I realize the "Green House" is sort of that kind of episode. And I appreciate that you point this out. My only defense there would be that if you saw how Lincoln's "Friends" at school are quick to pounce on him at the slightest provocation in episodes like "Save the date" and "Making the grade" and of course this episode. You will see that Lincoln had little choice in the matter. If Lincoln's sisters cared about him, they'd help him toss the bullies that came to his house back out and the entire conflict could have avoided. And if the bullies wanted a game tournament, why not go to Clyde's house since it clearly had solar panels? Or host it at one of their houses instead? They knew that Lincoln was easy prey and wouldn't have any resistance so they stormed into his house. They make Lincoln lose the environment competition and get to play video games without increasing their own household pollution levels. They kill two birds with one stone. At least from my perspective, Lincoln was like a man with a wallet held at gunpoint by a mugger. He throws down his money so that he can continue to support his family and carry them in his arms, possibly eventually starting his own family, or he holds onto the wallet and gets shot while the mugger takes the money anyway. That at least is my opinion. Thank you for your comment though and you are a good person.
