"Fandom Pains" is the twelfth episode of the third season, and the one-hundred-thirteenth episode of The Loud House. PlotLucy becomes annoyed when Lori and Leni start watching her vampire show because of a cute new character. SynopsisTonight is the season premiere of The Vampires of Melancholia, and Lucy is eager to watch the show all alone with her bust of Edwin. However, just as the show begins, Lori and Leni arrive, wanting to watch the show as well. Lori and Leni reveal that the reason why they're watching the show is because a super hot actor named Blake Bradley is starring in the show as Edwin's great-great-great-great grandnephew named Tristan, and they're head over heels for him. While clearly enamored by Blake's mere appearance, Lori and Leni are disgusted at the fact the main characters, Edwin and Griselda, are so bleak looking, despite Lucy's statements that they're vampires, and that they're supposed to look like that. One hour later, when the episode ends, Lori and Leni are pleased to know that they have something fun to do every Friday, while Lucy is clearly displeased that she can no longer watch the show alone. Next Friday, as Lori and Leni wash dishes, they are anticipating the next episode of Vampires of Melancholia tonight. Lucy, in an attempt to get the two to quit watching the show, attempts to drive them away with "pre-show rituals" that fans of the show do, ranging from having vampire-like makeup applied to their faces, hang upside down for prolonged periods of time, watch the show in coffins, and drink homemade blood. However, Lori and Leni manage to improvise these "rituals" and only fuel their interest in the show more, since the makeup can make them look prettier, them being upside down allows them to see under the sofa to look for lost possessions, make their coffins more relaxing with decorative pillows and the lid being used as a table, and Lori making beet smoothies, since it looks just like blood. After an hour of watching the show (which involves Tristan turning Edwin's castle into a gym), Lucy, no longer able to handle Lori and Leni watching the show alongside her, realizes that if she can get Tristan out of the show, Lori and Leni might stop watching. At school, Lucy is holding a meeting with her fellow Morticians Club members, and they reveal that they stopped watching the show ever since Tristan was introduced. Lucy says that she has a plan on how to get Tristan out the show. She has them go around town, and have as many people to sign a petition (while also getting candy, since people are mistaking them for trick-or-treaters), and send in protest letters to the studio by having their pet bats fly to the studio with their letters tied to them. On Friday, Lucy anticipates for the premiere to see if the studio heard her protest. When Lori and Leni arrive wearing team based shirts, the show begins. While eating dinner, Edwin suggests to Tristan that after they eat, they go for a walk near some slippery cliffs. As Edwin and Tristan walk along the cliffs, Tristan attempts to take a selfie, but falls to his death in the misty cliff. Lori and Leni are immediately horrified at what happened, quickly burst into tears, and leave while bawling their eyes out, while Lucy is happy that Tristan is officially gone from the show. Next Friday, as Lucy eagerly watches her show in solitude, Edwin is revealed to miss Tristan, because even if he's a bit of a goofball, and tends to do things that Edwin doesn't like, he's still part of the family. Realizing that what she had done was wrong, Lucy attempts to find Lori and Leni so she can encourage them to watch the show again, but discovers that they're gone. While sadly heading downstairs, Lori and Leni arrive back from the store, and Lucy asks them if they would like to watch the show with her. Lori and Leni agree, and reveal that while Blake Bradley was one of the reasons why they got in the show, the other reason why they were watching the show was because they just wanted to spend time with Lucy. As Lori, Leni, and Lucy watch the show, Edwin hears a knocking at his door. He goes to answer it, and discovers that it's Tristan, now a vampire, thanks to Griselda, who tagged alongside with him. While Lori and Leni are happy at the fact that Tristan is back, Lucy, realizing her protests didn't work, is happy that Tristan is back, so Lori and Leni can be happy once more. Cast
