After overcoming a chain lock obstructing their way, Sal and Gabi enter Sal’s home. To their surprise, the living room is now a vast computer setup. The individuals working on it pause—among them is one of Gabi’s many dads, a scientist named Bonita, who calls the computer the “remembranation” machine.
To ease the tension, Papi takes charge of making sundaes for everyone. Seeking to ease his fears, Sal asks whether his abilities threaten the universe. In a heartfelt conversation, Papi confesses that he misses Floramaria just as much as Sal does and emphasizes that his move to Miami was motivated by a desire to help his son. Papi enlightens Sal about calamitrons being evidence of a damaged membrane between universes. Despite Sal’s fear, Papi encourages him, highlighting Sal’s capacity to mend the universe. Together, they commit to understanding how Sal can restore the calamitrons to their rightful place.
As they serve the ice cream, Sal notices that Bonita refrains from eating. Curious, he questions her, and to his astonishment, she reveals she is a robot. Initially dismissing it as a joke, Sal engages in a playful debate about Bonita’s robotic status. Their banter stops abruptly when Bonita receives an urgent call, informing Gabi that they must leave immediately.
