"Summer of Booyah Buh Bisabuela" is the first segment of the twenty-seventh episode of Primos.
Synopsis[]
Tater discovers her great-grandmother’s diary.
Plot[]
While digging through some old things, Buela is approached by Tater who asks for ice cream from her secret stash after the primos ate all the rest. Buela attempts to send Tater away until she finds an old picture of her mother, and Tater's great grandmother, Patricia. After Tater initially confuses it as a photo of herself, as she does bare a strong resemblance to her, Tater learns the truth. She also learns that, just like her, she had a lot of primos and kept a diary that recorded her thoughts. Tater hopes to use it as a "cheat code" for her final form, but it's entirely in Spanish. Buela cannot translate it and urges her to get the primos to help, though Tater instead sneaks away with it.
Tater attempts to "decode" the diary, but her Spanish beginner's book only manages to help translate "This is the diary of Pati". Tater drifts off to sleep and finds herself in the home of young Patricia who is able to speak English and communicate clearly with Tater. Patricia shows off her likes and interests, revealing that she does indeed share Tater's penchant for creativity and that her main hobby is cross stitching, which Tater learns that she will eventually become proficient in. Later, Patricia is visited by three of her primos, who look an awful lot like Lita, Scooter, and Lucita, surprising Tater.
Patricia reveals that her main wish is that all of her primos lived under one roof as she ends up being alone most of the time. Before Tater can continue with her, she wakes up. Now knowing that in order to get onto the right path, she needs to rely on her family of primos to help her out and calls for a family meeting. Tater shows everyone the photo of Patricia (debunking LotLot and Gordita's theories of being a vampire or time traveler) as well as the diary. The primos begin to read the diary together, learning about Patricia and her life, while Buela happily watches. Tater decides to follow suit with her diary, but first she must remove the naughty parts.
