Cannot Keep a Secret | |
| Lu & the Bally Bunch / int_125f3ee4 | comment |
Cannot Keep a Secret: The episode "Cupcake Surprise" has Lu entrust Barnaby with the secret that Shella has brought personalized cupcakes for everyone to eat. Barnaby flubs it and ends up telling Biba, who tells Elodie, who tells Declan, who tells Gus as Lu overhears. | |

Poor Communication Kills | |
| Lu & the Bally Bunch / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: In the episode "Tower Tower Wow" Declan introduces the titular game to Lu and Gus, but does not explain the rules, which involves building up a tower only to knock it down afterwards. Needless to day, Gus finds out the rules the hard way and he is not happy about them. At least two plot points focusing on Biba could have been prevented if she had just communicated with Lu and told her how she felt. | |

Patience Plot | |
| Lu & the Bally Bunch / int_22ed36d7 | comment |
Patience Plot: The short, "Talking About Waiting" contains a scene where the bugs must wait for Shella to return with the "Patient Peas". Elodie struggles because she hates waiting and always gets bored while doing it. "When's My Turn" focuses on Lu and Declan having to wait while Elodie finishes her turn with a toy truck. Elodie ends up prolonging her turn on purpose to get more time with the truck. In the end, when Lu's turn finally comes, she ends it early because she wants to play with her friends instead. | |

Infant Sibling Jealousy: "Play With Me" focuses on Biba becoming jealous of her baby brother Bo due to Lu wanting to play with him instead of her. Barnaby is ever so slightly jealous of his baby twin siblings because they get more attention than he does. Despite this he still loves them with all his heart. | |

Never Say "Die": The episode, "Droopy Patrick" focuses on Lu's plant Patrick drooping and not responding to sunlight or water. This is Lu's first experience with death. While it is made clear that the plant is no longer alive, it is never explicitly said that is dead, either. Justified since this is a show for preschoolers. | |
