Angelica broken leg episode

This is the episode where Charlotte and Drew go on vacation and Angelica stays at Stu and Didi's while they're away. She tries to get Stu, Didi, Grandpa Lou, and even Tommy to do something with her, but they all have other plans. We all know that she gets annoyed by this and pretends to break her leg so everyone will give her more attention. Thanks to an error by the ER doctor, Angelica's sent home in a cast and kept in bed. We know that she uses her alleged injury to turn Stu and Didi into her personal servants. I find it kind of funny that Grandpa Lou wasn't there helping tend to Angelica. Being that he's one of the adults that live there, people would think that he would be helping take the stress in caring for Angelica off of Stu and Didi.

He's an old man. He can't move as fast or as often.

Can't stop the signal.

Good point. Plus, now that I remember, part of a running gag with his character was that he would often fall asleep, so he probably would have slept through it. Makes sense because of Grandpa Lou's age.

Ha, that's true, too.

Also in the episode, in one scene Didi is seen trying to get ahold of Charlotte and Drew to inform them of Angelica's "broken" leg. With Charlotte constantly on her phone, you can see that Didi had a really hard time being able to get ahold of Angelica's parents.
