[The next day… the four sisters are all in Lori's apartment again; Lynn and some five cats are watching the Ping-Pong World Series and Lana is washing three dogs in the sink until they start howling to Lola's singing while she's using Lori's shower]
Uh, hey, Lans, can you ask your dogs to be quiet?! Your cats and I are trying to watch the game!
Sorry! They're just responding to Lola's off-key shower singing.
LLola
[exits the shower; offended] I have the voice of an angel [resumes singing, until it's drowned out by the blown sound of Leni's hairdryer] Hmph. Besides, I'm only singing to drown out the sound of Leni's hairdryer!
[unplugs the hairdryer's cord from the outlet; sighs] This is clearly not going to work. There's only one thing to do.
Respect Lori's privacy and leave?
No. Make a schedule so we can all use the apartment by ourselves!
LLola
Time for work, Lori? [realizes] I mean, I'm just guessing. [chuckles] I don't know your work schedule. Why would I? That would be weird. Okay, someone else talk now.
No work for me this week. The Burnt Bean had to close for "emergency bean-ovations", so I figured I'd just chill in my apartment this afternoon. [leaves]
No! I can't miss the puking… I mean, hot dog eating contest today!
LLola
You won't. I got you.
[angrily waving a handful of bills] What in tarnation is going on in here, Loud?! I just got the water bill, the electric bill, and the cable bill for this apartment, and they're higher than my blood pressure! And with your family next door, that's really high!
[looks over the bills; shocked] What?! How could they be so bad?! I'm literally never here! I don't know how this happened! I also… don't have the money to pay them.
[swipes the bills out of her hands] Fine. I'll pay them, but I gotta tell ya, I had no idea you were gonna be such an expensive tenant. [groans] You know what? I think it might be better if you find somewhere else to live.
[guilty] I totally understand, Mr. Grouse. I'll start looking for a new place right away. I'm really sorry.
[Leni, Lynn and the twins exit the bathroom, all disgraced when they heard everything and realized what they've done]
You don't have anything to be sorry for, Lori.
Yeah, this is our fault. We're responsible for the high bills.
LLola
We've been using your apartment when you weren't here.
[snapping furiously with her face in red of rage] (YOU) WHAT?!
We knew we were respecting your privacy, but we didn't realize we were ruining your life.
To show you how sorry we are, we'll find a way to earn enough money to pay your bills.
[Rita and the twins are checking out groceries at the Super Mart]
I don't remember needing walnuts… or sardines. Lola. Lana.
LLola
We might add a few items if we was born on our birthdays earlier.
CCashier
[giving Rita a handful of raffle tickets] Congratulations, you've earned 749 promotional raffle tickets.
So that's what this was about. [glares annoyingly at the twins] I'll deal with you two later. [back to the cashier] Can I return the nuts?
CCashier
Please don't make me do that.
[Rita and the twins arrive at the Grand Coyote Canyon hotel and check in their Room 247 while Lana secretly brings her pets after not trusting any of her siblings to care for them, breaking the no-pet policy]
Girls, since they have so many lifeguards here to watch you, I hope it's okay if I hit the spa.
LLola
Of course. You do you. [shoves her out of the room] Bye! Pool time! [rips off her dress, revealing her swimsuit, and leaves]
I'll be right behind you! I just gotta find my own goggles. [opens a suitcase, revealing her pets all crammed in] You guys okay? Sorry it took very long. [takes them out of the suitcase and hides them in a desk drawer] These are your own new digs for a while. I'll be back in a bit to check on you. No fighting. [leaves the room]
FMr. Finkle
[dropping Lola off at the office with Lana already there after catching her for breaking the no-pet policy] Wait here while I find your mother. [leaves]
LLola
[turns to her twin; angrily] What were you thinking?! You know you weren't allowed to bring your pets!
[sighs sadly] I know. I was just worried no one took care of them the way I do. Maybe I need to let go a little.
I'm sorry for blowing our own trip. Can you ever forgive me here?
[Lola and Bernie arrive at the Royal Woods Mall and Lola parks her vehicle in the entrance]
BBernie
Uh… you sure you're allowed to park here?
LLola
Oh, honey, as a platinum shopper, I can park wherever I want. Now, let's hit the stores!
[Lincoln is playing a game of Settlers of Cat-Land outside in driveway with his five younger sisters while waiting for their cousin Shiloh to arrive]
I'm so excited Shiloh's hanging out with us today! I hope he gets here soon.
[Uncle Lance's car soon pulls up]
LLola
Soon enough for you?
[hops out of the car and skates towards his cousins; happily] Hey, guys!
Thanks for letting me hang here today. I didn't want to go to my mom's hot yoga class. It smells funny.
[Lana lifts up her left arm, smelling her stinky armpit and sighs]
LLola
[annoyed] Well, doesn't smell much better here, [gladly] but we're happy to have you.
What's with the racket? Mr. Coconuts is on a call with his agent!
I told you, Marty, I won't work with sock puppets!
[slamming Lincoln's head down to the floor] Stinkoln thinks Lori's mattress is now his because of an amendment in that dumb rule book!
Hmm. Well, this is for sure Dad's handwriting. Sorry, Lynn. If you never took possession of the mattress, then, it belongs to Lincoln.
[reading an amendment while taking possession of Lincoln's lamp] "Any hand-me-down not being properly cared for can be claimed by the next sibling in the Line of Succession." This light is covered in dust. [blows the dust off the lamp, which then covers her brother all over]
[hears Lola screaming, runs into the bathroom and finds her and her twin playing tug-of-war over Rita's old bathrobe; takes the robe out of their hands] What the heck is going on in here?!
Lola is trying to steal Mom's old robe from me!
LLola
It can never become yours to begin with! You know French terry is my favorite fabric!
Well, I'm two minutes older than you, so I was next in line!
LLola
[sticks a yellow sticky note on her twin's nose] That's a "Use It or Lose It" amendment I found. And since you don't even bathe, it gives me the right to TAKE THAT ROBE!
[takes the note off her nose and throws it on the floor] I don't care about your stupid rules! I'm keeping it!
[Lincoln then hears Luna and Luan fighting in their room]
[as Luan runs out of their room, carrying a leather jacket; angrily] That's my leather jacket, dude! Leni passed it down to me! [chases after her]
Yeah, but this amendment says that disrespecting an item is grounds for forfeiture!
[gets an idea and dashes into his room] I have an announcement! [his sisters all stop fighting] I've decided… [drags out Lori's old mattress] to let Lynn have this mattress.
[Lynn smiles wisely, knowing her brother is doing the right thing]
Look. I know I've started all of this, but I think everyone must get their favorite things back. The Book of Loud Stuff was created to keep the peace in this house, but now we're just using it to take advantage of ourselves. I propose one last amendment. [takes out a pen and writes down a new amendment on a yellow sticky note] "The well-being of the family always comes first."
You're right, Lincoln. You're correct, brother.
[exits his room and sees countless Holo-Lincolns all around the house; worriedly] Uh… This is bad.
LLola
[screams off-screen] LINCOLN! [hugging Eunice as the holograms surround her in the twins' room] WHAT IS HAPPENING?!
[cowering in fear on her bed; screams] IT'S A LINCOLN-POCALYPSE!
[kicking the door open; determined] Don't worry. I'm gonna make these holograms holo-gone!
[Morning at the Loud House… A rooster cock-a-doodle-doos and falls off the roof when Lynn Sr. suddenly starts sneezing loudly while coming down with a cold, and the siblings bolt out of the house]
I heard Dad sneeze! Get inside! [quickly closes the door as her siblings dash inside her apartment]
LLola
Ugh. Dad is the worst when he gets a cold. He turns into such a baby. [to Lily] No offense, Lily.
[shrugs; not caring] Mmm.
Okay, guys, don't panic. We can all stay here until Dad is well again. [grabs her bag] I'll run to the grocery store and get supplies, so we can hunker down. [opens the door, ends up bumping into Rita as she appears and falls on the floor]
There you all are. Listen, your dad is a bit under the weather, and I have to get to work. I need you to take care of him till I get home. [the siblings all groan in dismay] I know he can be a little… dramatic when he's sick. [cringes as her husband sneezes loudly]
[off-screen; weakly] I can't feel my face.
All you have to do is make sure he hydrates and rests.
Thanks, kids. I appreciate it. [leaves]
We can do this, guys. As long as we work together… [catches Lola trying to bail by sneaking out the window] Uh, Lola, no sneaking out the window.
[Lola closes the window and grumbles in annoyance; The siblings enter the master bedroom where their father is lying in bed with a red stuffy nose, an ice pack on his head, and a stack of used tissues in a trash can sitting next to him]
[sniffles the mucus in his nose and groans] Who's there? Are those my children?
It's okay, Pops. You've just got a cold.
Oh, thank you kids for trying to give me hope. I know how bad it is. [sadly writes a will]
[takes the book out his hands] Oh, for the Oath of Hippocrates. [takes out a thermometer] Father, I am going to prove you're overreacting. Open up. [Lynn Sr. groans as she sticks the thermometer in his mouth, then checks her watch] See? 98.7 degrees. You're fine.
[gasps in shock] Fine?! Normal is 98.6! I'm burning up! Can someone make me some toast and tea, please?
LLola
[entering the garage in her princess car; sniffing] Mmm! I knew I smelled drama brewing. [sniffs; to Luna and Luan] You two are in some sort of competition. In the performing arts? And there's money involved! Ooh! This is going to get messy!
No mess here, dude. We're rooting for each other and have already decided win for either of us is a win for both of us!
LLola
Uh-huh. Sure. [smelling drama] Ooh, I smell more drama. Bobby accidentally liked another girl's photo! [hops into her car and drives away]
[Lincoln and his sisters are all eating chicken pot pie for lunch at the dining room table while Luna and Luan sit on opposite sides, glaring darkly at each other]
LLola
[sensing some drama between them] So, how's your act going, Luan?
I don't know, Lola. Why don't you ask Luna how my act is going? [stabs her fork into her pie, crossly, splattering it all over Lincoln's face]
[squirting ketchup on hers; also cross] What's that supposed to mean? [bangs the ketchup, squirting it onto Lucy's head]
Oh, I think you know. [slams her fists on the table, flinging and splattering her pie on Leni and Lola's faces]
[sighs; to Leni, Lucy and Lola] Ponchos out, people. [they duck under the table and pop back up nervously, all wearing yellow ponchos]
Hey, Leni, can you pass the chicken pot spy? Oh, sorry. Pie?
Huh! Excuse me. I don't like your drone. Oops, I mean, tone.
LLola
I knew there'd be drama! [takes out a bucket of popcorn] Good thing I came prepared.
Okay, real talk. What the heck happened to us supporting each other?! I mean, spying on me? Seriously?!
[rolls her eyes; fed up] Give me a break, dude. I caught you doing the same exact thing! Admit it. [bangs the table] All you care about is winning!
[bangs the table, also fed up] Like you're any better!
[confused] Am I supposed to pass the chicken pot pie or not?
You know what? Whatever. From now on, it's every sister for herself! [walks off into the kitchen, having enough]
Fine! Works for me! [walks off into the living room, also having having enough]
