Teachers' Union

"Teachers' Union" (originally titled "Teacher's Union") is the fourteenth episode of the third season, and the one-hundred-fifteenth episode of The Loud House.

Plot
To try and make gym class better, Lincoln and Clyde set Coach Pacowski and Mrs. Johnson up.

Synopsis
During gym class, Coach Pacowski announces that today, they're going to go through the obstacle course. As the students go (and struggle) through the obstacle course, Mrs. Johnson arrives, and Coach shows off how smitten he is. When the students take note of how head over heels Coach is for Mrs. Johnson, Lincoln and Clyde realize that if they can get the two together, gym class might be a less painful experience.

At the Loud House, Lincoln asks Lori for advice on how to impress someone, and she says that the they need to talk about what their interests are. At school, Lincoln and Clyde sneak into Coach's office, and discover a medical book (thinking he's studying to become a doctor), photos of him at some of the world's most famous landmarks (believing he's a world traveler), and overhear Coach say he has a boat (believing he uses it to go on his adventures). During lunch, Lincoln and Clyde stage a discussion on how interesting Coach is right next to Mrs. Johnson, and Mrs. Johnson is impressed with what she hears. Going back to Lori, Lincoln learns that the next thing to do is for the man to ask out the woman. Grabbing some supplies, Lincoln and Clyde convince Coach to ask out Mrs. Johnson, and get him dressed up for the occasion. Looking fancy, Coach enters Mrs. Johnson's classroom, asks her out, and she agrees.

The next day, the kids cheer for Lincoln and Clyde, since they managed to get Coach to let them play with the parachute. However, when Lincoln and Clyde join in, they discover Coach all gloomy. They confront him, and Coach reveals that the date went terribly, since what he told Mrs. Johnson wasn't appealing to her at all. They point out the details like the medical book, the landmark photos, and the boat, but Coach reveals that he has the medical book because of his foot being infected, the photos of him at the world's famous landmarks were taken at a nearby mini-golf course, and the boat he referred to yesterday was a houseboat he and his mother live in. Lincoln and Clyde confess that they were responsible for the date going wrong, since they were the ones who tried to coax him and Mrs. Johnson to get together, just so gym class would be less painful. Now knowing the story, Coach admit that he won't punish the boys, but he'll kill them for interfering with his personal life. Running away, the boys attempt to evade their enraged teacher through the obstacle course. During the chase, Coach suffers a massive blow to his head.

In the Nurse's office, Coach doesn't remember what happened, and eventually falls for the nurse, since she's a master at mini-golf.

Sometime later, Mrs. Johnson arrives to her class, angry because of her lousy date last night, and orders a pop quiz, much to her students' chagrin. Suddenly, the school janitor arrives to pick up the trash, and Lincoln and Clyde, realizing that Mrs. Johnson is head over heels for the janitor, immediately get to work on getting the two together.
