I liked Operation Dad too.

A pretty good episode and defiantly a good first choice for a 30 minute Special. You understand Ronnie Anne's desire to see her dad more and the plans she comes up with are good and funny at times. Not to mention Punk Ronnie Anne looks awesome. Also, the ending lesson is a good one for both parents and kids, one I've seen done many times before in shows featuring kids with divorced or busy parents

However, one nitpick I have  with the episode, but it is a weird gripe. It's the fact that everyone thought Ronnie Anne couldn't pull of being a bad kid and as someone he knew her when she was first introduced as a bully or at least an antagonist I'm think, um yeah she can be bad what is the matter with the rest of you not seeing that. This really irked me in the episode. Now I'm not saying Ronnie Anne is evil or a super bad kid, but given her personality and what we've seen of her in the past, not just with Lincoln, but also other people at Royal Woods School seemingly being afraid of her, I can believe she could go bad, at least temporarily. It's the same with Lynn and Lola, I don't think their bad and all of the Louds have shown they can get angry and lose it when pushed far enough, but it seems to happen to characters like Lynn and Lola the most. Thus, I can see them or Ronnie Anne becoming bad and actually pulling of the bad girl look. So, I'm kind of mad that the other characters were so stupid as to not believe Ronnie Anne could be bad.

Another grip I have is while it really confirmed Maria and Arturo really are divorced, which brings me to one of my nitpicks. Maria herself does not make much appearance in the episode. Even so, her and Arturo just act like awkward strangers, rather then a ex-married couple. I do wish there could have been more of a interaction. Not saying that they needed to be sour against each other like any ex-couple, but there could have been much more.
