The Whole Picture

"The Whole Picture" is the sixty-fifth episode of The Loud House.

Plot
Lincoln accidentally erases all of his old childhood photos, so he and Clyde try to recreate them before Lincoln loses his memories.

Synopsis
Lincoln finally got his first mustache hair, so he and Clyde take a picture of it. Happy with the way the image turned out, Lincoln prepares to transfer it to the computer, so it can belong with all of his childhood photos, like his bath with Lynn, Lori feeding him his first ice cream, and his first mechanical pony ride with Luan and Lucy. However, before he can put the photo in, the computer informs Lincoln that the file that holds all of his photos is full, and asks him if he wants to make room for the new photo. Lincoln clicks on "Yes", but this causes the computer to send all of Lincoln's childhood photos to the trash bin. Lincoln frantically tries to stop this, but to no avail.

Lincoln checks the bin, but much to his sadness, the bin is completely empty, meaning the photos are truly gone. Clyde says that he did the same thing once, but Howard and Harold saved his photos with cloud storage. Lincoln asks his dad if he has cloud storage, but he says that he does not. Lincoln sadly declares that his childhood is gone, but realizes that he can simply recreate them. Lincoln tries to convince his sisters to help him, but they're all heading to the mall because there are sales on products like studded chockers, coffin linings, dual flush toilets etc. When Clyde sees Lana's hat on the handrail of the stairs, he gets the idea to act as all of Lincoln's sisters in the recreated photos. Lincoln is uncertain if it will work out, but Clyde assures him that he and his dads have been studying acting scenes for years.

Soon, Lincoln and Clyde attempt to recreate their photos, like so: After getting the photos developed at the photo booth, Lincoln and Clyde check them out, but the photos turn out to be disastrous. Despite this, Lincoln and Clyde think the photos came out great. While going through his checklist, Lincoln sees that his next memory is for his 7th birthday party.
 * First, they try to recreate Lincoln's bath with Lynn, with Clyde playing Lynn. After setting the timer on the camera, Lincoln and Clyde jump into the bathtub. However, Clyde suddenly farts, causing a bubble to form. The moment the camera takes the picture, the bubble pops, causing Lincoln to jump out in disgust.
 * Second, Lincoln and Clyde try to recreate Lori feeding Lincoln his first ice cream. With the camera rolling, Lincoln mentions to Clyde that he looks exactly like Lori. Clyde looks at his own reflection, and immediately thinks he is Lori, causing him to suffer a nosebleed and pass out the moment the camera flashes.
 * Third, Lincoln and Clyde try to recreate the mechanical pony ride with Luan and Lucy. Since there are three people in this memory, Rusty steps in to be Lucy, while Clyde dresses up as Luan. With the camera rolling, Lincoln, Clyde, and Rusty get into frame and start the mechanical pony, when suddenly, the mechanical pony's vigorous movement flings the three off the ride the second the camera takes the photo.
 * Lastly, Lincoln and Clyde try to recreate his photo of Santa. They ask Mr. Grouse to play Santa, which he agrees to. With everything set up, Lincoln hits the timer on the camera, when suddenly, a series of events leads to the Christmas tree to topple onto the three, where the camera immediately takes the photo.

After inflating a whole bounce house by mouth, Lincoln claims that his 7th birthday didn't have a bounce house, but a Lucha Libre theme. After redesigning the whole set, Lincoln is prepared to take the photo, but at the very last second, Lincoln claims that it didn't have a Lucha libre theme, but a circus theme. After several unsuccessful attempts to remember the entire memory, Lincoln proclaims that his memories are starting to fade away, and declares that they must do all of the other memories. After a montage of taking photos, the sisters arrive and question Lincoln what he's doing with all of their stuff. Lincoln claims that things will be fixed once he develops the film, but when he opens up the camera, he realizes that he forgot to put the film in. Heartbroken at this, Lincoln faints.

When Lincoln regains consciousness, the sisters tell Lincoln that Clyde told them the whole story (just before he passed out after seeing Lori again). The sisters want to help Lincoln recreate the photos, but Lincoln decides to throw in the towel, declaring his childhood is gone. When he mentions he can't remember what he did during his 7th birthday party, Lori mentions it was a magician's act. Soon enough, the sisters begin to reminisce all of Lincoln's childhood memories, which leads to Lincoln telling the viewers that with his sisters, they'll help him remember his childhood. As the Loud sisters engage in a group hug with Lincoln, Clyde, who has regained consciousness, pulls out his phone, and takes a photo of the group hug.

Lincoln and Clyde upload the photo to the computer, and Lincoln declares it's a new start for the photo library (now with cloud backup). Lori suddenly yells out who used up all of her lipstick, causing Clyde to grin nervously.

Trivia

 * This is the first time Lincoln is shown as a baby. Also, it shows that Lincoln has had his white hair since he was a baby.
 * Lucy is also shown as a baby. She has her gothic attire, giving us more evidence that she has had the same gloomy demeanor throughout most of her life, and isn't just going through a goth phase.
 * During Lincoln's seventh birthday, the trees had green leaves, and there was no snow. That means Lincoln was most likely born during Spring, or Summer.
 * As demonstrated in this episode, Rusty has a tendency to be confused by the personalities and appearances of the Loud sisters.
 * While dressed as Lucy, Rusty behaves like Luna.
 * Rusty tells Clyde to get in touch with his "inner Lola", despite the fact that Clyde was dressed as Luan.
 * This episode is based on Darin McGowan's own experience of accidentally deleting his photos from his computer.
 * The Louds mention the time Lincoln chipped his tooth, but they don't say how it happened.
 * This is the second episode to give some context as to how/when he chipped his tooth; the first being the title card for "Baby Steps" that showed him as a baby with a full tooth.
 * Lincoln had his tooth chipped since Lucy was a baby.
 * This is the first episode of the second season in which Howard and Harold are mentioned, but do not actually appear.
 * In Lincoln's picture showing him in the bath with Lynn, she has a missing tooth, which is a reference to her original design.
 * Before Lincoln's photos were deleted, he had a staggering 3,212,016 files in his folder.
 * On Lincoln's seventh birthday, there were 16 cups, meaning that he celebrated it with both parents, 8 sisters, and 5 other guests.
 * Lincoln's check list was titled "Recreate All My Most Cherished Memories & Think Of A Shorter List Title, List".
 * When Lincoln and Clyde are doing the Lucha Libre photo, Clyde says the same lines Lynn said in "Space Invader", when she was about to pounce on Lincoln.
 * Ronnie Anne is the only one of the ten supporting characters who is neither featured nor mentioned.
 * Lincoln and Lily were the only Louds who Clyde didn't dress up as.
 * According to the image of Lori feeding Lincoln ice cream, she had an extra pair of eyelashes when she was younger.
 * There are many references to older episodes in this episode.
 * Lynn doing Lucha Libre is a reference to "Space Invader".
 * Lincoln is wearing his Ace Savvy costume from "Sleuth or Consequences".
 * Clowns at a birthday party is a reference to "Funny Business".
 * Mr. Grouse and Christmas Time combined is a reference to "11 Louds a Leapin'".
 * This episode most likely takes place after "Sleuth or Consequences" and "Undie Pressure", because Lincoln has his red undies.
 * This episode most likely takes place before "Study Muffin", since the Louds didn't have cloud storage on their computer before Lincoln accidentally deleted his photos, and during "Study Muffin", Lisa mentions that she has photos of Hugh saved on the Cloud after deleting one on Lori's phone.
 * When Lincoln and Clyde are in the parking lot, a van that is the same model as Vanzilla, but in red, appears.
 * Season 2 Episode 7 is the first episode where Mr. Grouse appears in both stories of the episode.
 * Episode 7 of Season 2 is the second episode after Episode 17 of Season 1 (House Music and A Novel Idea), where a voice actor who isn't a part of the main cast did voice work in both stories of that episode.
 * In both instances, it's John DiMaggio.
 * In the Hebrew version of the episode, in the scene in which Lincoln and Clyde look at the reimagined photos, in the picture in which Clyde is dressed as Lori and bleeds from his nose, the blood is missing, probably due to censorship issues (even though every other time Clyde bleeds in his nose in the Hebrew dub, the blood is left intact).
 * The Polish title of this episode is "Foto Pamięć", which means "Photo Memory".
 * Irony: When Lincoln asked his sisters to help him restore the pictures, he didn't mention they were deleted. Because he explain the whole story, they ignored him, otherwise, they would have helped him sooner.
 * Moral: With family, your childhood memories are safe.

Errors

 * When Clyde and Lincoln are going to take the picture from when Lori first fed Lincoln ice cream, the Lori costume that Clyde puts together includes having fake breasts, but the picture is supposed to happen when Lincoln is a toddler, and Lori is grade school aged, so she wouldn't have breast development at that time. Therefore, Clyde would not have needed to use the fake breasts.
 * When Lincoln, Clyde, and Rusty are recreating the picture of Lincoln, Luan, and Lucy on the kiddie ride, Clyde and Rusty are dressed as the current Luan and Lucy, even though the picture takes place when they're much younger.
 * Lincoln's freckles are missing in some of his childhood photos, and in the flashback of him playing with Rita's cosmetics. It's possible he did not develop them until he was older.

Running Gags

 * Lincoln and Clyde recreating the former's childhood photos.
 * Clyde trying to "get into character" whenever he portrays one of the Loud sisters.
 * Lincoln having trouble remembering what he did during his 7th birthday party.
 * Characters mentioning lasagna.
 * Lincoln and Clyde messing the pictures up.
