The episode opens at The Loud House when Lincoln (holding an Ace Savvy comic and in his underpants) ask Lynn if she wants to read it with him, as Lynn tosses a basketball, she say no because of three reasons.....A) comics are boring, B) she tells him to put pants on, and C) ya later (last one was a joke), as she toss the ball at him. Downstairs, Lincoln is about to watch a DVD, when Luan walk up next to him with her dummy "Mr. Coconuts", he ask her if she wants to watch it with him, she uses Mr. Coconuts to say that science fiction stinks and makes a joke out of it as she walks away agreeing with Mr. Coconuts.
