Love Toboggan

## Paired with

"The Island of Lost Dakotas"

**"Love Toboggan"** is the 32nd episode in the first season of *Milo Murphy's Law*. It aired on September 29, 2017.

Sara is so nervous about her lunch with Neal from the comic shop that she's not even sure if it's even a date. But she at least feels safe to hang out with him when Milo and his friends visit Bluster Mountain to go skiing. Things change quite a bit when the ski resort's toboggan chute breaks loose as the three ride one of them.

## Plot

Sara and Brigette are in the kitchen when Sara learns her father and brother are skiing with their friends. Sara tells her mother she is meeting her crush, "Neal from the comic shop", for lunch and is not sure if it is a date or not. Milo, Martin, Zack, and Melissa enjoy their time skiing, even with Murphy's Law around, until their toboggan goes haywire and they head to town.

Meanwhile, Sara meets Neal for lunch at a diner and is still not sure if it's a date or not. They then head to a comic store where Milo and company crash into them. The toboggan becomes jet-propelled after the shop's boiler falls onto it. Along the ride, Neil asks Sara if this is a date or not, much to her joy and relief. After Diogee disconnects the boiler from the sled, Milo and his friends leave the two alone. Back home, Brigette's blueprints are destroyed by the boiler.

* Sara became a fan of *Doctor Zone* in the fourth grade when her father was watching the program.

### Errors

* When first seen Milo and Melissa have modern skis, i.e.; swept and curved at both ends. However, when Milo gives the replacement ski to Melissa, both his and her skis are different than other scenes in that the tips are pointed and the tails are flat and square.
* Part of Sergio McGuinness' placard blacks out part of his name and the date when Sergio tells his dead father he broke the land speed record.
* When Milo, Melissa, Zack, Neal, and Sara are on the toboggan in the boiler room of the comic book shop, Melissa's toque disappears. It reappears again once they rocket out of the building.
