It was a very slow day in the Loud House.

"Why is everything so boring?" moaned Lynn, who had seemingly had run out of ways to amuse herself- an impressive feat considering all the sports she played and all her own invented versions of them on top of them.

"I think we're just all in a rut" answered Lori. "I don't even get excited when Bobby sends me cute texts right now and it sucks."

Almost everyone in the house seemed to be affected.

Luna's usual shredding was replaced with a very weak strumming.

"Why did the chicken cross the road?" Luan said in a near monotone. "Because he wanted to cross the road."

Lana was just lying on the ground on top of Lola, possibly because they were wrestling, but Lola didn't even seem to have the energy to get loose.

Lucy was nowhere to be seen, not even bothering to show up to surprise the other siblings anymore.

Lily was sleeping and so was the normally industrious Lisa.

Even Mom and Dad Loud were going out of their minds.

The only ones unaffected seemed to be Lincoln, who had spent the last few days eagerly waiting for something, and Leni, who had yet again gotten lost on her way to the kitchen and found a treasure trove of wonderful clothes. Lori didn't even have the energy to quarrel about the fact that Leni was once again stealing her clothes.

It was at that moment that Lincoln burst through the front door.

"I won it!" he yelled. "I won the Normanwear Magazine's Underwear Quiz!"

"Not to bust your bubble, li'l bro, but that doesn't sound all that amazing." Luna answered.

"Don't you see?" Lincoln exclaimed. "You've all been in this funk for days because we haven't done anything different in a long time! The prize for winning was a weekend in Happydale Heights with food and lodging paid for, and of course a tour of the Normanwear Factory."

"Sounds great except for the tour" Lori remarked. "But what is there actually to do in Happydale Heights?"

"I don't know." Lincoln said with a shrug. "The only things I could find out about it except Normanwear is that a billionaire Sumo Champion lives in a mansion there. I just think we need a change of pace."

"That Sumo Champion sounds interesting," Lynn said. "I'm in!"

"It's better than nothing, right kids?" Dad Loud chimed in. "Happydale Heights, here we come!"

If anyone disagreed, they were too disinterested to even say no.
