- [CHEERING]
Astrodome to that tiny place.
[SUZETTE] Yeah, but Dad
thinks it's good for us
to play these small towns
to stay connected to our fans.
- It's weird going from 67,000 people to 2,000.
- [SELENA CHUCKLES]
It felt like we were
playing at a backyard party.
- Aww!
- I know. Dig out the wedding tuxedos.
- We peaked!
- [LAUGHING]
Sorry, Sel. It's about to get
bigger for you, not smaller.
Aw, I don't know. [GROANS]
- How's the new record coming?
- Sucks. [LAUGHS]
Figured. End of your career?
- Probably.
- [SUZETTE] Mm-hmm.
Oh, well. You could always
live with Bill and me.
- Hmm.
- [LAUGHS]
It is gonna get crazy, huh?
I think it is, yeah.
- Wow.
- [SUZETTE CHUCKLES]
That's why I wanna
get everything in place
and working in the boutiques,
and it's all so much harder
now I don't have Yolanda.
So have you heard from Yolanda,
or did she finally back off?
- Yeah, I'd say no.
- [TELEPHONE RINGING]
- [BEEPS]
- [YOLANDA] Selena, i it's Yolanda.
I don't know if you're
getting my messages.
I've been trying to call you.
[VOICE BREAKS] This whole thing
is a misunderstanding. I'm sorry.
[SMACKS LIPS] Don't even think about it.
Come on. Trade me.
- I still have fries left.
- No.
Oh, wait. I do need help
with something at the studio.
And you'll buy me another burger?
- Deal.
- Okay.
So I wrote these songs
for this new artist,
but I need some demo vocals.
Yeah, sure.
Next week? You'll be
in and out, I promise.
- Yeah, okay.
- Great.
- Oh! But one more thing.
- What? [SIPS]
- [LAUGHING]
- Dude! Come on, Selena, really?
- Yeah.
- That's not even funny anymore!
[CHRIS] So has it been a
while since you've seen her?
[GIRL] Yeah, and I'm so excited.
So, where is she now?
[CHRIS] Probably
finishing getting ready.
- Oh! There she is.
- Oh, my God, hi!
- Hi.
- [GASPS] It's so great to meet you.
- [SELENA] Aww, you too.
- [CHRIS] Meet you? I thought you were
Chris [CHUCKLES]
[WHISPERS] Um, I thought
they were your relatives.
- Oh, no, we just drove in from Dallas.
- [CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]
Can we take a picture?
Yeah, of course. Of course. One
second, let me just [CHUCKLES]
[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]
She just has to dry her hair.
- [DOOR CLOSES]
- [CLEARS THROAT]
[SELENA CLAPS] Okay, let's do it!
- [LAUGHS] Chris, take a photo.
- Oh, yeah.
- Okay, uh, s smile, everybody. On three.
- [LAUGHING]
One, two, three.
- [CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]
- Yay!
- [CHRIS] Okay!
- Awesome! Okay, I'll walk you guys out.
We're really big fans.
Aww, it's so nice to meet you.
Thank you guys so much for coming.
- [GIRL] Bye.
- [CHRIS] Guys, take care.
Drive safe. Thanks
for stopping by, guys.
[SELENA] Bye. Bye. Enjoy Corpus.
Chris!
I I thought they were
your your cousins.
Why would you think
they were my cousins?
'Cause the little one
kind of looked like you.
Did you just say that?
- Yeah, sorry, I
- Okay, you know what I think?
- What?
- It's time to move.
We're gonna move. It's
gonna be great. [EXHALES]
So, this is the land I think we
should buy to build a house on.
[CHRIS] It's beautiful. And
you said it's for sale now?
Mm-hmm. And it has just
enough room for a farm.
[CHUCKLES]
Okay, so where's the house gonna go?
[SELENA] Over there.
- [CHRIS] Right there? Okay.
- Mm-hmm.
- And I think we should have six bedrooms.
- Uh-huh.
For guests and all our kids.
- [CHUCKLES]
- Wait. How many kids are we having again?
Maybe five.
- Five!
- Yeah! [LAUGHS]
That's a whole basketball team.
- Mm-hmm.
- So, with everything going on,
including the crossover tour,
you wanna add babies,
moving,
and building a house?
Yeah. [LAUGHS]
- But I've already thought about it.
- Oh.
And if we get started
on the house right away
and time getting pregnant for when
I'm done with the English record,
before the tour,
then I won't even start to
show until the US leg is over.
Then we could take a break.
Have the baby. The house will be done.
Then we can do Europe
together as a family.
I think that's a great idea,
but a lot of things are
gonna have to work out
in order for that to happen.
Yeah, but they always do, don't they?
Yeah, they do. They always do.
Look, I know it's a lot
but family's always been the
most important thing to me.
So how could more of
a good thing be bad?
It couldn't.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
Ah, this is so nice. We hardly
ever get to do this anymore.
[CHUCKLES] You and I do. That's
why I'm your favorite now.
- [CHUCKLES] You're both my favorite.
- Aww! It's still me, though, right?
[LAUGHING]
So, come on. You had
some big thing to tell us.
Aww, don't you wanna
wait for the breadsticks?
Tell us!
[SELENA] Well, it's not a big thing.
It's more like a little,
tiny, tiny, little thing.
[MARCELLA] What is she saying?
I don't know, but I'm about
to go across this table at her.
Honestly, sis, you're gonna have to have
a lot more patience if you're gonna
- help me take care of my baby!
- [BOTH GASP]
- [SELENA CHUCKLES]
- Wait, Selena, you're pregnant?
No, no, no, no, but
I made an appointment
to take out my Norplant thing.
[LAUGHING]
[SUZETTE] You gonna tell Chris?
What? Yeah What is wrong with you?
Of course I'm telling Chris. [LAUGHS]
- So you're gonna start trying?
- Yes.
- [SUZETTE] Aww.
- [CHUCKLES]
- Yes! More grandkids.
- [SELENA LAUGHS]
Yeah.
[SUZETTE] You ready to get fat?
- Stop! Stop.
- [LAUGHING]
Mom
I don't know anything
about being a mother,
so you're gonna have to teach me.
Whatever you need.
But you're gonna be a fantastic mom.
- [SELENA LAUGHS] Aww.
- [MARCELLA CHUCKLES, KISSES]
[SUZETTE EXHALES]
[MARCELLA SIGHS]
If I could bottle your love and
just be half the mom you are,
that'd be pretty great.
[CHUCKLES]
[GASPS] Great.
- Now she's the favorite again.
- [LAUGHING]
[SUZETTE] Selena!
I was thinking about the show in Bryan.
Aww, it was so fun, huh? [LAUGHS]
Yeah, especially 'cause I
didn't get to play the Astrodome.
Yeah.
But when I saw Carlos
up there, I thought
- "That's right."
- What do you mean?
I mean instead of me.
I think after these next couple
of shows on the tour, that's it.
- Suzy, no.
- Yes, Sel.
I can't keep up with
the kind of drumming
you're gonna need for
the crossover tour anyway,
and it's the perfect time for me to
spend more time at home with Bill.
Don't you want me to have my own baby?
You're gonna leave
me all alone up there?
Hardly.
I'll still be there,
making sure every single
one treats you right.
[LAUGHS] You mean
bossing everyone around?
[LAUGHING]
[SUZETTE SIGHS]
So you feel it too?
What, honey?
Everything changing.
[MAN] You're listening to Radio
Tejano. Up next, we've got Selena.
- [GASPS]
- No! Turn it off!
- No, I wanna hear what song. [SCREAMS]
- ["LA CARCACHA" PLAYING]
¡Dos! ♪
- ¡Tres! ♪
- Suzy, what are you doing?
Cuatro ♪
What are you doing?
- It's you on stage. [LAUGHING]
- No!
No, it's not! Shut up!
Oh, yes, it is. I've
been staring at your butt
up there for a lot of years.
[BOTH LAUGH AND SING IN SPANISH]
When are you gonna tell
Dad about having a baby?
Ooh. I'll probably save that for
when he's in bad mood. [LAUGHS]
Use it to get him out of it.
- You'll have plenty of chances. [LAUGHS]
- Yep.
[SUZETTE] All right, sis.
- Oh! Meant to give this to you earlier.
- What?
- It's for your collection.
- Suzy!
- Aww, Suzy, I love it!
- [LAUGHS]
Thank you.
- I love you.
- I love you, sis.
[LAUGHING]
- [SUZETTE LAUGHS] Bye, Dad.
- [ABRAHAM] Drive safe.
- Selena.
- [SELENA] Yeah.
Don't forget AB needs
you in the recording
studio tomorrow morning for demos.
Okay. What time?
- Ten-thirty.
- Okay.
Ten-thirty Texas time, not Selena time.
Okay! Dad!
Stop! Dad!

[ENGINE TURNS OVER]

[BUTTONS CLICKING]
- Hey. What's all this?
- Hey.
Boutique stuff.
I think Yolanda still has documents
and statements that I need for taxes.
Well, we still have, like,
two weeks until taxes are due.
- Why don't you come to bed?
- Yeah, I will. Just one minute.
Okay.
- I'll see you in there.
- Okay.
[HUFFS]
[TELEPHONE RINGING]
[BEEPS]
[YOLANDA] Selena, look,
I know it's late, but
it's really important
that I talk to you.
Something bad happened.
- You're the only one
- Yolanda.
Selena! Oh, thank you for picking up.
The records for the
boutique are incomplete.
I thought you gave me everything.
- Uh, I have them. See, I'm in town
- What about my perfume samples?
I spoke to Leonard Wong. He
said you still have those.
I have all that, and I
can give it to you now.
- I'm at the Days Inn.
- Now? Yolanda, it's 1:30 in the morning.
I'm sorry, Selena.
[GASPS] Something
terrible happened to me,
and you're the only one who can help.
[YOLANDA SOBBING]
- Selena?
- [SELENA SIGHS]
- Who was on the phone?
- Yolanda.
- [GROANS] What did she want?
- She said she was attacked by two men.
Oh, God. Is she okay?
I think so.
You don't think she's lying, do you?
I don't know. I don't think
that's something you lie about.
Yeah, of course.
I'm gonna take her to the
hospital in the morning.
I'm gonna get my records,
and that'll be that.
- Do you want me to go with you?
- No, it's okay.
Let's get some sleep.

no evidence of trauma on her body.
I'm sorry. I don't

Selena.
Selena, stop! Selena!

Yolanda, enough!
How could you lie about this?
- How?
- The doctors
No! How can I trust you
after what they said to me?
- [HESITATES] Like, there's no

I've had enough of this. Get in.
I did not lie. I'm
telling you the truth.
[SELENA] Get in.
Please. Now, you gotta believe
me. Let me explain to you.
- Yolanda, stop. I'm done.
- You're letting them convince
I want my things. That's it.

She's on Selena time.

I'm sorry.
[SOBS] I'm sorry.
- You're my friend, and I let you down.
- Yolanda, stop.
- [SOBS]
- I don't even wanna hear it.
I need my bank statements. I
need my records. Do you have them?
- Yes!
- My perfume samples, everything.
- Yes, all of it.
- Do you, or are you lying again?
[INHALES] I have them in my room.
Let's go. Now.

Thank you.
It wasn't on the floor two seconds.
Yeah, that's long enough.
You wouldn't have lasted
even that long in the army.
You know, Dad, you talk about the army
like as if you spent it
in a Vietnamese prison.
- You were in Tacoma.
- Hey, Tacoma was rough back then.
[LAUGHS]
This tastes old.
New managers.
Things have gone down since
I worked in a place like this.
Yeah, I liked it before.
- You always like everything before.
- I don't like change. [CHUCKLES]

[BELL RINGS]
Getting a job and making your
way in the world can be hard,
but without a degree,
it's so much harder.
That's why school is so important, guys.
My sister Selena believed in education.
It was the biggest
moment of her whole life.
And it's true.
I remember, she, um,
she made a graduation
cap out of a record album.
Doesn't matter. [SOBS]
It's hard to explain.
But I was here when she said that.
And you know what?
She inspired me
to go back to school and get my GED.
And I might look young,
but I am not a teenager.
[LAUGHS]
So if I can finish high school,
then you can too.
The more you know about the world,
the more you can find your place in it.
Like my sister used to say
always believe the
impossible is always possible.

[SELENA CHUCKLES]
[MAN] When you're gone, how
do you wanna be remembered?
Oh, what a
[CHUCKLES] What a funny question!
As
As not just an entertainer
but as a person who
cared a lot. [LAUGHS]
Somebody who wanted to be a role model.
You know, a woman who
wanted to be the best daughter,
the best sister, the best
friend, the best wife.
Yeah, I just wanna be remembered as
somebody who just gave it her all.
[CHUCKLES]
Today is Selena Day, as declared
by Governor George W. Bush.
