Picture	Segment	Description
	COLD OPEN	Cookie Monster recites some Spanish words he's learned, including his favorite - galletas (cookies)!
	SCENE	Chris welcomes the viewer before he and Mando start a basketball game, when Rosita rushes in, asking if any mail deliveries have been made yet. She's expecting a special package today. Suddenly, a pig representative (Eric Jacobson) of Hamazon.com arrives with her package - a book called Hola, Lola!, about a little Mexican girl (just like Rosita). They begin reading it to her and discover it is just like the other Mexican kid books she has - they all have kids stereotypically wearing sombreros and taking siestas next to their burros. Rosita wishes there was a book that was more accurate to her life. Mando felt that way too, but fixed the problem by writing his own. Rosita decides to do the same.
	SCENE cont'd	Mando provides her with some materials. He then gives her the title for her book - Mi Amigita Rosita. Now that she has a title, she needs something to write about. Elmo and Zoe then show up, asking if Rosita would like to dance with them, just like the Ballet Forklorico troupe they saw last week. Rosita joins them in a dance.
	SCENE cont'd	Now, Abby poofs in to return the guitar Rosita left at her house during their sleepover. Abby states she loved the Mexican folk songs she sang to her and asks her to play "Los Pollitos." Rosita returns to her book, still in need of something Mexican to write about.
	SCENE cont'd	Telly and Baby Bear now show up, showing off how they've dressed their dolls like luchadores and ask her to play Lucha Libre (Mexican wrestling) with them. Rosita declines their invitation and continues to struggle with her book. Mando and Chris make her realize everything that's just happened was how she integrates her Mexican heritage into her life on Sesame Street. Inspired, Rosita runs off to write.
	SCENE cont'd	Later, Rosita returns to Chris and Mando shows off her finished book. All her friends gather 'round to hear the final product. Rosita can't read them her story; it's meant to be sung! She pulls out her guitar and sings them her story, listing the Mexican things she does with her friends and how much she loves the life she leads.
	Muppets / Celebrity	Gina Rodriguez recites the alphabet in Spanish for Elmo.
	Muppets	Murray Has a Little Lamb Ovejita leads Murray to a dance school, where they'll be learning the "Flamenco."
