Chapter 45: Hand Me Down Loud

Here is a parody of the episode: Hand Me Down Ed.

There's some real changes with this one, but some things are still the same too. And this is probably one of the funniest EEnE episodes. I hope you enjoy

It is a peaceful summer day in Royal Woods; the sun is beating down, birds are chirping, and everything seems to be just as it should. As we view the skyline, a boomerang whizzes past. It circled over to the neighborhood, slowly going lower and lower. Lucy is under a tree, writing a poem. "Red like blood, dark as night. Take me to a place that's devoid of light."

Then a basketball bounced over to Lucy, it was Lynn's. Lynn walked over to get it. "Hey Luce, wanna play a game of hoops?"

"No. Can't you see I'm writing a poem here?"

"Ugh, why do you gotta be so gloomy all the time? Why can't you be more cheerful?" Lynn walked away with her ball.

"I can be cheerful in my own way." Lucy said to herself. "She just doesn't get me."

That's when the goth spotted the boomerang in the bushes, which had apparently finished its descent and landed there. Lucy picked it up. "A boomerang. Wicked."

Then she suddenly felt a strange transformation overtake her. Lucy looked completely happy with a big smile on her face. She had turned into a happy go lucky optimist. She skipped over to her sporty sister. "Hi Lynn! Can I join you in a game of basketball? It looks so much fun! Can I? Can I? Can I?"

"What's gotten into you?"

"What do you mean? I just want to play a game of hoops with my older sister."

"Ok, are you pulling this cheery act because I said you were gloomy?"

"I don't know what you're talking about. But you look like you could use a hug!" Lucy hugged Lynn. Lynn was a bit freaked out by this.

"Ok, that's enough." She pushed Lucy off her and Lucy let go of the boomerang, making the goth revert back to normal.

"Ugh, I feel weird." Lucy moaned.

"Wait, where'd you get this boomerang?" Lynn picked it up and underwent a transformation. She looked timid and was shaking. She had turned into a cowardly wimp. And she was shaking when Fangs flew on top of Lucy.

"Lynn? What's wrong?"

"B-b-b-Bat!" Lynn pointed in fear.

Fangs flew in front of Lucy. "That's just Fangs. You've never been afraid of him. Mostly."

"Ew, ew, ew! Get him away from me!" Lynn ran off, terrified, but tripped over a roller skate causing the boomerang to fly out of her hand and through the house window. Lynn got up and rubbed her head. "Ugh...what just happened?"

The boomerang landed on the couch. Lola walked by and noticed it. "Did Lana get a new boomerang?" She grabbed it and started twitching, undergoing a transformation. "My nose feels itchy."

She started scratching her nose. "Oh yeaaaah, that's the spot." Then she picked her nose. The pageant girl had turned into a pig pen, like Lana.

Meanwhile, in Leni's room, Lincoln, Leni, and Clyde are getting ready to start a hair styling business. Leni held out a tube of "Glamorous Gel." "See? My favorite hair gel, Lincoln."

"That's great, Leni." Lincoln said and took the gel, putting it in a suitcase. "I think this hair product business will be a success."

"Yeah, thanks for the help Leni." Clyde said.

"You're totes welcome."

"Now let's get to work." Lincoln said.

The three kids walked out of the room. Lola is outside playing in the mud, boomerang still in her hand. Lana came over.

"Lola? Are you playing in the mud?"

"Yeah, so what? I've always loved mud! Even the taste!" Lola had mud in her mouth.

Lana looked worried. "...Lola, are you feeling okay? Did you hit your head or something?"

"No, I feel fine."

"Wait, is that a new boomerang?" Lana took the boomerang from Lola. "Definitely looks different."

Lana's body began to twitch as she transformed. Lola was back to normal, and was shocked to see herself covered in mud.

"Why am I all muddy?!"

"Sounds like you need a bath." Lana said. The boomerang was now in her pocket. "Luckily, I came prepared." Lana took out a bucket full of water and a sponge. She had become a neat freak, like Lola.

"Uh, Lana?" Lola was shoved into the bucket of water and Lana began to clean her. Lincoln, Clyde, and Leni were about to head out.

"I should've worn my business suit for this."

"Or at least a bow tie." Leni said.

Suddenly, Lola ran inside with Lana chasing after her. Lola was still a little muddy. "Help me!"

"Come back here, Lola! I just want to clean you!" Lana held the sponge in her arm.

"Well, that's very hygienic of you, Lana." Leni said surprised.

"Well, I gotta make sure this house is rid of filth and germs." Lana said, as she wiped the boomerang. "And that includes the filth from Lola."

"Since when do you care about a clean environment?" Clyde questioned.

"Since I was born." Lana said, like that was obvious. Then she took out a can of disinfectant spray and sprayed it all over the living room, covering the area with a disinfectant spray cloud. The other kids coughed and ran out of the house. "Now to finish cleaning Lola."

Lana ran off into the dining room, where Lola had blocked the entrance with barbed wire. But that didn't stop Lana from coming through. "Aha! I'm gonna get you Lola!"

She went over the barbed wire, but the boomerang got caught on a wire and Lana tried to catch Lola. The boomerang flew out of her pocket, and she reverted back to normal. The boomerang ricocheted and flew through a window. Luna is in the backyard, playing an acoustic guitar and singing. The boomerang flew into her open mouth. She took it out.

"Hey, who threw this?" She got no reply, but a transformation occurred and she began to sing opera. She clamped a hand over her mouth, surprised. When this stopped the flow of the song, she took her hand away. Almost immediately, she began to sing again. Lori is in the kitchen, searching through the fridge. Luna came in, singing loudly. Lori covered her ears, cringing. Soon enough, Lori got annoyed and pushed Luna back outside. The boomerang dropped out of her hand.

"Geez, since when did Luna turn into one of those stuffed-shirt blowhard singer types? The girl literally gave me a headache!"

"Thank you Lori." Luna said, relieved.

Then Lori noticed the boomerang and picked it up. "What's this stupid thing?"

Her body twitched as she transformed, then Lisa entered the kitchen.

"Lori, I require your assistance." Lisa saw Lori acting like a maid, and wearing the boomerang as a hair tie. She was dusting with one hand and mopping with the other. The eldest sister had turned into a motherly maid.

"Of course, Lisa. How can I help my dear precious little sister?"

"Um, may I ask why you're wearing a boomerang on your head, Lori?"

"I just thought it would make a nice accessory."

"...Anyway, I need you to be my test subject for my latest invention."

"Anything for my wonderful siblings." Lori hugged Lisa, as Lisa was confused by Lori's behavior.

"Lori, you're awfully affectionate today."

Lori and Lisa are now in Lisa and Lily's room. Lori is sweeping the floor.

"Lori, I did not request for you to clean my room." Lisa said.

"Oh it's alright, just think of me as your loyal maid." Lori said happily.

"Um...whatever you say, maid. But I still need you to test out my invention.

Lori was done cleaning. "Ok, sure."

Lisa took out her new invention, which looked like a metal helmet, with lightbulbs on it. "Behold, my latest creation: The Hair-Styler-o-Matic. It will provide you with any hairstyle you desire. I could really use your opinion on this."

"That literally sounds amazing! I'd be glad to try that."

"But first, I advise you to take off that "hair accessory."

"Oh, right." Lori took the boomerang off and tossed it on the floor, causing her to revert back to normal.

"Are you ready, "loyal maid?"

"Ready for what? And did you just call me "maid"? Like I'd ever agree to be your maid!"

"But you just said-"

"I don't know what you're up to but I want no part of it." Lori left the room. Lily and Lisa were left confused by Lori's sudden change of behavior. Lily babbles.

"Yes Lily, that was strange." Lisa said. Then she noticed the boomerang and picked it up. "Uh, Lori? You forgot your boomerang!"

As expected, Lisa began to transform too. She put on a goofy grin with her tongue sticking out. "Lily, I found a back scratcher."

Lisa scratched her back with the boomerang and laughed stupidly. Lily looked concerned, wondering why her genius sister was suddenly acting like a doofus. Luan came out of her room and saw Lisa drawing on the wall.

"Lisa! Drawing on the wall again? I thought you were more mature than that!"

Lisa showed her the drawing. "Look Luanny, I drew a horsey."

The drawing was a crudely stick figured creature that didn't really look like a horse, more like a spider. Then Lisa stuck the crayon up her nose.

"Lisa, are you feeling well?" Luan asked with concern. "You're acting more like a bonehead than an egghead." Luan laughed. Then Lisa laughed, before looking confused. "What's so funny?"

"You know Lisa, you seem a lot more childlike today."

"That's because I'm a toddler. Hey, do you wanna play with this back scratcher?"

"I believe that's a boomerang, but sure." Luan took it. "We can use it as a frisbee."

Lisa reverted back to normal and Luan began to twitch as she transformed too. Luan now looked gloomy and depressed. "Sigh. Hi Lisa."

Lisa noticed her stoic tone. "Luan, are you alright?"

"Well, there's too much brightness in my life, I have ten noisy siblings, and these braces feel uncomfortable. But other than that, I'm peachy."

"Hmm...wait, why is there a crayon in my nose?" Lisa took it out. "Something strange is going on here. That boomerang. It must have something to do with that boomerang."

"What are you talking about?" Luan asked.

"Well, I've noticed Lori was acting differently when she had it. And so are you. Luan, could you do me a favor and drop it?"

"Um, okay…" Luan dropped it and went back to normal. She spoke in her normal, upbeat tone. "What's up, Lis?"

"Luan, pick that boomerang up."

"Um, okay. Now what?" Luan picked it up, and instantly went back to goth mode. "Siiiiiiigh."

"Aha! This may sound strange, but I've come to the conclusion that the boomerang is affecting anyone who has a hold of it, somehow altering their personality."

Luan just looked at Lisa like she was crazy.

"Wait right there, Luan."

"Sigh."

Lisa went back into her bedroom, where Lily was trying on the Hair-Styler-o-Matic. She took it off and now had a long strand of curly hair.

"Don't play with that, Lily." Lisa took out a claw grabber and went back to Luan. Lisa used the claw grabber to take the boomerang so she wouldn't get affected again. "Thanks Luan." Lisa went back to her room. Luan reverted back to normal. "Uh, thanks for what?"

Back in the room, Lisa put the boomerang in one of her other inventions: a teleportation machine. "I shall send this object far away from here, for the greater good."

Lisa started up the machine, and the boomerang was being transported somewhere else.

The boomerang ended up in a bush in someone's lawn. Lincoln, Clyde, and Leni are seen walking by, and are about to arrive at a house to sell hair products.

"Ok, here it is, Mrs. Johnson's house." Lincoln pointed at his 5th grade teacher's house. "You guys act natural and I'll do all the talking."

"Got it." Clyde said. They continued walking, and that's when Clyde noticed the boomerang. "Odd. Isn't that the same boomerang Lana had earlier today?"

Clyde got Leni's attention. "What was that, Clyde?"

"Leni, isn't that Lana's boomerang?"

"Boomer-what?"

"Certainly you've heard of a boomerang, Leni. Its magnificent aerodynamic properties allow it, when thrown, to rotate a distance and return to the initial place of where it was thrown. Used primarily by natives who believed it to possess supernatural powers. Amusing, don't you think?" Clyde walked off. Leni, meanwhile, stared at the boomerang for a few seconds and then picked it up.

"Supernatural?" A transformation occurred to the blonde girl. She now has nerdy glasses and is using a typewriter. "Chasing Phantoms: A Dissertation on Unifying Field Theory and its Effect on Leptons and Quasars. By Leni Marie Loud."

Clyde stood there shocked. Leni has suddenly become a genius. Excited, Clyde goes over to Lincoln, who's about to ring Mrs. Johnson's doorbell.

"Lincoln, come quick! You're not gonna believe this!"

"What the heck are you doing over there?" Lincoln said annoyed. "The sales over here!"

Leni cleaned her glasses. "...and anyway, I balk at the results. Total molecular dissipation. Do you concur?"

"Ahem." Lincoln was behind them.

"Lincoln, did you hear that?" Clyde said thrilled. "Leni has finally found her intellect! I theorize that in puberty, a hormonal imbalance has unclogged her-"

"All I hear is a couple of slackers!"

Leni pointed at Lincoln with the boomerang. "Hostility is the calling card of a weak intellect."

Lincoln grabbed the boomerang. "Weak intellect, huh?!" The transformation occurred. Leni goes back to normal, scattering her papers around and rolling on the ground, happy and laughing.

"Hey guys, check this out!" Lincoln had a mischievous look on his face, and he used a slingshot to fire a shampoo bottle at Mrs. Johnson's house. The boomerang was in his pocket. He broke a flower pot. "Bullseye!"

"Why is Lincoln acting like a troublemaking punk?" Clyde wondered.

Leni noticed this. "And what's he doing with my Glamorous Gel?"

Lincoln was about to fire the gel bottle.

"Lincoln, stop! What's gotten into you?" Clyde took the suitcase away from Lincoln.

"What? I'm just having some fun."

"Gimme that!" Clyde took the bottle from Lincoln.

"Ok Mr. Goody-Two Shoes, I won't use the hair gel. I'll use this boomerang instead."

Clyde took the boomerang and slingshot from Lincoln. "Guys, there's something very fishy going on here."

A transformation took over Clyde. Lincoln is no longer a troublemaker, and is back to the mature and charming boy we know.

"What's Clyde twitching about?" Lincoln said.

Clyde is sweating profusely. "Man, is it hot or what?"

Lincoln took back the suitcase. "Get over it. We've got hair products to sell."

"Chill bro, I'm sizzling in this heat." Clyde removed his shoes and socks. "Au natural. The man's uniform is crimping my style."

Clyde removed his shirt and threw it at Lincoln, who was disturbed by his friend's current behavior. Clyde has become a laid back naturist. "Mother Nature and me got a thing goin' on."

Lincoln grew fearful. "This ain't right!"

Clyde wiggles out of his pants and sighed with relief. "Right on!"

"WHO ARE YOU?!" Lincoln was creeped out. He ran by, holding the suitcase over his eyes. As he went past, he grabbed the boomerang from Clyde. "Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!"

Clyde looked down and realized he was naked. "What the ding dang heck is going on here?! I'm naked!"

"Not quite yourself there, huh kiddo?" Leni said to Clyde.

Lincoln is a troublemaker once again, and this time he's squirting hair gel all over someone's car. "That's one way to give a car wash, for free. Hey guys, you should try this!"

"I'm not moving from this spot!" Clyde said, shaking.

"Lincoln, you behave yourself." Leni scolded. "Why don't you just play with this boomerang in your pocket?"

"Oh, good idea."

Leni took the boomerang out of Lincoln's pocket. Lincoln instantly went back to normal, while Leni became smart once again. She examined the boomerang.

"I feel an analysis is in order to determine the vessel's quantity of magnitude and direction." Leni threw the boomerang, instantly reverting back to normal.

Clyde freaked out. "WHAT'S HAPPENING TO US?!"

"Hinky dinky parlez vous!" Leni watched the boomerang fly away.

"What happened to all the hair gel?!" Lincoln wondered, noticing the empty hair gel bottles.

"Here comes the boomerang!" Leni pointed to the returning boomerang. The boomerang hit her, knocking her backwards.

"I'm so confused!" Clyde panicked. Leni and the boomerang run into Clyde.

"Who emptied out all the hair gel?!" The boomerang ran into Lincoln as well. It continued to carry, only stopping when it ran into a tree, pinning the kids to it. The three of them are all stuck to a tree branch. One by one, they undergo their transformations.

"What an inane, inchoate, and inefficacious journey this has been." Intelligent Leni said.

"You're such a nerd." Troublemaker Lincoln mocked.

"I'm getting the need to feel the breeze between my knees." Naturist Clyde sweated and removed his underwear. "That's the ticket."

"Come on, man! That's naughty even for me!" Lincoln covered his eyes.

Leni frowned. "Distasteful dullard!"
