Original: Chichipatos
An inept magician pulls off the trick of his life: accidentally disappearing a wanted criminal during a police raid. Now he's going to pay for that.
Juanquini is a terrible magician who embarrasses his kids. But when he pulls off a most amazing trick, no one believes it — including the cops.
Juanquini keeps telling the police he knows nothing, but they keep trying to break him for information. Meanwhile, his family finds him a lawyer.
When a U.S. federal agent shows up to extradite Juanquini, the local authorities — and Juanquini's family — have decisions to make.
While Juanquini tries to get back to his family, they have a sudden run of good luck. Agent Patty Smith consults magicians to explain the vanishing act.
Juanquini suddenly finds himself living with Ñato and his family, including a volcanic wife. Meanwhile, Juanquini's family is struggling again.
Agent Smith and the locals can't seem to break the case, but Ñato's lawyer has concluded Juanquini is telling the truth — and wants to off him.
Have the police and Ñato been looking at the wrong person — at beleaguered Juanquini — when the real magician has been right under their noses?
