Plot
On Monday, Lynn is about to head into the garage to practice some basketball. She would practice in the backyard, but dad is doing some yard work, which involved reseeding the grass, so the backyard is off limits for a week or so. However, as she was walking in, she was knocked off her feet by a burst of rock music. Luna was in the garage jamming out to music. Her guitar was shredding and the amps were blaring. Luna said before going into a guitar solo. Lynn then left the garage, while covering her ears and growling to herself.

On Tuesday, Luna was about to head into the garage to begin her rock session. When all of a sudden, she saw a baseball flying right at her. Luna says "WHOA!" as she ducked to avoid the fast flying ball. When she looked up she found Lynn practicing some baseball with a pitching machine. Lynn says that today is practicing some baseball and her dad reseeded the grass in yesterday, now she then hit another baseball into home run, causing Luna to duck again. She then left the garage, growling to herself.

On Wednesday, Lynn was about to head into the garage again when she found Luna rocking out again. Luna said as she was heading into a duck walk. As she was in the middle of duck walking, her guitar had suddenly stopped making music. She then turned to find that Lynn had unplucked her guitar from her amp. The two then argued with each other for the rest of the day. And they were still arguing when they and Lincoln and the others were having their nightly get together. But to their siblings dismay they were dragged into their argument. Lori then said, after getting tired of listening to them arguing. Lynn and Luna finally stopped arguing and just stared at each other with anger.

In the next morning, the Louds were in the living room. Lincoln was reading a comic, Lori was on her phone, Luan was reading a book about jokes and Lucy was reading one of her vampire books, the twins were playing with Lily, and Lisa was doing another experiment. Suddenly a baseball came flying from the dining room right towards Lincoln. Luckily, Lincoln caught it guick enough. Lincoln and the others then looked in surprise at Luna holding a baseball and a bat. She wasn't wearing her usual clothes. Instead she was wearing a red long-sleeved jersey with a 3 on it, red shorts, cleats, and a red baseball hat over her head. She wasn't wearing her eyeshadow or earrings either. She then said "How's it going?". Luna explained that Lynn and her made a bet with each other last night, and that bet is seeing who can last the longest as each other. Just then they were interrupted by the sound of a guitar strum. They turned to see Lynn at the staircase holding Luna's guitar. She wearing a purple shirt with a skull on it, a purple skirt with a white loose belt, matching boots, and bracelets around her wrists. Her hair and ponytail is also a lot spikier and she was also wearing clip on earrings with skulls on them and purple eyeshadow. During the asking, Luna and Lynn then left out the front with Luna saying "Catch ya guys later!" and Lynn saying "Peace out, dudes!" Leni was walking down stairs when she saw Luna and Lynn leaving.

Throughout the day, Lynn was at a local music club in town that Luna often goes to play gigs. She spent the day teaching herself how to play a guitar, because all she knows is just the basic make sounds. She was preparing to try to play a guitar and quickly strummed the guitar, but the music was off key. She then tuned it up the guitar strings and tried again. Then she tried again, and again, and again, and again.

Meanwhile, Luna just got finished with her baseball session at the park, though she made little progress due to only hitting the ball 3 or 4 times out of 50 swings. She just got to roller rink to begin her roller derby practice. She's getting ready, she was having a hard time trying to keep her balance and begun to slip and fall on the floor because of the roller skates she was wearing.

By the end of the day, Lynn and Luna had made somewhat improvement on their previous lack of each other's talents. Lynn had manage to play an entire rock verse, on key, and Luna manage to go an entire hour without falling. That evening, during the get together, they told the others about what they did today. Though they exaggerated the truth a lot, to try to one up each other. After the kids were done with nightly meeting they were heading to their rooms. But Lynn was heading into Luna and Luan's room and Luna was heading into Lynn and Lucy's room. Lynn and Luna then looked at each other and justed "hmph" each other before entering their rooms. Luan and Lucy think things will be the same. They were far from right. Later on, Lucy was finishing writing on her new poem while Luna was just about to head to sleep. However, after she finished her poem, she couldn't fall asleep because of Luna forgetting to do Lynn's "nightly ritual". Every night Lynn throws a tennis ball at the wall multiple times to help her sleep. Lucy has gotten so use to the sound of ball to wall banging, that she can't sleep without it. Meanwhile, before Lynn and Luan head to bed, Lynn was practicing some more on the guitar. After she finished, Luan answered her question. Three hours later, Luan was still awake, with a tired look on her face. She can't sleep a wink because of the sound Lynn's heavy snoring.

In the Friday morning, Luna just woke up to see that Lucy was up the entire night. Meanwhile, as Luna was pondering what to do, Lynn was practicing a little on Luna's ukulele as Luan was slowly getting out of bed. Luan noticed Lincoln's school is having the dance tonight at 7:00. A few minutes later Lynn and Luna left their rooms and came face to face with each other. The two then left the house rushing towards the place where the derby and the dance are happening. Along the way, they thinking to each other whether or not they shouldn't have told each other that they were having trouble.

At the roller rink, Luna was preparing for the derby by rushing as quick as possible to learn how to keep balance. However, that is not going well because she keeps falling on the ground. But then Rita, the mother from the Loud family, walks in the building to find Luna struggling to get back.

Meanwhile, Lynn was at Lincoln's school preparing herself for the dance. She was playing and strumming her guitar with panicly. But then Lynn Sr., the dad from the Loud family, walked towards her. Just then, Lynn had an idea after dad says "yes". For the rest of the day, Lynn and Luna were getting all the training they needed for tonight. Rita was teaching Luna how to skate for the derby and how to stay on her feet. And Lynn Sr. was teaching Lynn how to play the guitar. Luna was better at staying on her feet and was able to run full laps around the rink. Lynn was doing great at playing the guitar and was even starting play without looking at her guitar.

It was 7:00. The time where the roller derby began and the dance started. Luna was getting ready to speed through the rink and Lynn was getting ready to go out on stage to play some music. They were both nervous, but they both knew they had to do it for each. Then it was 8:30, and Lynn and Luna were walking home with big smiles across their faces, because Luna won the derby and Lynn was a hit at the dance. That night, Lynn, Lincoln and Lynn Sr. we're entering the house. The other girls were in the living when they came in.

One week later, everything was back to normal in the Loud House. Lynn and Luna were their old selfs again. They were back in their old clothes, doing their own activities, and back in their own rooms. That evening, the louds were in the living rooms relaxing when Lynn came down the stairs with great news.
