Valentín teaches Maggie to say a little incantation/rhyme over him when he’s knocked out on the job. Fear is a recurring theme (a little boy's fear of threatening wolves is played in flashback throughout; he's also shown at the mercy of a scorpion and being thrown over a cliff, though no one is severely injured during these episodes). Follows a dysfunctional family in Peluche City. But she's gone when he and Maggie get there; instead, in a chance moment of mistaken identity, Valentin is recruited as a movie stuntman.
