Biography[]

Prior to meeting Tom, Diego used to rescue animals in the rainforest with help from his parents, his sister Alicia, and occasionally his best friend Baby Jaguar, whom he had rescued from a waterfall. After rescuing an animal, Diego would either take it to the rescue center to heal, or take it back to its family. Years later, the gang got separated, and it was up to Dora, Diego, and Papi to find them. Tom and his family met Dora and Diego, when they came to their house with Papi to save Abuela from William's brainwashing. They were not happy that they showed up at his property uninvited, so they called Trent to get rid of them. After this, The Connellys and Marquez's were at war, at least until the Connellys temporarily moved in with the Marquez family, and they quickly became friends. Starting at Uncle Funtime 3, they became great friends and hung out together constantly. They frequently joined Tom on his adventures for most of his school career, up until Junior year, when they moved away to a city in mexico.
