Well... I see. But if these supposed curveballs don't happen constantly for just Lincoln, then that'd simply be what the average person can go through throughout their lives. Ergo, there is nothing that really suggests that the world is out for Lincoln and Lincoln alone when it is evident that he's simply going through bad times just like everyone else in the world.

As for the examples I have problems with, my biggest gripes were The Whole Picture and Room with a Feud. With the former, while we only saw the embarrasing moments of Lincoln's past, think of it this way: we only saw the embarrasing moments. Who's to say that we weren't just looking at part of the 25% of memories that were unpleasant while the remaining 75% that was unseen was pleasant. With the latter, I think Lincoln was sort of impatient when he decided to throw a fit after just one bad night. If they'd gone on a little longer, I'm sure Lincoln would've warmed up to Lily. It was quite evident that they could most certainly get along in Changing the Baby.
