Anthony went to The Loud House. When he went in, he saw the Lynns and Lincoln in the living room.
Anthony: So, what did you wanna talk to me about?
Lynn Sr.: Are you familiar with the board game Vegetables Region?
Anthony: I may or may not have heard of it.
Lynn Sr.: Well, we heard that there's gonna be a tournament of it on Halloween, but we still need two more teammates, and I was hoping you would join us.
Anthony: ….Lynn is gonna be in a board game competition?
Lynn Jr.: Yeah, I am. What are you getting at?
Anthony: You hate video games because they're not sports. So shouldn't you hate board games too because they're also not sports?
Lynn Jr.: I don't hate video games just because they're not sports, I hate them because of all the idiots who think that they are.
Anthony: But there are idiots, I mean people, who consider board games sports.
Lynn Jr.: That's not as bad though because at least most board games are challenging competitions. Video games are nothing but pushing buttons.
Anthony and Lincoln: You cannot seriously think that's all there is to video games.
Lynn Jr.: Well, I do.
The three of them continued arguing about this. Lynn Sr. was not happy about that. Then the phone rang.
Lynn Jr.: I'll get it.
Lincoln: You're just using that as an excuse to get out of our discussion.
Lynn Jr.: You can't prove that.
Lynn Jr. answered the phone.
Lynn Jr.: Hello?...Yes I wanna try to answer your trivia question! I don't even care what the prize is!...Can you ask me that again in English?...I really have no idea what you're saying. Here, hold on a sec.
Lynn Jr. put the phone on speaker.
Lynn Jr.: Ok, ask me again.
Guy on Radio: Which of the following of Little Mac's moves does not have him punch? A. Back Air, B. Forward Smash, C. Down Tilt, D. Dash Attack
Lincoln: Lynn, that's a…
Lynn Jr.: No! I wanna answer this myself. Just explain to me what in the wide world of sports this guy is talking about.
Anthony: Super Smash Bros.!
Lynn Jr.: Oh. Well then one of you is gonna have to give me a hint.
Anthony: The answer rhymes with "Brick mestion."
Lynn Jr.: Yeah, that wasn't an overly obvious hint at all. It's a trick question.
Guy on Radio: That is correct! But can you tell me HOW it's a trick question?
Lynn Jr.: Uhh…uhh…uhmmm…
Lincoln: ALL of his moves are punches!
Guy on Radio: CORRECT! You have won 5 tickets to E3! I'm going to hang up now.
Lynn Jr.: What is E3?
Lincoln: It's something you're not gonna like, trust me. So I'll take those tickets for ya'.
Lynn Jr.: …Is this E3 thing a…?
Anthony: A premier trade event for the video game industry? Yes!
Lynn Jr.: Video game industry? No! No way!
Lynn Jr. heard the doorbell ring, answered the door and saw a package sitting on the front porch.
Lynn Jr.: That was fast. I'll be in the backyard, burning these.
Lynn Sr.: Oh, no you don't!
Lynn Sr. took the package from her than handed everyone their tickets.
Lynn Sr.: One for Lincoln, one for Anthony because he helped win them too, one for me so this can be a father-son bonding experience, and one for Lynn Jr.
Lynn Jr.: What?! You're making me go to this stupid video game thing?! Why?!
Lynn Sr.: Because your video game hatred has gotten absurd. It needs to stop. You still owe Smelly Cheese's all that money for destroying all their games, and not to mention what you did yesterday.
Lynn Jr.: Yeah, but…..ok, yeah, what I did yesterday was pretty bad. But I don't see why I have to…
Lynn Sr.: Because surrounding yourself with all those video games might help you stop hating them…..actually, probably not. But it's worth a try.
Lynn Jr.: Are you sure? Because I personally feel that it's not worth a…
Anthony: So, how are we gonna decide who gets to pick who the 5th ticket goes to?
Lynn Sr.: Oh. There is only ONE way to decide that, whoever wins our first practice game of Vegetables Region!
Lincoln: Awesome!
Anthony: I can think of many other things I'd rather be doing, but alright!
Lynn Jr.: Can I send an email real quick first?
Lynn Sr.: Sure, I don't see why not.
A Wynaut was outside, waving his hand in front of his face. Lynn Jr. went over to the computer and sent an email.
Anthony: What did she do yesterday?
Lincoln: She saw a kid wearing a Mario shirt, then jumped out of Vanzilla and tackled him.
Anthony: ….What KIND of Mario shirt?
