- [yawns]
Morning, Dads!

- Morning, sweetie. Arms up.

Now, now, don't want you
falling off the stool

and cracking your noggin.

- Yeah,
leave the cracking to me.

[laughing]

- So, Clyde, is there anything
you wanted to do this weekend?

Ooh, we could do CPR training.

- Well, actually,

Zach's watching this new movie
about a family of crows

who organize and take over--

- Whoa, that sounds
pretty scary.

Plus, it could trigger
your crow phobia.

Harold, you wanna weigh in
here?

- Dad's right, honey.

Is there anything else
you wanted to do?

- Um...

- Clyde, they're hot!

- Lincoln's pulling
a video game all-nighter.

Can I join him?

- Well, even if it's the
weekend,

you still have a
bedtime, kiddo.

- [sighs]
I guess CPR training it is.

- Clyde, no, not the hot sauce!
You'll burn your mouth!

[whispering] I thought
we locked this up!

- [grumbles]

- So you can't come over
for the all-nighter?

Bummer.

Now Rusty gets to invite
his cousin Randy.

That guy always
double-dips the salsa.

- I'm sorry.

Sometimes my dads
kind of drive me crazy.

They watch my every move!
I never have any freedom.

Just once, I'd love to stay up
late and eat a pickle!

- Wait, you can't eat pickles?

- One guy in the s dies

from a freak
pickle-choking accident

and now I can never have one.

RIP, Jebediah Gladstone.
[smooches]

- Maybe if your dads had
something to distract them,

they'd be less focused on you.

Hey, look!

Why don't you get them
another pet?

Liam's giving away
baby chicks again.

- I don't know.

My cats are born hunters.

You should've seen what they
did to my dad's bunny slippers.

[shivers audibly]

But this could work!



- Clyde, watch your eyes!

I've got
the pressure cooker out.

- So I had an idea I wanted to
run past you guys.

How 'bout we host a
Brazilian exchange student?

His name's Tiago
and he's in my grade.

- Wow, Clyde.
What inspired this?

- I just thought
it would be fun.

Plus, I've always wanted
to know more

about Brazilian culture.

- I don't know.

This is a big responsibility,

and we wouldn't wanna take time
away from you.

- [scoffs] I've had
your undivided love

and support for years.

I can stand to share
for a few weeks.

- Well, if you're sure--
- Great!

'Cause I already signed up.
[doorbell rings]

[gasps] That must be him.
I got it.

- Oi! I'm Tiago.
Nice to meet you.

- Hi, Tiago. I'm Clyde.

[grunts]
- Sorry, Clyde.

I am a hugger.

You, too, Dads! Get over here!
[all grunt]

- Welcome.
It's good to have you.

- These are gifts for you.

Carnival costumes.

We wear them
to dance the samba.

- Maybe you guys
can try these on

and Tiago can show you
a few steps.

I'll leave you to it.

[whistling]

Pickle time.

My tastes buds
are already dancing.

[cat meows]

Oh, I get it.

You guys want a
little freedom too.

[cat meows]

- Clyde, are you eating
pickles?

- [shouts]
- And are the kitties

eating treats?

[cats slurping]

- Uh, no, Dads.

We're just, uh,
making a cheese tray!

Gouda or Swiss?

- Ooh, how about both?

And don't forget
the water crackers.

- They're still not
distracted enough.

We've gotta try and get them
out of the house with Tiago.

Now, where
are those water crackers?

- Uh-- [grunts, groans]

- Morning, Clyde!

- Morning, everyone.

Dads, I was thinking,

why don't you take
Tiago on a grand tour

of Royal Woods today?

Maybe stop for a picnic?

- What a great idea.

We can grab a Flippee,

rent paddleboats
at Tall Timbers Pond,

tour the paper plant...
- [gasps]

- I'd love to come along,

but someone needs to stay home
and, uh, cat-sit!

both: Huh?

- You know how those
stinkers like

to un-pot the plants
while we're gone.

Bad cat. No, no.

- [meows irritably]

- Clyde's right.
We can't leave the cats alone.

- Great! Have fun.

And now, to watch
"Crow-mageddon." [smooches]

- But we can't leave Clyde
alone either.

- I know.

Let's call our cat-sitter,
Francois.

Then Clyde can come along.
How's that sound, sweetie?

- And what's behind your back?

- Uh, nothing!

[crow caws]
Francois. Great.

- Clyde,
where's your mosquito hat?

You never know when there's
gonna be a bug outbreak.

- Here's a little Royal Woods
history.

The Pony Express used to cut
through this very park.

Here's some petrified manure
to prove it, hmm?

Oh, oh, no. Just a pine cone.
[laughs]

- Aw, what are we gonna do
with all these extra pickles?

- Guess we'll just
throw them away.

- Hey, Dads, I'm just gonna
take a short walk,

stretch my legs.

[yelps]

Let's hope this works.

[sneaky music]
Hey, Dads, can we talk?

I'm worried about Tiago.
I think he's homesick.

- What makes you say that?

- Well, I saw him hugging his
carnival costume

and looking sad.

But you know what might help?

A little quality time with
the two greatest dads I know.

Bing and bang.

I'd love to join,

but I think that some
one-on-one time

would do him a load of good.

- Well, all right then.

[bottles squirting]

- Oh, look
how well he hides it.

- Have fun, guys!

Freedom and pickles!

[upbeat country music]



[burps]

[angry cawing]

[cats hissing]

Oh, yeah! ♪

♪ Yeah, free

♪ What I am!
Freedom! ♪

[laughs] Oh, yeah!



[sauce sizzling]

[laughing]

[smack, distressed meow]

[door creaks,
Clyde gasps]

- Clyde, we're home.

- [yawns]
Oh, hey, Dads.

We were just getting an early
jump on our bedtime.

- [meows hazily]

- How'd it go tonight?
- Great.

You were right.

Tiago really needed some
one-on-one time.

- He told us all about
his life in Brazil

and how he hopes to be

a professional
samba dancer one day.

- It sounds like you guys are
really bonding.

Who knows? Maybe you could even
visit him in Brazil someday.

- Now, there's a fun idea.

- [yawns]
Morning, Dads.

Have you seen my hat--

Dads? Tiago?

[mysterious music]

Hmm? Well, I'm sure they
at least left my breakfast

in the microwave.

- [meows]
- It doesn't matter.

I'll just stop at
Flip's for a breakfast Flippee.

Dads, I'm home!

My homework's ready
if you wanna check it.

Really? They're gone again?

And no note this time.

Guess they don't care
if I get into college.

[samba music playing]

[all laughing and humming]

- [growls]
I can't believe this.

First they forget
my breakfast burrito,

then they leave
without writing me a note,

and now they're doing
whatever that is

when they're supposed to be
giving me my weekly haircut.

Just look at how long
my bangs are.

- Tiago, do your bangs
need a trim?

- Oh, come on!



- [meows]

- Dads, we need to talk!

Really? They're gone again?

What? Why did they go
to the airport?

[terrifying musical sting]

And their suitcases are gone?

Maybe you could even visit him
in Brazil someday.

- Now, there's a fun idea.

- [gulps]
I don't feel so good.

[ominous music]

Lincoln! I've got an emergency,
and there's no code for it!

- [snoring]
- Hey!

- [shouts]
- Lincoln! Lincoln!

- Clyde, I'm here! What is it?

- My dads and Tiago are flying
to Brazil

and they left me behind!

Who knows when or if
they're coming back?

- Clyde, no offense,
but that sounds a little nuts.

- Lincoln, buddy, I don't need
you to fight me on this.

I just need a favor.

[exciting music]

Thanks for the help, guys!

- Good luck, buddy.

So should we stop
for breakfast?

- [snores]

[horn blares]

- [panting]

Dads, wait! I don't want
you to go to Brazil!

- Clyde, what is it?
- What's going on?

- I only asked if we
could host Tiago

because I wanted
a little freedom.

But I never wanted you guys
to forget about me!

I love you and I need you and
I miss spending time with you.

- Clyde, there's been a huge
misunderstanding. [chuckles]

We aren't going to Brazil.
Tiago is!

- All that dance practice
we did paid off.

T got accepted into
samba school in Rio.

Class starts tomorrow.

So he had to take
the first flight out.

- But your suitcases were gone.

- Well,
someone liked Flippees so much

that we decided to send him
back with a few suitcases full.

[goo drips]

- Dad and I would never forget
about you.

We were just trying to give you
more space.

It seemed like
that's what you wanted.

- You mean, you could tell?

[giggles bashfully]

- And you may have had less
freedom than you thought.

[electronic ding]

[bluesy rock music,
Clyde singing]

- [gasps]
You mean you were watching me

the whole time?

Thank you! I love you!

- We love you too.
- Oh, we love you too.

- So long, T.

Good luck
with your samba school.

- Uh, there is no samba school.

Don't get me wrong.
Your dads are lovely people.

But they are a bit intense,
even for me.

I don't know how you do it,Clyde.

- Honestly, I wouldn't
have it any other way.

- If you're ever in Brazil,
look me up, Clyde.

Tchau-tchau!
[bones crunch]

- [struggling] Tiago,
you're gonna miss your plane.

- [kisses]
Bye, Clyde!

- Bye!

- Here you go, Clyde.

While you wait for
your breakfast to cool.

- [gasps]
Is this for real?

- Mm-hmm. But chew carefully.

- This is for you, Jebediah.

[crunch]

[alarm bells ring]
- [screams]

Pickle juice!
- [screams]

[body thumps, cat yowls]

- Gosh, I guess
they really are dangerous.

[peppy music]



- Introducing your new
Little Miss Sunbeam!

- Oh, thank you, thank you.

This is the most beautiful
crown I've ever--

- Lola? Lola, phone.

Someone from the Little Miss
Sunbeam pageant?

- [gasps]

[grunting]

Hello?

This is Lola Loud,
your future Little Miss--

what?
My application's been denied?

[whining] Why?

You got my headshot,
didn't you?

The holographic preview
of my evening gown?

What could I have
possibly missed?

Community service?!

So apparently Little Miss
Sunbeam must be beautiful

"inside and out."

How am I gonna clock ten hours

of goody-two-shoes time
by Saturday?

- You could pick up trash.
I know some great spots.

- Hmm, you could volunteer at
the library, reshelving books.

- Lisa, you know I can't use
my inside voice for that long!

[screams]

- What about being a new
student buddy at school?

Cheryl in the office is always
looking for volunteers.

- Lincoln, that is a terrible--
wait.

Actually, that doesn't
sound too bad.

- Ooh, we are just delighted to
have you on board, Lola.

Meet our newest new student,
Meli Ramos.

- There you are! Hi!

Welcome to
Royal Woods Elementary.

- [mumbling unintelligibly]

- What was that, sweetie?

- I noticed you
on the playground earlier.

- You guys will not believe the
crazy dream I had last night.

[excited whispering]
- Shh, Lola's got a story.

- So there I was, surrounded
by fire-breathing dragons,

armed with nothing
but a nail file.

- You seem
so confident and popular.

Do you think you could help me,
um,

figure out
how to fit in too?

- Aww. Of course.

I know all the secrets
to social success.

Everyone is going to love you.
- [giggles]

- And those pageant judges are
going to love me.

[bell rings]
- Okay, for starters,

you wanna get yourself noticed.

Get people, you know,
talkin' about you.

- Oh, I'm really just
trying to blend in.

- Oh, no, no, no.

Why blend in when
you can make an entrance?

[laughs]
Wait for it.

- Good morning, class.
Hmm, where's Lola?

[loud techno music playing]

[all cheering]
- Go, sis! Go, sis!

- Thank you, thank you.
So kind, so kind.

[enamored sighing]

Fun, right?

You should try
something like that tomorrow.

- Oh, I--I don't know
about that.

- Maybe we could have you
delivered

to the classroom
in a gift basket.

Then you could pop
out during a quiz.

I was gonna do that next week,
but you can totally have it.

- [whimpers]

[bell rings]

- Now, lunch seating is a key
part of social success.

Where to sit today?

- [whinnies]
- [moos]

- [gasps]
Ooh, I brought my ponies too.

Maybe we should sit with them.

- [chuckling] Oh, honey, no.

Those are kindergarteners.

We should aim a little higher.

Like those cool fourth graders
by the water fountain.

[rock music]

- [gulps]
Do you know them?

- Nope.
But that never stops me.

Just watch and learn.

[laughing hysterically]
That was hilarious.

You guys saw it too, right?

- What was she talking about?
- What did she see?

[hysterical laughter]

[rock music]
- Take a seat, kid.

You should hang with us.

[bell rings]

[kids laughing]

- [squeals]
Finally. Recess.

- Maybe we could spend it
in the library?

I think I saw a copy of the new
Dachshund Detective book.

- The library? No.
No, no, no, no, no.

Okay, come on,
we're going to the playground.

It's time to teach you
another one of my secrets.

Don't just play the game.
Be the game.

[kids laughing]

[whistle blows]

Okay, everybody.
Time to play Lola Tag.

[cheering]

The slides are safe zones,
the mulch is lava,

and you can only run
backwards.

Oh, unless you skip.

Ready? Go!
[cheering]

Okay, I'm gonna go catch
everyone.

Start making up your own game
for when I get back.

- Oh, um--
- Bye.

- [whimpers]

Thanks for inviting me over,
Lola.

- My pleasure.

I thought we could play
my favorite game:

fashion makeover!

Hmm. Now, don't get me wrong.
Love the gray.

It's very...European.

But have you ever thought about
something a little more

"look at me"?

- You mean like a ponytail?

- A ponytail? [scoffs] No.

I mean like this.

[gasps]
You're like a butterfly.

A beautiful social butterfly
ready to take flight.

I think our work here is done.

[cheers and applause]

- Geez, Lola, I can't believe
you're missing a field trip

to Dairyland for a pageant.

- Some crowns are worth making
sacrifices for.

- Okay, Ms. Lana, let's get
you on the bus.

And remember our rule
for Dairyland.

- Oh, man.

both: Gum in the dirt
is not dessert.

[tap on window]

- I'm so glad you're here.

I was nervous I'd have to spend

the whole day
at Dairyland by myself.

- Oh, yeah.

Um, actually, I'm not
going to Dairyland.

I'm on my way to the
Little Miss Sunbeam pageant.

- [murmurs sadly]

- But what do you have
to be nervous about?

You look great.

And besides, I taught you
all my social secrets.

- Well, yeah, and you make it
all look so easy.

But I don't think
I can pull it off.

- Oh, what a cute outfit.

Lola has one just like it.

We better get going, sweetie.

You know how vicious
those pageant parents are

about their precious
parking spots.

- Hmm.

Oh, you'll be fine.

Chin up and do
that laughing thing.

[kissing]
Step on it, Mom.

[tires squeal]

[ballet music]



[crowd gasps]



[cheers and applause]
- Oh, what a twirl.

Such talent.
Let's see if the judges agree.

[cheers and applause]

- [gasps]
[giggles]

- Way to go, Lola. I think that
was your best ribbon dance yet.

- Thanks, Mommy.

[phone chimes]
- Oh.

Aww, how cute.

Look at this photo your teacher
sent from Dairyland.

Doesn't Lana look adorable
in her little udder hat?

- Uh, where's Meli?

- Excuse me!
Crown coming through.

- Wow. So sparkly.

- [gasps]
Stunning!

This gown is even better than
the holographic preview.

[ominous music]

[splat]
- [whimpers]

[kids laughing]

- You two are good.

Sorry, you need
two to ride, kid.

- Wait, who are we missing?

[gasps]
There she is.

- [excited gasp]
- Lana, get in here.

- I found a candy apple
on the ground!

- Miss Loud? Miss Loud?

[cheers and applause]

- Oh, right. Sorry.

[smooches]

[exhales]

Get your head back
in the game, Lols.

Meli is probably having a great
time at Dairyland.

You just have a dramatic
imagination.

But, maybe I should check in
with Lana, just to be sure.

Mom, can I use your phone?

[phone rings]
- What's up, sis?

Wishing you'd come here
instead of

prancing around in some
pinchy shoes?

- No, I was just wondering how
everyone was doing.

You; Tippy the Cow;
that new girl, Meli.

- Meli? Uh, hard to say.

She's been in the bathroom
pretty much the whole time.

Maybe she had one of the new
blue cheese milkshakes.

[chuckles]
They'd make anyone go.

- No.
I know why she's in there.

And it's all my fault.

Thanks, Lana.[sighs]

- Whoa! Mom didn't say anything
about cheese curds.

[eagle cries]
Aw, man. Come on!

[judges mumbling]

- [sighs]

- Excuse me, Miss Loud,

but the judges haven't finished
tabulating their scores yet--

[yelps]
- I would like

to disqualify myself
from this pageant.

[all gasp]

- But why? You were a shoo-in.

- It doesn't matter.

I didn't fulfill the community
service requirement.

I was supposed to help someone,
but I only helped myself.

[sad music]

Good-bye, sweet crown.

Mom, how fast can we get
to Dairyland?

[urgent music]

Meli? Meli!

- [sniffling and crying]

- Meli, I'm so sorry.

- Lola, don't.
The floor's gross.

- No. I'm gross.

I was supposed
to help you fit in,

but instead of listening
to what you needed,

I told you a bunch of junk that
probably only works for me,

all so I could check off a
requirement for the pageant.

- Oh, I see.

Well, did you win?

- I dropped out.

I didn't deserve
to have that crown.

And I didn't want you to have
a bad time at Dairyland.

This place is actually
really fun.

Wanna go on a ride?
Maybe split a candy apple?

- That sounds nice.

- But first, I got you this.

- [gasps]
My favorite color.

[upbeat music]

[screaming and laughing]

- Meli, this is Armen.
He's into ponies too.

- TinyTrot's my fave.

- Abigail, have you met Meli?

I think you guys both like
those doggy investigator books.

- Have you read the one where
he busts the chinchilla?

- So good.

[milk squirting]

[bell dings]

- Nice one.

- And that's the way
the cookie crumbles.

Nice work, kid.
Which prize do you want?

- Here, Lola. You deserve this.

- [gasps]
A cheese crown?

This is the most beautiful
crown I have ever worn.

[chomp]
Lana!

- Sorry.
