Lincoln: Well, did you guys believe I wasn't bad luck even after I apologized for my actions?

''[The parents cringe again. They're not sure what to do anymore. Albert comes in]''

Albert: Come on, Linc. Remember what I said about forgiveness? I know it's not easy.

''[Lincoln takes a breath and this time, he gives a long pause to think about it. He thinks about actions of his parents and the implications of their actions. However, he looks at Pop-pop once last time.]''

Lincoln (in his mind): He's right. The best thing to do to get over this whole dumb thing is to let it all go. I mean, I guess I did start the lie myself...

Lincoln: Alright, guys. I'm still very mad about what happened. Very mad, but... I guess it was partially my own fault too. I shouldn't have lied just to get some alone time from you guys. So... just this once... (hesitantly) I'll let it go.

[The parents give Lincoln and hug and tear up]

Rita: (crying) We're so sorry.
