Appearances[]
Coco[]
When Miguel Rivera wants to enter a music contest to meet Ernesto de la Cruz, Héctor takes Miguel to his friend Chicharrón to get a guitar to play with.
When Héctor asks for Chicharrón for his guitar, Chicharrón demands Héctor to sing Chicharrón's favorite song, "Everyone Knows Juanita", in exchange for the guitar. While Héctor finishes the drink he shared with Chicharrón to honor him, Miguel is astonished by Chicharrón's disappearance, but he agrees to use Chicharrón's guitar in the contest.
When Héctor and Miguel arrived at the contest, Miguel wants to sing "Remember Me" with the guitar but Héctor doesn't want him to sing it so instead, Miguel sings the musical number "Un Poco Loco" on stage along with Héctor.
After the contest, however, Miguel ditches Héctor to look for Ernesto on his own. Taking the guitar with him, Miguel tries to get to Ernesto's Mansion. After the security guard by the tram refuses to let him in, the band Los Chachalacos, who became the winners of the contest, arrive and help sneak Miguel into the party without getting noticed by the guard. Once inside the mansion, Miguel gets his idol's attention by playing the guitar and singing a song; however, Miguel slips and falls in the pool. Ernesto saves Miguel from the pool, but he doesn't pick up the guitar and leaves it there.
