Many have stated the reasons why I didn't like this episode, specifically Spectre, but might as well share my input because, why not? I was first liking the episode, took a hit when Lynn blamed Lincoln for something he had no control over, but this became softened when Lincoln used his supposed 'bad luck' to his advantage. I was critical about Lisa being easily fooled, but then again, despite the fact the she's the genius of the family, she's still a 4 year old so she does have laps In judgment.

I was OK with the episode, up until the point Lincoln's room got boarded up and he was forced out of the house. The main reason this episode failed was because it stopped being funny. Sure, we had a good Charlie Brown reference at Lynn's game, but it doesn't excuse what the family was doing, and blatant child abuse isn't funny no matter how you try to dress it. It's one of the reasons the Fairly Odd Parents isn't as well liked. At the time of the episode, most people were already critical of Lincoln's Black Sheep and Butt Monkey status, so forcing him to sleep outside and then not letting him back in the house over a silly reason just proved to everyone that Lincoln really is the odd man out in his family. So naturally, no one took it well.

Is Lincoln partially to blame for this? Yes, and he did admit he brought it on himself (something ALOT of oversensitive Lincoln fans overlook), but what his family did was taking it too far. Even when they apologized, Rita's offhand comment about selling his bed and dresser made their condolences fall short. At the end of the episode, this is proved even further by the fact they think Lincoln is 'good luck' now. In essence, the family didn't learn a thing.

This episode could've been better by making it focus on Lynn (as she's the most superstitious of the family next to Lucy) and have her realize that you can't always win, and that luck has little to do with anything. Instead, she's made to look like a bigger jerk than usual and learns nothing at all. Even the parents lost some respect as this episode brought them close to Mr. and Mrs. Turner territory. It also flies in the face of what they stated in Ties that Bind. However, there is one glaring comment Rita said in that episode...

Lola: [pleadingly horrified] "WE THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA GET RID OF US!" [Their parents laugh at such a thought] Rita: "Oh, we would never do that. You're the best ten things that ever happened to us." Lynn Sr.: "There's eleven, honey." Rita: "Yep. Right." (she said this quickly mind you) ''[The girls are relieved that it was all just a misunderstanding. Lincoln looks at his Dad's Easter tie which laughs again]''

​​Now, originally I thought she said 10 because Lily wasn't in the room, but after checking the episode, she was. This really brings into perspective why she said 10. Could be the writer teasing that Lincoln is adopted as some like to think, but given what happened in this episode...

Naturally, the need for justice became strong in this episode, which is why so many Fix Fics came out. I was initially hesitant on making one myself, but due to be asked, because I didn't like how some of them started out, and due to following a certain trope, I made one so it could try to be different.
