Oh, no. It's April Fools'.
Every Loud's least favorite day of the year.
Well, everyone, except for one.
Ooh! It's Pranksmas Eve and I'm just bubbling with excitement.
Luan! Ah! Ahem. Let's hope our man with the plan
can save the Louds from getting their butts
pranked again this year.
This year's gonna be different.
Luan is not gonna prank me! Because I've got an April Fool proof plan.
You're not the only one who can make a pun, Luan!
Then, it's time for phase one, Heard the Word.
Now, find a safe place to talk. Ah ha!
Maybe they can whisper somewhere in the house.
[gasping]
Peace out. I'll be in my bunker.
Everyone else to my room! We'll be safe there.
Maybe not. How about with the Casagrandes in Great Lake City?
Pie in the fridge!
Oh boy, pie!
[laughing]
I think one family prank war's enough for the Louds to handle.
Hmm. Well, it can't be someplace Luan would ever suspect.
Cacaw, cacaw.
What animal does Mary have?
A lamb with the fleece as white snow.
[everyone] Phew.
Ah, good. It's really you, son. Are you sure Luan didn't follow you?
- Definitely. - Perfect.
And the disguises were a nice touch.
Now that the Louds are all gathered, we'll need a look out
making sure Luan isn't secretly planning something.
Clyde is a true friend.
Let's check back on him later.
Now that phase one is complete, it's time for phase two, Double Trouble.
That's where these guys come in.
We hire a bunch of stunt doubles
to take all the hits for us, and we get off pain free.
- Ah, brilliant. - That might just work.
Wow, Pete's doubles look just like us.
No, honey, those are the doubles.
Oh, well, they're good too.
Pretty convincing.
Wait, is that an old man?
I don't understand. Why is my double old?
You're 11 and you have white hair. I did the best I could.
I came out of retirement for this gig.
These days, I mostly just sit around reading in my underwear.
Never mind, he's perfect.
Ha. Guess, it checks out.
There's no way Luan is gonna get the best of the family now.
So, these doubles certainly look the part, but can they act the part?
Really get that mud up in your face. Don't be afraid to eat a little.
Now, in addition to English, I speak Mandarin,
Latin, Swedish and West Coast rap.
So, this is the novel I'm working on,
just in case Luan asks you about it,
you should probably read the whole thing tonight.
Okay, so let's see the walk.
Almost, but you forgot part of it.
Uh!
First thing in the morning,
I usually rush to the bathroom to beat the crowd.
Oh, same here!
There're some pushy blue hairs at the senior center!
Then, before school, I'll sometimes stop for a Flipee.
Watermelon Lime's my favorite.
It's my favorite flavor of gelatin!
I think they're ready.
Let's just check in on Clyde at Sunset Canyon
to make sure Luan hasn't done anything suspicious.
Hmm. Ah.
Ah! Ooh!
Sorry.
Looks like Clyde is fitting right in.
Guess it's time for phase three, Await the Date.
Now that the doubles are in place,
the Louds just have to watch the April Fools' carnage.
Oh, there's some movement in the twin's room.
Here it comes.
Huh, I thought for sure Luan was gonna nail them
with a bucket of grease.
Or a sock full of quarters.
Old Lincoln is on the move... slowing.
Oh, man, I can't watch. What's happening?
Did he get injured?
Well, he did hurt his back, but it seems unrelated.
What's the dealio? Why aren't they getting pranked?
Why are they leaving the house?
That's odd. Uh-oh. What's happening?
You know, family,
I had a whole different plan in mind for today.
But I'll save that for next year.
Because once I saw the amazing doubles you guys found,
I was inspired to do something even better.
So stay tuned.
Because the rest of this day is going to be doubly special.
[laughing]
Get it? You don't know, but you will.
This is not good.
Maybe Lincoln can call Ronnie Anne for help.
[phone ringing]
[meowing]
Oh, no! It sounds like an alley cat prank gone wrong!
Here kitty, kitty, kitty.
[meowing]
[meowing and screaming]
And Ronnie Anne's out! What are the Louds supposed to do now?
Wait! The cameras are back on!
Mrs. Johnson, it's me, Lincoln, I can't get through another day of school
without telling ya, you are the center of my universe!
And I love you!
Oh, no! Uh!
Wait! That's my pageant studio!
Hi, Lindsay. I know I won Miss Junior Royal Woods this year,
but the truth is, your neck is straighter,
your hair holds curls better than mine,
and your baton twirling puts mine to shame.
So here, this really belongs to you.
[screaming]
[gasping]
Oh, sweet irony!
We handed Luan the perfect weapons to destroy us!
Oh, no! My salon!
I love my new perm. I can't wait to show all my friends!
[screaming]
Thanks for coming all the way here to meet me, Boo Boo Bear.
I just really missed you.
Oh, that was my shoe.
That was my other shoe.
I have some extra shoes in my bag.
[screaming]
This looks like the end of the Louds in Royal Woods.
[sighing]
Guess it's time for an unexpected phase four,
Grab and Go.
Y-You guys wait, I-I'm sorry for the pranking.
Please, we can't move.
It's too late to turn back now.
Ah, no it isn't. I'll call everyone I embarrassed you guys in front of,
I'll explain everything!
It's not gonna make any difference.
So we'll see ya in the Florida Panhandle Tuesday morning.
[gasping]
No, we can't leave! Royal Woods is our home!
I'm so sorry! I'll never prank you again!"
[everyone] April Fools'!
Of course, there was a secret, secret plan.
Maybe that will teach Luan a lesson,
not to mess with the Louds on April Fools'.
[everyone] Luan!
Aw, the end of April Fools' always make me feel a little blue.
[laughing]
Get it?
I think I spoke too soon.
