Alma's Way

Mami whips up some mofongo for the family cookout using an old recipe. But when Alma sneaks a taste, she realizes it's a “no-go” and tries to fix it by herself! Then, the City Seagulls are playing the Sweat Sox. Alma and Eddie enjoy some good-natured pranks before game day. All is well until Alma takes things too far!

Mr. Huda holds a contest to design a mural for his store gate, and Alma's design is the winner! André helps paint the mural but adds his own ideas without asking. Will Alma speak up for herself? Then, Alma must decide if she'll honor her commitment to dance in Uncle Nestor's Bomba show, or watch the Sweat Sox play.

Alma, André and friends can't wait for movie night in the park! But when André finds out the movie stars a spooky blob monster, he suddenly wants to back out! Then, Alma, Eddie and Junior need inspiration for the “hero song” they are writing for Papi, so they join him as he tries to catch a lost parrot named Wanda. Too bad they keep scaring Wanda away. Will this hero's song remain unsung?

Alma really wants to have a sleepover in her room with her dog, Chacho, but when the mischievous pup hides Abuelo's lucky sock on the day of a big baseball game, Alma must find it before Chacho is sent to the doghouse! Then, after Rafia wins the neighborhood spelling bee, Alma is chosen as her alternate for the city-wide competition. Alma learns why being an alternate is important!

Frankie Four Feet is getting rid of a giant cardboard box, and Alma knows just what her friends will do with it: turn it into a clubhouse! Then, it's a hot day in the Bronx, and André and Rafia can't wait to get to the park to split a sweet, icy piragua. When Alma arrives at the park, the piragua is gone, and her friends are angry at each other for allegedly eating it!

Alma, Rafia and André want to perform at open mic night, and with Lucas' sa-weet singing skills, Alma's sure their performance will be a hit! Will Lucas get cold feet before the big night? Then, when Alma sees Safina's picture on the vet clinic's wall, she is determined to win the title of Ultimate Helper of the Week herself!
