DJ: Well, folks, make no mistake, it's hot out there.

Hot as hell and dry as a nun's gusset.

And we're goin' on our ninth year,

nary a drop of rain from the heavens.

But as we look forward to the fall and a visit

from the Queen of the South herself, let's whet our

ears with a spritely version of her Steady as the Rain.

We're here to humbly serve, you're listenin'' to Radio HQ.

BOY VOICEOVER: One day...

I found something important.

(BIRD SQUAWKS)

My Abuela one day said,

"You find the most important things

"when you're not looking."

(BALL THUDS)

That day, I was not looking.

So, when I found it...

I knew it was important.

That is my friend, Peeti.

He is always looking.

But mostly because he cannot blink.

(MOODY ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

Papa came here to start living in a quiet place.

But when I was born, it got hot and it hasn't stopped,

and people in the town got tired.

(WOOD CREAKS)

I like it because it's quiet.

(PEACEFUL ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

When I was a baby, our house bent down.

So Papa put a stick to always keep it back up.

(BALL THUDS)

(PEACEFUL ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

(STICK CREAKS)

Sometimes, Papa is thinking about horses.

But mostly, he is thinking about the stick.

Mama is mostly thinking about other people thinking.

And meatballs.

Sailboat.

What is this little guitar you have on the table?

It's a little guitar I found behind (SPEAKS SPANISH).

To English.

An angry cow.

(PAPA SPEAKS SPANISH)

They can be very angry.

Such a beautiful little guitar.

Such craftsmanship. (HOUSE CREAKS)

Such delicate inlays.

Can you play on this little guitar?

No, but I was thinking to teach it to myself.

We will love whatever comes from you

brushing on this little guitar.

We are blessed with you.

(WOOD CREAKS)

SAILBOAT: Papa's good at listening.

Did you check the stick when you returned

from leaving the manger?

No.

We must never forget.

I will do it first thing.

(PEACEFUL ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

SAILBOAT: My Abuela one day said,

"Some things happen,

"so other things can happen."

(GUITAR PLUCKS) (LIGHT BULB BUZZES)

(PEACEFUL ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

(PAPA GRUNTS)

(HOUSE CREAKS)

My school was also--

(BELL RINGS)

Mostly a quiet place.

(UPBEAT ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

But not everybody liked the quiet.

(MUFFLED ROCK MUSIC)

(SNAKE HISSES)

Like Mr. Bing.

BING: Right!

SAILBOAT: He didn't go to quiet much.

The ultimate challenge, little people.

Bing.

Versus beast.

The serpent.

(SNAKE HISSES)

Jurassic.

You must control the enemy.

You might yourselves, why doesn't he let it out of the bag?

Why don't I let this out of the bag, why?

So it can escape me and bite someone on the neck?

(CHUCKLES) Oh, no, you've got to control the enemy.

That's right, supremacy of the fittest.

Yeah.

So, which one of you little tigers think you've got

the stones to come up here and touch this bag?

Huh?

Didn't think so.

(CHILDREN LAUGH)

(WHISTLE BLOWS) (UPBEAT ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

PEETI: The Rattlesnakes.

The Rattlesnakes.

The Rattlesnakes.

The Rattlesnakes.

You should try soccer with the team.

The Rattlesnakes!

(WHISTLE BLOWS)

SAILBOAT: Things at my school like to stay

mostly the same.

(MUFFLED ROCK MUSIC)

But my Abuela one day said...

(UPBEAT ROCK MUSIC)

"Things can change."

(BELL RINGS)

(EXHAUST BACKFIRES)

How'd your day go?

I fixed the strings on my little guitar.

I got a call today, Abuela is very sick.

(EXHAUST BACKFIRES)

We're goin' to the big city to see her, okay?

(EXHAUST BACKFIRES) (MELODRAMATIC MUSIC)

(MACHINE BLEEPS RHYTHMICALLY) (DOOR CREAKS)

We've come to see how you are.

(BED HUMS)

Madre.

We've come to see if you're well.

They say you're very sick.

Yeah, I didn't believe them.

Did they tell you when you can leave, I mean,

you must be eager to go?

Can we get you anything?

Okay.

Maybe when we come back

Sailboat.

Write me a song on that little guitar.

(PEACEFUL ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

SAILBOAT: Some things happen,

so other things can happen.

Jose.

(MOODY ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

(PIPES RATTLE AND CLANG)

I didn't know about songs. Yeah.

SAILBOAT: But also, Peeti didn't know about soccer,

until he did it all day.

Yeah, Sailboat will write a song for Abuela.

Then she'll go home.

(BALL THUDS)

Little crio makes me nervous near the stick.

He has a problem with his eyes.

(WOOD CREAKS)

(CAR HORN HONKS)

(MOODY ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

If I could blink, I could go for the team.

Mm, but not many people can always keep their eyes open.

A doctor can fix them, but it's a lot of money.

Doctors have big houses and new wives.

PEETI: I think boats would be a lot of money.

It takes no money to look at them and think about them.

Why do you think about them so much?

Because I was born thinking about them.

It is a boat?

It is a sailboat.

He's never seen a sailboat.

Sailboat. (CHUCKLES)

I used to draw them without stopping,

but now I found this book that puts them in pictures,

and the man brings a book when there's a new book.

It's a free book.

(MOODY ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

(BALL THUDS)

(JOSE GRUNTS)

(HOUSE CREAKS)

(SNAKE HISSES)

So!

The ultimate adversary, defeated.

Entoobed.

(CHUCKLES) Yeah.

Enemy controlled.

Humans are the real kings of the forest.

You ever seen a lion entoob a snake?

(CHUCKLES)

I didn't think so.

Since a million years ago,

at the beginning of humans, (CHUCKLES)

suprema, (GROANS) (CHILDREN LAUGH)

Oh no, oh no. (CLATTERING)

(BELL RINGS)

(GUITAR STRUMS)

SAILBOAT: My Abuela one day said,

"It is important to sometimes see with other people's eyes."

Maybe that day I needed Peeti's, because I didn't see

the girl sneaking up to me and my little guitar.

Not until she was all the way close.

(BELL RINGS) (UPBEAT ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

I also didn't see the boy sneaking up.

What you got here, Rowboat?

These ones are very hot.

BOY: Do it.

Why's your guitar so stupid and little?

Oh, my--

(BELL RINGS)

JOSE: What happened to your little guitar?

SAILBOAT: The hungry boy cut the strings.

Where can we find this hungry boy?

(MOODY ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

SAILBOAT: One time, the man who brought the letters told

Mama to stop making the meatballs because she is a meatball,

and Papa got a different look onto his face.

The new man that brings the letters

just smiles with no talking.

After that, Mama didn't go out to people anymore.

JOSE: Sailboat!

SAILBOAT: Papa got that different look

onto his face again. (HEAVY KNOCKS)

Are you the guardian of the hungry boy

who broke Sailboat's little guitar?

Tommy!

TOMMY: I'm playing Hippos!

Tommy!

TOMMY: Hippos!

He might be a few minutes.

Sir, can I get you anything?

(MOODY ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

(HOUSE CREAKS)

SAILBOAT: After that, the boys at school

just smiled with no talking.

And my little guitar was back, ready

for writing my Abuela's song.

But not every day was a day for school.

(HAMMERING THUDS)

(MOODY ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

Sometimes when you think about someone,

everything else goes to quiet.

My Abuela one day said I am lucky,

because I have two things I can think of like this.

And in the quiet,

I could think of some things for Abuela's song.

Well, well, well, little man.

Could set my clock to ya.

I see you got yourself a new acquisition there.

A little guitar, no less.

You know what an acquisition is, little man?

Well, it's somethin' you see and you,

you just gotta have, and so, uh...

So, you acquire it.

Well, anyways, you ain't the only one been acquisitionin',

as you might've noticed.

Alright, you ready? Mm.

Well, I got these three beautiful new babies right here!

Startin' with the American dream, the Chavelle!

Screamin' out for the road and a lifetime of erotic dreams!

Girl on girl!

But if that's not your cup of tea, then turn your loins

to a truck made of meat, the '72 Chevy pickup.

All the muscle in back for a girl, guy, guy,

and if you's in between, and I most highly recommend you is,

you might not even need a sponge cushion.

But!

If your desires are of a more serious kind,

and I can see that they just might be,

this last baby is a Chinese joss house on wheels!

The Chevy G20 Sport van.

Girl, guy, girl, guy, girl, and I could go on all day

and night and I do believe that you could, too,

given half a chance.

So, what'd you think?

I think that's your best one.

I like the part about the truck made of meat.

Yeah, I've been workin' on that all week.

Tryin' to really capture the essence of the beast.

Glad you like it.

Yeah, I guess I'll leave you two alone.

I don't know where you keep poppin' in from, little man,

but I'm startin' to hope nobody ever comes for that thing.

Don't know what anybody'd want with her out here anyways.

Nearest water's gotta be 1,000 miles.

But she was a good deal.

Mighty fine deal.

And a good deal's a good deal.

(DOOR CLOSES)

(MOODY ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

(BALL THUDS)

(BIRD SQUAWKS)

(BIRD SQUAWKS)

SAILBOAT: Out in the quiet,

I thought of some words for Abuela's song.

(JOSE SPEAKS SPANISH)

(JOSE SPEAKS SPANISH)

But even in the quiet--

Meyo! (MEYO SPEAKS SPANISH)

Has Sailboat returned from the boat yet?

SAILBOAT: Papa was still thinking about the stick.

Can you please get him to check the stick, please?

(MEYO SPEAKS SPANISH)

(JOSE SPEAKS SPANISH) Sailboat!

Can you please check the stick, please?

(JOSE SPEAKS SPANISH)

(JOSE SPEAKS SPANISH)

(DOOR CREAKS)

There's a bug. (OMINOUS GUITAR CHORD)

(MOODY ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

It's a wood ant.

(CAR HORN HONKS)

So, you got a problem with the white ants?

Wood ant.

Whites ants.

Wood.

Ant.

Okay.

Can I come in?

(TRUNK RATTLES)

Let's get down to business, I'm gonna show you what I got.

(CHUCKLES)

Here we go.

(LAUGHS)

Now, this guy is our base model.

He was raised on the pallets.

Now, given half a chance, he'll get the job done.

You know, he's all instinct, he's just a little slow.

But if you guys are really serious about this bidness,

(CHUCKLES) (TRUNK RATTLES)

I'd consider this guy right here.

Now, he was raised on the white ants.

He got a taste for that fire! (JOSE SPEAKS SPANISH)

Wood ant.

Oh.

That's right, my bad.

Listen, if you guys are serious about this pest

control problem, then we gotta take it to the top level.

(SIGHS)

Here we go.

(TRUNK RATTLES)

This guy is your man right here.

Now, he's gonna cost you a little bit extra,

but he'll eat anything that moves.

He's a serious guy.

Sailboat.

Fetch the special money.

(MAN CHUCKLES) (UPBEAT ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

I'll write you up a receipt.

(BIRD SQUAWKS)

(CAR STARTS) (BIRD SQUAWKS)

Appreciate the business, y'all take care now. (CHUCKLES)

Sailboat! (BIRD SQUAWKS)

Grab the string.

Tie it up here.

You got it? (BIRD SQUAWKS)

Stand up.

(BIRD SQUAWKS)

(CHUCKLES)

Tell that in your song for Abuela.

(BIRD SQUAWKS)

(WINGS FLAP)

(TENSE ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

SAILBOAT: Mama said not to tell that in Abuela's song.

(CAR HORN HONKS)

(BIRD SQUAWKS)

And Papa stayed at the stick all night.

And even into the middle of the next day.

(GUITAR STRUMS)

(BIRD SQUAWKS) (GUN FIRES)

Until he got a clear shot.

(UPBEAT ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

(HOUSE CREAKS)

I now had some words for my Abuela's song,

and I started to think of some little guitar.

When Mama said--

MEYO: Sailboat, some more papers have come with a record.

PEETI: It's got changing colors.

Hm?

Is there music on that compact disk?

PEETI: Contact disk.

Contact.

Well, you should find out.

PEETI: Contact disk!

(ASCENDING GUITAR NOTES) Contact!

INSTRUCTOR: These notes represent one octave.

Quando. (BRIGHT CHIME)

Now think of a strong emotion.

Hold it.

Now find a note that represents this feeling.

Follow this with notes that compliment this feeling.

This is called music.

Quando. (BRIGHT CHIME)

Now consider these notes we have compiled for you.

Quando. (BRIGHT CHIME)

(MOODY ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

(BALL THUDS) (HOUSE CREAKS)

I do believe that I perceive it just by being...

(HORSE NEIGHS) Jose.

Jose.

Jose?

(HORSE NEIGHS)

Did you finish making your song yet?

No, but maybe manana, then we can take it to Abuela.

Okay. (UPBEAT ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

Have you finished using my compact disk player?

Mm, it was a good help. Contact disk.

Was there any music on the compact disk?

It was mostly a man teaching me some little guitar.

Did you learn it?

I wrote a song for my Abuela, she's sick.

Do you know about songs?

My father prefers the stylings of Ted Nugent

and Suzie Quatro, but my favorite artists would have to be

the Beatles and John Travolta.

Maybe I can play to you my song

and you can tell me about it?

It would be my listening pleasure.

SAILBOAT: My Abuela one day said,

"Things can change."

(SUSTAINED HIGH-PITCHED TONE)

(HIGH-PITCHED GUITAR NOTE)

That was the greatest song I've ever heard.

The notes were, were all my memories.

The melody was far superior to the Beach Boys,

and your words were things nobody knows.

I like that song.

Water boy, very important.

(EXHAUST BACKFIRES)

(DOOR CLOSES) (HOUSE CREAKS)

(BALL THUDS)

Do you think we can go and see Abuela?

The hospital left a message today.

Your Abuela is very sick.

But I finished my song for her.

She's sleeping.

We can go another time soon.

Um, maybe you can practice her song for us to hear now.

We would like to hear your song.

(JOSE SPEAKS SPANISH AND CHUCKLES)

What was it singing? Your song!

(UPBEAT ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC) (LAUGHS)

We were both riding close to the sky, I was on my black

And uh, wait, let me get ya. (GRUNTS AND LAUGHS)

Alright, get in, I'll tell you about the rest of it.

SAILBOAT: I was happy Abuela's song was a happy song.

And when Abuela heard it, she could be happy, too.

Um, can you play me the song again today?

Mm, I'll play you the song.

You can come over.

Papa does not care that you bent the house down.

He's happy with dreams now.

Can you play me the song again today?

Mm, I'll play you the song.

Are you the kid with the dad with the face?

Uh, Jose, right?

Mm. You want me to call him?

Mm. Alright.

Hey, Jose!

(CHUCKLES) You know, I used to play a little guitar.

Like this? (LAUGHS) No.

No, not like that.

So, what do you play, like Freebird or Stairway or, uh--

Yes, sir? Yeah, is this your boy?

Ah, yes, sir.

Would you mind if he goes on the day trip with us?

May I ask where you're goin'?

Tobacco. Tobacco.

a little somethin' to settle these kids down?

(HITCH-PITCHED NOTE)

What have you done, kid?

(JOSE SIGHS)

How was your day trip?

about Abuela's song.

What you doin' with that big ol' bus round here, Alisa?

(UPBEAT ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

Hey, Sailboat, I had another dream.

I was ridin' in the clouds, I was shooting my six-shooter

even higher and higher, but it didn't shoot to six.

It just kept on shooting,

and everybody was there to celebrate.

Was I there? Yeah!

You were playing your song on your little guitar!

Was Peeti there? Yeah.

But I was forced to shoot his ball.

(LAUGHS)

Was Abuela there?

(JOSE SPEAKS SPANISH)

Maybe we can go and tell her about your dream

and I can play her song for her?

Yeah, but I think before we do that,

we've gotta wait till Abuela's a little more rested.

Hey, but you know, when Peeti was there, man,

I shot his ball not once, I shot it twice!

Pah, pah, pah! (LAUGHS)

SAILBOAT: The next day, even some more people

started to know about Abuela's song.

Sailboat wrote a magic song.

Sailboat wrote a song.

the people at school were mostly quiet to me.

And then, after Abuela's song,

they were again quiet to me.

the first quiet would come back.

And even I only ventured out this way on the rumor

of an acquisition, you know what an acquisition is, kid?

you just gotta have, so you acquire it!

Alright, you wait right here and I'll be right back, okay?

Don't touch anything.

Hey, there. Hey.

Heard you this mornin', you were great.

Oh, thanks very much. Yeah.

Well, I don't even know how to say this, um--

Are you okay? No.

No, I'm not, I've just had the most amazing experience.

I can't even explain.

You're just gonna have to trust me on this, you see--

30 seconds.

Look, I'm gonna have to ask you to

relinquish your microphone-- (CHUCKLES) Oh, no.

Why can't this wait for your shift tomorrow?

No, please. But I can't.

I'm about to have the Queen of the South about to walk--

I've got somethin' so special--

No, I have about 10 seconds left, now you get out.

Get out! Whoa.

FEMALE DJ: Have you lost your mind?

(SUSPENSEFUL ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

No, CJ, no!

You've gotta start playin' your age!

There ya go!

No, come on!

(HUSHED CHATTER)

Well?

No.

Excuse me, is the boy gonna play?

It's just, I've been so homesick,

and I heard that he might help.

(JOSE SPEAKS SPANISH) Thank you.

Where's the boy? He's going to play.

Yes! Yes!

I just have to hear it again.

Where's the boy? ♪ Radio HQ ♪

Before the big show, we are lucky enough

to have her right here in the studio.

So, how the heck are you feelin'?

Do you want me to play it? Oh, I feel great, you know.

Yeah.

To those people?

Yeah.

And then, can I go to Abuela?

Bruce, I don't know what Abuela is.

I wished I did.

I wished I could help you.

But I can't.

I'm sorry.

QUEEN OF THE SOUTH: Even just this mornin', I woke with

this feelin', somethin' special was in the air, you know?

JOSE: I don't get it, where could he be?

MAN: It's him, it's him!

SAILBOAT: And then everything,

went to quiet.

(MOODY ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

One day, I found something important.

COACH: Come on!

(WHISTLE BLOWS)

Can you see this?

PEETI: It's unusual!

You can see the ball.

I need you to get that ball.

Do not pass it, you do not stop.

You're not gonna need this.

Sub!

(RAIN SPLASHES)

Go!

You got it!

(VISITORS CHEER)

(WHISTLE BLOWS)

(TRIUMPHANT HORN MELODY)

SPECTATORS: Peeti, Peeti, Peeti, Peeti, Peeti!

(VISITORS CHEER)

(RAIN SPLASHES)

(MACHINE BLEEPS RHYTHMICALLY)

Oh.

Hello.

What are you doing here?

I am here for my Abuela.

(CHUCKLES) You can't be in here, little man.

But she is waiting for me.

Uh, no, she's not waiting for anybody.

She's been in a coma for days.

She's waiting for me to play my song.

Uh, that may be so, but she can't hear you.

Okay, but can you make it quick, please?

(SUSTAINED HIGH-PITCHED TONE)

SAILBOAT: I did get to play Abuela her song.

She did not move.

She did not say any words.

But she was waiting.

(MELANCHOLIC ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

Thank you.

(SOBS)

SAILBOAT: I did never play Abuela's song again.

(UPBEAT ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)

But the lady from the radio place who sings sent us a letter

and now likes to sing the song on the radio.

Sometimes she sends more letters and some money,

and Papa can now buy us things.

Sometimes you get a gift.

Sometimes you give it to someone else.

And sometimes it's not what anyone expected.

Papa talked to the man who drove me to the city,

and gave him some money for my sailboat.

(JOSE SPEAKS SPANISH) No, thank you.

SAILBOAT: Mama got a new gym suit and a new cooker

that can fit more meatballs than we can ever have.

(MEYO SPEAKS SPANISH)

And the stick is now the best wood

that wood ants cannot eat.

Papa got the horse from his dreams,

but it got hit by a bullet coming down.

(GUN FIRES) So, he got another one.

And the man who drove me to the city also did our deal.

Now Papa's car has all the doors.

MALE DJ: You're listenin' to Radio HQ, and like it has

all month, my desk looks like Vegas on a power surge.

Seems like you folks just can't get enough and I gotta say,

if this ain't the greatest song I've ever heard,

you can skin my hide and call me muscles. (CHUCKLES)

So, folks, you've been asking for it round the clock,

so here it is once again,

the Queen of the South's version of,

well, heck, you know what it is.

Take it away.
