Inspired by the fanfic "Syngenesophobia" by That Engineer.
[It begins with all the Loud kids, with the exception of Lincoln and Lily, on living room watching TV while Lori is standing against the wall texting Bobby, to which she sends.]
Lori (voice-off): 'It's true what they say: 'Every action has an equal or opposite reaction...''.
[Then, the blinds of the windows begin to close, to the shock and surprise of Lori and the other sisters, who got closer to each other.]
'...It's a law of the universe...'
[And suddenly, the whole house slowly begins to turn upside down while the nine sisters were still where they stood, as if they were inside an sphere. And so, the furniture begins to fall in slow-mo along with the photo frames, the lamp. And for some reason, objects that weren't in the living room such as Lucy's notebook with her poems, Lori's scrapbook with photos of her and Bobby, Lynn's football helmet and some of Lola's plushies.]
'...Nature's way of balancing the scales...'
[More stuff continues to fall slowly as the sisters look at this moment with shock and a bit of horror like Lola's tiaras and her go-kart, Luan's ventriloquist doll Mr. Coconuts, Lynn's sports magazine and vials from Lisa's chemistry set that once they reach the ceiling/floor, begin to break in pieces.]
'...So we should've all seen it coming...'
[This results in Lori using her front to protect her sisters, who were on her back, from the rest of the objects falling and even breaking. Those objects also include Lynn's bats and balls, Lana's tool box that releases all the tools inside, Leni's sewing machine, Luna's amps and instruments. Even Luna's axe falls near Lynn, but it only manages to undo her ponytail and Luan gets the same treatment, but with one of Lola's tiaras. And at the same time, they all look at a family picture of all the members that gets broken after touching the ceiling and somehow, the crack divides Lincoln and Lily from the other sisters.]
'Now, our once chaotic-yet carefully construced world has been turned upside down...and everything is a mess...'
[After one of Lola's tattered pageant sashes falls, everything gets calm and the Loud sisters begin to see the mess on the house with a bit of shock, horror and even i would say...guilt.]
'But no matter how many messes we've gone through, we've always been able to pick up the pieces...'
[In that moment, Lori picks from the ground Lincoln's stuffed animal Bun-Bun, who for some reason had a few drops of blood in his chest, resulting in the eldest sibling having a few tears forming on her eyes.]
'...But after what we did...will that be enough?'
