High Stakes and Low Tea
10 episodes
The Pringles are back for another year of Edwardian-era hijinks with a 70s soul! Following their move to the city tenement, Arthur is more determined than ever to "strike it rich," leading the family into a series of chaotic misadventures involving the 1904 World’s Fair and the first-ever "motor-car" race. Twelve-year-old Jamille has officially become the neighborhood’s youngest etiquette coach, though her lessons are constantly interrupted by her eight-year-old "shadow," Nicki. Nicki has traded her marbles for sophisticated fans and lace, mimicking Jamille’s every move—usually with disastrously funny results. From Michelle’s secret poker games with the Mayor’s wife to Arthur’s steam-powered laundry machine that "cleans" clothes into shreds, Season 2 proves that while the Pringles may be down, they are definitely not out.
1The Fancy Fan Fiasco
Determined to reclaim their social standing, Jamille prepares for a high-society garden party, with 8-year-old Nicki mimicking her every "sophisticated" move. The plan for elegance falls apart when Nicki accidentally uses Arthur’s experimental "super-grip" industrial glue to repair Jamille’s heirloom lace fan. By the time they reach the party, the fan is permanently stuck to a serving tray, a local stray cat, and eventually, the host's expensive wig. Meanwhile, Michelle tries to convince the landlord that the "rhythmic banging" coming from the basement is a new modern music trend rather than Arthur’s failing steam-laundry machine.
2The Great Velocipede Race
When a group of local boys claims that "fine ladies" can't handle the new high-wheel velocipedes, Jamille decides to defend the family honor by entering the neighborhood’s first street race. Not wanting to be left behind, 8-year-old Nicki builds a "matching" miniature bike out of old crates and a spinning wheel. As Jamille struggles to stay elegant while pedaling at top speed, Nicki’s chaotic racing style and Arthur’s "rocket-booster" steam attachment turn the race into a city-wide chase. Meanwhile, Michelle tries to win back the family’s silver tea set by betting on the girls to beat the neighborhood bully.
3The Etiquette Empire
Jamille decides to open a "Finishing School" for the neighborhood children to earn extra money. Nicki joins as the assistant instructor, but her version of "proper tea service" involves a slingshot and a very confused bulldog. The class becomes a hit when the local kids realize Jamille's "graceful movement" lessons are actually great for dodging the police during street games
4The Motor-Car Mayhem
Arthur enters a race with a car powered by cooking grease. Jamille and Nicki try to act like "Grand Prix" models.
5The Phantom of the Tenement
The girls think their building is haunted. Nicki dresses as a ghost to scare Jamille, only to find Arthur’s "Automatic Sheet-Folder" is actually the culprit.
6The Duchess of the Docks
Jamille tries to convince a visiting Duchess she still lives in a mansion. Nicki accidentally reveals the truth by inviting the Duchess to a game of "Street Poker."
7The Steam-Powered Haircut
Arthur’s new barber-bot goes haywire. Jamille has to hide a terrible haircut with a massive hat, while Nicki tries to start a "Short Hair" trend.
8The Great Election
Michelle runs for "Neighborhood Captain." The girls act as her campaign managers, handing out "sophisticated" flyers that are actually just drawings of Jamille.
9The World’s Fair Scare
The family finally reaches the Fair! Jamille gets lost in the Hall of Mirrors, and Nicki uses her "Mini-Me" skills to find her by tracking her sister’s perfume.
10The Pringle Jubilee (Finale)
The Pringles throw a massive street party. Arthur’s giant fireworks invention nearly takes out the city, but the family realizes they prefer the tenement to the manor.
