This episode has made its debut in Italy. This episode will air in the U.S. on May 30, 2022.
"Present Danger" (originally titled "You Only Gift Twice"[1]) is the first episode of the sixth season, the two-hundred-forty-seventh episode, and the sixth-season premiere of The Loud House.
This reveals that Lincoln was still 11 years old throughout Season 5.
As of this episode, Lincoln, Lana, Lola and Lisa are currently the only Loud siblings whose ages are confirmed to have gone up (Lana and Lola turned 7 in "Strife of the Party" and Lisa was confirmed to be 5 in "The Loudly Bones").
This is the first season premiere since "Left in the Dark" to not be a full-length episode, and the first since "11 Louds a Leapin'" to not have its title end with the suffix "-ed!"
This is also the first season premiere episode where Lori is absent.[note 1] However, she does appear in its sister episode.
This is the first episode where Jahzir Bruno voices Clyde.
This episode reveals that Lynn Sr., Leonard and all of Lincoln's friends are fans of David Steele as well.
It is also revealed that whenever a Loud male turns 12, their father would pass onto them a copy of the very first issue of David Steele.
According to Lisa, no invention of hers can withstand Lola's wrath.
