How to reinstall pads into my Juicy Five's ?

I am such a noob... today I repaired a flat tire I got, so I had to remove the rear tire. I had a hell of a time trying to get it back in :madman: :eek: and during the struggle I think I accidentally pushed one of the pads out on the rim or something.

Now I am trying to reinstall it. I took the other pad out to see what was going on. I pushed both pistons in as far as I could. There is this little metal spring kind of thing that seems to hold both pads...

I tried sitting both pads in that spring and then pushing it in, but the pads just won't get in there and sit right.

Does anyone have any pointers? Do you know of any videos?

I literally just got my bike today, and got a flat tire within 5 minutes. And now this happens. Really sucks. The tire is all good, just need to get the pads back in
