Synopsis
Lotta wants to convince Fredo and Pinkeye to befriend Melvin after a discussion they had.

Plot
The episode begins with Lotta putting together a Horn-A-Corns house of cards, but is disarmed upon hearing a loud bang. After listening to it several times, the girls go outside to see the problem and see Fredo and Pinkeye throwing various garbage bags from their tree house and cleaning their carpet, with Melvin resting in the trunk. He excuses himself, saying that he was not chosen by the task wheel, which he tricked his friends to have only a 0.3% probability of being chosen. When Lotta notices that there is something strange about the wheel, Fredo and Pinkeye begin to realize the trick.

The boys rebel themselves to Melvin saying that he should clean up, but Melvin refuses, saying that cleaning is like apologizing to a mess. Despite their threats to expel them from the group, Fredo and Pinkeye withdraw not before without shaking their hands. Melvin meanwhile blames Lotta for this matter, and she worries about the matter, but Dot tells her that the Bloogies fight all the time. However, Lotta however, does not listen and excuses herself saying that they are friendship preservers.

Lotta goes for Fredo which has a board game club with Tiny and Todd and tries to convince him to come back, but he says he has more time playing cards. Then he goes for Pinkeye who became a graffiti artist named Pinksy who also does not want to return. The girls go for Melvin, who initially pretends not to care about the absence of his friends, but Lotta notices that there is something wrong seeing him have chills, he nevertheless takes advantage of the situation by making Lotta "redeem herself" by helping them to get his friends back. Using the idea that Melvin once shared used chewing gum with the boys, Lotta makes a board game for Fredo, in which he has an apology letter with her poorly disguised writing posing as Melvin. Audrey hands her over to have an excuse to play the secret zombie board game with the rest of the boys.

In the tree house, Lotta prepares everything except for cleaning the treehouse, where Melvin uses the excuse that this is also part of her redemption procedure, and to go unnoticed, he says that he will use the roulette of chores, and despite it being rigged in a similar way that the last time, he got chosen. Reluctantly, he tries to clean up, but Lotta intervenes, since the girls gathered the others together and the dispute would happen again if they see the mess. Lotta then assists Melvin in his apology speech that ends up being compelling for the boys. When Melvin was going to give them Lotta's sandwiches, he stumbles staining Fredo's cape and asks Lotta to apologize. Lotta refutes him, saying that he has a habit of taking advantage of others and Melvin ends up apologizing to everyone. The episode concludes with Lotta apologizing to herself, and Melvin having a new a fair task wheel avoiding moving a booger bucket to a storage.
