       Previously on  The Casagrandes Carl can't handle the pressure , please  don't help him. Read that here 


  Now to episode 10

   Episode 10a :Trend Game


               This  is kind of like a fad episode, you know the plot where a character or characters are somehow behind in a fad and try to join a fad to ends up never getting there. This isn't that episode but it does use that base to give a different story.  It starts with Ronnie Anne doing a backwards challenge,  and she hears that that was something from a  few months ago, and the trend now is the inchworm challenge.  (It's like using a meme that was memed out instead of a timeless one and I'm dropping 1 pt from myself for writing that)   Ronnie Anne tries to keep up but things don't work out for her because that's the point of the plot.   (Poor Laird character getting all pained)

        At home, Ronnie Anne says that in Royal Woods she was on top of trends.  (They're doing that thing where Royal Woods is like a backwater town compared to not Chicago again because reasons.) Carlota knows trends and this episode turns into a  little bonding with older girl cousin, something that they should do a little more.  Carlota shows Ronnie Anne the recent trends in montage format. (You can take Ronnie Anne out of the Loud House , but use of montage comes with her) Ronnie Anne impresses her friends with her "coolness" now.


               The friends come to her apartment and follow all the new stuff she's checking out.  Sid is there because she and her mother give lemurs  hair cuts and she's hiding causing a vengeful lemur to find her and give her a slight, kind of cool haircut.

 


             Ronnie Anne tries to ask Carlota for help but she has to figure it out herself instead. So she tries and creates her own new trends like squat walking  (I should call the inspectors for that pizza shop)   Ronnie Anne creates an ice cream cone with a fish and syrup , I do like how Sid is Sid and tries the most random new thing.  Ronnie Anne texts Carlota for help and she texts "abounded secret subway tunel party" when she meant  Band by South Bay tower party. Due to Ronnie Anne and friends being where cell phones don't work there's no message and rats chase them. Ronnie Anne admits that she doesn't actually know the latest trends  but her friends don't mind because friendship.  Then at school , the other kids around have copied Ronnie Anne's squatting thing.

           This is a good episode. I like how the episode gives a different take on the fad plot. This is really an episode about the journey more than the ending , because we know Ronnie Anne's friends were going to be nice and stuff, so the enjoyment of the episode comes from the niceness of seeing Ronnie Anne hangout with her cousin and her friends, who besides Sid, haven't appeared much before this episode.  It has some funny moments  as well, it's  7.5/10.

More after the Jump 


 Episode 10b : This Bird has Flown 

             There's an employee of the month thing at the Mercado and Bobby really wants to get it. (He doesn't want to lose to Spongebob again) From the start the episode sets up that Serigo is annoying Bobby which is a good set up to how the episode will be going later. (Why did Lori get Bobby boxers with her face on them?  I'm calling the... eh don't have time for this back to you) As Serigo gets more annoying to Bobby.  Then Sergio gets picked as employee of the month because this is sane place to be and Bobby boils over and wishes Sergio would go away and  the bird does as such. 

         The rest of the family goes sad wondering where their bird went. Bobby goes to look for him, without revealing that he told him to go away. He was going to tell them but Rosa called the cops (who have time for this)  Bobby gets help from Carl (with cash)  to rig up a fake Sergio  made of a drone with feathers, a fake head, and walkie talkie.   This actually works into the family thinking that this is the actual bird.  (I'm concerned that they are that dumb) Only dog figures  it out because he's the only smart one here. (Also taking away 0.5 pts for something I won't mention here besides excess guac)  Eventually, fake Sergio gets killed and Bobby tells the family that is  not the real Sergio. (Uhhh good?)   The real one does come back.  One month later  Bobby doesn't get employee of the month , because what is this place?

         This was the weirdest episode of this show , so far,  and it was enjoyable for it.  Not much else to add really, I give 8/10.

 That's it for now, next time we trick people into thinking a R/C car is a mouse.
