Study Muffin

"" is an episode of The Loud House.

Plot
Lincoln gets a tutor that all his sisters instantly get crushes on, making it impossible for him to study.

Synopsis
Lincoln and Clyde are walking home from school. Lincoln is upset at the fact that he just got an "F" on his latest test, and because of this, Lincoln fears that he will fail the fifth grade. Lincoln realizes that in order to improve his grades, he needs a tutor. He tries to enlist the help of Lisa, but Lisa's tutoring schedule is full. Lisa suggests to Lincoln to head over to the community college to hire a tutor. Lincoln accepts Lisa's offer and begins heading to the community college.

Sometime later, Hugh, Lincoln's tutor arrives. As the two sit down and begin, Lori walks into the room, and inadvertently lays eyes on Hugh. Almost immediately, she swoons over him. Eventually, all the other sisters arrive (with the exception of Lily) and immediately fall head over heels for him. As the sisters (and pets) begin to crowd around Hugh, Lincoln quickly drags him out.

Lincoln and Hugh try to begin their lessons, but every room they go to, the sisters are there, eavesdropping on the two, much to Lincoln's frustration. Eventually, the last place they try to get some progress done is in Charles' doghouse. Unfortunately, the sisters find out about Hugh's location and attempt to enter the doghouse, inadvertently destroying it. Infuriated, Lincoln calls for a family meeting. Inside the house, Lincoln chews out his sisters for their behavior before ordering them to leave him and Hugh alone so that he can prepare for his upcoming test, which they begrudgingly do so.

With the sisters out of the way, Lincoln and Hugh are able to make progress. Hugh discovers that Lincoln is a really smart person, as he's able to know all the answers to his questions. Because of this, Hugh declares that his work here is done and leaves (by being chased out by Lincoln's madly in love sisters).

The next day, Lincoln comes back from school, and is disappointed to learn that he flunked his test again. As Lincoln plops down on the floor is defeat, he unintentionally mentions his substitute teacher's name, Ms. DiMartino. The sisters hear Lincoln say her name, and Luna tells Lincoln that Ms. DiMartino is so attractive, that all the boys fall for her. Lincoln explains that a few days ago, Mrs. Johnson broke her leg after riding on a mechanical bull, so she hired a substitute to take cover for her. In a series of flashbacks, Ms. DiMartino's attractive looks made Lincoln lose all of his focus. This makes Lincoln realize that these distractions are what caused him to fail his test. Lisa has the solution: Lincoln simply has to NOT look at her. She proves this correct on Lori by asking her what Bobby's full name is. Lori tries to answer, but Lisa repeatedly shows her the picture of Hugh, causing her to lose her focus and start all over. Lisa then deletes the photo of Hugh, allowing Lori to answer the question without losing her focus. Realizing that it might work, Lincoln heads back to school.

At school, Ms. DiMartino allows Lincoln to retake the test, but this time, Lincoln takes the test in his locker to avoid making eye contact with Ms. DiMartino. After taking the test, Lincoln finally gets an "A". Lincoln believes that he will see Ms. DiMartino in the classroom, so he shields his eyes when he walks in, but to his surprise, Mrs. Johnson is back, albeit on a wheelchair.

During gym class, Lincoln is confident that he won't get to see Ms. DiMartino again in another one of his classes. However, she's now Lincoln and Clyde's coach. It turns out Coach Pacowski's leg got run over by Mrs. Johnson's wheelchair, and she's substituting for him. Because of this, all the boys immediately get distracted by her attractive looks.
