Spoilers. Don't read if you didn't see it, (or do if you're anxious).

So as the episode starts, Lincoln has to do a school project talking about the day he was born. He rifles through books of his sisters, until he finds his own. The book itself has his character color as well as an infant picture of him. However, the first page is left blank. Questioning this, he goes and asks his parents, who are very hesitant to give him a direct answer. Feeling suspicious, Lincoln goes to ask his sisters what happened on his birthday. From Lori, Leni, Luna, and Luan's descriptions, they involve the following:

- a scientist

- men in black suits

- being carried by an eagle (Leni)

- Lincoln's room being decorated with girl stuff

As the sotyr gets more and more confusing, Lincoln and Clyde get some inspiration from some fictional books which makes Lincoln think he might be adopted. He's not upset about in the slightest, and in fact tries everything he can to see if he's either an alien, or something else. They then saw another book about two babies being switched out, so the boys go around town looking for families that actually might be Lincoln's. Most seem like ideal matches but in the end prove false. Then, they come across a couple with white hair and a girl that looks like a younger Lori that sounds similar to Luan and likes to play the guitar.

Feeling this might be his real family, the boys go back to the Louds and confront the parents about it. Both Rita and Lynn laugh at this as it was completely false. At this point, they reveal the real story:

While on their way to the hospital, the van broke down. Fearing Lincoln might have to be born on the side of the highway, both parents earn a lucky streak with the POTUS and the First Lady traveling in their limo to a safe house in Royal Woods. However, despite getting a new ride, it became clear Rita was going to give birth early, so the First Lady took it upon herself to deliver (the president was going to but passed out). The reason Lincoln's book was left empty was because the parents had been sworn to secrecy about it. It also makes the girl's stories add up. Leni's mention of the eagle was because Lincoln was wrapped in a blue blanket with the presidential seal on it. And the reason the for the girl stuff was because that's all the parents had as far as baby stuff. Sadly, Lincoln can't tell this story to the school since it's a classified endeavor. With that mystery solved, Clyde wonders why Lincoln's hair was white. They spot another fictional book on the floor, and you can guess what happens then.

This was a pretty good episode in general: the ending was definitive and left nothing really open ended. It was also a major troll to those who kept panicking like headless chickens, so this made the episode even more satisfying. Sorry to those who thought Lincoln might be adopted, but yeah, Rita and Lynn Sr. are his real parents no matter how much you say otherwise.

Only thing I kinda don't like was the running gag about the girl's explanations of Lincoln's birth story. But hey, being brought into the world by the freaking presidential couple says alot.

I give it a 9.5/10.
