User blog:Thomperfan/Why Butterfly Effect is my favorite episode.

All of us LH fans have an episode that we consider to be the best of the best. The one we enjoy more than any other episode there is. Now most people would usually say their favorite episode is L is for Love, A Tattler's tale, Project Loud House, 11 Louds a leapin, Relative chaos, Suite and Sour, the list goes on. Me? Well I definitely think that all those episodes are great, but there's one episode that takes the cake as my favorite Loud House episode of all time. And that episode is: Butterfly Effect. Now in the past few months, I've seen some of you guys claim that this episode was not that good or even bad. So, I think it's high time I gave my full thoughts on it and tell you why I like it more than any other episode.

The plot is so simple. It's about Lincoln playing with his yo-yo, but while doing so, he accidentally looses control of it and accidentally wrecks one of Lisa's experiments. At first, he's about to tell her what happened but after a very funny scene where he imagines how she would react. He immediately decides not to tell her, and what happens is a chain of events that happen involving the sisters.

Now, for those of you who don't know what the Butterfly Effect is, it's the concept that something really little can set off a chain of bigger and more disasterous events and this episode captured that concept so well.

But that's not the only reason this episode is great, this episode does a good job of incorporating all 12 main characters (Yes I do count Clyde. He IS a main character.) greatly. They each have their own thing to do and their moment to shine, and the things they get into weave in with the main story (Lincoln accidentally wrecking Lisa's experiment) very well. Let me show you. Because Lisa's experiment blew a hole in Lori and Leni's room, Lori discovers the picture of Bobby and assumes the two have been dating behind her back. After Lori declares that she and Leni are no longer sisters, she slams the door in a fit of rage, which causes the shelf to fall on Leni's head and make her smart. Now that Leni is more smarter than Lisa. Lisa gives up on science, drops out and gets a job working at a gas station. Because Lisa tutors Lynn so she can stay on her sports teams and she just dropped out, Lynn gets kicked off of her sports teams and is understandably frustrated. Lynn kicks a soccer ball way too hard and it hits Lola in the face, causing her to damage her nose and also receive other blows to the face. Which causes her to give up pageants and start a life of crime, with Lynn tagging along. Lana sees what happened to Lola and starts to become more paranoid and safe and puts herself in a big plastic bubble. Luna writes a song about what happened to her family, it becomes viral, Mick Swagger sees it and asks Luna to join her tour, just for her to be kicked off, because she destroyed her hotel room. Coming back to what happened with Lori, she has also dumped Bobby and Clyde is the rebound guy. (Just so you know I do not have a problem with Lori and Clyde being together, at all) Because Luna left, Luan has had no one to try her jokes out on, so she starts watching cable news, becomes more serious, and decides to give up comedy and become an activist. Because during her activisting Luan liberated Lana's pets, her vampire bat bit Lucy and now she's become one. (Which of course she loves) and going back to what Lincoln did, some of Lincoln's chemicals got to Lily which causes her to grow into a giant. See what I mean when I say the stuff that happens to the characters weaves in with the main story perfectly.

One thing I see people complaining about is the stuff that happens to the characters is too serious and dramatic, I've heard some people say stuff like, Luan being chainsawed to death, Lynn and Lola getting arrested or killed, Lana suffocating and other stuff like that, and to that I say: Seriously? I think your forgetting that this is a slice of life comedy cartoon, not a serious, depressing drama. I doubt the creators would show or have them do any of that, and for me, that was the best part of the episode, each situation the characters get into was so over the top it was funny. (I can REALLY tell Kevin had fun writing this episode)

Another thing I see people complaining about was that at the end it reveals to all be in Lincoln's head. Now be honest, how many of you would've actually wanted this to happen in real life of the cartoon? Huh? Anyone? Yeah, I didn't think so. The way I see it, you should be glad that it was all in Lincoln's head. Speaking of Lincoln he was a very good character in this episode. You can tell he regrets what he did and just wants things to go back to normal. And when you really stop to think about it, the dream sequence Lincoln shows he does care for his sisters a lot. And I also like how Lisa wasn't mad at Lincoln and wanted him to mess up her experiment because it was part of her experiment. And also some people don't like the ending gag, but I thought it was pretty funny, especially seeing how Lincoln reacted to it.

So yeah, I think that about explains why I love Butterfly Effect so much and don't think it gets the hatred it deserves. What do you guys think? Let me know in the comments?
