R O S I E Crowdpleaser. I like Call Me by Blondie. Yeah, agree - Ben would do my chores if I helped with his homework. Probably would pay me now, at this point. I think he's even offered before. Do yours all have a thing?

[benicio otero]

BENI That's a good one. It's hard to beat a good karaoke night. Monica was the showrunner. I liked playing instruments and making people laugh, Diego liked to perform. Adriana's a baby, she could do anything she wanted. That tracks pretty well for everyone now too.

R O S I E It always surprises me who participates. Never who you expect. I guess we're kind of similar. Jonas was always keeping everyone in line, Alina was nurturing but also loved attention. I liked my books and Ben loved his sports. Still all very similar.

[benicio otero]

BENI I wouldn't expect you right away. Maybe three drinks in though. Sounds like in some sibling contest Jonas and Monica should team up, Ben and me, Alina and Diego, and you with Adriana.

R O S I E A good bottle of wine. Funny. Maybe there's character types for 4 children households or something.

[benicio otero]

BENI Ah, noted. Or if birth order really matters. What about sports or things like that, besides piano?

[rosie de la cruz]

R O S I E Not sure, humanities was never really my thing. And not really, growing up. Got into spin classes in college, then eventually fell into pilates when it got more popular and there were more studios. I'd probably want to teach if I had time, but alas. You?

[benicio otero]

BENI I've never done those but I bet you're a pro. I tried yoga once, it's a lot harder than it looks. I played baseball growing up. Bikes, skateboarding, things like that. A lot of church activities. I've been boxing for a little while, that has been fun.

[rosie de la cruz]

R O S I E Pilates is even harder than that - you're usually about one small movement away from faceplanting on the ground. I don't know why but I guessed baseball. Boxing's a good time - I'll honestly take any class just to see. Anything to keep me from turning into a hunchback for all the hours I stare at a computer screen at a desk.

BENI I hear that's the next Disney movie, the Pilates Princess. I was pretty good at it too, my shortstop days. I could see you as a softball or soccer girl. What's the last new class you tried?

[rosie de la cruz]

R O S I E Interesting. They must be wanting kids to go to gymastics. Not a great runner! I did a trampoline class with Nora the other day, way harder than expected but fun. Rock climbing one's on my list.

[benicio otero]

BENI I wonder who her adversary would be. You have strong legs though. And I bet you hit hard. I went to a trampoline park with my niece a little while ago, it was humbling. Nora seems like a good adventure partner.

[rosie de la cruz]

R O S I E A sloth? An overbearing parent? There's many options! Doesn't make me a great runner!! It's not something I physically, particularly enjoy. It's exhausting! But fun, I like the childishness of it. And she's kept me on my toes since college, that's for sure.

[benicio otero]

BENI Maybe a really warm bed that keeps trying to lure her back in. She's nice, I like her. She's been grilling me, she's very protective of you.

[rosie de la cruz]

R O S I E Parents would never get their kids to sleep if you try to villainize a bed. Very Nora of her. She's seen a lot, keeps her people close. Goes on a lot of bad dates though!
