Nana, I'll take mine black.

There's a substitute teacher I need to get rid of,

so I need to be on.

Don't give him coffee. He's just a kid.

Caffeine will stunt his growth.

All Latino kids drink it.

My mom's breast milk went straight into my coffee.

Didn't stunt my growth.

It's true. His head is still growing.

[phone buzzing]

Hey, what's up? Aw, man, how you doin'?

It's been a long time, huh?

It's good to hear from you, man.

Yeah, we need to get a beer.

All right, later.

[high-pitched] Bye.

Who was that?

Um, Verizon?

He always uses phone companies

when he's lying.

He used to get a ton of calls

from a hoochie named Pacific Bell.

- It's just, uh, Don Patino. - Ugh.

- Ay. - Ew.

I don't know who that is.

I just wanted to be part of the conversation.

- Who's Don Patino? - One of my oldest friends.

He actually introduced me to Rosie.

Unfortunately, he never stopped

introducing you to women.

I met some men through him too--

Jack Daniels, Johnnie Walker, and Captain Morgan.

Well, he sounds like a Wild Turkey.

[chuckles]

'Cause--[clears throat]

After Don's wife left him, he went crazy,

partying and gambling.

And he dragged my dad with him.

Exactly. He was a good friend.

No, he wasn't.

He tore this family apart and pulled you away from me.

You missed my 14th birthday

because you were with Don on some booze cruise.

We didn't go on a cruise.

We spent all the money on the booze.

All right, Don's not perfect, okay?

But when your mom kicked me out,

he took me in.

We're as close as two guys could be.

We slept nose-to-toes on a futon.

Well, he can keep his toes, his nose,

and his hoes...

as far away from this house as possible.

Ah, but Mayan, he's your godfather.

Ex-godfather. I fired him.

I don't think you can fire an agent of the Lord.

Take my Lord's name out of your mouth.

Don ruined godfathers for me,

which is why Chance never had one.

What's a godfather?

Someone who disappoints you.

Wow, Mommy, you have

a lot of fathers who disappoint you.

Did you ever think maybe the problem is you?

Oh, you go home after drinkin' now?

The bouncer just had a C-section.

I think you could definitely outrun her.

I don't gotta run.

These days, I can afford to buy my own drinks.

Remember when I used to lose money on the ponies?

I'm finally on the other side of that game.

Oh, what, you a bookie now?

Well, I don't owe you any money do I?

I mean, if I do, I'll pay you. I--

when do you leave town?

No. I own a three-year-old thoroughbred.

She's runnin' at Santa Anita. I named her Flyin' Mayan.

You named your racehorse after my daughter?

That's sweet.

I guess Gorgeous George was probably taken, huh?

You know, I miss that kid.

And I never got to meet your grandson.

How old is he now?

He's somewhere between his last diaper

and his first beer.

They so cute at that age.

Mm, mm. I would love to meet him.

Yeah, man, I don't know

if I'm gonna be able to make that happen, you know?

Mayan's not exactly thrilled that you're back in town.

Really?

So she forgave you for cheatin' on her mom.

All I did was take you to the strip club

to take advantage of two-for-one chicken wings.

Tried to tell her that.

She thought we went for the women.

The only thing I had on my lap that night was a napkin.

You know I never had kids of my own.

You guys are the only real family I've ever had.

I know, Don.

I'd like to help you reconnect with Mayan,

but I don't think she'll agree to it.

Maybe we should do a-- a parrot trap.

Do you mean a parent trap,

where you get her and I to come to the same place

- at the same time? - No.

A parrot trap, where you trap a parrot

I had so many good times in this place.

Mom, Dad, I love you,

George Lopez.

Godfather? I don't want no trouble.

Chance, wait!

Kids sense trouble when they see it.

Mayan, wait.

Hey, Rosie.

Thanks for not runnin' away.

And you look great, by the way.

Don't flatter me with things that are obvious.

Well, maybe I can flatter you with this?

You think you can buy my forgiveness

That's--okay.

Wait, you watched "The Godfather"?

- How? - Tío Oscar showed it to me.

And now I get why Mom didn't want

to have a godfather. They're bad.

Especially the ones called "Don."

Tío Oscar should not have shown you that movie.

It is not for kids.

But Mayan's godfather is not like that.

I'm not an expert,

but most mobsters don't wear Birkenstocks.

See, Gordo?

Don is not a don, he's just Don.

Right, Don?

Hey, Chance. It's nice to meet you.

Now, I hear there's some moles in this joint

that need to get whacked.

[screams]

That was a weird way to phrase that, man.

Heard it when I said it.

- Come on, Mayan, talk to me. - Not right now.

I'm pretending these moles are your head.

I just thought once you saw Don

that you'd remember the good times.

No. I remember what he does to you.

The old Dad I couldn't rely on comes back when Don's around.

I mean, he's been here one day and you've already lied to me.

Mom and I want nothing to do with him.

Look what your godfather got me.

I feel like a cartel leader's wife.

Are you really forgiving Don

just because he bought you a coat

that makes you look like Mary J. Blige?

I haven't necessarily forgiven him,

but a fur coat is a good start.

I'm gonna go see what this looks like

in front of the fun mirrors.

See? Don's a good guy, Mayan, and he's missed you.

Guess what he named Flyin' Mayan?

A strain of weed?

No, but side hustle.

He named his racehorse after you.

A horse is supposed to make up

for ripping my family apart?

Yes?

It's a thoroughbred, Mayan. It was thoroughly bred.

But listen, I know you blame Don

for everything that I did wrong,

but I make my own bad decisions.

So if you're be mad at somebody,

be mad at me.

- I am mad at you! - Why? What did I do?

Hi.

I can tell I need to go, and not just because

I'm a grown man without a child.

The last thing I wanted to do was cause your family trouble.

I just wanted to give you this.

What is it?

I know it doesn't fix everything,

but your dad helped me set up a college fund for Chance.

You've built a great life for yourself,

and I hope this makes it a little bit better.

Goodbye, Mayan.

He put $1,000 in this account.
