==Episode Summary==
After Penny is announced the new member of the cheerleading squad, an old friend of Dijonay's, LaCienega, shows up. Dijonay lets her try out and she "ties" with Penny. To decide between the two, Dijonay schedules a cheer-off. Behind Dijonay's back, LaCienega makes fun of Penny. She realizes that LaCienega does not just go to the same school as her, but she is also her new neighbor! Her parents invite them over for dinner to welcome them to the neighborhood. Trudy makes friends with LaCienega's mother, Sunset. Oscar makes friends with LaCienega's father, Felix. Suga Mama makes friends with LaCienega's grandfather, Papi. Penny decides not to hold a grudge against LaCienega. Meanwhile, Oscar plans a "camping trip" (to watch TV) in Felix's home theater. The next day, Penny tells LaCienega that she is sorry and wants to be her friend. But LaCienega still doesn't want to be nice to Penny. So Penny takes "Sticky" to eat with the Gross Sisters.

==Trivia==
*This episode was not advertised on Disney Channel and aired before the scheduled premiere date.
*This episode was the fifth episode to be produced, but it aired first, since it introduced LaCienega properly.
*The Proud Family was originally presented to Nickelodeon, but when they passed it over, Disney Channel picked it up instead.
*The episode's title and plot are a reference to the 2000 film of the same name.
*The marquee outside the Boulevardez home theater reads "Now Playing: The Odd Couple", which just so happens to focus on characters also named Oscar and Felix.
*When Suga Mama returns from the Boulevardez house, she tells Oscar and Trudy that she just saw Cesar Romero, but Oscar tells her Romero is dead. Later, when Papi Boulevardez is introduced, he does indeed resemble Romero's portrayal of the Joker from the 1960s Batman television series.
