1!! The Last Laugh
2Luan fears Mr. Coconuts is out for revenge when she replaces him in her act with Lola.
3----
4* DrivesLikeCrazy: Lola's driving ends up smashing Mr. Coconuts. She [[NeverMyFault initially denies any responsibility]] before reluctantly apologizing for the accident (allegedly).
5* EnforcedMethodActing: [[invoked]]Discussed. Luan suggests that for a future performance, she eats a pizza, and Lola spits it out. Lola suggests that she eat ham and pepperoni to make the performance more realistic.
6* PeopleFallOffChairs: Luan and Lola at one point do their routine on the news, and Katherine Mulligan is laughing so hard that she falls out of her office chair.
7* PeoplePuppets: With Mr. Coconuts out of commission, Lola (who damaged him in the first place due to her driving) fills in for Luan's ventriloquist acts.
8* VengefulAbandonedToy: When Luan and Lola's props for their act become missing/destroyed, Luan believes Mr. Coconuts is sabotaging them as revenge for being replaced.

10!! Driver's Dread
11Leni looks for alternatives to earn her driver's license.
12----
13* CallBack: The events of "Driving Miss Hazy" are brought up, complete with a flashback to the ending of that episode.
14* CerebusRetcon: The ending to "Driving Miss Hazy" is repeated, but with Leni being more concerned with her situation than she was in the proper episode. This also gives context to the episode's conflict of Leni being uneasy about driving.
15* ADayInTheLimelight: For Leni.
16* DrivesLikeCrazy: Leni, as expected from her. Though her "instructors" certainly don't help matters.
17* DrivingStick: The first thing Leni does in Bolhofner's car is fiddle with the shifter, she stops this the instant he gives her an unamused glare.
18* FailedASpotCheck: The DMV examiner who proctors Leni's fifteenth driving test fails to notice the self-driving device on Vanzilla.
19* FearInducedIdiocy: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. While Leni has never been that smart from the get-go, it's revealed that the reason she's bad at driving is due to her fear of failing to drive.
20* FoodAsBribe: Leni gets Mr. Grouse to help her learn how to drive by agreeing to pay him in "Lynn-sagnas".
21* NeverMyFault: Mr. Bolhofner yells at Leni for wrecking his car, when the crash was caused by his DrillSergeantNasty behavior making Leni nervous.
22* NoodleIncident: Leni's proctor has clearly proctored her before amidst her fourteen previous attempts, and is cautious about having to proctor her again. It's unknown if that was before or ''during'' the events of "Driving Miss Hazy".
23* NotCheatingUnlessYouGetCaught: Strangely for a series that frequently employs CheatersNeverProsper aesops, Leni actually gets away with cheating on her driver's test. It's diminished by the fact she does learn to drive perfectly well by herself, but it doesn't really change the overall point.
24* OhCrap: The proctor for Leni's driving test immediately shudders and dons a helmet upon realizing who she's proctoring.
25->'''Proctor:''' [[OhNoNotAgain Leni Loud]]... [[NoodleIncident I remember you.]]
26* OnlySaneMan: Leni is slightly more sensible than her first two supposed instructors.
27* PedalToTheMetalShot: Leni is pressured into doing this twice on the highway during the "lesson" with Mr. Bolhofner. The latter even namedropping the trope the second time it happens.
28* PlotArchaeology: Leni resumes and succeeds in her attempt to get her driver's license five seasons after "Driving Miss Hazy".
29* PottyEmergency: Rita drinks one too many cups of coffee and rushes to go to the bathroom as Leni tries to ask her for a ride to the outlet mall. She's forced to use Mr. Grouse's bathroom after being told about Lola taking one of her four-hour baths.
30* ScatterbrainedSenior: Mr. Grouse winds up falling asleep during the attempt Leni has with him the very moment they leave the parking lot.
31* SequelEpisode: To "Driving Miss Hazy" from Season 1, though with Leni taking on a more proactive role on her own.
