MUSIC 1A: BACK TO WORK

(USNAVI and SONNY are out on the street. ABUELA sits on her stoop.)

[USNAVI]
What did I say? Go fix the fridge.

[SONNY]
Hells no, it was blowing fuses, sparking and shit!

[ABUELA CLAUDIA]
Usnavi, send him to D.R. for the summer. Let him work on the farm so his Nikes can get real dirt on them!

[USNAVI]
I ain't wastin' no plane ticket on this kid. I'll be on Playa Rincon with a rum and coke. Sonny can stay here and sell Twinkies.

[SONNY]
Sell? I'll give 'em away for free. I'm the Robin hood of El Barrio
(Exits.)

[NINA]
(Enters, looks around the neighboorhood.)
Hey!

[USNAVI]
Nina Rosario, what is up?!
[NINA]
Jetlag, I haven't slept all night.

[ABUELA CLAUDIA]
It's the watermelon of my heart!

[NINA]
Bendición, Abuela.

[ABUELA CLAUDIA]
Congratulations, your first year at Stanford University!

[NINA]
It felt like ten.

[ABUELA CLAUDIA]
You just missed your parents.

[NINA]
I'm here to see you guys.

[USNAVI]
So, did you kick some college ass?

[NINA]
I got mine handed to me on a silver platter.
[ABUELA CLAUDIA]
Please, you knew the ABC's when you were six months old.

[USNAVI]
You registered half this block to vote!

[ABUELA CLAUDIA]
The future mayor of Nuevayork!

[SONNY]
(Enters.)
I wanna be your campaign manager...,
Yo miss, recognize this face?

[NINA]
Look who's a grown man.

[SONNY]
Check outs the goatee.

[USNAVI]
That's fridge grease.

[SONNY]
Why you so jealous of my skills?
[USNAVI]
Back to work
(SONNY exits. To NINA:)
Stop by later!
(Exits.)

MUSIC 1B: NINA'S THEME

[NINA]
Those recipes you sent were my survival kit.

[ABUELA CLAUDIA]
I had to make sure you remembered the flavor of home
(Gets up.)
Bueno, come inside, I have your sandwichito ready!

[NINA]
I'll be there in a second.

[ABUELA CLAUDIA]
I'll go put the fan on.
(ABUELA CLAUDIA exits into her apartment)
