User blog comment:AustinDR/The Worst Lincoln Torture Episode?/@comment-30592229-20170115210728

Wow. I never thought Anyone would consider Green House A Torture episode. Here's my take on it.

Sure Lincoln is getting a Raw Deal, but through the power of manipulation he solves all his problems before he gets tortured, (they were just telling him what would happen if he couldn't lower his energy use, no one ever actually bullied him in the episode, aside from Agnes, but she wasn't torturing him)

Then Lincoln becomes a hypocrite and goes over board with the cutting back, just so he and his friends can play a game, bring unfair to the girls. And the worst part is, all Lincoln had to say was "no, you guys have been nothing but jerks to me, and I won't let you play here, go let your own house get into the red zone" because those kids were very east for Lincoln to say know to.

And to the people complaining about the cycle, he did that willingly, none of the sisters made him, he felt bad, and was simply making up for his misdeeds.

So, while the episode is atrocious, I would by no means call it a torture episode for 2 reasons,

1. if it's deserved, it isn't hard to watch, and you don't mind it

2. Lincoln did everything to himself near the end.
