Crashed Course

When the siblings discover Lori has been getting low scores on her college exams, they try to get her back on track.
  • Crazy-Prepared: Lincoln is revealed to have a chest full of wigs to use as disguised for plenty of characters whom they know of, not just the sisters as previously established.
  • Failed a Spot Check: As Lori explained back in "Selfie Improvement", lower scores are better in golf, and golfing acts as exams at Fairway. The siblings don't realize this until the last minute.
  • Feathered Fiend: One of Ronnie Anne's previous pranks involved sending Sergio to harass Lincoln.
  • Invisibility Cloak: Lincoln hides Vanzilla from Lori by using a David Steele family van camouflage, making it blend in with the background.
  • Maintain the Lie: Part of the scheme that the Loud children set up is that Vanzilla got a flat tire and they need to repair. Leni felt guilty about this, so she popped it so it would actually be true. However, this ends up Gone Horribly Wrong.
  • Paper-Thin Disguise: The Loud kids use plenty of disguises involving this trope.
  • Phoneaholic Teenager: When Lori notices that all of her personal devices have been shut off (due to Lucy interfering), she screams bloody murder.
  • Totem Pole Trench:
    • Lincoln and Lynn do this while disguised as Lori on the title card.
    • In the actual episode, Lincoln, Lana, Lynn, and Lisa do this while disguised as Lori. Lisa is initially the one in the Lori wig, but Lynn ends up donning the wig when attempting to golf.

Puns and Buns

Benny hires Luan to work at the Burpin' Burger, but her antics keep getting in the way.
  • A Day in the Limelight: For Benny, who plays a starring role in the episode.
  • Call-Back: Luan's role as Heidi Heifer in "Stressed for the Part" is mentioned.
  • Casting Gag: Clyde's second voice actor, Andre Robinson, returns in this episode, following the footsteps of Lincoln's first regular voice actor Grant Palmer in voicing a Burpin' Burger staff member named after themselves.
  • Daydream Surprise: Benny is shown telling Luan that she is fired, which causes her to burst into tears, and she furiously breaks up with him. It turns out to have actually been part of his imagination, and he is still in the process of doing it.
  • Deconstructed Character Archetype: Of the Plucky Comic Relief: Luan's antics irritate numerous customers and cause endless anxiety for Benny.
  • "Eureka!" Moment: Luan remarks that she and Benny will at least see each other again in Dairyland, giving Benny the idea to have her sign spin as the Burpin' Burger mascot instead.
  • Shout-Out: Luan swimming in the milkshake machine is one to Nickelodeon's own Good Burger.
  • Snipe Hunt: Benny's attempts to get Luan busy is to have her do nigh-impossible tasks like using a unicycle to deliver takeout food to his aunt in Hazeltucky and going to the mall to deliver food to a man with a blue mohawk. Unfortunately for him, she finds ways to make them easy.
  • Toilet Humor: Luan gives everyone who orders a Number Two fake dog poop instead of their meal.
