## Summary

The video opens up with Mario preparing to take a photo and adjusting lights, however as he’s adjusting them, the camera takes a picture much to his surprise. It then transitions to him with his license in his office, and then Mía and Teo come in for a hug from him. Afterwards it cuts to him trying to check Blas’s ear with a flashlight, however that doesn’t work out well. Then he brings first aid to Chulo, although Chulo denies it saying it won’t work. Then Mario sprays air freshener on Tufín in an attempt to rid of his smell. Afterwards, a montage begins. He gives Dante tea, he gives Gomi honey, he gives the kangaroo a bag of baguettes, and he gives the chicken an aspirin. After that, the scene of him in his office repeats. He tries checking in Blas’s ear again with a bigger flashlight, although it still doesn’t work out. Then he brings tea to Chulo, although again denies it. Then he tries to scrub Tufín to help him, although Tufín runs off. Afterwards, another montage plays. He gives Rita glasses, he gives Lalo wine, he gives Plín milk, and he gives the dolphins suckers. The scene of him in his office repeats one last time. He then uses one of the camera lights to check Blas’s ear which ends up working out. Then he offers Chulo bananas, which help him out. Lastly, Blas helps him by carrying Tufín on his trunk taking him to a tub of water. The video ends with the animals gathered around and laughing, as a group photo is taken.

## Letra

Yo tengo un tío que se llama Mario

muy divertido y es veterinario

Cura los males de los animales

Tío Mario, veterinario

Tío Mario, veterinario

Tiene un te de tilo (para el cocodrilo)

y un remedio hermoso (para darle al oso)

bolsas de pan duro (para los canguros)

y unas aspirinas (para las gallinas)

Yo tengo un tío que se llama Mario

muy divertido y es veterinario

Cura los males de los animales

Tío Mario, veterinario

Tío Mario, veterinario

Tiene un par de gafas (para las jirafas)

y un poco de vino (para los pingüinos)

y leche caliente (para las serpientes)

y unos chupetines (para los delfines)

Yo tengo un tío que se llama Mario

muy divertido y es veterinario

cura los males de los animales

Tío Mario, (veterinario)

## Errors

* Eyelid glitches
* Rita’s mouth doesn’t have any teeth but that could be because she was intended to be a one time character and her design wasn’t finalized
* The Reino Infantil thumbnail is sort of misleading as it features Lulú even though she doesn’t appear in the song let alone volume 1
* The word “tío” in the Canciones del Zoo title isn’t capitalized
* The Leader Music title isn’t missing the word “Mi”
