The ride back to Royal Woods was tense, as no one had spoken a word for hours. In vanzilla, Rita was at the wheel, Lynn Sr was in the passenger seat, Ashe, Lori, Leni, Luna, Luan, Lily, Ronnie Anne, Diane, Zella and Francine were in the seats behind them, all in that order. The van was pretty cramped, but none of them cared. The sisters felt beaten down after just witnessing their own brother get arrested. Ronnie Annie decided to tag along, her mother approving as she held her head down like mostly everyone else. But Ashe and her friends were giving Rita and Lynn the stink eye from the back seat, which the parents could see uncomfortably through the rear-view mirror.

When they returned to the house, most of them headed upstairs while Ashe took this as her opportunity to confront her deadbeat Aunt and Uncle. They knew this was coming, so they tried to play it cool.

Rita:"Ashe...we swear this isn't what we wanted to happen. We can't tell you how sorry we are."

Ashe:"Sorry? You're freaking sorry?!"

She stopped to look down at Lily, who is at Rita's arms as of now, and didn't want her to be exposed to this.

Ashe:"Get the kid out of here. I don't want her to hear this."

Ronnie Anne:"I can take her."

Rita gave Lily to Ronnie Anne, who walked up the stairs, now out of sight from the three adults. Now, Ashe could continue to make the Loud Parents feel guilty.

Ashe:"I just united with that boy a few days ago, and you have him sent to the slammer. At least you have a chance to get him out. After all, you never even bothered with me! Four years, I waited for some help outside, from you guys! But instead, you chose to not believe in me, left me to rot in that place! You never even visited or sent me a damn card! DON'T MAKE THAT MISTAKE AGAIN!"

Rita and Lynn felt small. Ashe towered over them both in fury as Lynn decided to look down and change the subject in the worst way possible.

Lynn Sr:"I-uh...ahem...I see you gained a little weight from the last time we saw you."

That remark wanted to make Ashe punch them both in the face. But she held back as she decided that they're not worth it.

Ashe:"...You know, both my parents are dead and neither of you jerks were there when I needed you."

And with that, Ashe left them in the living room, feeling more guilty than ever as they held their heads down in sadness while Ashe decided to storm upstairs. There, Ronnie Anne was sitting at the top of the stairs, holding Lily and plugging her ears from what she just heard.

Ashe:"...How long were you sitting there?"

Ronnie:"...Whole time."

Then, Lily gave Ashe puppy dog eyes which she couldn't resist as she gave a smile.

Ashe:"...Oh, come here, you."

Ronnie Anne gratefully gave Lily to Ashe, who held her gently, cuddling her as Lily then gave Ashe a little peck on the cheek.

Ashe:"Aw...and I don't even know your name."

Ronnie Anne:"It's Lily."

Ashe:"Cute."

Ronnie Anne:"Come on. Let's go check up on the others."

Ashe:"Good call."

Heading over to Lori's room, they could see that the sisters and Ashe's friends were in a state of total depression. Lori and Leni were on their respective beds, Luna was staring out the window, Luan was at Lori's desk mirror, Diane was sitting on Leni's bed and both Francine and Zella were sitting on the floor, back to back, with Zella's ponytail over Francine's shoulder. Francine tried blowing it off, much to Zella's dismay.

Zella:"Stop messing with my hair."

Francine:"I'm not messing with your hair."

Zella:"...Whatever."

Ashe:"Is...everyone okay."

All:"Meeeeeehhhh..."

Their response make Ashe and Ronnie Anne slump in sadness a little.

Ashe:"Oookaay..."

And it was then that Ronnie Anne looked towards Diane and noticed something about her.

Ronnie Anne:"Who's the girl with the huge keister?"

Ashe:"Diane. And she hates it when she talks about her behind."

Ronnie Anne:"How come?"

Ashe:"Too many butt jokes."

Ronnie Anne:"She kinda looks like my cousin, Carlota. Except, she's got an even bigger-"

Ashe:"Okay! Enough of that subject. Let's just get this meeting started."

Then, she took a slipper and slams on it a desk, getting everyone's attention.

Lori:"Hey! That's my thing!"

Ashe:"Not now, Lori. We all know why we're here, right?"

Ronnie Anne:"Lincoln..."

And then, Leni had burst into tears, leaving Diane to comfort her as she wraps her arm around the teen and pat her shoulder.

Ashe:"I know this hurts all of you, but now's not the time to get emotional."

Luna:"Yeah, but we've had it coming. And Lincoln didn't deserve what happened to him."

Lori:"Even though, we use to treat him so poorly..."

Zella, Diane and Francine:"You WHAT?!"

Lori:""Would you relax?! It was only a few times!"

Luan:"Not really. We've been taking Lincoln for granted for years on end. I've practically tortured him with my pranks."

Lily:"Bad, Lori! Bad!"

Luan:"I can't believe it took Lincoln getting arrested to make me realize how badly I've treated him.

Lori:"We have been saying that for 11 years!"

Then, Ashe slaps the slipper on the desk again, ever harder this time, getting everyone's attention yet again.

Ashe:"ENOUGH! We don't need anymore drama right now. We just need to talk about how we're gonna get Lincoln out of prison?"

Ronnie Anne:"You make it soon like we're breaking him out."

Ashe:"That's what I'm planning."

The rest of the group were surprised by what they heard, yet eager to hear where she was going with this.

Ashe:"But first, Lori, and Leni, we're gonna need some fabrics."

Luan:"Should we leave Lily here? She shouldn't get involved in this."

Ashe:"Trust me. We could use someone to handle small jobs. She'll be safe with us than anywhere else right now."

Pretty soon, Lori headed downstairs to see her parents sulking in the living room, looking worst than before as she goes down to confront them.

Lori:"Mom? Dad? How are you feeling?"

Rita:"Like we just ripped out own hearts and shoved them down our throats."

Lori:"(0_o') ...Okaay. Look, you shouldn't entirely blame yourselves for what happened. There's no way you could've known this could happen."

Rita:"But we made it happen by getting the police involved. We should've just looked for your all ourselves and this whole thing would've blown over."

Lori:"Well...come on! There's got to be a positive side to all this, right? Mom, you've been to prison before. It literally can't be all that bad, right?"

Rita looked at her daughter in confusing. Little did she or her husband know that Lori was actually signaling the others to move in and out through the kitchen.

Ashe:"Now's our chance."

They were taking the back door out as Ashe lead the group, then Zella and then Francine and Diane. Next came Luna, then Leni, who was holding Lily, then Luan and then Ronnie Anne. All the while, Lori continued to distract her parents.

Lori:"Well...I told some of my friends about the situation and uh...I'm gonna head over to meet up with them and talk about it."

Rita:"How did they take the news?"

Lori:"Eh. As well as anyone else would."

And with that, she headed out the back door as well and headed to the front yard. There, she met up with the rest of the group.

Lori:"All taken care of."

The rest of them were relieved to hear that.

Ashe:"Good. Now, let's go save Lincoln.

Speaking of whom, Lincoln was in a cell at the far back corner of the police station, laying on a cot and staring at the ceiling, wondering where did it all go wrong. A few cops were at desks, with two staring at the kid.

Cop:"It's not everyday you arrest a kid for personal assault."

Cop 2:"Not proud of it either. But you need to toughen up. He still committed a crime."

Cop:"Yeah, but one of those people assaulted was that cheapskate, Flip, who's had it coming for a while."

Cop 2:"True. But still."

Lincoln blocked out their voices and kept asking himself the same question.

Lincoln:"How did things get this bad?"

And then he remembers that it all started because he yelled at Mrs. Johnson.

Lincoln:"Oh yeah. That's how."

Meanwhile, the group had made it to police station and were now sneaking by, avoiding any cameras and even managing to take a few out for good measure. They were by a vent, which would be their point of entry inside.

Ashe:"Okay, guys. You remember the plan?"

All:"Yeah!"

Ronnie Anne:"(Holding bombs) Should I bother asking why you have explosions?"

Ashe:"(Nervous laughter) ...shut up."

Ronnie Anne shrugs as she sets up the bombs by sticking them to the wall. After that, they opened up an air vent and headed inside. First Ashe with Lily, then Lori, Zella, Leni, Luna, Francine, Luan, Ronnie Anne and then Diane. She did get a little stuck, but after a few seconds of swinging her legs, she was in. Meanwhile, Reginald had shown up and had walked through the front entrance. He approaches the desk officer, who doesn't give him attention as he writes down on a piece of paper.

Reginald:"I'm a friend of the Loud Family. I heard Lincoln Loud was here. I'm here to bail him out."

Cop:"Can't do that now, sir."

Reginald:"Where is he?"

Cop:"Look, it may take a while before anyone can see him. If you want to wait, there's a bench right there."

Reginald takes a look at the bench, then around the desk the officer was sitting before saying...

Reginald:"I'll be back."

And with that, he left the through the front entrance as the officer continued to right. But then, the sound of an upcoming car caught his attention, as he didn't have time to get away when one suddenly crashes through the front doors, crushing him against the desk. Reginald comes out and brings out a pair of guns as the whole police station goes on high alert. Lincoln heard that crash echo from his cell and was now worried about what was going on. But it was then, he noticed the floorboard open up, and Ashe had suddenly came up...

Ashe:"Miss me, little cousin?"

Lincoln:"ASHE!"

He doesn't waste the opportunity to tackle and hug her, causing her to fall down as she climbs out of the vent. Not just her, but others come out along with.

Apparently, Lincoln's cell is big enough to fit 11 people.

Lincoln's sisters were very much happy to be seeing their brother in one piece as Luna and Leni hug him while crying tears of joy.

Leni:"Oh, Linky! You have no idea how worried I was of you!"

Luna:"I'm never letting you out of my sight, you hear me?"

Lincoln:"I'm just so glad to see you both."

But it was then that he noticed that Ashe brought Lily along for the ride, much to Lincoln's dismay as a concern for his little sister's safety.

Lincoln:"You brought Lily?"

Ashe:"Well, yeah...Oh, was that a bad idea?"

Next, Ronnie Anne came and playfully nudged Lincoln at his shoulder.

Ronnie Anne:"Glad to see you in one piece."

Lincoln:"Thanks. But...where's Diane?"

Diane:"Grr. Not now!"

The all look to see that Diane was struggling to get out of the vent, bracing her arms against the ground as she tries to push herself up and out.

Diane:"A little help here?"

Seeing that Diane was still stuck, Ashe was about to help, but her little cousin stops her.

Lincoln:"I got this one."

Lincoln took the liberty of getting her out of there, taking both of her arms and pulling her free. Diane shows her gratitude by hugging him.

Diane:"Wow, Lincoln. I didn't know you were so strong."

Lincoln:"(blushes)"

But then, they all hear the sounds of gunfire coming from within the station. Reginald was making short work of all the police as he was making his way towards the prisoner lock up.

Ashe:"Yeah. We should probably get out of here."

Lincoln:"Are we gonna go back the way we came?"

Ronnie Anne:"(pulls out a detonator) We don't have to."

At the push of a button, the wall in the back of Lincoln's cell was blown clean off, freeing the group as they escaped from the police station.

Lincoln:"You brought explosives?!"

Ronnie Anne:"What? It was Ashe's idea."

Ashe:"(nervous smile)"

As they ran off, Lincoln noticed that Leni was carrying a giant briefcase with them.

Lincoln:"Hey, what are those for?"

Lori:"We'll tell you later."

Ashe:"Just know, we're gonna take Reginald down once and for all!"

Lincoln:"Good! Cuz I was getting real sick of that guy! And Ashe, I'm with you all the way."

Ronnie Anne:"Whatever you guys are talking about, count me in! If you're thinking about fighting, you are so gonna need me."

Meanwhile, Reginald had already made it to lockup, only to see the destroyed cell, confirming Lincoln's escaped. One injured cop tried to crawl towards him, pointing their gun, but they never got the chance to fire as Reginald put a bullet in the middle of their forehead and stormed off. It was then that he takes out a communicator and speaks into it.

Reginald:"Gather every remaining resource and scour this town. I don't care what you do, just find me those kids."
