A Tattler's Tale

"" is an episode of The Loud House.

Plot
Lola wants to be a part of the siblings' secrets club, but they won't let her in because of her tattle-tale tendencies.

Synopsis
The Loud kids are having a secret meeting in Lori and Leni's room. They're discussing about their deepest secrets. Lincoln accidentally broke Dad's disco ball, Lori accidentally scratched the van with her bejeweled purse, Luna caused a citywide blackout during a jam session, and Lucy dyed Mom's wedding dress black. The kids are having a good time, and Lincoln explains to the viewers that everybody has secrets, and they need to let them loose somewhere. They thought they could tell each other, since they trust each other... except for a certain someone. Lola enters into the room so she can join them, but everybody denies her access because she's a "tattle-tale." When she tries to admit that she has changed, the siblings still deny her access, and in fury, tosses her tiara aside and yells at Mom. After spilling one more secret (Lana chewing on Dad's slippers, but blames Charles for it), the kids decide to call it a night, and head off to their own rooms to go to bed.

The next day, Lincoln wakes up, and is horrified to see Lola in his room. She's asks Lincoln if he would like to be her personal butler during her tea party. When Lincoln refuses to do so, Lola threatens him by telling Dad how he broke his disco ball. Not wanting to be tattled on, Lincoln is forced into doing Lola's favor, much to his frustration. Later that day, Lola is riding in her princess car and Lucy is sitting under the tree reading her poem book. Lola asks Lucy if she could drive the car so she can practice her pageant wave. When she denies to do so, Lola threatens to tattle on Mom for dying her dress black. Not wanting to be tattled on, Lucy is forced into doing Lola's task. Later, in the living room, Lori is on her phone, Luna is watching TV, and Dad's reading the newspaper. Lola asks Luna if she can sit in the middle of the couch, but when she denies her favor, Lola threatens to tattle on her. Because they're right next to Dad, Luna places Lola on the couch while she sits on the floor. Lola asks Lori if she can scratch her head, Lori doesn't want to do it, claiming she needs both of her hands to text. When Lola threatens to tell Dad about her accident, Lori is forced to do Lola's bidding. By now, Lola has forced all of her siblings into doing favors for her, such as Lana being her partner in her tea party, Lisa making the alphabet out of macaroni, Luna playing medieval music, Luan being her jester (by telling even worse jokes), and Lynn painting her toenails. Lola enjoys their service, but they don't.

That night, the kids are complaining about Lola. If they deny any of her requests, she'll tell Mom and Dad their secrets. Eventually, they get suspicious when they figure that someone is snitching on them. This results in the kids fighting. During their squabble, Lincoln falls out and notices Lola's tiara, which has a microphone attached to it. Realizing this, Lincoln orders the girls to stop fighting, saying that he knows who the real snitch is. It is revealed that when Lola tossed her tiara aside the night before, the microphone had caught everything the kids said. Lincoln suggests that if they want to get back at Lola, they must find a secret about her.

The next day, as Lisa, Luna and Lynn pamper to Lola, Lincoln uses this distraction to snoop around Lana and Lola's room, hoping find some dirt on Lola. Unfortunately, Lola is one step ahead of Lincoln, as every location he looks has a note saying that she would never leave a secret and to tell the reader to get out of her room. When Lincoln picks up one of Lola's tiaras and asks himself how Lola does it, he is warned that Lola is heading back into her room. This forces Lincoln to jump out the window. The Loud's neighbor, Mr. Grouse, sees Lincoln wearing Lola's tiara and asks him if he's going to participate in a beauty pageant. This inspires Lincoln to head to the pageant hall and ask Lola's competitors if they know any dirt on her. Unfortunately, Lola's competitors are too scared to give Lincoln anything. Lincoln notices one of Lola's competitors in the closet. She knows a secret about Lola due to her deep malice towards Lola. She tells Lincoln the secret, who in turn, tells the other sisters. The sisters are so flabbergasted at this fact, that they decide to tell it to Lola. Lola is shocked, because if she ever tells Mom and Dad about their secrets, Lincoln and the others will tattle on her too.

That night, as the Loud kids have another meeting, Luan tells the others that she just saw Lola entering Mom and Dad's room. Fearing that Lola is tattling on them, they quickly head downstairs, and notice Lola sadly walking out of their room. Lola glumly tells her siblings that she decided to take the blame for all the things they did, which allows them to get off the hook, but also got herself grounded for the next 30 days. When they ask Lola why she did this, Lola says that all she wanted was to join them, and she made them do those favors just so she can be close to them. Lola then excuses herself, intending to stay in her room for the next 30 days, while her sibling look on in disappointment.

As Lola lays on her bed (in a style similar to a prison cell), Lincoln invites himself into her room, saying that after a lot of thinking, and feeling sorry for her, she's allowed to be in the club. This causes Lola to jump off her bed in excitement. As the other sisters enter the room and tell their secrets, Lola looks on with pride, knowing that she's finally one with the group. Later, as the sisters leave, Lola proceeds to tell her stuffed dolls her siblings' secrets, telling the viewers that she's Lola Loud, she has to spill some secrets somehow.
