So in this episode, Lucy and Lynn get into a fight which results in Lynn asking to bunk with Lincoln for the night. Begrudgingly, Lincoln gives in to his sister's request thinking that at least it'll be one night. Right? Well, as one might expect, Lynn is a horrible roommate to have. She snores like a sailor, she punches Lincoln in the arm anytime he flinched, she enacts the Dutch oven on Lincoln, forcing his head underneath the covers to smell the rancid air.....she was literally an utter nightmare. To combat this, Lincoln attempts to do the same to her in hopes of getting her out of his room. Unfortunately, his plan works too well, and it seems that Lynn will be moving into his room permanently.

Now, this was a mixed bag for me. There were some things that I liked about the episode. For one, although it is kind of immature, I chuckled at Lynn's statement of the lack of balls in Lincoln's room. Sure, she meant things like baseballs or basketballs, but the way that she said it earned a chuckle out of me. Even though he failed, I did like how Lincoln dished everything that Lynn did to him back at her. It came off as cathartic. It was also pretty good that Lynn and Lucy made up with each other, albeit they were initially too stubborn to admit that they missed each other. The scene in which they were pelting each other with spaghetti was also humorous.

However, as I have said, I didn't really like Lynn in this episode. She just came off as too vulgar for my tastes. That, and I just felt that she was ungrateful to Lincoln. I mean, she hits him, hinders him from getting sleep by repeatedly throwing a ball against the wall, and need I mention the Dutch oven? I don't hate Lynn, but I couldn't tolerate her in this episode. It's no wonder that Lucy kicked her out when she tried to get back to her room.

Overall, it's an okay episode. Is it something that I would watch repeatedly? Eh......

Final score: 3 1/2 out of five stars
