Raw Deal

"" is an episode of The Loud House.

Plot
Lincoln becomes a hypochondriac when Lucy predicts his day will "end in disaster" for him.

Synopsis
The Loud family is going to be spending a day at a national park. To pass the time, Lucy suggests that they play with her fortune-telling cards. She predicts that Lori will go on a long trip, the universe will open doors for Lola, Luan will get blown away, and Lisa will make a scientific discovery, although Lisa doesn't believe it. When Lucy gets to Lincoln, she predicts that Lincoln's day will end in "tragedy". Almost immediately, Lincoln believes it's real.

When the family takes a break at a gas station, all except Lincoln exit the van. Suddenly, Lori slips on some oil. Lucy says that Lori will go on a "long trip", thus making her prediction true (much to Lori's disappointment, as she was hoping it meant Bobby was going to take her to Italy). As Dad fills the tires with air, he accidentally "blows away" Luan with the air hose. As the Loud kids enter the store, a man named Mr. Universe leaves the door open for Lola. These two turn of events prove that Lucy's predictions are real. Inside the store, Lynn struggles to hold her pee in, Luna gets two bags from a vending machine, Leni falls in love with a pair of hiking boots, and Lana finds a dollar in the toilet. These events only lead Lincoln to become more scared, but Lisa tells him that all these events are just pure coincidence. Lincoln realizes that Lisa's fortune hasn't happened yet, and theorizes that if Lisa's fortune doesn't come true, his fortune won't happen.

The family arrives to the national park. Lincoln tries to hurry his sisters into going into the park so Lisa doesn't make a scientific discovery. Before Lisa can enter the park, a giant egg falls in front of Lisa, and it immediately hatches. What Lisa finds inside is an owl with antlers. This happens to be Lisa's "scientific discovery", causing Lincoln to become disoriented. Lisa then proceeds to show the park ranger her newest discovery.

Throughout the day, the family enjoys the visit to the park, doing fun activities like exploring a cavern, swimming in the lake, fishing, enjoying the breathtaking scenery, and cooking on the grill. Throughout all these activities, Lincoln refuses to partake in any of their activities, giving obnoxious reasons as to what might happen.

Later on in the day, Lisa has set up a press conference to show off the owl with antlers (which she labeled as "dowl"). As the family and several news stations watch Lisa show off her latest discovery, the antlers on the owl suddenly fall off. Lisa examines the antlers, and notices that the antlers say "Made in China". Suspicious, Lisa demands the park ranger to spill the beans. The park ranger admits that it was all a hoax. He did this because nobody has come to the park in years ever since the signature geyser stopped erupting. When Lisa tells everybody that the "dowl" was nothing but a scam, Lincoln realizes that Lisa's fortune hasn't come true, and all his worrying made him miss out on all the fun. Lincoln believes that his day really did end in tragedy, though Lisa still doesn't believe it.

As the family is about leave, Lincoln hears a loud boom in the distance. He looks through a bush, and notices that it's the signature geyser erupting for the first time in years, and he's the first to witness it. Lincoln tries to tell his sisters about his amazing discovery, but they're too tired to listen. When Lincoln proclaims that he did have the best day ever, Lisa, still in a state in disbelief, asks Lucy if she's going to toss her cards away since her and Lincoln's fortunes never came true. Lucy says that there's only one card left. She pulls out the card and says that "the end is near". When Lisa tries to disapprove of this, a "The End" card pops up, making Lucy's fortune come true.
