Recap / The Casagrandes S 1 E 19 Cursed

Go To

Cursed!: Celebrity psychic Ernesto Estrella deems Great Lakes City to be bad luck and Abuela believes him.

"Cursed!":

  • A Day in the Limelight: For Rosa.
  • An Aesop: Bad luck can happen anywhere and regardless, don't be paranoid, it will only make things worse.
  • Gilligan Cut: When Lori tells the Casagrandes to stay with the Louds:
    Lori: They'll be totally cool with it.
    Lynn Sr./Rita: We're totally not cool with it!
  • Gross-Up Close-Up: Ronnie Anne and CJ end up seeing a close-up on Hector's nostril when Sergio starts using his video camera on different people.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero:
    • After the Casagrandes move in with the Louds, the kids find that they find living with the Louds to be not that fun, so they team up with the Loud kids to show Rosa that bad luck can happen anywhere. They put salt in her pancake batter, mix black dye with the laundry and mess with the bathroom's pipes to flood the house. Rosa instead decides her own family is bad luck and move into the woods so they can't hurt anyone.
    • A less serious example has Rosa drive the car away while the gas pump hose is still attached, causing an oil geyser.
  • Ocular Gushers: When Ronnie Anne and Lana flood the second story of the Loud house, Tia Frida makes it worse by crying her eyes out.
  • Rise of Zitboy: Ronnie Anne catches Ernesto Estrella in Flip's Food n' Fuel bathroom and learns this is the reason he cancelled his appearance in Great Lakes City. Rosa gives him a cream for it.
  • Sickeningly Sweethearts: Once again, Bobby and Lori end up stalling the bathroom line by swooning over each other, to the disgust of Lana, Carl, Lynn Jr., Luna, Carlota, and Ronnie Anne.
  • Superstition Episode: Ernesto Estralla deems Great Lakes city cursed. As such, Rosa refuses to let the family leave the apartment.
  • Toilet Humor: There is a long line for the bathroom being held up by Lori and Bobby, who do not want to go in before the other. At least a few of the characters in the line need to go #2, including Lana who explicitly says so. While in line, Luna sings "knock, knock, knocking on the bathroom door". Lynn eventually steals the front of line, and given she takes a roll of TP, she likely needs to go #2 as well.
  • The Tooth Hurts: Played for Laughs when Carl swipes Bobby's taco, resulting in Bobby breaking his teeth right to the gums.
  • Title Drop: Ernesto himself says that "Great Lakes City is cursed!"
  • What the Hell, Hero?: See Rise of Zitboy above.
