[First lines of the series; At the Rivera House… Rodolfo returns home after a business trip and finds his son, Manny, and his best friend, Frida Suárez, lounging lazily around in the living room]
Fun is what you make of it. For instance, today I battled giant squid creatures trying to steal the Jeweled Mule of Maya. Fun! The leader escaped with the mule, but I will find him. This I swear!
[Grandpapi appears in the background, revealing he stole the jeweled mule as he enters the house]
You were right. Watching you dad sleep is less boring than TV. Hey, he forgot to take his boots off. [walks up to take the Bronze Boots of Truth off his feet]
[touches the boots and speaks in a hypnotic-like state] Once, after eating ribs, I wiped my hands on a dog. [takes her finger away as she breaks out of the hypnosis] Cool! Dude, we gotta take these babies out for a spin!
[disguised as a sweet old lady] Perhaps I can be of assistance. I just happened to have something that might help you. [steps out of the shadows] Guacamole de los Anglos!
[laughing evilly] I knew the Riveras had to buy that guacamole today. Now they fallen for the totally brilliant trap of… [takes of his old lady disguise] Dr. Chipotle, Jr. [infuriated] THE FILTHY SWINE! I remember when El Tigre and White Pantera captured my father. [flashback to that time; voice-over] He was minding his own business using his jalapeño monster to rob the Miracle City Bank. And they took him! For no reason! That very night, I swore an oath of vengeance. [savagely] I... Don't... Like... YOU!!![back to present] Now, at last, THEY WILL PAY!!!!
Duh. The free stuff we got from that creepy old lady so Manny could use your money to buy the tattoo maker. [realized what she said; disappointed] Dang!
So, you stole money from me and you lied. But, you also risked your life to save us and then told the truth. [thinks for a second] Let's see, what would be an appropriate punishment?
[turns to Manny] Duh! Remember the finger-paint thing? [Flashback to Kindergarten where she is carrying some paint before Zoe purposely trips her, causing her to fly across the room, screaming; two paint cans tip her goggles and one entirely covers her in green paint, and she cries, scaring the other kids away] And the "kick-me" thing? [Another flashback to where she dodges Zoe and she slaps a piece of paper reading, "Kick me", behind her back as she walks into the Karate room, unnoticed, and a riot is heard from the other side; Final flashback shows her tapping on her locker and a bear pops out and attacks her] And the savage bear attack thing?!
[Pan over to Zoe leaning up against a bear cage from the Miracle City Zoo, chuckling deviously; back to the present]
How dare she not invite me to that party I would not be caught dead at! [vengefully] Vendetta! Frida Suárez, I will have my revenge! [sees Manny taking his backpack out of his locker and leaves] And I'll use your best friend to get it. For I, Zoe Aves, am secretly… [transforms into her supervillain identity] Black Cuervo! [then notices a goat right next to her and points out her wrist laser cannon at it] This must remain our secret, goat.
[as Black Cuervo runs past him and Mrs. Chichita after saving her] Hey! Nobody crashes grandmommies in my town, you fiendish… [Black Cuervo stops and stares at him with a glare as the camera zooms in on her face] Girl?
Think again, hero! [opens a slot on her wrist brace with a red button inside and pushes it; sound effect of a bird's cry echoes, Lady Gobbler and Voltura fly into sight, landing on both sides of her; They grab both her hands and fly off; vowing with vengeance] Party while you can, El Tigre! I shall have my revenge on you! VENDETTA!
