User blog:AustinDR/Review: The Loudest Mission: Relative Chaos

Well, I was right. It took a while, but I called it. Anyway, I loved the episode. Basically what happens in the episode is that Ronnie Anne and Bobby were going to visit their relatives for 2 days. However, their mother was secretly planning on having them move in out of regret with leaving her children at home often. Can Lori and Lincoln figure out a way to get their mother to reconsider?

Now, this was a pretty emotional episode; Lori is clearly in distraught that Bobby will be living in a different state - and he's pretty eager about working in a grocery store - and there's the fact that with them moving, they probably won't be regular characters anymore, or at least for a while. That in itself is pretty disheartening. While they never outright state it, I am still banking on the idea of Mr. Santiago being deceased. What made me feel that this was the most likely outcome had to be the candle that the grandmother put out. Of course it doesn't matter if he's dead or not; what matters is that Bobby and Ronnie Anne are left home alone quite often.

So, the extended family...each family member was likable and they had their own quirks. The grandmother was funny with how she constantly forces her family members to eat if she concluded that they were skin and bones, the father was hilarious with how he constantly has his nose in his books, the young boy was humorous with how he tried to hit on Lori, etc. And of course when that parrot ate that cookie containing the love potion and falls for Bobby...I was dying from laughter there. Besides the obvious sadness, there were a few heartwarming moments that made the episode very dramatic. I guess the best part of this is how the Casagrandes pitch in to give Ronnie Anne a room for her own, and how she's very appreciative of it. Oh, and now Ronnie Anne knows about the audience thanks to Lincoln's advice.

Other than that, a great episode. I am looking forward to see if I'm right about "Back Out There......."
