You're late.

I didn't invest in Lop-E.Z. Movers to lose money.

Didn't you put this client meeting in your calendar?

I don't have a calendar.

On the day of a move, I get a call from the client saying,

"Where the hell are you?"

Then I tell 'em, "Around the corner." And I jump in the shower.

Landing this commercial move would be big for us.

There's the client.

Remember the number one rule in business.

Shut up. Let me do the talking.

Hi, there, I'm George Lopez, founder of Lop-E.Z. Movers.

As you can see, I only have the strongest members on my crew.

Momo here can do 50 push-ups.

He's right.

I pushed up 50 of my cousins over the fence at the border.

And I've hired them all.

Lop-E.Z. Movers, a sanctuary business.

You're literally lifting up your community.

90% of our profits goes to a Latina businesswoman...

me.

I reviewed your bid.

I just need to talk to one more Latino-run moving company.

- Maybe you know the owner. - Oh, so why is that?

Because I'm Latino, we have to know every other Latino?

- Jorge, hey, George! - [LAUGHS]

Danny Martinez.

- So you do know each other. - Mm.

Thank goodness. I was sweating there for a second.

George used to work for Danny.

He was kind of his mentor.

Oh, I'll give you two a moment to catch up.

This is the part where I quiet my own voice to amplify yours.

You seem to have a lot of bankable white guilt.

Why don't we discuss your insurance needs?

I'm excited to meet your mentor,

you know, since you're my mentor.

I'm not your mentor.

What you trying to do? Turn this into "The Momo Show"?

"The George Lopez Show" is on right now.

We don't have any room for guest stars.

This guy been trying to pull me down my entire career.

George, I know we've had our differences in the past,

- but I'm a changed man now. - You've changed?

You've had that same ponytail for the last 30 years.

And let me tell you something. It's not as cool as you think it looks.

I think it's badass.

George, I'm a new man,

ever since I started practicing the art of tai chi.

It's helped my rage and my "siratica."

I don't care about your "siratica" or your chai tea.

Once I named my business Lop-E.Z. Movers,

he named his business

Martin-E.Z. Movers to steal customers.

I was E.Z. first.

It's pronounced "Martin-eez,"

because white people love martinis,

like they love donuts, tacos,

and the "Spy Kids" trilogy.

Oh, yeah.

There you are. Mommy meeting is about to start.

I have been stalling for as long as I can,

but we have already discussed the entire "Vanderpump" saga.

Oh, thanks.

You know, this rabbit was in labor,

and it just kept going and going and going.

Hey. It's okay.

I'm just glad you can make it now that your night classes are done.

Yeah, you know, hopefully, I can take it over from here

and you can join the daddy group.

There is no daddy group.

I tried to start one, but the dads,

they just kept forwarding all the messages to the moms.

Okay. Well, who do I talk to

about getting on the mommy group text?

Don't rush it.

Natalia will let you in when she's ready.

Is Natalia that super mom who runs every committee?

Yes. And she controls who gets invited to play dates.

So if she doesn't like us,

Chance will end up being the lonely boy

playing with worms under the bleachers.

Don't worry, babe.

We're two Latina moms.

She's probably going to be happy I'm there now,

because we speak the same language.

Unless she speaks Spanish. In that case, we don't.

And that's when I said, "Hard-boiled eggs for lunch?

What is this, Guant�namo?" [LAUGHTER]

[LAUGHS]

Natalia, you are a hoot and a half.

Guant�na-yes to that joke.

[LAUGHS] Oh, you must be Mayan.

It is so great to finally meet you.

We missed you at the last...

every meeting we've ever had.

Yeah, sorry, I've just been so busy working at the vet,

and I was taking night classes.

I try to do it all...

bring home the bacon and wrap it around a little smokie.

Bacon-wrapped little smokie?

I never eat meat wrapped in meat.

Anyway, we were just discussing

what our next school event should be.

Oh, what about Career Day?

You know, the kids can learn about different jobs,

and I can bring in some animals from my work.

ALL: Aww.

That is adorable.

- I'm allergic. - I will turn it into a stew.

What about Culture Day?

- ALL: Ooh. - Yeah.

Families can bring in foods and items

from their unique cultural backgrounds.

Yeah, and maybe the kids can come dressed in costumes

that represent their culture.

Mayan, we can't have kids showing up

in problematic headdresses.

This isn't Coachella.

[LAUGHTER]

Oh, but don't worry.

We'll figure it out in the group text.

Oh, about that, I'd love to be added.

Oh, no need. Quinten can just fill you in.

He keeps us very entertained.

He's like the Andy Cohen of our mom squad.

You ladies are incorrigible.

[LAUGHTER]

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

? ?

No one would even touch these after Natalia said,

"I don't eat meat wrapped in meat."

That's crazy.

The outside meat enhances the flavor of the inside meat.

Look, everyone just goes along with what Natalia says.

Once she assumed I was from Florida.

So now I'm from Florida.

I bought jorts.

She won't even let me contribute.

I mean, what does she have against me?

- Is she Latina? - Yeah, so?

- She's a bucket crab. - What's that?

It's when Latinos try to pull each other down

like crabs in a bucket.

It's what Danny Martinez has been doing to me.

Dad, we're talking about my thing.

See, when I first opened my business,

Danny wanted to be the only successful Latino mover in town.

So what'd he do? He stole my name,

tore up my flyers, and tried to poach my employees

by offering them minimum wage.

My generation of Latin�s doesn't do that.

We support each other.

Natalia's not a bucket crab. She just doesn't like me.

Sounds to me like she's knocking you down

so that she can be the only Latina mom in the group that shines.

No, I'm sure there's other Latina moms

in the group who shine, right, Quinten?

There's two others.

But I do not know their names

because Natalia calls them number two and number three.

You see, number four?

I know what I'm talking about, Mayan. Trust me.

I've been dealing with crabs since my early 20s.

Good news. We got the job.

The client loved you, even after meeting you in person.

Because I'm irresistible to white women.

They like me, because I smell like a coconut drink

they can drink on Rosarito Beach

while they're getting their hair braided.

Well, she also loved Danny,

so she suggested that you do it together.

No way. Absolutely not.

I'm not working with that Mexican Rapunzel.

You have no choice.

This client loves supporting Latino businesses.

I don't know what skeletons are in her closet,

but they're probably named Paco and Chuy.

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

It's nice you came to pick up Chance with me.

Yeah, well, I realized as a mom,

I really should spend more time with Natalia.

I am getting on that mommy group text.

Mayan?

I've never seen you on school grounds before.

Did security give you a hassle?

It's okay! She's actually a parent!

A working parent.

But I pick up Chance all the time.

Mommy? What are you doing here?

It's okay! She's actually my mommy!

Okay, so for Culture Day,

I was thinking you could bring

one of your traditional Florida dishes.

[IN SOUTHERN ACCENT] I got a whole mess

of gator nuggets fixin' to fry.

Oh, I'll be coming too, so what can I bring?

Oh, okay.

How about spanakopita?

Ooh, or tzatziki?

Why?

Because you're Greek. Right?

I mean... [CHUCKLES]

The eyebrows.

No. I'm Mexican and Cuban.

No way. Me too.

Well, whatever booth you want is yours.

- Oh, then I'll take Mexico. - Oh, that one's mine.

Okay, well, what about Cuba?

- Oh, also mine. - [CHUCKLES]

I'm a quarter Dominican.

I'm covering all of Latin America.

So what's available?

Greece.

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

? ?

I can't believe I'm stuck working with someone I can't stand.

You get used to it.

You don't get it. Danny's going to sabotage me like he always does.

That guy's only out for himself.

Hey, I brought donuts.

Oh, so thoughtful,

and thank you again for being open to collaborating.

- [CHUCKLES] - Teamwork makes the dream work.

George, we packed all these boxes.

You guys can move them.

- All right. - Let's go, guys.

- You see? - Danny's not trying to hurt you.

Augh!

You see that? He rigged this on purpose!

All right, the crab has come out of the cocoon.

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

I think your spanakopita might be ready...

[SNIFFS]

20 minutes ago.

Ooh.

Oh, come on.

Augh. [SIGHS]

Natalia knows I'm not Greek.

She just doesn't want me to outshine her

with my delicious Mexican or Cuban dishes.

You don't know how to cook those foods either.

But my mom does, and I could have taken the credit.

[LINE TRILLING]

Oh, it's Natalia.

- [PHONE CHIMES] - Hola, hermana.

Oh, hi, hermana.

I just wanted to let you know

that you don't have to stress about the Greek booth.

What? [CHUCKLES]

No, I haven't burned anything.

We found someone else.

Kendra just got back from Santorini,

so she's a little closer to the culture.

Good news.

You don't have to do anything or even show up.

I got to run. Besitos.

Dad, you were right.

Natalia is a bucket crab.

Then do to her what I'ma do to Danny tomorrow.

Crab his ass.

Oh, I will.

I'm going to show up loud and proud,

and I'm going to boil that crab

right out of her Jessica Simpson ballet flats.

You know what?

Group text be damned. I've got your back.

Let's go crabbing.

Take it easy, all right? When we crab, it's courageous.

When you crab, it's racist.

Then I will quiet my claw to amplify yours.

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

Hey.

Have you seen my guys? They seem to have disappeared.

Huh, you can't find your guys? How unprofessional.

I gave his employees some of Mayan's spana-caca.

They'll be in the porta potties all afternoon,

squeezing out a big fat Greek rrrt!

Bucket crabbing is so old-school.

- Shouldn't we break the cycle? - You're right.

We'll cut the brakes on his motorcycle next.

Hey, Danny, you know, the elevator's broken.

Man, do you mind taking these boxes marked "fragile"

- downstairs for me? - Got it. I got it.

I got it.

- [OBJECTS SHATTERING] - I still got it!

You messed with the dolly, George, to make me look bad.

Or did I mess with it to make myself look good?

Big mistake, Lopez.

What you gonna do? You gonna try some of that "tai cheese" on me?

Hey.

I could kill a man four ways with one finger.

You brought a finger to a crab fight?

[BOTH GRUNTING]

Huh? Shouldn't I have been dead six pokes ago?

Oh, it's like that, huh? Come on, then!

[GRUNTS] Oh.

Wow!

My little pony.

What the hell is going on here,

and why is George holding a weave?

- He sabotaged me. - His ponytail's a clip-on.

Okay, that's it. Group meeting right now.

That's a good idea, 'cause I got a lot of questions.

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

Surprise, babosos, I lied.

There's no meeting.

I'm locking you two in here until you figure out

how to stop pinching and fingering each other.

Hey, take this.

You look weird without it.

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

? ?

- Hello, Natalia. - Oh.

- Gator nugget? - Mmm.

Those are going to pair nicely with my mole verde,

featured in "Latina" magazine March 2016.

I bet Mayan was pretty relieved she didn't have to come, huh?

Oh, no, she's coming.

And she is actually very excited to share her heritage.

[DELINQUENT HABITS' "TRES DELINQUENTES]

? ?

[ENGINE RUMBLING]

? ?

? I flex my brasos hard-core down for the clicka' ?

? Who's that emanating funk through the speaka' ?

? Bass gets to thumpin' ruckas get to pumpin' ?

? Who's that rockin' got the party start jumpin' ?

[ENGINE REVVING]

Orale.

What's up, fools?

This Mexicana, Cubana, y Dominicana

is here to celebrate Culture Day.

[HIGH-PITCHED HOLLERING]

Mayan, you are mocking our culture by being a stereotype.

Or am I celebrating it by being dope?

You're the stereotype, bucket crab.

You're the bucket crab.

You're blocking my booth so no one can get to my mole

that America Ferrera once called "not bad."

Take your mole off of my lowrider.

Take your lowrider out of my culture fair.

I'm not moving my mole.

Fine.

I'll do it for you.

Holy mole!

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

We wouldn't be trapped in here

if you didn't try to sabotage me with that box.

That desk lamp almost claimed my last toenail.

Hey, I-I didn't do that.

If I did, I would've stayed to watch and laugh.

[LAUGHS]

Hey, there's a hatch.

We could stack these boxes and climb out.

You know, I was going to say that. Man, you steal everything.

You would steal my hair from my head if you could.

Why can't you just let this go?

You don't understand. I looked up to you.

Why couldn't you support another Latino

just trying to do something for himself?

Growing up, I thought the only way

to make it in the white man's world is to keep our own down.

I can relate.

We all felt that there wasn't enough opportunities for us,

so we all had to fight for that one.

But what has it led to?

We're just too old crabs locked in a truck.

Let's start fresh.

Let me lift you up first.

No, no, no, no. You know what?

Let me lift you up. I insist.

- Okay. - [GRUNTING]

Yeah, yeah. [GRUNTING]

I got you.

[CHUCKLES] All right.

Okay, great. Now help me up.

Once a bucket crab, always a bucket crab!

I curse you, Danny Martinez!

I will dedicate my life to ruining yours!

You will rue the day...

[PANTING]

I just needed a minute to find my machete.

Wow, man. You have changed.

Even your machete's smaller.

Hey, um...

think I could try that ponytail on?

Oh, yeah.

It's so silky.

It's from the Ariana Grande Collection.

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

? ?

I'm sorry I ruined Culture Day.

I just licked mole off a lowrider.

This is the best day ever!

At least you got him to eat my mole.

My own son said it looked like blended Shrek.

That's why I like Chance. He appreciates what I do.

Thanks.

I like your kid, too.

He's really, um...

I don't know who your kid is. I'm sorry.

Don't be. He's a biter.

I shouldn't have called you a bucket crab.

When you called me Greek, you hit my biggest insecurity...

not feeling Latina enough.

I thought your biggest insecurity was being a working mom

and not going to a lot of school events.

I have a lot of insecurities, okay?

Being a Latina is hard.

Add mom to that, and it can just feel impossible sometimes.

You sure make it look easy, though.

[SCOFFS] I wish.

When you brought up Career Day,

it brought out my biggest insecurity...

not having a career.

People think that stay-at-home moms

have no personality outside of being a mom,

but I have a personality.

It's grating, but I have one.

Well, now that we know what it feels like

to be on a Nickelodeon show,

can you finally add me to the group text?

Are you sure?

It's mostly just Quinten bombarding us with Andy Cohen GIFs.

Girl, he gave himself that title.

[UPBEAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC]

? ?

Oh, look, you two scuttled out of your bucket.

I'm glad I locked you both in that truck.

Why? Because we resolved all our issues?

No, because without you tontos,

we finished this move in record time.

Maybe the reason why you two aren't more successful

isn't bucket crabbing.

It's that you're terrible at your jobs.

You know, maybe I should just give up and sell tacos for a living.

I know I said you weren't my mentee, but if you want,

I could show you the ropes.

Maybe one day, you can start your own moving company.

Thanks.

I already know what I'm going to call it.

MoMo-MovingCo.

It's too bad your name's not Stuart.

You could call it Stu-Stu-Stupido.

I'm getting so much out of this mentorship.

Come on.
