This episode hadn't even aired yet, but it has caused quite a surge of debate with many people coming to the assumption that it will finally confirm a long-standing theory: that Lincoln is adopted. As many of you may know already, I hate that theory with a passion. One of the worst aspects of the theory is cliche. Really, the theory can be easily applied to any show that has a sibling acting oddly in comparison to the others. There is literally (oh, great, now I'm saying that...thanks a lot, Lori) no evidence to suggest that Lincoln is adopted...well, the opposite is a possibility as well. Since there isn't any evidence to support he wasn't adopted, therefore without hard evidence, you can't disprove it. But I ultimately lean towards Lincoln not being adopted since there isn't anything to indicate it.

Look, if any of you were adopted...more power to you. I only take offense when some try to push for the theory to be true. It's like how I discussed LGBT representation and that if it's pushed for the sake of publicity, I find it harming the community in the long run. Anyone who wants the theory to be true have a sense of entitlement where they believe their vision on the show trumps the writers' vision. And when things start going in the wrong direction, they whine and complain. Besides, you have a character in the show that is already adopted; Clyde. I don't see why you should push Lincoln to be adopted as well. Really, all of this started because of Rita's comment. If anything, I feel the show wouldn't use that same joke because it only worked once. No, I don't see it as foreshadowing of anyway, but just a slip up Rita made.

(More to come.)
