Oh, how I have been waiting for this one. I think this episode is a very good first half. To me, it feels like they were making a full-length episode and decided it wouldn't work that way. But instead of compressing the episode, they just chopped off part 2 and called it a day. What I mean to say is, this episode is basically a must-have for an extended ending fanfic, at least in my opinion.


The fumigation was over, and the Loud family was finally home. Half of the family was excited to get back home, but the other half was dreading it. The family had been split in half, and Lincoln, Lori, Lola, Lynn, Luna, and Lynn Sr always seemed to get the short end of the stick.

That group had made all kinds of deals with the other side, but had never gotten a better deal. Hiding their frustration, Lynn Sr's group entered the house.

"Ah, home sweet home," Leni said happily.


The family sat around the living room. Lynn Sr told Lana, "Lana. Do you know anything about termites being in the lake house?"

Lana explained, "I just wanted to save them from fumigation. I didn't expect them to get loose again."

Rita said, "you are in so much- Wait, what did you mean by again?"

"Uh... nothing."

Lincoln exclaimed, "ah ha! You brought those termites into our house in the first place, didn't you?"

Lana confessed, "well yes. It's just, they're so cute, and."

Lola interrupted Lana. "You are dead to me!" Lola began to chase Lana.

Lincoln said, "wait! stop, Lola. I have a better idea." Lincoln whispered something to his parents, who left to think something over.


Lola continued glaring at Lana, but managed to resist any temptation to attack. Eventually Rita and Lynn Sr came back out of their room.

Rita explained, "we've thought for a bit."

Lynn Sr said, "when we kept trading, we made a ton of promises. I promised Rita 100 Lily diaper changes, teaching Lily to drive, potty training Lily, and 20 parent-teacher confrences. Lincoln promised Lisa a plasma donation. Lori promised Leni a wide clothing selection and Lana 5 rides to the dump. Lola promised Lisa grant money and Leni a hair crimper. Luna promised to detangle Luan's wigs and be an assistant for a saw trick. Lynn agreed to cavadier for Lucy's funerals and offered a space for her bats."

Lynn nodded.

Lincoln stated, "that about sums it up."

Rita explained, "Lincoln, Lori, Luna, Lola, both Lynns, you're all off the hook. We've decided to shift all those responsibilities to Lana."

Lynn Sr's team silently cheered. Lana growled. "That's not fair."

"It's literally fair," Lori replied, "if it weren't for you, none of those promises would have been made in the first place."

Lana retorted, "what about the parent teacher confrences? How am I supposed to do those?"

"That," Lynn explained, "sounds like a you problem."


Now I know this is an unpopular opinion, but hear me out: Lana is a terrible character. The jokes around her aren't that funny. She's annoying in most episodes (especially this one). She hardly ever has standout moments. Not to mention that, other than Toads and Tiaras, every episode around her ranges from just okay to terrible (at least in my opinion.) I would say she ranks in my bottom five characters (that includes one-off characters, by the way.) If it weren't for Lisa's portrayal in Snow Bored, I would give Lana the title of the only major character I outright dislike.

Anyway that's just my opinion, I understand if you like her or something.
