A simple plot frames the story: the family goes on an outing to attend a family party, the fiesta of the title.

Yunior is no innocent, and he is aware of his father's philandering. Yunior's knowledge is revealed in small flashback vignettes that interrupt the party scenes.

As he thinks he comes to the shocking conclusion that he truly wasn’t. Guy described his previous thoughts of happiness as if “He wore his happiness like a mask and the girl had run off across the lawn with the mask and there was no way of going to knock on her door and ask for it back. “ Guy begins approaching his bedroom where he could hear his wife’s music blaring through her seashells (Earbuds).

Cherry is smart and dreamy like Ponyboy, and they have a good conversation.
