[angrily punches her canvas with a hole] Terrible! You call this art?! [throws her painting on the ground and kicks it; sobs] My showcase is tomorrow (night) and I have no work to showcase at the showcase! This is the worst painter's block I've had in years. Oh, I know. I can listen to my favorite podcast. That should help. [later standing upside down while listening]

Now that you've tried the first exercise, how does it feel to see the world from a new perspective? Are the creative juices flowing?
[growls angrily] Now I'm suddenly seeing red! [tosses the paintbrush and it hits the wall, leaving a blue mark, and lands next to Lalo, whose resting; Lalo grabs the brush and suddenly runs next to her, knocking the paint cans over] Uh, no, Lalo. It's not playtime, it's crunch time. [Lalo rolls into the spilled paint and shakes his body, splattering the paint all over the canvas] No! Bad Lalo! You ruined my canvas!
[flies into the apartment, in a scuba suit] Ready for our scuba lesson? [Lalo explains to him, gesturing the painting] You squiggled on paper. Congrats. [Lalo continues explaining] You gotta make ten more? For Frida? What's in it for you? Diddly-squat? Hold up. It's time I teach you about the law of supply and demand. If you're gonna supply, you gotta demand.
[halting her] Not so fast. I'm Lalo's manager. [takes out a fake business card] For every painting my client makes, he's gotta get something out of it too. [roguishly] As does his manager. If you could please sign this contract. [takes out a lengthy contract]
[growls angrily and lets out a scream so loud it can be heard outside the apartment; sighs while preparing for bed later that night] Well, hopefully we can get the rest finished tomorrow. [finds Sergio in the bed and shrieks]
[confused] What? [lifts the covers, revealing Lalo snoring] Lalo?! But this is my bed! Where am I supposed to sleep?! [cut to her sleeping in Lalo's dog bed, angrily twitching her eyes]
[furiously losing her temper] That's it! [rips up the list] The deal's off! I'll find another artist, Lalo! You're not the only dog in town! [storms off]
[finds and mistakes Malo for his twin brother] Lalo! There you are. I've been looking for you everywhere. [Malo growls at her] OK, I know you're still mad at me, but just allow me to explain. [breaks down sobbing] No dog can paint like you! Oh, please, come back and finish my paintings! [hugs Malo] I need you! [Malo snaps at her and runs off; gasps] Ooh, wait for me! [follows him]
[hurries back to Apartment 2B; gasps in horror as Malo breaks down the door] You're not Lalo! [Malo blows raspberry at her and leaves; enters her apartment, shocked to see the mess] And what you've done es muy malo! Now I have no work to show tonight! [breaks down, bawling]

[enters the apartment] Frida, it's showtime! [notices her on the ground; surprised] Ay, mujer! What happened in here?
[confessing] I can't live a lie anymore! I didn't paint the piece you loved yesterday! It was Lalo! [continues sobbing] And I just took credit for it because I had painter's block! I'm so sorry.

Chica, I wish you had told me the truth. Every artist gets stuck sometimes. It's just part of being an artist.
I'm sorry, Bruno. I lied about Bobby breaking his arm. I didn't want to come to work today because I didn't realize how hard your job is. But I'm here now, and I'm gonna help you.
[takes the diagram out of his hand] It's devious, mischievous. [sheds happy tears] I'm so proud of you. And it's a great chance for me to sell your merch. I keep %10 bassoon away.
