, too.

So you guys will come back
and try to get along with your moms?

-Yes.
-Absolutely.

Mommy? I'm sorry. I love you so much.

(knocking at door)

So you get the Rollsters?

The delivery company my dad works for
sent them overnight.

They should be here any second.

What if your mom sees them?

Don't worry. She's not here.

She gets her hair done once a month.

I don't know who
that lady's trying to impress.

Mom, what are you doing home?

Eh, I canceled my appointment.
Who am I trying to impress?

Leo, you gotta distract my mom
until my Rollsters show up.

How?

Uh... Say you're hungry and ask her
to make you a tuna melt omelet.

She loves making that thing.

But it's disgusting.

Are you a friend or not?

Fine, but next time I'm in a pickle,
I expect you to repay the favor.

I... I don't know how you can get
trapped inside of a pickle,

but OK, dude.

Miss Reynolds.

Yes, Leo?

I'm hungry.

Can I impose on you to make your famous...

tuna melt omelet?

I'd love to!

My secret is warm cottage cheese.

(knocking at door)

Max Reynolds?

My Rollsters are here!

Enjoy 'em, kid.

Yes! Come on,
let's go try these bad boys out.

Good, let's get out of here.

Leo, omelet's almost ready.

Come on in here.

OK.

Well, good luck, buddy.

Oh, hey, everybody.

-How's it going?
-Wonderful.

-Great.
-Awesome.

OK. So how is it really going?

No, it's really going great.

Yeah. My mom and I
haven't argued once today.

Me neither, not even when she said
I looked so cute with the headband.

Did I wanna wear a headband? No.

Do I wanna get along with my mom?

I'll let the headband answer that.

Well, I am so proud of you guys.
Now let's get to work.

But Syd, you still haven't decided

which woman you're honoring yet.
Who are you gonna dress up as?

Not sure, but I have narrowed it down
to Beyonce or Elizabeth II.

Ooh, that's tough.

One is a queen
and the other is Elizabeth II.

All right,
now let's get these props ready.

I'll start hot gluing.

Oh, no, no, no, wiggle worm,

that's dangerous. Let me do that.

Thanks for looking out for me.

Aw, always and forever.

Sophia, will you help me
with the silver scales of justice?

I thought we were painting them gold?

Objection, I think silver says justice

a little more than gold.

Guess I'm overruled.

You know what would look great
next to that?

The easel, especially
covered in rhinestones.

I thought we agreed it'd be glitter.

Oh, the rhinestones just pop more, honey.

How can you...

make such a good point?

Angela, Deb, why don't we get started
on the rhinestones?

I've got the glue gun.
We're gonna make this float amazing.

Hey, Sophia, will you help me with the...

You know what? Never mind. We got this.

Guys, what's going on here?

We're just trying to get along
with our moms like you said.

Well, maybe I was wrong.

Yesterday, I thought that
you were overreacting,

but maybe I overreacted.

I mean, your moms are taking over.
Look at them.

Syd, it's OK. We're letting it go.

Well, maybe I can't.

Uh, hey, moms, excuse me for a sec,

but this float is honoring bold women

who forged their own paths
with their own ideas.

I think maybe you need to
let your daughters do the same.

Olive, is that how you feel?

Yeah.

When you baby me,

it feels like you don't think
I'm capable of doing things for myself.

Sophia, do you really think
I'm controlling?

Because I don't think I'm controlling.

I don't think you should, either.
Oh, I hear that now.

Emmy, I never realized you felt this way.

It never bothered me until now.

I am so sorry.

I want to raise a bold woman.

And I can't do that
if I don't give you room to grow up.

Thanks, Mom. I love you.

I love you, too, Ollie.

I'm so sorry we fought.

Me, too.

Both: Let's never fight again.

OK.

All right, girls.

Let's get to work.

You got it.

Come on Syd.

Uh, you guys start.
I forgot something in the house.

Hey, Syd. Where you going?

Upstairs.

Aren't you supposed to be
working on the float?

I don't wanna do it anymore.

Not without Mom.

Hey.

Hey.

What happened?

Well, you know how

I hated seeing the girls
fight with their moms?

Yeah?

Well, they made up.

And it made me feel even worse.

Seeing them work through something
and then get closer.

I will never get to do that with Mom.

I'm so sorry, Syd.

I love that picture of her.

Sydney: Me, too.

I guess I'm not as fine
with all this as I thought I was.

I wish there was something I could do
to help you get through this.

Wait, I could... No.

Unless, I... No.

But in a wig.

No.

Guess who's back?

Mom, I am so glad you're here.

Your timing is perfect.

Now you can help Syd finish her float.

I'd love to.

I'm never too exhausted for my noodle.

Thanks for always stepping in, Grandma.

You've always made it feel like
I was never missing out.

But... this time,
no one can replace my mom.

Ow, my butt bone hurts.

You probably bruised it.

And I told you not to Rollster
down that slide at the park.

How was I supposed to know
a five-year-old was climbing up the slide?

That's dangerous.

That's why I kept saying,

"Max, there's a five-year-old
climbing up the slide."

I can't keep track of
all the words you say.

Man, I don't want to be here

when your mom finds out
you went behind her back.

She's not gonna find out. I can fake it.

It only really hurts when I sit.

Max, dinner's ready. Come sit down.

(groans)

To quote an old friend, good luck, buddy.

(door closes)

You got Chinese takeout?

I felt bad not getting you those shoes,

and I wanted to make it up to you
so I got you your favorite.

Have a seat and dig in.

What are you doing?

Workin' on my quads.

Yep, felt that burn.

Max, why aren't you sitting down?

I heard that standing while you eat
makes you less gassy.

You're welcome.

Stop messing around and sit down.

Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow.

What's wrong?

Fine. I hurt my tailbone.

After you said no...

I asked Dad to get me
the Rollsters, and I fell.

You went behind my back
and called your father?

I can't believe it.

Really? 'Cause it kind of
feels like that screams Max.

Max, you are so grounded.

Aw, man.

I thought I finally found
the one good thing

about having divorced parents.

Max, look, I know it's not easy
since your dad and I split up,

but that doesn't mean
you can use us against each other.

I'm sorry.

I won't do it again.

Fine. You're not grounded.

But you're giving me those Rollsters.

And in exchange, I'm giving you this.

What's that?

We use it at the DMV
when we've been sitting too long.

It's called a tushie donut.

Thanks, Mom.

You could also call it a tushie bagel.

They're cousins, you know.

(sighs)

-Hey, Max.
-Hey, guys.

How's Syd feeling?

Yesterday was a tough day for her.

She's really missing her mom.

Maybe I could go up and talk to her?

Oh, that's sweet of you, Olive,

but I think she just
wants to be left alone.

But, hey, you guys have
a float to finish, come on.

-Syd?
-Hi, guys.

Honey, I'm surprised to see you out here.

I thought you didn't want
to work on the float anymore.

I didn't.

But then I figured out
who I wanted to honor most.

My mom.

Syd, that's beautiful.

This float is a tribute
to strong, bold women

and there's no one that I look up to more

than Dr. Alicia Reynolds.

It's perfect.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Your mom would love it.

Both: So many feels.

You girls look amazing.

Syd, you are the spitting image
of your mom.

And Emmy, you look just like Frida Kahlo.

What is that eyebrow made out of?

Real hair. My brother's
a very heavy sleeper.

And Sophia, you make a great RBG.

Yeah, I think you could totally
rock those glasses in real life.

These are my real glasses.

Oh, I see why you don't wear them.

Hey, everyone, let's get together
for a group photo.

-Oh, Dad, could you take it?
-Of course.

OK, now, everyone smile.

Not that I'm one of those men

who tell women that
they need to smile more.

You smile as much as you want, or don't.

In fact, frown. (chuckles)

But I shouldn't tell you
what to do with your face. That's...

You know, I think I'm just gonna put this

on a timer and go.

All: Cheese!
