What's really going on
Bruno has spent years as the family's scapegoat, and the vision sequence is where the film says so out loud. He refuses to be a prophet of doom, telling Mirabel, "Sometimes family weirdos just get a bad rap," and later, "You see, you're missing the point." The point is that a vision is not a sentence; it shows a possibility, and the person in it still chooses. That is why the answer is not a fight but an embrace, and why the resolution runs through the sister Mirabel assumes hates her. Bruno's reassurance, "You're exactly what this family needs," flips the film's premise: the girl with no Gift is not the family's flaw but its remedy. He also admits his own fear of Abuela, refusing to come back, which quietly shows the cost of the miracle's pressure on everyone.
