Miguel's Love for Music and Green Day Concert

Miguel, a typically honest and music-loving kid, gets excited when he learns that Green Day is having a concert. He talks to his mother about it, but she thinks he's too young. Miguel tries to convince her by telling a little lie that all his friends are going. However, his sister, Meggy, prefers classical music and refuses to go to the concert. Miguel shares his problem with his friend, West, who suggests they tell a small lie and spend the night at his place instead. Miguel asks his mom if he can spend the night at West's house and she agrees because she trusts West's family. Miguel decides to go to the concert instead of spending the night at West's house. He avoids eye contact with his family and appears nervous. Just before leaving, his mother notices Miguel's strange behavior and assumes he's sick.
