== Plot ==
The episode starts with Team Pahkitew packing up for their Mexican Zone trip in Pahkitew Land. After everyone is packed, Sugar is revealed to have packed a few more things than her teammates, as her backpack is slightly larger. Being asked by Dave what extras has she packed, Sugar responds by saying that she packed six candy bags and a dozen cartons of chocolate milk, much to the dismay of her team. The team heads to the portal door, say the rhyme "I wish, I wish, with all my heart to play with friends in a land apart!" and go through the door, transporting to Pahkitew Land.
After entering Pahkitew Land, Team Pahkitew finds themselves on the side of the road to the Mexican Zone of Pahkitew Land and notice how hot it is today. The team then sees a bus coming and call out to it. Hoagie, who is on the bus with the other Pahkitew Land friends, spots Team Pahkitew and tells the bus to stop at where Team Pahkitew is, which the bus does. Nigel scoops up Team Pahkitew in his wings and puts them in the bus.
As the bus starts driving again, Shawn, Sky and Dave hug their respective best friends and Sammy asked Nigel why is everyone riding on the bus. Nigel responds to this by saying that the gang is going to visit his friend Quetzal the Pidgeotto and his older brother Fernando the Pidgeot. Dave starts to wonder if Quetzal and Fernando actually live in the Mexican Zone and Nigel assures him that Quetzal and Fernando do live there. Amy remarks how Pahkitew Land busses are too dumb to notice the heat, which causes the bus taking them to the Mexican Zone to stop in its tracks, insulted. She then regrets her comment and apologizes to the bus, making it honk its horn to show it forgives her.
Abigail and Jane notice a taco stand nearby, which the bus then rushes towards. The taco stand, in question, belongs to Fernando and Quetzal, who work there every weekday. The bus reaches the taco stand, creating a cloud of dust as it stops. Quetzal, wondering whether they came to buy something or make a mess, is thrilled to see Nigel again and asks the gang for their order. After Quetzal lists each item, Nigel responds by saying yes three times, adding that he is also thrilled to see Quetzal.
El Titan responds by attacking everyone with his Titanic Pack. Panicking, Quetzal goes back in his shop and tells Fernando about the trouble. With the Titanic Pack fast approaching, Abigail, Jane and the girls hop in the bathtub part of the bus they were riding in, while Nigel, Hoagie and the others hop into the sombrero part of the vehicle after Mouser pulls on a cactus, splitting it into segments that fly towards them. Some titans on ostriches, with some popping out of a hole in the ground, also rush towards them. Surrounded, Team Pahkitew and their friends wonder what to do next.
Out of nowhere comes Fernando, leaving a look of panic on El Titan's face as Quetzal starts singing the song "La Bamba!". Using a whip, he loops it on a cactus and uses it as a swing, knocking a row of titans down. He then uses his whip to tangle two other titans up and launch them towards a cactus. After Fernando is noticed by the gang, Mouser charges towards him and begins a sword fight, while Nigel and Hoagie fend off a group of titans with Sammy riding on Nigel's back and Jasmine riding on Hoagie's back. Mouser chops a large chunk of a cactus near him and kicks it off. Fernando chops up a cactus near him. While Mouser laughs at Fernando, Fernando blows on the cactus and shows that he chopped it in pieces. Irritated, Mouser continues their battle, but Fernando knocks Mouser's sword out of his hand and marks a zero on his chest, frustrating him even further.
After Quetzal finishes singing, El Titan grabs a small cactus of his own, tossing it at Fernando, who was putting his sword back. The small cactus pins his cape to a bigger cactus, leaving him stuck. El Titan then orders the Titanic Pack to take Fernando away with them. With El Titan escaping, Abigail wonders where they went off to, while Topher comments on how they did not get a taco, getting an iron tail smack from Abigail.
Sometime later, El Titan has subsequently enslaved the citizens of the shady village, forcing the townspeople to give him their vegetables as well as stealing all the gold from the villagers as well. The gang and Quetzal decide that it is up to them to find Fernando.
After a talk with the mayor and asking the citizens if they know where El Titan is hiding, they panic and run away at the sound of his name. The mayor explains to the team that the citizens want to help, but they are too afraid to stand up to El Titan. Just then, El Titan shows up as a surprise attack on the village. Nigel tells him that they are not afraid, and the townspeople will help, only to remember that they ran away. The Titanic Pack again attacks them, and the gang tosses nearby vegetables at them, knocking them off their ostriches. However, only a few are knocked off, and the rest surround them just as they run out of vegetables. Two titans then apprehend Jane as he summons the chariot to escape. Shawn, somewhat sympathetic for his best friend, finds and tosses some tortillas at them, knocking El Titan off his ostrich, and knocking out the titans surrounding Jane, who then joins the others in tossing tortillas.
After enough tossing, El Titan retreats. Nigel jokes that Mexican food does not agree with El Titan, as it was used negatively on him, and eats a tortilla. Later, the mayor apologizes and repeats his explanation on why the townspeople would not help. That somehow gives Shawn an idea, but it involves Jane and her hilarious superhero alter-ego, Zero Croc, much to her embarrassment as her friends make jokes about her superhero alter-ego and even Abigail laughs. El Titan later tells the Titanic Pack that they will be able to take over the town. El Titan then plots revenge on the town for driving him out, and commands a nearby titan to literally pull out a street signal and toss it over to Mouser, who then declares that as the "signal" (the light on the signal is even green to symbolize "go"). El Titan again orders the Titanic Pack to attack and the villains storm the town.
Just then, Shawn and Jane (as Zero Croc) arrive and announce that Fernando has arrived with his sidekick, Zero Croc. El Titan is, obviously, shocked at the sight of Fernando's return while the mayor and the villagers are overjoyed. Shawn launches a cart of vegetables at the titans, then marks zeros on their chests. Jane marks a Koopa with a "0" and a Krokorok eye. The mayor hoists a flag and leads the villagers in throwing vegetables at the Koopas. In a panic, Mouser tells El Titan to retreat to his secret hideout, unintentionally revealing where it is hidden, unaware that an incognito Shawn is lingering in the shade eavesdropping onto their whereabouts. El Titan angrily grabs his hat and begins to hit Mouser with it as they are all driven out of town. The mayor and villagers celebrate by throwing their sombreros in the air. Shawn, Jane, Abigail, the gang and Quetzal then go to El Titan's secret fortress, thanks to a dim-witted Mouser. When they arrive at night, Shawn and Jane glide to the fortress using their capes from a nearby spire, as they are high up on a rocky wall surrounding it.
The two best friends are then quickly caught by the spotlights and are caught in a battle with a titan army, which proves no match for the duo as they quickly defeat them. After defeating El Titan and Mouser once and for all, Shawn and Jane free Fernando from his prison. Later, back at the taco stand, Abigail announces that with Fernando free, the Mexican Zone people would not have to live in fear any longer. Quetzal arrives and asks if they are ready to order, with Fernando accidentally leaving his mask on to reveal that he is a part-time hero, much to everyone's surprise. Quetzal tells the gang that in exchange for coming to visit once in a while, they would get taco salads. Abigail assures Quetzal that the gang will come visit the brothers real soon and she starts stuffing her face with the salad, which causes everyone to laugh. Team Pahkitew brings out the portal orb, say the rhyme "I wish, I wish, to use this rhyme to go back home until next time!" and return to the headquarters.
Once back to headquarters, Team Pahkitew unpacks their backpacks and Sugar starts eating the candy bags and drinks the chocolate milk left in her backpack, making everyone laugh as the episode ends.
