Go To

1!!"Fam Scam"
2Lola befriends pageant legend Cricket Van Doren. Embarrassed by the Loud family shenanigans, Lola tries to pass herself as a [=McBride=] instead to impress Cricket.
3* ADayInTheLimelight: For Lola
4* ExtremeOmnivore: When devouring Clyde’s dish, Lynn ends up eating one of the wheels of the cart as well. Later, El Diablo eats the other three wheels.
5* {{Gasshole}}: Lynn lets out a loud burp in Lola’s ImagineSpot. And later again at the table. And [[RuleOfThree again]] after inadventently devouring the wheels of the chart on which Clyde served his dish.
6* ImagineSpot: Lola has two in regards to hanging out with Cricket: one of the two having a perfect tea party in a fantasy land, and another of them at the Loud House, ruined by the usual Loud House shenanigans.
7* MaintainTheLie: Lola has to go through great trouble to keep up the lie that she is a [=McBride=], without anyone noticing. This includes quickly making a scene or shutting Clyde up when he’s about to say/hear something that could reveal the truth, or hastily leaving the house with Cricket when Harold and Howard return home unexpectedly. It only gets worse when Cricket wants to meet with Lola again at the mall while the other Louds are there, forcing Lola to avoid them seeing her. The scheme finally blows up in Lola’s face when Howard and Harold also show up at the mall, and reveal they are not Lola’s parents.
8* NobodyHereButUsStatues: To avoid Leni from seeing her at the clothing store, Lola quickly puts on a hat and sunglasses, and pretends to be a mannequin.
9* SpottingTheThread: While at the [=McBride=] house, Cricket notices Lola looks rather off in the family pictures (due to Lola pasting her own photo to the photo’s in the house). Downplayed in that it doesn’t lead to Cricket seeing through Lola’s lie.
10* SupremeChef: While ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouseMovie'' established that prestigious baking skills run in the [=McBride=] family, Clyde really shows it here when he cooks for the Louds in preparation for the [=McBrides=] hosting the operatic society.
11* SwallowedWhole: The episode ends with El Diablo swallowing Cricket, and Lana ordering him to spit out Lola's friend.
12* WhoopeeCushion: Luan pulls this prank on Leni.
13----
14!!"Farm to Unstable"
15With Liam's family unable to help at the barn, Lincoln and pals try to help him out.
16* AFriendInNeed: Lincoln and his friends ''try'' to be this to Liam by offering their help after they learn he has to run the farm all by himself (his grandmother is wheelchair bound and his father and brother are away at an egg convention). Unfortunately, their cutting corners only ends up making things worse.
17* BurningWithAnger: Mee-Maw briefly upon finding out that the group sold produce from Flip's instead of their farm fresh produce.
18* CuttingCorners: When they find themselves unable to handle the workload of the farm, Lincoln, Stella, Zach, and Clyde decide to buy produce from the store.
19* GreenAroundTheGills: Mr. Grouse's face turns green from the expired rutabagas.
20* GroupHug: Liam shares this with his friends at the end of the episode.
21* HandyFeet: While shearing corn, Liam churns butter and milks a goat with his feet.
22* HopeSpot: Lincoln and the others are told by Liam and his grandmother that thanks to them, their sale was a success. They are overjoyed to hear this, but as they're about to celebrate, an angry mob of people whom became sick by the spoiled food they got from them show up to complain.
23* TheNoseKnows: After Lincoln points out there's one place to go when you're desperate, it cuts to Flip recognizing the smell of desperation seconds before Lincoln and his friends walk in.
