Recap / The Loud House S 3 E 26 Cooked

Go To

Lynn Sr. finally opens his own restaurant, but his kids' promo ideas overwhelm him.

"Cooked!"

  • 30 Minutes, or It's Free!: Lynn's promo is that your meal arrives at your table in 15 minutes or else it's free.
  • Continuity Nod:
    • Mr. Loud's dream of opening his own restaurant from the "A Fridge Too Far" finally happens.
    • Lincoln makes a commercial for the restaurant by filming other restaurants in Royal Woods unable to seat 13 people.
  • Decided by One Vote: When the kids decided which promo they should do, it's an 11 way tie because everyone voted for themselves.
  • The Door Slams You: Leni accidentally crushes Lincoln behind the restaurant's front door, and later does this to Mr. Loud with the kitchen door.
  • Edible Theme Naming: Mr. Loud offers to name some of the menu items after his family like "Lu-anchovy pizza" and "Luna Casserole".
    • Subverted with Leni's suggestion ("Ham-burger").
  • The Inspector Is Coming: Lisa plays an inspector to prepare her father for the real deal. And she follows all the rules to the letter.
  • Knows a Guy Who Knows a Guy: Lincoln is able to get his makeshift commercial for the restaurant on air because Clyde's dads play sports with Patchy Drizzle.
  • Meaningful Echo: After Mr. Loud hires Grant and Kotaro, they do a group Fist Bump with Dad saying “Pound it guys! Now blow it up!” Lincoln later does this when he and his siblings finally start working together.
  • Mobile Shrubbery: Clyde disguises himself as a tree so he can secretly film Lincoln trying to book a table for 13 at various restaurants. It results in various people reporting a tree monster riding a bicycle.
  • Of Corpse He's Alive: The kids puppeteer Mr. Loud during an interview with Katherine Mulligan while he is still unconscious after having the door slammed on him.
  • Restaurant-Owning Episode: Mr. Loud opens his own restaurant this episode. Unlike most other examples, it sticks.
  • Terrible Interviewees Montage: When trying to find staff, Mr. Loud interviews Mrs. Bernardo who wants to get into a role she just got, a teen who only has eyes for his phone and is quite irresponsible, and Mr. Grouse (who didn't even come for a job, but only to complain about Charles going to the bathroom on his lawn).
  • Too Many Cooks Spoil the Soup: Each of the Louds comes up with their own unique promotion for the restaurant, and soon enough, Lynn Sr. is running himself ragged trying to keep up with them all.
  • Watch the Paint Job: Vanzilla is crushed under a fish-shaped decoration from the old restaurant that Mr. Loud bought.
