Kara quotes from The Loud House

[groans] Why did I have to open my big mouth?

Now, let's get you gussied up for the camera. [brushes her hair and finds a scar on the back of her neck] Whoa, cool scar!

Oh, thanks. Hockey puck. I was five, I think.

[amazed] Whoa! You play hockey?!

Wow!

That's so cool!

Stella

Whoa!

[snort-laughs] Whoa, you have friends?

[aggravated] Oh, get lost, Josh! [Josh then steals her strawberry gummies and runs off, laughing and blowing raspberries at her; angrily shaking her fist at him] AND STOP TAKING MY SNACKS!

Younger sibling? Yeah, I have plenty of those myself.

[blowing his whistle] No running! [his friends all look at him, puzzled] Sorry. Reflexes. My dads made me get lifeguard training before I was allowed to bathe alone.

[throws a life ring in the pool; wearing an inflatable swan] Well, I've pre-floated all the floaties. Come on, Ramirez. Send that text!

Stella

[checks her phone] Sorry, guys. Still nothing.

[sitting on the slide; groans] It's so hot! [slides down it, stopping just before he enters the pool while groaning]

[sighs] What if she never texts back? Well, what if she lost her phone? Or her mind? You know how wild teacher conferences get.

You know what, I'm just gonna dip my toe in.

That should be everything. The only evidence is my tense, nagging guilt.

Stella

[relieved] Thank you, guys. Now you better go. Principal Ramirez will be here in 20 minutes.

Later, Stellar.

Good luck.

Don't be nervous. There's no way Ramirez will know we used the pool. [starts to leave, until…]

[caws; mimicking Lincoln] There's no way Ramirez will know we used the pool.

[shocked] Did they just--?!

[caws; mimicking Zach] Pool party!

Stella

[horrified] They're repeating what we said!

Those featherheads are gonna rat us out!

[takes out a roll of duct tape] Oh, no, they won't! [attempts to tape their beaks shut, causing them to shriek in terror]

Stella

[grabs the duct tape out of her hands] You're not taping their beaks shut, Kara.

Wait, guys, there's no reason why Ramirez would think they were talking about us.

[mimicking Rusty] Rusty Spokes cannonball!

[relieved] Phew. It's just Rusty.

[offended] Kara! Not cool, dawg!

[mimicking Clyde] Stella, the pool party hostess with the mostest! [squawks]

[squawks; also mimicking Clyde] Chef Clyde's tropical smoothies!

[sighs, realizing she's wrong] We're toast.

Welp, there goes my recommendation to U of M.

Stella

[disappointed] No. I'm the one she trusted, and it was my idea. I'll tell her it was all my fault.

[frustrated when the green parrot mimics him] Why am I being singled out?!

Maybe it's not enough to teach them new phrases. We have to make them forget the old ones! [swinging a round cracker tied to a string like a pendulum in front of the parrots' faces] You are getting very sleepy. You will fall into a deep sleep and forget all about the pool party.

[notices] Uh-oh, I think Zach caught some stray hypno-rays!

[collapses and stands up; groaning] Where am I? Why am I looking at birds?

They aren't saying anything, so I think it worked.

Yeah! They forgot all about the pool party, Lincoln.

[squawks; mimicking Clyde] Pool party, Lincoln.

[realizing he messed up] Whoopsie.

[groans] I gotta start over again.

Don't bother, yo. I just came up with a better idea. [then shown in front of the house, waving to his cousin Derek; holding birdcage with a blanket covering it] Thanks, D-Dawg! [brings the cage into the backyard] Cousin Derek comes through again. I sent him a picture and he got three identical birds in under 30 minutes!

Stella

I still don't feel good about replacing Ramirez's birds.

It's only until Lisa can wipe the memory. We can sneak them back here next week.

Behold! [pulls the blanket off the cage, revealing a featherless parrot, another parrot with an eyepatch, and a third parrot with a black beak]

Stella

Rusty, these birds look nothing like Ramirez's!

Relax. Cousin Derek also sold me bird paint. [holds up three cans of bird paint with a logo of parrot (which resembles Sergio), corresponding to the original parrots' feather colors; paints the replacement parrots to look identical to Principal Ramirez's] Oh, missed a spot. Done!

Stella

I must admit, they don't look that bad… if you squint.

[in Italian] Buongiorno! (translation: Good day!)

[also in Italian] Come stai? (translation: How are you?)

Stella

[surprised in anger] Rusty, these birds speak Italian!

Yo, forget about it.

Not that one. He's from New York.

Stella

Either way, Principal Ramirez is gonna know they're not her birds! [pulls out her phone, getting a text] It's her! "Five minutes away", car emoji, smiley face emoji.

She's really going hard on the emojis.

Stella

[out of options] Welp, guess I'll have to face the music.

No, we all will.

How you doing?

Not great, but thanks for asking.
