-> '''Portrayed by:''' Creator/ShiaLabeouf

The youngest Stevens child.

* TheBabyOfTheBunch: Being the youngest of his siblings makes him this among the rest of the family.
* BlackSheep: Unlike the athletically gifted Donnie and academically-minded Ren, Louis doesn't particularly excel at more "conventional" success paths.
* BookDumb: Louis does poorly in school and gets detention regularly (to the point that he plans his after-school time around it). He's shown to be smarter than Donnie (although that's not really saying much) and his schemes require a good deal of cunning to plan and normally succeed.
* BrilliantButLazy: He's able to come up with many {{Zany Scheme}}s and outsmarts plenty of people, but he's also rather BookDumb (though he could do well when he puts his mind to it).
* ClassClown: Much to the family and school staff's irritation. He insists it's all in good fun, but Steve prodding him about it in "The Big Splash" after a swim meet prompts an ImagineSpot that deconstructs it.

Back in the real world, Louis is horrified by this possibility and resolves to try taking some things more seriously.
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: Louis is the foolish sibling to Ren's responsible.
* TheGadfly: He plays pranks on others for fun, especially Ren, who he believes should loosen up every once in a while.

In TheMovie, he even tells Ren outright that while he loves messing with her, he would never go out of his way to hurt her.
* ThePrankster: His whole schtick.
