Take Carmen Vega downtown and book her! Carmen is guilty as charged of slipping into daughter Yolanda’s and son-in-law Rico’s home to leave behind “How to” and “When to” books on baby-making, of manipulating youngest daughter Ally into a doomed relationship with best friend Marisol’s son Pablo (“the lawyer”), and of getting Ally’s real boyfriend pulled off an important account. She is generally guilty of getting into every other family member’s social life, except her own. Now Carmen Vega, notorious mother of good intentions, but with equally hideous results, is about to get a crash course in butting out!
Just as her family believes Carmen’s making progress, she finds out that she is going to be a grandmother – finally! Yolanda and Ally can only shake their heads when they hear Carmen has already purchased furniture for the nursery and picked out names. Will Carmen ever learn her lesson? Cuando las ranas críen pelo!
