Ooh! When did we put a mirror in the living room?
LoriThat's not a mirror, that's me! Now go take your dress back!
What?! No! You take yours back!
[End flashback]
That's it? You gotta be kidding me! Clyde and I wear the same shirt on picture day, and we didn't care.
It's a sister thing. You wouldn't understand.
Well let's go help them work it out So we can have our house back. [Lynn stops him with her hockey stick] Oof!
Negative. In this family, we have a sister fight protocol: butt out, and let them resolve it on their own.
Yeah? Well I have a protocol, too! Which is I don't like pooping in a bucket! [enters Lori and Leni's room] Hey guys. Now look, I know you've been having a little problem.
Lori
Lincoln...
But I think I can settle this.
Leni, why don't you just return the dress? Lori once said blue makes you look washed out anyway.
Okay, okay. I'm just spitballing here. Lori, why don't you return the dress? Leni says taffeta makes you look like Aunt Ruth. And who wants that? Am I right?
Lori
Excuse me?!
So, what do you say? Ready to hug it out?
Lori
We already hugged it out! We were fine! But now that I know that she thinks I look like Aunt Ruth, we are definitely not fine!
You insulted my skin tone! Nothing's gonna make that right!
[Leni and Lori fight as Lincoln leaves, only to be scared by his sisters]
Ugh, nice job, Lincoln! We told you to stay out of it!
Based on rising decibel levels, I'm up in the threat level in the house from thunderstorm to hissing cats. Sisters, to your stations!
What's going on? What happened to the fighting?
Lori
Pfft. We're over that. We made up.
Correct. Threat level is back to Field of Daisies.
[offscreen] Oh, thank goodness!
I don't understand. How did you fix everything?
No, Lincoln. You fixed everything.
We told you, if you just butted out, we'd resolve it on our own.
I came up with the perfect solution: Lori gets to wear it on the days that end in Y, and I get to wear it the rest of the time.
[Lincoln looks toward a confused Lori, who shrugs]
LLynn
And once they made up, the rest of us made up.
Heh. Well, I guess I've learned my lesson: Always respect the sister fight protocol.
Glad you're finally getting it.
Oh, I totally do, believe me. Next time when Lynn says she needs a windshield wiper when Lisa talks, or Lana says Lola snores like Pop-Pop, I am staying out of it.
You said what now, sporty?!
Oh, I snore, do I? How can you hear me over all your sleep-farting?!
Phew. Can't wait to use the real toilet.
[All the Loud sisters get into a brawl as Lincoln watches in horror]
Aah! Retreat! Retreat! [Runs back into his room]
Wait for me! [rushes to join them as the brawl shakes the whole house]
Turns out I have nothing to worry about. With all my sisters, it's like having the Lincoln Library x10. I'm pretty sure whatever happened in my life, they'll help me remember it.
Lori
How about that time Lincoln tried to climb the shelves to get cookies? [Flashback to Lincoln slipping and giving himself a wedgie]
That one I'd rather forget.
[The Loud siblings gather for a group hug as Clyde takes a photo]
[while being dragged by Lori] We're leaving? But Mrs. Casagrande's baking a cake!
Lori
Lincoln, I literally just lost my boyfriend. Do you really wanna argue with me right now?
Babe, where are you going?
Lori
What do you care? Why don't you just go back to your precious bodega? You obviously care about it more than you care about me! [cries]
I'm just gonna go help Mrs. Casagrande with the frosting. [flees]
Lincoln, what's happening out there?
I don't know. But it was too much drama for me.
Wait a minute. They're hugging, and Lori's smiling. She must have finally convinced him! Yes! [hugs Lori] Thank you, thank you, thank you! I knew we could do this! I'll go pack up my stuff.
Lori
Uh, actually...
Lori
I know I came here to convince Bobby not to move, but after talking to him, I think he should stay.
After he totally forgot about you?
Lori
But he didn't. He's actually been thinking really hard about how we can make this work. We'll only be apart for a year, and then we can both go to the college here where your Uncle Carlos teaches.
Well, that's great for you guys, but what about me? Lincoln, come on! Help me out here!
I don't know, Ronnie Anne. I think your family's pretty awesome. I mean, who can make a cake like this?
And the good news is that is nothing to worry about, we’re not a bad influence on Lily after all.
LLLincoln, Lori, Leni, Luna, Lynn Jr., Lola, Lana, and Lisa
[putting their arms into the air to celebrate while Lucy is silent and putting her arms in the air] YAY!
[Charles, the family’s dog which the family doesn't notice, comes into the room, and takes the doughnut from Lily’s hand, causing Lily to turn red, snarl with fury, and her arms shake in anger]
[The entire family (including a shocked and horrified Rita and Lynn Sr., and a horrified and terrified Lincoln) reacts back by freezes terrified, looks at Lily, and gasps in horror, while one more picture frame drops, then the episode ends.]
[Lori goes to the door just as Clyde is coming up the stairs ready to act normal around her; Lori opens the door and sees Clyde on the doorstep, who also sees her and freezes surprised.]
Lori
Clyde! I was just on my way to see you. There's something I really wanted to tell you. [Clyde does not answer.] First, I wanted to apologize for never appreciating how kind and thoughtful you are. And second, I wanna thank you for making me feel so good about myself all these years. You're a special guy, Clyde, and literally anyone would be lucky to be your crush.
[She hugs Clyde, who after a few seconds of silence, nosebleeds all over her shoe and passes out; Lori screams and drops Clyde, who is caught by Lincoln, having seen everything.]
Lori, what happened?! [they take Clyde inside and put him on the couch]
Lori
I don't know! I was just telling Clyde that I'm okay with him liking Leni now, and --
What are you talking about? He doesn't like Leni.
Lori
But I saw them in the kitchen. He got a nosebleed all over her shoes.
Yeah, because he got hit in the nose!
Lori
Well, why was he acting like a robot with her?
He was just showing her what happens when he's around you!
Lori
But I was just over at his house; I heard him say she was beautiful.
Because she was dressed like you!
Lori
What? Why were they doing all this?
Because Leni was helping Clyde learn to act normal around you, just like you wanted!
Lori
So he never stopped having a crush on me? [Lincoln shakes his head no; thinking] Ha! I knew it! [talking] No, you didn't!
Uh, who are you talking to?
Lori
No one.
[Lynn Sr. grumbles, marches to the door and slams it. The siblings get their attention this time.]
Oh, hey Dad! Welcome home! Why the grumpy face?
Because I lost my family to those ding dang devices! We usually do stuff together! Now I can't even get you to look up when I come in the door. Can't you put those things down once in a while?
Lori
But Dad, we need them. Our lives literally depend on them.
Lori
Ooh. My last post previously got 100 likes. New record. Look. [Shows Leni her post]
So cute! You've really found your best angle!
Lori
Thanks! Not to brag but I kind of feel like I've mastered the selfie.
Oh totes! Your pic almost got as many likes as Carol Pingrey's.
Lori
[Gasps and drops her phone] Ow! Carol Pingrey?! I didn't see her on this app!
She just joined! Can you believe her first selfie got 101 likes?
Lori
[Takes Leni's phone] Give me that! [Sees Carol's selfie] Ugh, typical. Perfect Carol Pingrey has to one-up me in everything I do.
[First flashback shows Younger Carol receiving a Bluebell Scout medal]
Don't feel bad, Lori. You sold almost as many cookies as Carol!
[Second flashback shows Carol beating Lori out for homecoming queen]
Aw, don't feel bad, Lori. You got almost as many votes as Carol!
[Third flashback shows Carol beating Lori in a golf tournament]
[Jumping up and down] Yay, Lori! You got more points higher than Carol!
Lori
Thanks, Leni. But let me explain golf scoring. Again.
[Back to the present]
Lori
Ugh! I'm sick of it! [Pacing around] I've literally been working for three months getting more likes on my own photo before.
Lori
How excited are you for tonight's episode?
So excited! According to rumors on social media, Tristan's going to turn the dungeon into a gym. Tristan working out, can you even? [They sigh dreamily]
[Groans] Let's hope this works Edwin. [goes over to Lori and Leni] Hey guys, now that we're all, um, ' VoM heads ', you have to join me in all of the super fun pre-show rituals.
