The Loud House Season 2: Baby Steps/ Lock 'N' Loud

The Loud House  Nickelodeon 

         For those reading this post in January of 2019: This wraps up our look at "The Loud House" for now, more in the future.

                 Once again, dipping into season 2 of "The Loud House" with a look at couple episodes.

  Let's start with  4th episode of season 2 called "Baby Steps" what's this episode about?  It first aired in the US on January  10th 2017.



           Time to give Clyde more time and attention TV show , and that's what this episode does.  So it starts in the middle of the night where Lincoln is sleeping when he gets awoken by Clyde on the walkie talkie. Clyde tells him that his Dads are planning on having another baby now, they didn't tell him this news he suspects it because they were getting baby clothes and baby-proofing the house. (remember this line)  So, he tells Lincoln that he is going to be an older brother.   Also, I like the shot during the split screen of them taking where Lincoln has Charles the dog on his bed, and Clyde has his cat on his bed. (Remember this line later)  Lincoln says that he is the best person to talk to about being an other brother. (why? oh that's right)
is
    The next morning, Lincoln shows Clyde the best steps to being a big brother or as Lincoln calls them the 3 C's which are Confidence, Caring, and Cookies. (cookies mmm) Lincoln decides to show him these skills by example. (Lincoln is that kind of teacher)   Helping with Baby Lilly's pain he shows off the three C's in action.  Up next it's the twins fighting. Then it's the 4-year-old genius, Lisa, who has Lincoln make a  PBJ sandwich. (This later comes up in that Mad Scientist episode)  Then Lucy just need simple help on a poem rhyme.

    Now the student gets to do some experience training. Clyde puts his training into work and  if you can guess how this guess, you win something. This bad mess causes Clyde to stress out. Later, Lincoln leaves to get something while Clyde is waiting Lisa enters the room asking for help with her shoe strings which should make him skeptical (remember this line later too). Lucy asks for help with a poem rhyme a word that rhymes with Lori. (Hmm)  Remember that line above there? (Also remember the characters  mentioned plus Lilly) Well Lincoln pai d them off for them to do what they did to help Clyde.  Clyde hears this and is unhappy and decides to leave.  Lana is stuck in a tree (remember she wasn't mentioned)  and Clyde thinks she's part of the plan but she's not. He saves the day.

    Remember those details above?  Well Clyde finds out that his parents aren't getting a baby they are getting a kitten   Clyde finds that Lincoln's tips also work with cats.

       The charming thing for this episode is Lincoln showing how good a bigger brother he is to the younger ones.  The show does run from his perspective as middle child in the family and we've seen interactions where the sisters act as one, his interactions with the older ones and younger ones as well.  It's also nice to see Clyde do more in the series as well. I speak from the framing of him in season 1.   It makes a nice episode with a nice fit to it, and the ending doesn't ruin it because he learned something valuable.   I give this one a 97% out of 100.

 More after the Jump 
  The next episode is  the  12th episode of the season and it came out in February of 2017th.

           Think about your house or living space... what is one thing that seems important that we kind of place our trust into the most?  The lock , that's my answer. So this episode is about locking the door. (boring)  I put it that way it does seem a little boring but stick with me.
 
    The parents come home  and the father ,Lynn sr., notices that the door is unlocked. He tells his children to lock the door. Also there's  burglar talk too.   So the kids think the logical step is to increase security around the house. They have Bobby act as front door security while Lisa installs a security system that is dangerously scary.  Clyde and Lincoln listen to the police scanner making sure things work.  (Why Did Lisa put cameras in the bathroom? That's a bit much)

      This episode also makes me laugh with the fake burglar how Leni tries to flirt with it and Lola beats the crap out of it for 'stealing her stuff''.  Lana tries to get Charles, the dog, to be a security dog that doesn't work.  Things seem to be going well and the burglar  has been caught so the kids think that this a good time to stop security.  The door is unlocked again. The father wants them to lock the door but, they don't listen. Mr.Grouse finds out that he's been robbed and this causes the kids to put in the security measures again.  They create a home alone -style of traps.  (To kill the burglar)   Now the house looks like a state prison. Lynn Sr. tells everyone  that all they need to do is lock the door. Also, it was him who set up the fake robbery at Mr.Grouse's  who did it for muffins , which is good because it was lasagna again, Mr.Grouse is going to need help.

    The kids seemed to have  learned because Leni locks the door that the father used to get out and they think he is the burglar and they trap him. and he gets beaten up.  (oops) The kids find out that Mr.Grouse was paid off. 
     

         This is a fine episode ,it takes the simple plot and does it fun. I like how all they had to do was lock the door but instead they do everything security wise.  Mr. Loud's heart was in the right place just wanting his family to be safe and even trying to scare them with help from Mr.Grouse is a nice touch.   It's also an entertaining episode with a  great pace and some funny moments.  It gets at 97% out of 100.
