Information[]

Summary[]

Lizzie feels that Nigel works too much during lunch, so she forces him to have lunch with her, but he cannot work. Meanwhile, a group of lunch thieves and their leader Robin Food break into the cafeteria and start stealing everybody's lunches, including Lizzie and Numbuh 1's.

Plot[]

While working on a new weapon in his locker, Numbuh 1's girlfriend shows up and pulls him out of the locker. Lizzie feels that Nigel works too much during lunch with/for the KND, so she forces him to have lunch with her, but he can't work. Meanwhile, a group of lunch thieves and their leader Robin Food break into the cafeteria and start stealing everybody's lunches, including Lizzie and Nigel's. Nigel starts to fight by taking hostage one member of Robin Food's gang and threatening to spray him with hot sauce, but Lizzie reminds him that he is not suppose to fight. While arguing with Lizzie, Robin Food's gang manages to attack him and take back the man Nigel was holding hostage. Once the gang leaves with all the children's food, Lizzie takes matters into her own hands since they had also taken the lunch Lizzie made for Nigel. She tells Nigel to stay put and goes into Nigel's locker and transforms it into a combat machine called L.O.C.K.A.H.S.O.C.K.A.H.

Meanwhile, at Sure Would Forest Senior Center, Robin Food and the lunch robbers have been giving the food they took from kids to senior citizens, but the senior citizens disapprove. Just then, Lizzie busts into the retirement home and tries to get the lunch she made for Nigel and her back from Robin Food. She shoots sticky old gym clothes at them until everyone except Robin Food is covered in filthy clothes. Robin Food makes Lizzie feel guilty about trying to take the lunches back from the "helpless" senior citizens. She then starts to cry and says that she didn't know they were starving. However, Hoagie's grandma and the other members of the Senior Citizen Squad form their giant geslat robot and prepare to attack. Lizzie tries to apologize only for them to tell her they don't want her lunch and that it's Robin Food they're going to beat up, to her shock. The Senior Citizen Squad and the other denizens of Sure Would Forest Senior Center then tell Lizzie that Robin Food and his Hungry Men are really their retirement home's cafeteria workers and that they only steal food from children and teenagers because they're too lazy to cook them Senior Center cafeteria food like they're supposed to and like they want them to. The denizens also tell her that they hate the public school cafeteria food he brings them because it’s bad for their stomachs and that they want him to make them senior citizen meals like he’s supposed to. Upon hearing this, Lizzie glares at the nervous Robin Food for lying to her (not to mention his laziness and careless disregard). However, Robin Food still doesn’t listen and says they are going to rob the school of tomorrow's lunch special, as he and his men start singing again. Hoagie's grandma gives Lizzie her lunch and tells her to leave just as the Senior Citizen Squad start beating up Robin Food and his Hungry Men.

Later, when everyone has gone home, Nigel is still sitting at the table and then Lizzie arrives. But Nigel finds out that their lunch is just a piece of celery. Lizzie tells Nigel that he's been really letting himself go and is really put on weight as she talks on about the subject, Nigel's head falls onto the celery.

Transcript[]

Operation: L.U.N.C.H./Transcript

Trivia[]

  • The premise for this episode was; "GROWN-UP CAFETERIA WORKERS ARE TOO LAZY TO DO THEIR JOB SO THEY STEAL FROM KIDS."[1]
  • The KND will often use sandwiches instead of discs to upload data.
  • The KND computer identifies Lizzie as "code L".
  • Stock footage from Operation: T.A.P.I.O.C.A. is used during the Age-itize scene.
  • This is the first and only time the KND transition logo is replaced with a Lizzie transition logo.
  • Robin Food's song is to the tune of the Rainbow Monkey song.
  • Lizzie's lunchbox has "N+L" on the front in front of a love heart, N is for Nigel and L is for Lizzie.
  • Numbuhs 3 and 5 do not appear in this episode.

Series continuity[]

  • This is the second time Numbuh 1 has been attacked in the school cafeteria, the last time was in Operation: F.O.O.D.F.I.T.E..
  • Robin Food and his Hungry Men's habit of singing will return later in Operation: A.W.A.R.D.S..
  • Lydia was last seen using her Senior Citizen Robot in Operation: T.A.P.I.O.C.A..
  • Nigel was disappointed when Lizzie revealed that all she had for his lunch was a celery stick, but it is revealed in Operation: S.N.O.W.I.N.G. that Lizzie's cooking is atrocious, so if you think about it he was lucky Lizzie didn't make him something gross for lunch.

Cultural references[]

  • Robin Food and his Hungry Men are an obvious parody of Robin Hood and his Merry Men.
    • Little Juan is an obvious parody of Little John.
    • "Sure Would Forest Senior Center" is a reference to Sherwood Forest, a British forest associated with Robin Hood.
  • Little Juan's voice is an impression of Sammy Davis Jr.
  • Lydia calls Robin Food for "mr. crazy tights", likely a reference to the 1993 Robin Hood parody film, Robin Hood: Men in Tights.

Goofs[]

  • As Nigel and Lizzie are walking through the cafeterie, they are almost at the door when the shot changes and then they are for some reason back by the soda dispenser.
  • The doors to the dining hall are closed when Nigel and Lizzie are walking towards them, but open a moment later.
  • The table that Lizzie picks out is actually the one closest to the doors, but then moves to the back of the dining hall.
  • When the blond Hungry Man lands at a table and starts shooting an arrow, the windows behind him are still intact despite being broken only a second ago by his comrades.
  • The tall blond boy with glasses that are standing by the doors as the Hungry Men are breaking in disappear from view when the blond Hungry Man lands.
  • When Robin Food lands on a table, there are no kids sitting by it, only cowering next to it. Then, after he tells the kids to hand "it" over, all the tables around are filled with kids sitting with their food.
  • Also, the table he lands on has been emptied of food before he enters, but the food suddenly reappears when he demands it handed over.
  • The table he landed on is not that close to the doors, but it unexplainably is later.
  • The Hungry Men already stole all the food that was close to the windows, but the food has reappeared when Little Juan takes his round.
  • The perspectives and locations in the dining hall are all over the place.
  • Lizzie somehow knows Nigel's access code to his 2x4 technology.
  • As Lizzie is fighting in the retirement home, the tables in the dining hall are missing wherever she is.
  • The chicken leg in Robin Food's hat sometimes moves to the other side.
  • When Robin Food is driving Lizzie back, the cafeteria serving tables are missing as well.
  • When the old people are complaining about Robin Food, the clothes sticking to the wall with the Hungry Men has disappeared.
