Tear Jerker / Peeking Through the Fourth Wall

Go To

  • In the episode about "Trustworthy", during the fire scene, Everybody Cries.
  • Both Lola and Lincoln start to cry in "Diary of a Loud" when Lincoln attacks Lola and Lola cowers away from Lincoln.
  • The fanfic portrayal of Ronnie Anne in episode 22 ("A Second Chance") upsets her so much that she storms out of the living room. When Lincoln manages to bring her back, it's clear that she's been crying.
  • Lisa's horrified reaction to an incredibly heartless piece of dialogue ("I've nine other siblings. No one will notice that one of them will be missing.") from her fic self in episode 27 ("A Town Hates a Boy").
    Lisa: I'm...I'm appalled. What an ugly, abhorrent thing to say. It was already reprehensible of me to describe my own brother as "dispensable," but this? Is...is this really how the author sees me? What horrific stories has he heard about me?!
  • In the After Dark episode covering "Diary of Luan Loud", Luan is clearly appalled and is nearly brought to tears by the fic's portrayal of her as doing reprehensible things like wishing death on her siblings (and kitten), raping Lincoln, berating Luna for being bi, telling antisemitic jokes, screwing Bobby, and turning the twins against each other while getting sexually excited over it.
    Luan: (squirming on the couch, on the verge of tears) I- I don't like this.
    Luan (after Leni says, 'Let's finish the story') Do we have to?
  • While his reaction is admittedly pretty funny, when episode 31 ("Hide and Seek") ends with a Twist Ending that none of the sisters are actually real, Lincoln freaks out and starts making sure that the sisters he's watching the episode with are real.
