Esperanza is angry. She asks Miguel if he thinks life is better for him in the United States. Miguel defends their decision to move to California because at least there is a possibility for upward mobility. Esperanza shouts at him, telling him that even in the United States, he is a second-class citizen. Miguel retorts by telling Esperanza to stop thinking about herself the "queen" she had been back in Mexico.
