No Such Luck

"" is the sixty-sixth episode of The Loud House.

Plot
Lincoln finds himself with unexpected free time after his family worries that he is bad luck, but soon it goes too far, and he is banned from all the family's activities.

Synopsis
While eating breakfast, Lincoln learns from his sisters that they have planned activities later in the day. Because of this, Lincoln sneaks his way out of the kitchen, and next to the staircase. Lincoln then explains to the viewers that with ten sisters, his schedule is always filled up, and he never gets a day to himself. After heading upstairs, he runs into Lynn, who informs him that her baseball game is coming up, and she needs the whole family to support her. Although Lincoln tries to evade out of this, he's forced into coming by Lynn. At the game, the whole family cheers for Lynn, while Lincoln looks on with boredom. Lynn's team, the Squirrels, is leading 3-0, unfortunately, the next four pitches causes the rival team to score four runs, causing the Squirrels to lose 3-4. As the family heads home, Lynn chastises Lincoln because her team was on a winning streak, but ever since he came, the streak broke. Because of this, Lynn declares Lincoln as "bad luck", and bans him from coming to her activities.

The next day, Leni wants to invite Lincoln to her activity, but Lynn interferes, and tells Leni not to bring Lincoln, since he's just "bad luck". This causes Lincoln to get an idea. He convinces Leni that his presence might cause something to go wrong, and Leni immediately believes him. Pretty soon, Lincoln's little white lie spreads to the rest of the Louds, and they proceed to ban him from their activities. As a result, Lincoln now has all the time to himself. Lincoln spends his days playing video games, reading comics, and drinks milk out of the jug.

Eventually, Lincoln's lie goes a little too far. Lincoln is forced into eating his breakfast in the living room, he isn't allowed to join his family going to the movies, his bedroom gets boarded up, forcing him to sleep outside, and he's not allowed to come to the beach to celebrate an achievement Rita and Lynn Sr. received. Lincoln tries to reason with his family, but their superstitious attitudes don't convince them. Realizing his family doesn't believe him, Lincoln resorts to one last tactic.

At Lynn's baseball game, Lincoln disguises himself as the mascot of the Squirrels so he can prove that he is not bad luck. However, the Squirrels are struggling to win the game. After Lynn gets two strikes, Lincoln begins to wonder if he really is bad luck. Suddenly, Lynn manages to hit the ball, and the Squirrels end up winning the game. When Lincoln reveals himself to his family, Lynn apologizes to Lincoln for thinking that he's "bad luck", and the rest of the family follows suit, with Rita revealing she had sold all of Lincoln's furniture, much to Lincoln's shock.

In the end, the family is at the beach, and Lincoln is happy that his family no longer sees him as bad luck, but only when he's wearing the squirrel costume, much to his annoyance.

Trivia

 * The title is a common phrase said when someone is asked a question if something went their way, and they respond with "no such luck".
 * This episode aired on March 2017, and by coincidence in this episode, there is a calendar which has 31 days, and starts on a Wednesday. March is the only month in 2017 which matches with that calendar.
 * The theme music for the opening card of the Season 1 episode "The Green House" is played when Lincoln was first left home alone in this episode.
 * Lisa's shelter from "April Fools Rules" is mentioned in this episode.
 * This is the second time Lana hogties Lincoln, the first being "House Music".
 * This is also the second time that Lincoln uses a megaphone from outside the house, the first being "Brawl in the Family".
 * This is also the second time that Rita and Lynn Sr. are seen in their swimsuits, the first being "Suite and Sour".
 * However, in this episode, Rita wears a different swimsuit.
 * Lily says Lincoln's name for the first time in the show.
 * From this episode onward, the new Nickelodeon Productions logo is shown.
 * Despite selling his entire furniture and boarding up his room, Lincoln's room is shown to be fine again in the next episode, "Frog Wild".
 * It is possible that his family was able to get his furniture back and fix his room, or like most cartoons, everything was reset back to normal once the episode ended.
 * This is the most recent episode to be written by Karla Sakas Shropshire, and storyboarded by Darin McGowan. These two haven't collaborated on an episode ever since the early Season 1 episode, "Making the Case".
 * In "Ties That Bind", the parents said they would never kick any of their children out the house, but they did so in this episode, which completely contradicts that.
 * Also in this episode, Lincoln experienced what he was afraid of in "Ties That Bind". Interestingly, both episodes were written by same writer.
 * This is the second time where Lincoln told a lie to his family that went out of control, the first being "Dance, Dance Resolution".
 * Moral: Lies can go a long way, and you should never live off of them, because you'll eventually run into trouble. / You can't always win. / Blaming others for your own failure is immature.
 * Irony: One of the baseball commentators is named "Pep", but has a very negative personality and doesn't get very excited in the action. The term "pep" means having a lot of energy and being excited.

Errors

 * In the description from Zap2it, it says Lincoln's sisters banned him from their activities, when it was also Lynn Sr. and Rita who banned him.
 * During the scene where Lynn informs Leni to not take Lincoln to her event due to Lincoln's "bad luck", Lynn's eyelashes are missing.
 * Luan's scrunchie is brown instead of yellow on the calendar.
 * Lincoln could have chosen to sleep on the couch rather than outside.

Running Gags

 * A commentator named Pep not being happy.
