Calvin Coconuts Jr.[1] (more commonly known as Mr. Coconuts) is Luan's ventriloquist dummy. He is a recurring object in the series.

Biography[]

Early life[]

Mr. Coconuts was created by renowned puppet maker Calvin Coconuts in his image. They would tour the country as a father-puppet banjo act until they visited Royal Woods, where Mr. Coconuts was abducted by a bird. Eventually, the bird ran into a kite flown by an eleven-year-old Lori Loud and dropped Mr. Coconuts on the front yard of the Loud House, where an eight-year-old Luan found him.

Living with Luan[]

Ever since, Mr. Coconuts has become a recurring element in Luan's comedy routines. Like most ventriloquists, Luan moves his lips up and down to project the illusion of speech, by talking through clenched teeth. Whenever she sets up a joke, she has him deliver it, and laughs at his punchlines. Unlike Colonel Crackers, Mr. Coconuts does not have a voice of his own.

Up until the ending of "Stage Plight", he was never seen moving when he is not being controlled by Luan.

In "Road Trip: Doll Day Afternoon", Calvin saw Mr. Coconuts at the time when the Loud family was visiting one of the Route 66 restaurants. He was able to make off with him while Luan was in the bathroom. The led to a chase all over Route 66 until the Loud family caught up with him. After learning of Calvin's connection with Mr. Coconuts, Luan allowed Calvin to have Mr. Coconuts back. Later that night, Calvin got into Camperzilla and allowed Luan to keep Mr. Coconuts. As a compromise, Luan allowed Calvin to visit Mr. Coconuts anytime.

Appearance[]

Mr. Coconuts has big eyes, with over-exaggerated pupils that resemble coconuts, hence the name; orange hair in a pompadour, and enlarged dimples, with painted freckles. He wears a yellow barbershop hat, a light blue buttoned jacket, rolled up pants, yellow boots, and a red bow tie.

Human Mr

In "Sweet Dreams Are Made of Cheese", Luan has a cheese-induced nightmare where she co-stars with a human version of Mr. Coconuts in a sitcom. Eventually, Mr. Coconuts leaves the show, leaving her in despair because he is supposed to be her co-star and she cannot do anything without him.

This version of Mr. Coconuts soon ceases to exist as Lincoln and Clyde eventually break Luan out of her nightmare.

While unrelated to this version, Luna mentions in "Road Trip: Doll Day Afternoon" that she also once had a nightmare about a humanoid version of Mr. Coconuts.
