## Description

Lori is torn between two fantastic boys in Enchatria Girls's newest TV special "Why Do Girls Fall in Love?"

## Story

Lori is daydreaming about her ideal Sweet 16 party in the catacombs, which Judy and Rachel agree to make happen. Wendy then explains that Lori's birthday was in a few days, and Clyde attempts to get Lori a gift, but ends up getting scolded by Rachel, which eventually leads to him asking C.J. Cupid for help, but it doesn't turn out well when he builds her a stepstool to reach things in her locker, which makes Lori think that Clyde thinks she's short, earning a whack on the head for Clyde from his sister, Rachel, and a rolled-up magazine. Lori soon reveals she used to date a boy named Valentine, but she had to move away from him.

Scarlett and her crew hears this, and she hatches a plan to get back at the girls for not inviting her to Lori's Sweet 16th. Meanwhile, Elsa can't decide whether to take Brainy or Donald Marks to Lori's party, and tries to find out who she should take with Jimmy and Elsa's help, but she decides to do it scientifically. Rachel and Judy try to find an old concert hall in the Catacombs, but nearly fall into the Pit Of Eternal Body Odor, but they are both saved by Layla. They then ask her if they can set up Lori's party in the Catacombs, and Operetta approves. Scarlett begins her plan by calling Valentine (while imitating Lori's voice), which causes him to transfer to Enchatria High.

Elsa then finds Timmy Plasience is her perfect match, and Clyde decides to give Lori a box of the items that reminded her how she fell in love with him, but she finds out that Valentine transferred to Enchatria High, and starts spending time with him. Rachel, Wendy, Judy, Zee and Abby confront Lori about it, and Rachel admits that while Clyde obviously isn't perfect, he genuinely cares about Lori--Rachel and the other girls also point out that he will eventually found out about what's going on between her and Valentine. Rachel tells Lori that she can't have it both ways; she *has* to make a choice: either Clyde or Valentine. Lori soon realizes that while she has enjoyed spending time with Valentine, she really has moved on from him to Clyde, but after she confesses this to Valentine (who has been revealed to purposely break the hearts of the girls he originally dated, once they were totally in love with him, he would 'harvest their hearts'), he's forced to hypnotize Lori into loving him. The girls soon find out by sending Jessica to spy on Valentine, and find out that Scarlett put him up to it, and on Lori's birthday, she'll be permanently under his control. The ghouls then turn to C.J. Cupid, who agrees to help them by shooting Draculaura with one of her arrows so she will fall in love with Clyde.

However, Scarlett foils her and she and Clyde end up falling in love with each other. Wendy, Zee Kazaam and Abby then go back up to Cupid's tower, where they try to find a way to break the spell so Clyde can show Lori the box. They are successful when they learn they can break the spell by smashing the bow, and they decide to do it at Lori's party, where everyone will be. Judy and Rachel then make copies of the key to the concert hall to use as party invitations and give them out to many students, including Cupid, Clyde, Valentine, Lori, and Jack because he will need to turn into DJ Jack to be the DJ. On the night of the party, Frankie is about to smash the bow, but it's quickly stolen by Scarlett, who begins to shoot random peoples, including Judy and Jimmy. Rachel then hatches a plan to use herself as bait to distract Scarlett while the others get the bow.

Rachel is shot and falls in love with Hewitt Turner, but Wendy removes her hand, which knocks the bow out of Scarlett's grasp, Gina spills water on the floor, Zee use wand to blast, and Abby freezes it which causes Scarlett and her crew to slip and Scarlett ends up dangling from the banner over the Pit Of Eternal Body Odor. The girls smash the bow, which frees everyone from the spell, Clyde then tries to show Lori the box but is pinned against the wall by Valentine's magic. However, Clyde still manages to convince Lori to look in the box which reminds her why she fell in love with Clyde and breaks free from Valentine's spell, she then confronts Valentine who is driven toward the edge of the Pit Of Eternal Body Odor, Scarlett then falls on him and they fall into it together. As a result, Valentine's power is broken, and all the girls he harvested the hearts of get their hearts back. Valentine and Scarlett are then tossed out of Lori's party by Judy's Anubis bouncers.

Lori and Clyde then share a kiss, Abby and Zee helps C.J. Cupid with her radio show, Elsa, realizing that her computer was literally bugged, tries to tell Timmy she's not compatible with him, is interrupted when he tells her that after Valentine fell into the pit, all the girls who were crazy about him moved on, so he breaks up with her. The movie ends with Clyde and Lori driving away from the school in Lori's new car, and splashing mud on Valentine and Scarlett.

## Notes

### References

* The title is a play on the 1956 song titled *Why Do Fools Fall in Love* by Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers.
* "Mummingitis" is a pun on the disease "meningitis".
* The Cauldron of Eternal Body Odor is based off of The Bog of Eternal Stench from the 1986 Jim Henson film *Labyrinth*.
* The Ghost of Christmas Past mentioned during Dead Languages is a character from the Charles Dickens Christmas story *A Christmas Carol*.
* Valentine holding up the boombox is a reference to the 1989 film *Say Anything...*.
* Kenan Valentine has a real name is Kenan Thompson from 90's Nickelodeon show Wikipedia:Kenan and Kel and NBC show Wikipedia:Saturday Nigh Live

### Continuity

* In the webisode "Party Planners", Lori celebrated her Sweet 16 before she was dating Clyde; as with many Volume 1 details, this fact has now been overwritten.
* "Girls Rule" will explain the exact circumstances of Lori's sudden departure from Europe.

### Milestones

* C.J. Cupid, Kenan Valentine, and Pamela McIvy make their cartoon debuts. That the green girl was Pamela was not officially confirmed until a day later.
* Valentine's mother is first heard speaking.
* Kipper's model—not the character—debuts as a character in the 3D movie Lori remembers having gone to with Clyde.
* This is the first TV special to be in CG or 3D.

### Errors

* Even if mere fantasy, Rachel starts out in Lori's fantasy in her '*Basic*' clothes in the background, then wears her *Sweet 16* clothes when she properly appears.
* Tawnya has darker fur when she first appears in Lori's fantasy.
* Valentine has a reflection when he holds the picture of Lori. One might think his special powers grant him one despite being a vampire, but he doesn't have one in the wing mirror of Wick's car, meaning his earlier reflection is an error.
* Why isn't Rachel hurt by the dog-whistle she uses on Clyde?
* How much time passes between the party and the final scene? Scarlett and Valentine walk away in defeat, which would suggest a two-hour-timeframe tops, but everyone wears their regular clothes again and Lori gets to drive, meaning she must've already passed her test. At the least, that'd make a day difference.
* When Wendy's hand throws Cupid's bow and smashes on the floor, her shoes are basic instead of the Sweet 16.
* After Clyde gives Lori her stool and walks all pouty, Keith is talking to Jack and is not wearing his glasses. Jack is not turned to stone after looking in his eyes. This is because the fact he was animated without his glasses was an error.

### Other

* This TV special takes place in Volume 3 of the CGI TV specials, as it was before "Fight On!" which was the Volume 2 finale and took place in Volume 2 right before it ended.

* The web games *Super-Sweet Memories* and *Driver's Ed!* tie into this TV special.
* On February 11, 2022, Swapit uploaded the special on their website for view by residents of the United Kingdom only. However, it was accidentally made available for view by everyone. For about two days, it was assumed that the upload was a leak, partially because Erin Fitzgerald thought it was too and urged everyone to wait for the official release. The true nature of the Swapit upload was revealed by the end of the 11th, around which time the upload was also made inaccessible to anyone outside of the UK.
* As of this special, Keith and Jimmy are voiced by Evan Smith.
* The post-theme song scene in the classroom is reused for "From Fear to Eternity", the two exceptions being the characters sitting in the row being zoomed in on and the animation on Mr. Glennsburg.
