One of the Boys

"" is an episode of The Loud House.

Plot
Lincoln wishes he had ten brothers instead of sisters, and Lisa gives him a glipmse into that reality.

Synopsis
Lincoln and Clyde are looking through the fridge, finding something good to eat. After finding a jar of peanut butter, Lincoln sticks his finger in the peanut butter and sticks it in his mouth. He then attempts to stick the same finger back into the jar. Lola sees this and yells at Lincoln to have some dignity. Luan arrives with Mr. Coconuts to deliver a joke, when suddenly, Lincoln burps in front of Luan, causing her to tell a joke that jabs at Lincoln. When Lincoln complains that life in the Loud House is always like this, he wishes that he had brothers instead of sisters.

That night, Lisa, who took into consideration at Lincoln's wish, has made a watch that can make a portal that will transport Lincoln into the world of his dreams. Lincoln takes the watch, and Lisa reminds him that he needs to return back to his own world within 24 hours. With that in mind, Lincoln jumps in.

Lincoln lands in the hallway, but notices no subtle changes. Suddenly, the sisters (who are now boys) exit their rooms. Lincoln is ecstatic at this, and to his surprise, they all want to go to Dairyland (with the brothers saying that it was Lincoln's idea). After their trip, they go over to Gus' Games and Grub to enjoy pizza. They arrive back home, where they greet their parents (who are wearing inverted clothes) and quickly dogpile on Dad. Lincoln discovers that what used to be his bedroom is a closet, and his bed is in Lynn and Lars' (Lynn and Lucy's) bedroom. Lincoln is having such a fun time here, that he decides to stay in this world forever and tosses the watch away.

The next day, Lincoln wakes up and receives two horrible punches: one from Lynn (for waking him up) and one from Lars (for scratching his coffin). Lincoln attempts to use the bathroom, but to his horror, is revealed to be a pigsty. Luke (Luna) agrees that the bathroom is messy, and says that he and Lincoln should clean it. But Luke's method of "cleaning" involves him using Lincoln's head to scrub the toilet. Lincoln walks out and is mocked by his brothers because of this. He then trips and hurts his thumb. Loni (Leni) then tells him to just shake it off, rather than console him like his sisters. Leon (Lily) then crawls towards him. Lincoln then asks him if he wants to kiss his "boo-boo" to make it better, to which Leon responds by biting his thumb, causing the brothers to laugh even harder.

Later, while getting ready for a date with Ronnie Anne, Lincoln sees Leif and Lexx (Lana and Lola) wearing his shirts. They then inform him that because they didn't have any clean shirts at the moment, they decided to wear his shirts instead, much to his annoyance. The brothers then proceed to make fun of him for his relationship with Ronnie Anne. Lane (Luan) then pulls Lincoln's pants up to his chest, then messes with his hair, annoying him even more. The brothers then dogpile onto him before giving him a "Loud House-style Dutch oven."

Lincoln, no longer able to take this world anymore, decides to head back to his own world. With five minutes left on the clock, Lincoln looks through the garbage can where he threw the watch away, but to his horror, the watch is gone. It turns out that Lexx found it and decides to play "Keep Away" with the watch, to which the other brothers join in. Lincoln tricks his brothers into dogpiling on Dad again, and uses that distraction to take the watch back. With a few seconds left on the clock, Lincoln opens a portal and jumps in (not before Lynn pulls down his pants one last time).

Lincoln wakes up in a world where he believes he's back in his own world. Suddenly, the brothers barge into his room, and Loki (Lori) asks him if he's okay. Lincoln is confused as to why his brothers are suddenly nice now, but to his horror, he realizes that he's in a world where everything is the exact opposite (Lincoln is in a house with one girl and ten boys, with him being the girl, named "Linka").

Lincoln suddenly wakes up, realizing the entire ordeal was just a dream. The sisters, who heard Lincoln scream, barge into his room and ask if he's okay. Lincoln says that he's fine and that he's glad to have sisters. When Leni shows Lincoln a watch laying on the floor, Lincoln (mistaking it for the portal watch) quickly destroys it. The causes his sisters to leave, except for Lori and Lola who lash out at Lincoln for destroying the watch that was actually Lori's, who then tells him he'll pay for it. Lincoln thinks she means he'll be getting a swirlie, but Lori assures him that he'll be paying her back with money. The moment they leave, Lincoln tells the viewers that his life is better with sisters and likes them for who they are, except for Lynn, who acts the same way as the boy Lynn.

Trivia

 * Lori has different feet models in Clyde's fantasy (more cartoonic) than in the epilogue of the episode (more realistic).
 * Clyde breaks the fourth wall by popping his fantasy balloon of Lori on the beach.
 * This is the first segment where Lincoln is voiced by Collin Dean, due to Grant Palmer hitting puberty after the previous episode.
 * The counterparts of the 4 oldest Loud siblings are voiced by the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles actors: Seth Green (Leonardo) as Lori's counterpart Loki, Sean Astin (Raphael) as Leni's counterpart Loni, Greg Cipes (Michelangelo) as Luna's counterpart Luke, and Rob Paulsen (Donatello) as Luan's counterpart Lane.
 * As for the other 7 Loud siblings, their counterparts each share the same voice actor/actress as them.
 * Although Luna and Lucy don't speak in this segment, their male counterparts Luke and Lars do.
 * While all 10 of Lincoln's brothers have different interests like his sisters do, in terms of personality, they all seem to be the same unsophisticated ruffian. In other words, his brothers are like having 10 Lynns.
 * Unlike his sisters, who while sometimes can be rough with Lincoln, but still care deeply about him, his brothers are all very harsh, and don't seem to show any sort of love towards Lincoln. For example, Lexx at one point calls Lincoln a loser, which is an insult that none of his sisters have ever called him.
 * However, his female counterpart Linka's versions of his brothers seem to have the same caring nature towards her as his sisters do for him.
 * Most of the brothers are disrespectful towards their father, as they dog pile onto him whenever they have a chance.
 * Leon was the only Loud brother who didn't participate in dogpiling Lynn Sr. and Lincoln. He also didn't take part in the "Loud House-styled" Dutch oven directed towards Lincoln either.
 * Lynn is the only Loud sister whose male counterpart shares the same name as her, mostly because Lynn can also be a male's name.
 * In fact, Lynn's male counterpart is pretty much the same as his female counterpart.
 * Ronnie Anne is mentioned in this segment, but doesn't actually appear physically.
 * This is the second segment where everything was a fantasy, after "Butterfly Effect".
 * From this segment onwards, Leni's sleeping mask is now blue and features a pair of closed eyes.
 * This is the third time Lincoln was naked onscreen, after "Making the Case" and "In Tents Debate".
 * With this episode, Grey Griffin is the voice actress who interpreted the most characters in one segment.

Running Gags

 * Lynn punching Lincoln and pulling his pants down.
 * The Loud brothers insulting and making fun of Lincoln.
 * The sisters annoying Lincoln.
 * The Loud brothers dogpiling on Lynn Sr. and shouting "Say uncle!".
 * Lincoln mentioning his sisters, leading to another character being confused at this and him replying that he was referring to nuns.

Errors

 * During Lincoln's flashback where his sisters rejected Lincoln's ideas of where to go, they all rejected the idea of Dairyland, even the ones who were voting for it in "In Tents Debate". Also, when the Loud brothers announce they're going to Dairyland, Lincoln states that his sisters would never want to go to Dairyland, despite at least Lana having been shown to love it in both the aftermentioned episode and "Toads and Tiaras".
 * Lincoln only had 24 hours to leave the dimension, which began and ends at 10:30. When he only had five minutes left, instead of being 10:25, it was 10:30 on the clocks on the second floor.
 * Also, when they were playing "Keep Away" the clock marks there´s only 1:20 minutes left, and the living room clock marks 10:30.
 * When Leif said "Bye Mom!" to Rita, he spoke in Lana's voice.
 * When Lincoln came out of the portal after leaving the brother dimension, his silhouette shows that he has his normal hairstyle instead of his Linka hairstyle.
