[The Louds arrive in Great Lakes City as their final destination of their summer road trip so Rita can write her deadline for her column in the Gazette, but doesn't want the family to interact with the Casagrandes]
Okay, kids, listen up. This is the last stop of our summer road trip and we like to enjoy the other day getting packed. [goes over her notepad] Lunch at Goddess Greens, Great Lakes City Tower, and a concert series in the park.
LLincoln
Sweet! When do we need to see the Casagrandes? I can't wait for myself to tell Ronnie Anne about our favorite trips.
[answers her phone as it starts to ring; excitedly] Hey, Boo-Boo Bear! Guess where I am?
[swipes Lori's phone out of her hand] Literally Mount Rushmore! [imitates signal breaking] Losing reception, babe! Call you later!
Um… We do love to visit the Casagrandes. But my last travel piece for the Gazette is due tonight, and we need to hit all of these places. There's just no time to stop by.
Yeah, if we want to get everything on your Mom's list done, they can't remember we're here. We'll just visit them another time, okay, kiddos?
I guess so. Plus, I don't wanna miss that concert.
And I want a glamor shot from the top of the GLC Tower, looking down at all of the other little people.
[unsure] I don't know, you folks. I feel weird about this.
[As the Louds head back to Camperzilla after escaping the park, they see Carlota approaching them on one side while on her phone, and Ronnie Anne approaching them on the opposite while riding her skateboard, and run across the street]
[The family quickly enter a building and all sigh in relief]
[seeing what the building looks like as the family have been here before] Why does this place look familiar?
[They turn to look outside and see that they entered the Casagrandes apartment building]
Uh, 'cause this is literally the Casagrandes building!
LLynn
[groans annoyingly and pushes Lincoln] Great move, Stinkoln! Worth a rebellion to beeft!
LLincoln
But what about your article?
Some things are important, Lincoln. [Later that evening, inside Apartment 2A; explains to the Casagrandes about why they did what they had to do, when they hurt their feelings] So the whole point of not telling you was to spare your feelings, but clearly by sneaking around, we've just tried to hurt you more.
Yes, you have. You could feel honest with us, we might remember if we was born.
[tearing up] We tried to mess up.
Can you folks ever forgive we?
[The Casagrandes look at themselves and smile after a smooth forgiving]
Mmm… I'll just think about it. I need time to heal. [Rosa glares at him] I'm healed.
Rita, go finish your article, I don't want you to miss your deadline. But after that, maybe you can stay for dinner.
We do love to. [she and Rosa hug and rushes off to get her laptop from Camperzilla; later typing her deadline on the roof, voice-over] "As our summer adventure comes to an end in Great Lakes City, I'm reminded that it's not always what you do that makes a true trip, it's the people you spend another time with."
LLincoln
Way to go, Clyde! [he and Gran Gran walk in] Congratulations, guys! Your dance moves are amazing!
Thanks, buddy. We call that last one, The McBride Slide.
[he and Nana Gayle demonstrate the dance move]
Sorry, I'm in a bit of a rush. Just got an email from Astrid's book club. She's on tour with a new advice book, "Are You There, Cod? It's Me Astrid." [shows Lincoln and his friends a photo of Astrid's book]
Oh. I thought we were done with the Astrid Method.
I thought so too. But why would she write another book if her methods don't work? I'm gonna meet her and find out what's going on.
[shocked] You're meeting with Astrid?!
Of course! Her first stop is Hazeltucky, today. [dashes off] And I'm late.
Oh, this is so not good. If Principal Ramirez and Astrid meet, we're more busted than Rusty's hair!
LLincoln
We have to make sure they don't meet.
[Outside the Bookstore, Principal Ramirez is having a stern word with the Action News Team]
We're sorry, Principal Ramirez. We shouldn't have deceived you.
LLincoln
It's just that the Astrid Method was making us miserable.
Eating all that fish was cramping my style with the ladies.
[sighs] Look, it's my job to make sure you're set up to succeed, and the Astrid Method guarantees that'll happen. So, we'll resume the program on Monday.
LLincoln
[as his friends groan in disappointment] Dang it.
AAstrid
Nej, wait. Principal Ramirez, studies have shown that student happiness is crucial for success. If these children aren't happy, than that means the program isn't working. I'm going to have to rethink it. [to the Action News Team] Thank you for your honest feedback.
LLincoln
[screaming; then to the viewers] You may be wondering why I'm screaming, and no, it's not because I just found out Lana's been hiding her booger stash in my room. [flips his mattress to reveal Lana's booger stash on the underside and gags in disgust]
[from outside] It's not a stash! It's an exhibit celebrating all things nasal! You should be honored!
LLincoln
Lana, stop listening at my door! [sighs; to the viewers] Anyway, I was practicing my ride scream. Today's the annual Udder Madness Day at Dairyland. Clyde and I never miss it. [takes out a map of Dairyland] If you can go on the ten most stomach-curdling rides before the park closes, you win an awesome prize. And this year's prize is gonna be legen-dairy.
[laughs] Good one, Lincoln!
LLincoln
Okay, if there's anybody else at my door, please step away! As I was saying, check out this year's prize. [takes out a picture of a Tippy hat] This moo-tiful Tippy hat. It's gonna look so good with the rest of my Udder Madness collection.
[wearing a wrestling outfit with spikes everywhere; weakly] Too spiky. [now wearing a fairy costume] Not gonna happen. [now dressed as a clown] No way. [now wearing Lincoln's own clothes] Who wears this here? [gets back in her own usual clothes] Look, folks, this isn't working. None of those feel, I don't know, authentic.
Hmm. Maybe we need to dig a little deeper. Like, my fave wrestler, Pixie Cuts, used to be an actual hairstylist. Her favorite character feels supes authentic.
LLincoln
Yeah. What's Lynn Loud really passionate about?
[laughs] You need to get up so early in the morning to fool ole Flip. Nacho here overheard you dunderheads talking in the parking lot and clued me in. So while you think you were going to feel so busy tearing yourselves apart, everyone knows I moved all of the merchandise out this morning. Call it a "restocking day." Oh, there's one thing left.
[gasps and sees a dusty bag of Flipeos] Flipeos? That's it?! [blows the dust off, getting some of it on Flip's face]
Be careful eating 'em. [Chandler opens the bag and a stink cloud emerges, making his hair all fuzzy] They're older than you are.
[throws the bag on the ground; enraged] This is so unfair! I'm the one who cheats people! You stink, Flip, and that's coming from someone whose dad works in the sewer! [storms out of the store]
[picks up the Flipeo bag and eats one] Eh, it's not bad.
[Lincoln and Clyde wince as Chandler angrily leaves the store, slamming the door shut]
LLincoln
Well, we may not lose if we lose, but we did see Chandler lose earlier.
Small comfort in a cruel world.
[Lincoln sighs as he and Clyde head for the door]
[blocking their way, halting them] And where do you two bozos think you're going? I suppose I may say thank you. While you are trying to get to one-million, you actually gave me the best day of business I ever had. And that includes the time the supermarket down the street flooded. [whispers to the other boys] Suspiciously. [winks] I think that deserves a reward.
[Luan is holding a graduation ceremony for her pranking academy in the backyard where Lincoln and Benny are applauding for Ronnie Anne]
LLincoln
[to the viewers] That's right. Ronnie Anne is about to get her pranking PHD, which is cool, but I'm just excited my buddy's in town, and we get to hang out. Plus, Dad made the appetizers, like mac 'n' cheese bites. [brings in a cart of appetizers and eats a mac 'n' cheese bite, then ends up spitting it out] Which of course, Luan filled with octopus ink. Real nice.
Benny, you may be stalled at level one whoopee cushion, but someday, if you work hard, you'll graduate too.
Aw, thanks, Luan. Until then, I'll just keep pouring my savings into this class.
Ronnie Anne, please accept this diploma.
[Mr. Coconuts gives Ronnie Anne her diploma as Benny applauds while shedding tears]
LLincoln
Woo-hoo! Yeah, Ronnie Anne!
[throwing her graduation cap in the air] I'd like to thank my brother, Bobby, for being the main target of my homework assignment. [suddenly notices that the printing on her diploma is starting to fade] Uh, what's happening?!
Ha, ha! Disappearing ink! You haven't graduated yet. There is a final test you must complete, and this test is the hardest. [laughs evilly]
I did not see this coming! [eats a piece of chocolate cake, which then burns him as he screams] AH! Or that ghost pepper! Classic Luan.
Ronnie Anne, you must prank the master: me. And it must be done before sundown, so tick-tock. Remember your mantra: Work with what you've got. [throws a fart bomb and disappears as Ronnie Anne coughs]
LRLincoln & Ronnie Anne
[shocked after Benny removes his Luan costume] Benny?!
Sorry, guys. Luan promise me half-off to wishing if I helped her. That class isn't cheap.
LLincoln
Your Luan was incredible.
Thanks. [impersonating Luan's voice] Voice mimicry is the only "A" I've gotten.
[groans] So where's Luan, now?!
[They see Luan in the distance, laughing evilly, and she then bikes away]
LLincoln
That was unnerving.
We can't let her get away, or we'll never prank her in time! There's only 23 minutes until sunset!
Learning to tell time by the sun is also part of--
LLincoln
Of the class. I get it.
[dashes into Lincoln's room; frantically] Lincoln!
LLincoln
[yelps and fires a net out of his net cannon in midair and it lands on him] Dang it.
LLincoln
Lily, it's okay. Calm down. I'm sure whatever it is isn't that bad.
[grabs her brother by the face] I trade Eunice to Ingrid!
LLincoln
Well, it was nice knowing ya.
It was accident! They go to grocery store! Please help me get her back!
[worried] I'm toast, and not the yummy cinnamon kind.
LLincoln
No, you're not, Lily. I've got a plan. There's an issue of David Steele where he assembles a team to break into Golden Toe's lair to take his, you know, golden toe.
[confused] We're gonna take Ingrid's toe?
LLincoln
No. We'll do our own heist and get back Eunice before Lola ever knows she was missing.
LLincoln
We just need a map of Ingrid's house.
Hmm. Perhaps I can assist. I, too, would like to protect our youngest kin from Lola's ire. Besides, I need Lily in one piece to complete the rest of our human nightlight test trial. I have a way we could get a full scan of Ingrid's house and the location of your desired target. I'll just have to initiate Todd's new pizza oven modification.
[In the dining room, Lincoln and Lily have gathered Luan, Lynn, Lana, Lisa, and Todd all together for a meeting at the table]
LLincoln
Welcome to Operation Unicorn Heist. We've set another playdate for Lily and Ingrid tomorrow, and we need all your special skills to help rescue Eunice before Lola gets home. Here's the plan: [Lily shows the first drawing of him talking to Candace] I'll distract Ingrid's mom. [the second drawing shows Luan keeping Ingrid busy with her clown entertainment] Luan, you keep Ingrid entertained. [the third drawing shows Lana distracting Ingrid's dog with a bone] Lana, you distract the dog.
Good luck. He's a biter. [turns around, showing a chunk bitten off by the dog]
LLincoln
[as Lily holds up the fourth drawing of herself swapping Eunice and Nugget in Ingrid's room] Lily, you get to Eunice in Ingrid's bedroom where you'll swap her for Nugget. [the fifth drawing shows Lynn retrieving Eunice by using a drone] Lynn, you're on extraction.
Yes! I love extracting junk!
LLincoln
[confused] And then we all hold hands under a rainbow?
[chuckles sheepishly, realizing she was holding a drawing of that and puts it away] That drawing for school.
