View Quote [Backstage at the Sunrise Spectacular, Ernesto bumps into Imelda and the Riveras.]

View Quote [After Ernesto's crimes are exposed to the Land of the Dead, Ernesto straighten his hair up, unaware that Miguel's family had broadcasted his crimes and turned the audience against him]
Ernesto: Ha, ha! [The audience starts booing at him as he laughs nervously] Please, please, mi familia!
Audience Member #1: Murderer!
Audience Member #2: Get off the stage!
Ernesto: Orchestra! A-1, A-2, A-1... [The conductor breaks his baton in half in contempt, without any words to say; singing] Remember me, though I have to s– [A tomato is thrown at his jacket] Hey! [The audience continues booing as they start throwing food at Ernesto.]
Female Audience Member: [looks up, and points] Look!
[On one of the jumbotrons, Pepita and Dante fly up onto the building's edge with Miguel on Pepita's back. As Miguel slides down Pepita's wing, the other Riveras hug him. The crowd cheers. Ernesto looks shocked because of his crimes being exposed. With a determined scowl, Pepita walks onto the stage, and growls at Ernesto]
Ernesto: [chuckles nervously as he walks backwards while Pepita closes in on him] Here kitty, Nice kitty, Big kitty. [Pepita roars in Ernesto's face, then headbutts him, sending him flying. She then catches him by his waist as she flies off] Put me down! Please! I'm begging you! Stop it, stop that! [A cameraman follows Pepita] Ow, ow! [Pepita flips him into the air, then smacks him away with her tail. The villainous musician goes flying, then notices something up ahead] No! [screams, then smacks face-first into a large church bell, then lands beneath it. Appearing to be unharmed, he looks up and gasps in horror as the bell falls on top of him… again. As the crowd cheers in jubilant, a skeleton sits beside his wife while holding two ears of corn]
Male Audience Member: [to his wife] What did I miss?
[Back with the Riveras]
Miguel: Good boy, Dante.
Imelda: Miguel! [they hug each other]
[Héctor surges and falls to the ground, his life force nearly gone.]
Miguel: Héctor! [runs up to him] The photo… I-I-I lost it!
Héctor: [sitting up] It's okay, mijo. It's... [the surging worsens, spasms more and faints]
Miguel: HÉCTOR! Héctor?!
Héctor: [moans, whispers] Coco...
Miguel: No, we can still find the photo!
Imelda: Miguel, it's almost sunrise!
[The sun begins to rise; Miguel's skeleton transformation has now reached up to his face, Héctor weakly places his hand on his face.]
Miguel: No, no, no. I can't leave you! I promised I put your photo up! I promised you'd see Coco!
Héctor: We're both out of time, mijo. [surges yet again]
Miguel: No! No! She can't forget you!
Héctor: I just wanted her to know... that I loved her. [takes out a marigold petal, surging once more]
Miguel: Héctor!
Héctor: You have our blessing... Miguel.
Imelda: [holds the petal with Héctor] No conditions.
[The petal glows and they contour it toward Miguel]
Miguel: No, Papá Héctor! Please!! [The dead Riveras and Dante mourn sadly] No...! [panting sadly]
Héctor: Go home. [smiles and surges one final time]
Miguel: I promise I won't let Coco forget you! [the petal touches him] AHH!!
[A flash of petals, and the view fades to white; Miguel wakes up in the mausoleum and flees for home with the skull guitar in hand.]

View Quote [After Miguel and Héctor get thrown in the cenote pit...]
Miguel: Héctor?
Héctor: Kid?
Miguel: Oh, Héctor! [They embrace each other.] You were right. I should have gone back to my family.
Héctor: Hey-- hey, hey...
Miguel: They told me not to be like de la Cruz… [cries, drying his eye] But I didn't listen.
Héctor: Hey, it's okay...
Miguel: I told them I didn't care if they remembered me. I didn't care if I was on their stupid ofrenda. [sobs quietly]
Héctor: [hugs Miguel] Hey, chamaco, it's okay. It's okay.
Miguel: I told them I didn't care. [sobs, Hector suddenly spasms, surging with gold light and falls to the ground, weakly.] Héctor! Héctor?
Héctor: She's... forgetting me.
Miguel: Who?
Héctor: My daughter.
Miguel: She's the reason... you wanted to cross the bridge.
Héctor: I just wanted to see her again. I never should've left Santa Cecilia. I wish I could apologize. I wish I could tell her that her papa was trying to come home… that he loved her so much. [long pause] My Coco.
Miguel: [completely surprised] Coco? [shows him the photo of Imelda, young Coco and the unknown man]
Héctor: Whe-Where did you get this?
Miguel: [points to young Coco] That's my Mamá Coco. [points to Imelda] That's my Mamá Imelda. [points to the faceless father] Is that... you?
Héctor: [with realization] We're...
Miguel and Héctor: ...family? [smile at each other]
Héctor: [looks at the photo sadly, with his memory recovered] I always hoped I'd see her again. That she'd miss me. Maybe put up my photo… but it never happened. You know the worst part? Even if I never got to see Coco in the living world, I thought at least one day I'd see her here. Give her the biggest hug. But she's the last person who remembers me. The moment she's gone from the living world...
Miguel: ...you disappear from this one. You'll never get to see her.
Héctor: Ever again. [long pause] You know, I wrote her a song once. We used to sing it every night at the same time, no matter how far apart we were. What I wouldn't give to sing it to her... one... last... time.
