Stubborn and independent they now must face the facts: they are old and they have let a family argument stand between them for too long. Don Celestinos good-natured housekeeper encourages him to make amends--while he still can. They secretly liberate Don Fidencio from his nursing home and travel into Mexico to solve the mystery at the heart of their dispute: the family legend of their grandfathers kidnapping.
