Episode 20 Crushed.

The episode centers around Eduardos crush on Lunella. It starts with them in class getting assigned as partners in a project.

Ed doesn't want to be on a team with Lunella because he likes her, but Lu assumes it because he doesn't like her. Later as moongirl casey sets up a hotline for people to call, and that's when Ed calls and confesses he has a crush on someone in class.

After finding out Eduardo has a crush on her Lu spends the whole day at school trying to avoid him, because he's trying to confess. When he finally talks to her he gives her some candy as a gift. Things go down hill from there because when Ed attempts to confess, Lu interrupts him and lies and says she has a boyfriend.

So then Eduardo tells her he's throwing an 80s themed party and invited her and her "boyfriend".

So.... lunella invents a fake boyfriend for the party to avoid telling Ed she's not interested.

While at the party Eduardo is super chill and nice, and super excited to meet Lunellas boyfriend, but things take a turn when (I'm calling him blorb) blorb glitches out and turns super toxic and weird.

Love Eduardo being like you can't just call someone yours that not how people work. He's so chill. Which leads to blorb trying to fight Ed outside, and poor Ed is just confused.

After Lu shows up and fails to deescalate blorb, we get what I consider to be the funniest just in the show. Why does your boyfriend have parental controls? Crazy. Then Lunella has to come clean of course and explain to Ed that's she's not interested. Then we get the scene that took Ed from being one of my favorite characters, to being my #1.

Eduardo and Lunella come to an understanding and we have a kickbutt dance off.

Ed confesses that he has a crush on moongirl now, and that's the end.

We know from “Skip This Ad… olescence” that Eduardo and Lunella go out when they’re older, at least to that one dance. But again, that’s when they’re older. Right now, Lunella just isn’t feeling it. There are other priorities in her life right now, and she wants to explore those. (And real talk, she had a real connection with Martin, and the low-key rivalry that developed between the boys at the dance might create later complications.) Like Casey said, not wanting to date someone is a legitimate reason for not dating someone. It’s a simple message, but perhaps revolutionary in a culture that tells girls and women they should do whatever people (especially men and boys) ask them to because it’s “polite” and “nice”.
