Tito's Pet

Maya: [about the chupacabra] It flew in the window and tried to grab Paco! But he fought back! Right, Pacquito?

Paco: [squawk] Si! Uh...Paco fight back!

Maya: He even got a piece of its wing! [shows paper cut-out and squeals as audience gasps] Now don't panic. The creature is probably going to fly back to Puerto Rico. But if I were you, I'd go home right now! Just in case!!

I Love Maya
