Hurry, hurry! "Adiós, Ana, Adiós" is on!
Whoo! Yes! Telenovela time!
[squawks] Mystery! Drama! Romance!
CCarlota
Don't forget style. Obsessed with Ana's outfits.
I'm gonna try to watch it in the mercado. My favorite shift's about to start.
It's okay, mi'jito. We'll shout out the window about the juicy parts.
[rushes in] Did I miss it? Whoa! [Slips on Lalo's drool and makes Ronnie Anne fall to the floor] Ooh, sorry, mija.
I'm glad you could try to tear yourself away from your gossip long enough to be here, viejito.
Who was gossiping? I was dealing with Maybelle. And you know what a difficult customer she is.
[Ronnie Anne is almost coming out of the living room, but Frida calls her]
Are you sure you don't want to join us, mija? The novela is getting really good!
Come on. Just give it a chance. It's a family tradition.
Guys, I told you already. I'm not into telenovelas. Call me when the soccer match is on.
Shh! Why can you say no to this? [TV shows Ana sitting on a stool sewing a hat with her grandparents] That's our own favorite hero, Ana Ronalda. She's an orphan raised by her grandparents.
I'm flattered the Casagrandes want my help.
Thank you for letting Boris come along, too. I'm so excited for Halloween in the big city.
[They enter Great Lakes City and arrive at the Casagrande apartment]
Lucy! Muchas gracias for helping us!
It's my pleasure, really. Scaring people brings me joy.
[hugs Boris, mistaking him for Grandpa Leonard] And this must be the legendary Gramps that Lori's been telling us about. Nice to meet you, sir.
Boris is actually a child, but appreciates the sentiment.
Hey, Carlota. You look stressed. What's up?
CCarlota
I'm just really behind on making everyone's costumes for tonight. I'm never gonna finish on time.
Hmm. What if you had help? Leni is awesome with fashion.
That's a great idea! Babe, would you mind going back to Royal Woods to get her? We'll still have plenty of time for our romantic Halloween celebration.
CCarlota
Oh, it would really help me out, Lori.
[sighs] Of course. Anything to help you guys win. [chuckles]
[Lori returns to the Casagrande apartment with Leni in tow]
CCarlota
[quickly hugs her] Thank you so much for coming!
You can brief me on the way up. What are we looking at?
CCarlota
Silk, cotton, wool, and I was thinking… linen.
[gasps] Linen in October? Now, that's scary.
[noticing Lisa, also in tow] Lisa, what are you doing here?
None of our siblings found my musings on All-Hallows-Eve to be interesting, so they offered my 50 bucks to, and I quote, "Take my dull facts elsewhere."
Did someone say dull facts? You're speaking my language! Lisa, would you like to help me reassemble a skeleton while discussing the mythology behind this spooky holiday?
[gasps and squeals] I apologize for that amateurish display of emotion. Be right up!"
Ugh, Boo-Boo Bear, I am so ready to start our romantic Halloween celebration. Is the mercado all decorated?
Not yet. We just need to wrangle the pack of angry neighborhood cats, which means we need Lana.
[slumps in dismay] Ugh, seriously?!
It would mean a lot to me, mija.
Ugh. You know I can never say no to you, Mr. C.
[hugs her] I was counting on that.
CCarlota
I give up. At this point, it would take a miracle to…
[enters the mercado van] O-M-Gosh! I'm so sorry this is taking so long. I can't find that boutique you sent me to. GPS keeps directing me to a dumpster.
CCarlota
You have nothing to apologize for. There's no boutique. I sent you on a wild goose chase to get you out of the studio because I was jealous of your relationship with Mariella. [sighs sadly] I'm really sorry. I wouldn't blame you if you never spoke to me again.
[Carl coughs]
CCarlota
I messed things up so badly that we can't even do the show now. But don't worry, I'll tell Mariella it's all my fault. She'll definitely fire me, but… [sighs] I deserve it.
You know, there's still 20 minutes till the show. I think we can save it.
CCarlota
Wait, you still wanna work with me?
Of course. What you did wasn't very nice, but you're my friend, and I forgive you. So what do we need?
For starters: food, beverages, music, clothes…
Also not a problem. I've got an idea. Go, Team CarLeni!
[The Louds are at Goddess Greens to order some lunch]
[taking notes with a tape recorder] Whatever you're into, Great Lakes City has it all. That is, if you have another time to do all of it.
[having trouble reading the menu; uncomfortable] Hon, I'm not sure I'm cool enough for this place. There's nothing on this menu but emojis. What am I supposed to order? The dinosaur or the winky face?
I'm sure everything is fabulous, hon. Jesse said this was the trendiest restaurant in the city.
[sharing a menu with Lincoln] Oh, it totes is. It's Carlota's fave spot. She comes here all of the other time.
[even more worried] What?! Why didn't you tell us?
Lynn, it's fine! It's nearly impossible to get a reservation. What are the odds that Carlota got one at the same time as us?
CCarlota
[entering the restaurant with Mia] Hola! I like to have a noun rez uner Casagrande. [blows kisses to everyone as the Loud family gasp in horror and quickly hide their faces]
[whispering] We need to get out of here!
[whispering] I didn't try the other food. I'll just do nothing to write about!
[whispering quickly] If Carlota sees us, you'll be writing about the other end of your friendship with the Casagrandes!
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."
