  • Phlebotinum Overload: The dance battle game begins to overheat and short out due to Lincoln and Leni’s game. Then all their friends join in too.
  • Too Dumb to Fool: Stella and Zach's first act to stop Leni and her friends is to seal the arcade games with caution tape. Unfortunately, Leni thinks it means she and her friends are VIP's at Gus's and lets her group play.
  • Win-Win Ending: As Lincoln and Leni's friends clean up the damage they caused, Lincoln and friends usual booth has an adjustment made to it by extending some extra room for both groups.


"She's All Bat"

  • Shout-Out: The title refers to She's All That.
  • Tell Him I'm Not Speaking to Him: Lola uses her teddy bear Mr. Sprinkles to give Lucy the silent treatment.
