Every character on Bob's Burgers shines in their own way. But Louise is in a category all of her own. With an uncanny quick wit for someone so young and a penchant for violent outbursts, she is easily a fan favorite. Louise often pulls the wool over her older sister Tina's eyes and can be emotionally abusive to her mother.
She gets along best with her father and Gene, but that doesn't mean she always agrees with them. She's had her fair share of shouting matches. Louise is unafraid to challenge anyone, no matter how much bigger or older they are.
Playing the Pesto Twins' Art Dealer
Louise realizes that the Art Crawl in her town is the perfect get rich quick scheme, as tourists will buy anything that's labeled as art. She employs the naive Pesto twins to do her bidding, having them glue macaroni in various shapes and patterns to sell to the rubes on the boardwalk.
She plays the role of a sleazy artist's manager perfectly. One minute, she coddles them and calls them baby, and the next she's screaming in their faces to move faster to make mama money. Louise is a total psycho.
Warming Up Before the Show
Linda puts on a murder mystery dinner musical at the restaurant, and the kids are of course involved. As Louise prepares for her time in the spotlight, she engages in a series of nonsensical vocal exercises. When Tina interrupts her, she blows up at her older sister.
She immediately apologizes, claiming pre-show jitters, but as soon as Tina opens her mouth again, Louise is once more berating her. Poor Tina always gets on her little sister's bad side. Although, it doesn't seem like Louise has a good one.
The Bed and Breakfast Fiasco
When Linda opens up the apartment to become a bed and breakfast, everyone in the family has to make sacrifices. Louise is enraged to lose her room to her father's friend Teddy, throwing abusive words at him, telling him she'll see him in hell.
What makes the outburst funnier is that Linda tries to sweeten her up before dropping the bomb that she's giving up her room. Bob knows Linda is fighting a losing battle. Her parents know her so well they're anticipating a freakout. Louise doesn't disappoint.
Calling Out Gene on His Nonsense
Gene accidentally gets romantically involved with Courtney, a girl from school known for being a little gross. He is so awkward and too nice to reject her, so he ends up dating her for a time. But more importantly, he follows through with the ruse because her father is a musician, something he aspires to be.
In a fit of frustration at her brother's carelessness, Louise screams, "Why don’t you try speaking in words instead of your damn dirty lies?" She knows that stringing someone along is not right.
Interviewing a Bank Robber
Bob gets caught up in a hostage situation, but instead of being concerned, Louise is fascinated by the criminal. She uses the police hotline, feigning distress over her father's situation to interview the robber for her school project. Every time the detective in charge gets close to taking the phone away, she starts screaming and crying, "That's my daddy!"
It's her immediate return to normalcy and carrying on a conversation that makes the outbursts in between hilarious. Louise's ability to flip the switch so easily is almost scary.
Dad and Gene Bond
Gene and Bob don't have much in common, so when they find they both like spaghetti Westerns, it's a miracle. But Louise gets jealous, as Gene's time with her dad cuts into her time with him during their nightly Burn Unit. Worse still, the newfound love of these movies takes Gene away from her at school, too.
Unwilling to admit she's feeling left out and abandoned, she turns to sarcasm and outbursts. She claims they're dumb anyway and she can hang out with anyone. But the attempt fails.
Anti-Slumber Party
It's no secret that Louise has a bit of a "not-like-other-girls" complex. So, when Linda secretly invites her classmates over for a sleepover, Louise is enraged. She doesn't want to hang out with them because she thinks they're all frivolous, thinking only of stickers. Louise has more important things on her mind.
When the girls show up at her front door, she immediately tries to make a blockade to keep them out. She's determined not to make friends, so she sabotages the slumber party.
Afraid of the Dentist
Louise isn't afraid of anything usually, so her irrational fear of their dentist Dr. Yap is strange. But when he discovers she has a cavity that needs to be filled, Louise flees the doctor's office and jumps out a window. But not before yelling at him to not call her parents for 10 minutes. He disobeys and calls them in eight minutes.
The youngest Belcher often uses her wit and sarcasm to prove how smart and fearless she is. When she uses it as a defense mechanism it's a behavior that's all too relatable for the fans.
Hates Bonding With Linda
Linda feels that she and Louise don't bond enough as mother and daughter. Louise gets along better with her father, so to fix this, Linda forces her interests on her youngest daughter. Louise is resistant and refuses to give in to the girlier things to appease her mother. It's just not her style.
Things come to a head when Linda signs them up for a mother-daughter seminar called Phenomimom. Her insane outburst gets her stuck in the Uter-room with her archnemesis, Logan. An escape to laser tag sees Linda and Louise shoot it out.
Lost Her Bunny Ears
Logan, an older boy from a different school, steals Louise's beloved bunny ears. The young Belcher is never seen without them. She loses her mind, wearing a hoodie to cover her head, muttering to herself in the school hallways, and screaming at anything that sets her off in the slightest.
When a biker gang grows fond of Bob's Burgers, Louise clings to them as her saviors. She uses the bikers to intimidate Logan. As she hatches her plan, she laughs maniacally, yelling, "Revenge," as a fiery background highlights her insanity.
