It was Monday evening, July 21, 1986 in The Loud House, and Lori and Bobby were getting ready for another big summer evening.
"So, Bobby. Are you ready for another great summer evening?" Lori asked happily.
"I sure am, dear. Ready for an epic date?" Bobby asked as he shows Lori some tickets.
"Wow! A-Truck-alypse Now! That's so radical, honey! I'm coming for real!" Lori said happily before Leni, out of nowhere, grabs the tickets from Lori and Bobby unimpressed and her smile disappears, "Hey, that wasn't nice, Leni!"
"A-Truck-alypse Now...this does not sound like a romantic comedy, guys!" Leni coldly stated.
"It's better. An arena show where mutant trucks crush each other!" Bobby shouted happy.
"Yeah, I'm literally not making Lori do that," Leni replied bitterly.
"But, Leni. Please you have to let me go with Bobby," Lori confessed.
"Lori, you must listen to me right now. You can't take Lincoln everywhere you go all the time," Leni replied bitterly.
"But, Leni. Please, I..." Lori gives in, "All right. Bobby, why don't you just take Lincoln tonight?" Lori asked.
"What?! What will we even talk about?" Lincoln and Bobby said in surprise.
"Come on, guys. You'll have fun together. I know it," Lori confessed.
"OK," Lincoln and Bobby both headed out. Lori sits down on the couch and sighs.
"Hey, not to worry. Bobby will be okay with just Lincoln and him," Leni replied softly.
Suddenly, Maria enters the house.
"Oh, Lori. Hey!" Maria welcomed her but Lori gasped in happiness upon her presence.
"Mother! There you are!" Lori shouted happily as she hugged Maria.
"And it's such a great time to see you again," Maria said happily, "So, what are you doing right now, dear?"
"Well, I was supposed to be hanging out with Bobby today, but Leni wanted him to do something I didn't, so Leni made me tell him he could take Lincoln and now I have nothing to do right now, mother," Lori explained Maria.
"Well, you certainly came to the right person. I'll hang out with you in the meantime," Maria said happily.
"Really? Oh, thanks, mother!" Lori said happily as she hugs Maria.
"So, Lori, Maria, how would you both feel about romantic comedies?" Leni asked.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhh…" Lori said nervously.
"I don't know about this," Maria said nervously.
"Okay, I'm in," Lori accepted.
Meanwhile, sometime later, Maria, Leni and Lori have finished watching a bunch of Romantic Comedies on TV.
"That was literally so funny! Right Lori, Mama?" but Maria was asleep so Lori decided to call for her.
"MOTHER!" Lori woke Maria up successfully.
"I'm awake! I'm awake! What I miss, Lori?" Maria exclaimed.
Just then Bobby and Lincoln come home after a great time at the truck show.
"WAHOO!" Lincoln and Bobby both shouted happily.
"That was an awesome celebration of senseless destruction! Wasn't it, Dad?!" Lincoln shouted happily.
"Lincoln, Bobby Honey, you guys are back! So how was the rally?" Lori said happily as she hugged them.
"It was awesome, Mom! I kind of wish you went with us!" Lincoln confessed.
"Yeah! Me, too. It didn't feel perfect without you here," Bobby agreed.
"I told you you guys would hit it off," Leni replied coldly.
"How do we end this?" Lincoln asked.
"I have no idea, kid," Bobby explained.
Tuesday, July 22, 1986
It was a very hot afternoon at the beach, Lori and Bobby were in their swimsuits sitting on a blanket under an umbrella. Lori, wearing her pink one-piece swimsuit, was holding a bottle of sunscreen.
"Bobby honey, would you get my back, please?" Lori asked softly to Bobby.
"I can't right now, dear. Lincoln just got done in the changing room," Bobby explained nervously.
Lincoln, now in his orange swim trunks, was at the top of the hill on his bike.
"HEY, MOM, DAD! YO, MAMA, PAPA! UP HERE!" Lincoln called.
"Lincoln?" Lori said in surprise.
"Yeah. We had so much fun yesterday that I invited our son to hang with us!" Bobby explained.
Lincoln shreds down the hill and stops in the sand, burying Lori in a pile of sand.
"WOOOOOOO!" Bobby shouted happily as he and Lincoln do their handshake, "What's going today, boy?"
"Hey, Dad, last one in the water is a loser!" Lincoln shouted happily as he and Bobby rush off to go into the water while Lori looks befuddled under the sand.
Later that evening, at Jean Juan's French Mex Buffet, Lori and Bobby were on another date there, but Lincoln, in formal attire, shows up.
"Hey, Mom! Hi, Dad! Sorry I'm late." Lincoln exclaimed before he sits with his parents.
"Lincoln, there you are. I was starting to worry you wouldn't be here," Lori said happily to Lincoln.
"Yeah, no worries, son. We wouldn't start without ya," Bobby explained before he does his handshake with Lincoln with Lori looking a little lonely and starts speaking in a thick Hispanic accent while holding a baguette, "I challenge you to a duel, Monsieur Lincoln!"
Lincoln then grabs a churro.
"Oh, it is on, Señor Padre!" Lincoln shouted and the two of them fight with their food with crumbs falling onto his mother Lori's head.
Back at home, Lori was on the phone, while Maria and Lucy are with her and Bobby is calling.
"Bobby honey! Where are you? I haven't heard from you all day! You're where? With Lincoln? Stay right there. I'm coming over," Lori said in fear before she screams in frustration and puts her phone away, "It was really bad enough when they treated me like a third wheel, but now they're hanging out without me? I don't think I can take this! I gotta make things right with them!"
Lori starts running out the door but Maria tried to stop her.
"Lori, wait!" but Lori left, "Never mind."
Lucy was reading Edwin's Sensitivity Cookbook.
Oh, Edwin, I'm so glad you're not like mortal men," Lucy said happily.
Lincoln and Bobby are playing at Gus' Games and Grub when Lori intrudes.
"Bobby, please. This has got to..." Lori said in fear but...
"Hey, Lori! Look! I won you these!" Bobby gave Lori a bouquet of roses and she gasped in happiness and hugs him, "Thanks for being so cool about me hanging with Lincoln. You know, when you took Lincoln in as your son after he was born and when we started dating during sixth grae, I promised him that I would be a great father to him, and now I feel like I am a great father after all. It's like Lincoln completes us. Sorry, dear, what were you gonna say?"
"Uh...nothing. So, uh, why don't you be a friend of mine and go finish your game, honey?" Lori asked nervously.
"Thanks, dear. We're still on for the county fair tomorrow, right?" Bobby asked Lori.
"You bet. We're really riding the Tunnel of Love together," Lori said happily.
"Sweet! Lincoln and I will meet you there at 5:00," Bobby replied her.
Lori suddenly shudders and speaks to herself in fear, "This is really becoming such a pity."
Back home, Lori is talking about it to Lucy, Leni and Luna.
"What do I do? I don't even understand. I raised Lincoln for the past eleven years, most of that time, I raised him and Lily by myself, all these years," Lori explained to her sisters, "I don't know why I keep bringing him into our dates, and for whatever reason, it's making his father Bobby so happy. Bobby's saying to me that he is a great father to Lincoln."
"Look, Lori. If it pleases Bobby, you shouldn't ruin it for him, I mean, it's not like he's forgotten about you," Maria said to her.
"Hmmm. Do you guys have any other ideas?" Lori asked nervously.
"I know! Why don't you hang out with your older daughter, Ronnie Anne?" Leni suggested, "She could be like the older daughter you always wanted to have, Lori."
Lori and Lucy just awkwardly stare at Leni for that statement.
"Uh, good idea, Leni, perhaps Lori and Ronnie Anne can have some mother and daughter time together," Maria said nervously.
"You know, this happens in my book. Griselda thinks she's losing Edwin, so she makes him jealous and he totally comes crawling back. Well, flying, actually," Lucy explained.
"Wait a minute, make Bobby jealous... yes, that's it! But wait, how do I make Bobby jealous?" Lori said nervously before the doorbell rings and Lucy answers it and sees that it is Ronnie Anne once she opens the door.
"Hi, fellas. Is Lincoln around?" Ronnie Anne asked.
"Ronnie Anne, there you are!" Lori said happily as she hugged Ronnie Anne.
"Oh, hi, Mom. How are you doing?" Ronnie Anne asked.
"Not very good actually. Because Lincoln's starting to spend more time with Bobby. And I'm not feeling the same," Lori explained as Lucy smiles at Ronnie Anne's reaction to Lori's presence and Ronnie Anne comes to and sees her, "Hey, Ronnie Anne, how would you like to join me for some mother-daughter time at the county fair tomorrow."
"That's sounds like a great idea, Mom," Ronnie Anne replied, "It seems like you and I are both gonna do good at the fair tomorrow."
"How are you going to make Bobby jealous with someone who's lifeless and covered in blood? Oh, wait. That's exactly what Griselda did," Lucy read the message.
"I don't know, Lori. I still don't think this is such a good idea," Maria said nervously but Lori patted her head.
"Mom, you worry too much. It'll all be fine. Now, if you'll excuse me, Ronnie and I have to get ready," Lori replied.
As Leni, Lori and Ronnie Anne both go upstairs, Maria looked concerned.
"This doesn't look that good. I need somebody to keep an eye on Lori, just to make sure she doesn't get into any trouble," Maria said to herself.
Suddenly, a beautiful girl about the age of 15 named Sam Sharp entered the house.
"Hi, have any of you seen Luna around here?" Sam asked the family and Maria suddenly got an idea.
"Wait. I just got an awesome idea. I think I should have Luna do the job since Sam arrived," Maria said to herself as she went near the kitchen, where Luna was making a smoothie, as she hides behind the door frame with Sam, "OK, Sam, you can do this. Just go in there and ask her."
"Will do, pretty one. Okay. Here goes," Sam said happily and she walks into the kitchen, "Uh, hey, Luna."
"Oh, hi Sam! I'm just making a radical smoothie. You want one, bro?" Luna replied.
"Uh, no thanks, dude. Look, Luna, there's something that Lori's mother-in-law wanted me to ask you," Sam replied.
"Of course, Sammie. You can ask me anything," Luna replied.
"Um… Would you, like to… Go to t-the County Fair tomorrow? You know… Just the 2 of us?" Sam asked Luna, "Please say yes. Please say yes. Please say yes."
"Is Sam asking me out… On a very special date? No one beside her has ever asked me that for a while. Apart from the others thinking that I was bisexual. Hm, well going there does sound like fun, so going with Sam seems perfectly alright. And how can I possibly say no? And Sam looks so cute when she's nervous and blushing," Luna turned to Sam, "Sure thing, Sam. Count me in!"
"Rock on! Uh, I mean, awesome. See you there," Sam said happily while walking backwards and she suddenly bumps into the doorway and laughs nervously, "Clumsy me. Bye!" she runs out as Luna giggles.
Wednesday, July 23, 1986
It was the big day at the county fair. Lori and Ronnie Anne were sitting at a public bench together, enjoying the nice summer weather. Just then Sam came up.
"Hi, Lori! Hi, Ronnie Anne!"
"Sam, what are you doing here?" Lori asked
"I came here to keep an eye on you," Sam asked.
"What do you mean by that, Sam?" Ronnie Anne asked.
"Yeah, Ronnie Anne and I were about to have a fun day together," Lori said to Sam.
"I still don't think this is such a good idea. And I wanna be here with Luna just in case things go wrong," Sam said nervously.
"Well, I'm afraid to say this to you but, you're wasting your time," Lori said to them.
"Yeah, because this plan is going to go well," Ronnie Anne stated.
"Sam, bro! Where are you?" Luna called for her.
"Oh, I'm also here on a summer date. I invited Luna with me! Speaking of which, I gotta go!" Sam finished as she leaves and Lori giggles before Bobby and Lincoln came.
"Hey! It's my fair maiden!" Bobby said happily, "Ready to have fun, Lori?"
"Oh yeah, honey! I am so ready," Lori said happily, "But since three is an odd number, I invited someone to join us: our daughter Ronnie Anne."
"Hi, fellas," Ronnie Anne said to them.
"That sounds great, especially that we're all here together as a family," Bobby said happily, "Hey, I'm gonna grab us all some mini-doughnuts."
"Woo-hoo!" Ronnie Anne cheered, "Doughnuts!"
"Yeah. Doughnuts for a family. Or as I like to call them, bro-nuts," Lincoln suggested as he and Bobby do their handshake.
"Bro-nuts," Bobby giggled while walking away.
"Mom, what are you and Ronnie Anne up to?" Lincoln asked suspiciously.
"Whatever do you mean, hon?" Lori asked nervously.
"I mean, this!" Lincoln referred to Ronnie Anne, "She's my sister!" and then catches on, "Oh, wait a minute. I get it. You're trying to make Dad jealous by bringing Ronnie Anne with you."
"Wait, what? No, I'm not. I'm just trying to make things right according to Sam," Lori confessed.
"Well, it won't work," Lincoln informed.
"Uh... well, I just wouldn't have to do anything if you would just please stop hogging Bobby and please give him back to me," Lori replied solemnly.
"He's not just your boyfriend, he's also our father," Lincoln and Ronnie Anne explained.
"Let me guess. He completes us," Lori informed solemnly.
"Yeah, it does. Look, Mom. My point is, there's plenty of Daddy for everyone and you'd better get used to sharing him," Lincoln explained before Bobby returns with the doughnuts.
"Check it out, everyone," Bobby said in happiness, "I got chocolate for Lori and Ronnie and powdered for me and my bro."
"Alright, Mom and I have chocolate," Ronnie Anne cheered.
"Ronnie Anne, calm down," Lori said in concern.
"Here you go, big girl," Bobby said softly as he offers the chocolate doughnuts to Ronnie Anne and Lori.
"Thank you, Daddy," Ronnie Anne said sweetly as she and Lori started eating the doughnuts together.
"Mmmmm. These doughnuts are delicious!" Lori said happily while eating her doughnut, "Thank you very much, honey!"
"Come on, Dad! Let's hit the Whirly Gig," Lincoln suggested.
"Right behind ya, son! Hey dear, you coming with us?" Bobby asked.
"Uh, yeah. Ronnie Anne and I will be right behind you," Lori replied, "Come on, Ronnie Anne. We got a Gig to catch!"
"Right with ya," Ronnie Anne replied.
Somewhere else, Luna and Sam were walking in.
"So, Sam. What do you wanna do?" Luna suggested.
"Um, I don't know, anything sounds fun, as long as I'm with you," Sam replied.
"Oh, now Sammy!" Luna giggled before Sam notices the others going to the Whirly Gig, and then, she notices the Big Drop.
"Hey, Luna, I know what we should do! Let's go to the Big Drop," Sam suggested.
"Way ahead of you, bro!" Luna replied happily.
On the Whirly Gig ride...
"This is gonna be awesome! I tipped the guy to make it go faster so we get super dizzy," Bobby said happily.
Afterwards, Lori and Ronnie Anne get on.
"Alright, Mom! Time to make ourselves super extra dizzy on the ride!" Ronnie Anne shouted in happiness.
"Oh, yo... you want me to ride to make you dizzy?" Lori feigned as she laughed, "I do that to you? Oh, you're so sweet, hon."
"Lori, honey?" Bobby looked over.
"Uh, hey, Dad, check it out. Someone left a perfectly good corn dog in here," Lincoln informed Bobby.
"Sweet! Splitsies?" Bobby suggested as he cuts the corn dog in half. They then eat it and the ride starts. Lincoln and Bobby are having a blast while Lori and Ronnie Anne are having a good time of their own before Sam sees everything as she and Luna rise to the top.
"Ooooh," Sam winced.
"Sam, are you OK?" Luna asked
"Yeah, I'm fine," Sam replied.
Just then the ride plummets down. They all scream. Sam was holding onto Luna as she could. The ride then comes to a stop and Sam was still screaming.
"Sam. Sam! SAM!" Luna shouted and Sam stops screaming.
"Wait, Luna. Are we still going on?" Sam asked nervously.
"Sam, the ride stopped," Luna explained.
"Oh. Right," Sam notices that she is holding Luna before she lets her go, "Sorry, Luna. I had no idea that it was still going on."
"It's okay, dude. It was kinda nice," Luna replied.
Later, at the ball toss game, Lori knocks over a pyramid of milk bottles.
"A winner!" Carny shouted.
"Yes!" Lori shouted happily as she receives a giant teddy bear and hands it to Ronnie Anne.
"Heya, dear!" Bobby greeted Lori.
"Oh, Mom, thanks for winning this for me," Ronnie said to Lori, "You have such a good arm. Do you work out?"
"What's going on here?" Bobby asked suspiciously.
"Uh, hey, Dad! Look! Tic Tac Toe! Or as I like to call it, Tic Tac Bro!" Lincoln threw balls at the panels and gets three X's in a diagonal row.
"A winner!" Carny shouted as he gives Lincoln a remote controlled airplane as Lincoln offers it it to Bobby.
"Hey, this one is for you, Dad," Lincoln replied.
"Whoa! I've always wanted a remote controlled airplane!" Bobby said happily and he tries it out but he accidentally hits Lori with it.
"GYAH! Oh, my head," Lori said drowsily before she falls over.
"Come on, bro!" Bobby replied before they begin to head off.
As they head off, the plane hits Lori again and she accidentally tosses Ronnie Anne at the strength tester, where someone hammers the lever and launches Ronnie Anne up to the bell right on her head.
"OW!" Ronnie Anne screamed in pain.
"A winner!" Carny shouted as he gives Lori a stuffed orca.
"Mom, I can't believe you would toss me towards the strength tester!" Ronnie Anne said to Lori in anger.
"Sorry, Ronnie Anne," Lori said nervously.
Just then, Sam and Luna come up to the game.
"Oooh, look Luna! One of those throwing games!" Sam said happily.
"Watch this, Sam!" Luna explained before she throws a ball and knocks over the bottles, "All right! Rock on, party bros! I win!"
"A winner!" Carny shouted as he gives Luna a Winnie the Pooh plush.
"Awesome!" Luna shouted happily.
"Wow, Luna. You did it. That Pooh Bear plushy is all you," Sam said happily.
"Oh, thank you, Sammy!" Luna shouted happily before she kisses Sam's cheek and runs off. Sam then turns red and lovingly follows her.
Later, Lori walks over to Flip's cotton candy cart with Ronnie Anne.
"Two cotton candies, please," Lori suggested before she gets out her change and hands it over to Flip for two cotton candies.
"Here you go," Flip said happily as Lori and Ronnie Anne took the cotton candies and they started eating them. Just then, Bobby came to them.
"Hey, dear. You and Ronnie Anne eating cotton candies together?" Bobby said to them.
"Why of course, hon," Lori replied to Bobby, "This cotton candy tastes really good."
"Yeah, they sure make good cotton candy," Ronnie Anne agreed.
Just then, Lincoln anxiously gets Bobby snow cones.
"Here, Dad. I got us snow cones. Or as I like to call them, bro cones," Lincoln demanded.
"Sweet! Let's see who can get a brain freeze first," Bobby cheered as he and Lincoln eat their snow cones and get brain freezes at the same time and cheer, "YEAH! "WAHOO!"
With that, Lincoln and Bobby both run off while Lori and Ronnie Anne continue eating their cotton candy.
"Wow, some bros they are, Mom," Ronnie Anne said to Lori.
"They sure are, sweetheart," Lori agreed as they continued eating their cotton candy.
While eating their cotton candy as they go on a walk together, they then see Bobby and Lincoln doing their handshake, causing them to run into the booth together.
"Hey, Ronnie Anne. Why don't we snuggle in closer?" Lori said softly.
"Sure thing, Mom. Let's do it," Ronnie Anne agreed as she and Lori snuggle closer in the booth.
Just then, Bobby comes into the booth with them.
"Wait, Lori dear. Are you snuggling with Ronnie Anne?" Bobby asked.
"Yeah, it's kind of what Ronnie Anne and I do when we're in a photo booth," Lori explained, "Isn't that right, Ronnie Anne?"
Just then, Lincoln showed him a head hole mural.
"Hey, Dad, check it out! Cowboys on dinosaurs! Wanna take a broto?" Lincoln asked.
"Good call, my man!" Bobby replied and Lincoln looks slyly at Lori and Ronnie Anne who are a bit more nervous at this. The photo booth's photos have developed and it shows that their photo op op did not go well. As Lori tries to get through with it, she notices that her best chance is to use the Tunnel of Love and gets in with Ronnie Anne.
"Lori, my dear, the Tunnel of Love is our ride," Bobby confessed.
"I know, honey, but... but you were off with Lincoln, so..." Lori confessed nervously before Lincoln came in showing Bobby another ride.
"Dad, look at that ride! The Toilet Bowl! Or as I like to call it, the Toilet Browl!" Lincoln shouted happily.
"No way! Let's go get flushed, boy!" Bobby shouted as he and Lincoln head off to the Toilet Bowl.
"Bobby! Wait!" Lori shouted in fear.
"Join hands, you lovebirds," The operator said as he starts the ride as Lori groans in fear, "What an adorable family."
"This really isn't going my way, is it Ronnie Anne?" Lori asked solemnly.
"Come on, Mom. Let's just get on the ride already," Ronnie Anne said to Lori.
The ride starts and Lori and Ronnie Anne go in. Just then, Sam and Luna come up.
"Look, Sam! The tunnel of love! You wanna ride it?" Luna suggested.
"Oh, Uh, really? You wanna do that?" Sam said in surprise.
"Yes! Yes I do!" Luna said happily.
"Well, OK, then. Let's go!" Sam said happily as Luna drags her to the ride.
Later, inside the tunnel, both of the boats are going through.
"Sammy, bro, this is so amazing!" Luna said happily.
"It is?" Sam asked her.
"Yeah, it is. And it's even better, cause I'm with you," Luna said happily.
"Aw, shucks, Luna," Sam said happily before she notices Lori, "Hey, Luna, look! It's Lori!"
"Hey, Lori, over here!" Luna called for her.
"Yeah, and she's with Ronnie Anne?" Sam asked in surprise.
"Why?" Luna asked in surprise.
"Well, remember when Lori was feeling a little lonely about the fact that Bobby was spending more time with Lincoln?" Sam asked.
"Yeah, I think so," Luna replied.
"And do you remember how she wanted to be with Ronnie Anne to make Bobby jealous?" Sam asked.
"Yeah, dude. I do remember," Luna replied.
"Well, I don't think it's working. Come on, let's listen," Sam suggested as she and Luna get closer to listen.
"Look, Ronnie Anne. I just don't believe this," Lori said solemnly to Ronnie Anne, "This was was supposed to be a romantic date with Bobby, and now look where I am. Just with you, Ronnie Anne. It's just that... I should be on this ride with Bobby. But maybe I feel like I don't really have a boyfriend anymore. Bobby doesn't seem to care about being with me right now."
"Hey, it's okay, Mom," Ronnie Anne said sympathetically to Lori, "Sometimes, your boyfriend may feel like spending more time with Lincoln right now.."
But Luna and Sam were both in awe. Suddenly, Lori and Ronnie Anne hear them and turn around, "Sam? Luna? What are you guys doing here?"
"We were just going on the ride, and we heard you and Ronnie Anne talking," Luna explained.
"And we want to let you know, that what you're saying is not true. Bobby does care about you, it's just that he was spending more time with Lincoln lately," Sam explained.
"I understand, but at least Ronnie Anne was able to support me during this time," Lori said to them solemnly as they continue with their Tunnel of Love ride.
Somewhere else in the fair, Lincoln and Bobby have just gotten flushed out of the Toilet Bowl.
"TOILET BROWL!" Lincoln and Bobby shouted as they do their handshake.
"That was awesome! Up for number two, Dad?" Lincoln asked.
"You read my mind, son! Be right back," Bobby replied and heads off to the bathroom.
"I was talking about the ride, but that's cool," Lincoln replied.
Just then, Luna came to Lincoln.
"Lincoln, bro, I need to talk to you about something," Luna explained.
"Sure, Luna, what is it?" Lincoln asked.
"Hey, bro, It's about your mother, Lori," Luna answered.
"What about her?" Lincoln asked.
"Well, Sam and I both know that Lori was being kind of jealous and was just spending a lot of time with your sister Ronnie Anne," Luna explained, "And neither of us think her plan was all that good. But, I think you're spending a little too much time with Bobby."
"Why is it a problem?" Lincoln asked.
"Look at Lori!" Luna said as she shows him to Lori softly crying, and Sam and Ronnie Anne both sitting there consoling her.
"Miss, it's going to be okay," Sam said softly.
"Yeah, it's gonna be all right, Mom. Bobby will come back eventually," Ronnie Anne said softly.
"I know he's my boyfriend...but now I don't think I have someone to be with anymore!" Lori continues sobbing her eyes out.
"No, Mom, calm down. It's gonna be OK. You are a strong mother," Ronnie Anne said softly.
"I know you are. You're the mother of three adopted children," Sam said softly to Lori while Lincoln looks on with remorse.
"What have I done? You're right, Luna. I've got to make this right with my dear Mom," Lincoln replied before Bobby comes back.
"Alright, boy! Ready to hit the broller coaster," Bobby shouted.
"Listen, Dad. We need to talk. I don't think we should hang out any longer by ourselves," Lincoln explained.
"What? Why is that, Linc?" Bobby confessed in fear.
"It's not you. You're awesome. But we're not being fair to Mom. She misses you," Lincoln explained while Bobby whimpers, "What I'm saying is... be strong, Dad. We can still do bro stuff once in awhile. But for now, maybe you should find Mom and take her on the Tunnel of Love."
"Good idea. The way you look out for others is what makes you such a great son," Bobby said happily before he goes to Lori.
"You did good, bro. You did really good," Luna smiled at Lincoln.
Sometime later, the happy couple have just finished their roundabout on the Tunnel of Love.
"Thank you for riding the Tunnel of Love. Watch your step, lovebirds."
As Bobby takes her hand, Lori notices Lincoln and Ronnie Anne by themselves, while Sam and Luna are sitting with them and goes to them.
"Hey, Lincoln, my darling. Bobby told me what you did. Thank you. And… I'm very sorry about what happened, kids," Lori replied softly to Lincoln, "I admit, I was just jealous that you two were spending more time together. I should've realized that you guys really had something."
"No problem. I'm sorry too, Mom. I'm sorry that I was hogging Dad around.
"Yeah, and besides, Lincoln was running out of bro puns," Lincoln explained to Lori.
"You know, Lincoln. Your father was right. You both definitely make great kids of mine, my dear son Lincoln and daughter Ronnie Ann," Lori said softly to Lincoln and Ronnie Anne before she kissed them in their foreheads.
"Of course he is, bro. He's the best," Luna said softly as she proceeds to kiss Bobby's cheek.
"Wait, but... what about me?" Sam asked nervously.
"You too, Sam," Luna said happily and she kisses Sam's cheek.
"You'd better get back to your boyfriend, Mommy," Lincoln explained.
"But what are you gonna do, kid?" Lori asked nervously.
"Don't worry about me. Now that I think about it, I've already got a real friend, 2 friends actually. They're Sam and Ronnie Anne," Lincoln informed.
"I understand that.," Ronnie Anne said to them.
"Well, aside from that, we sure had a great time here at the County Fair," Lori said happily.
"And it was during our summer vacation," Lincoln added happily, "It was very much worth it."
"Come on, everybody. Let's go home," Lori said happily as they all went home.
Later, back home, Lincoln and Ronnie Anne are hanging out once more, and Sam was with them.
"Ronnie Anne, I hope you didn't feel left out while I was hanging with our father," Lincoln explained.
"Don't worry, brother. I had a really fun time hanging out with our mother," Ronnie Anne said happily to Lincoln.
Suddenly, there's a knock at the door, and Bobby comes in.
"Hey, is Lori here?" Bobby asked.
"Yeah. Come on in. So, are we cool, Dad?" Lincoln asked.
"Totally, boy," Bobby replied as he and Lincoln both do their bro handshake.
"Uh, can I do it with you guys?" Sam asked.
"Of course!" Lincoln and Bobby replied and Sam then does the bro shake with them.
"I appreciate you being so mature, Dad. Especially after the very fun time I'm told I just had with my mother," Ronnie Anne said happily.
"BROSHAKE!" Bobby, Sam, Lincoln and Ronnie Anne all shouted and they perform it altogether before Lucy appears out of nowhere and stop.
"Ronnie Anne... your mother would like to thank you for hanging out with her at the fair," Lucy explained happily, "Further, she would like you to have this gift as a remembrance of your time together as mother and daughter."
"For me?" Ronnie Anne said happily as she opens it up and finds it's the photos of her and Lori from the photo booth along with a thank you note, "From Mom?! Gee, why thanks, Mom."
"No problem, sweetheart," Lori replied.
"That's my bro," Lincoln said and he, Bobby, Lucy and Sam were all laughing.
Later that evening, Sam was coming into the Loud House, Lori is in the living room writing in her diary.
"Hey, Lori. Where's Lincoln?" Sam asked.
"Oh, he's out doing something with Bobby," Lori explained.
"And you're all right with that?" Sam asked.
"Yeah, like you said, Bobby hasn't forgotten about me. He really still loves me with all his heart," Lori said romantically.
"Great job, Lori. I'm really proud of you," Sam said happily as she and Lori then hug as Lori kisses Sam on the cheek, "So, Lori. Where's Luna? I'd like to have something with her."
"She's up in her room," Lori explained.
"Oh, okay. Thanks Lori," Sam thanked as she went up to Luna and Luan's room, where Leni was laying down in Luan's bed and Luna was brushing her hair while listening to a soft rock tune, "Hey, Luna."
"Oh, Hi Sam!" Luna greeted.
"I came up here to see if you wanted to hang out," Sam replied.
"Of course! I had SO much radical fun at the county fair yesterday," Luna said happily.
"Yeah, me too, Luna," Sam agreed as she and Luna then look at each other and blush, "So, Luna. I have something I wanted to show you."
"What is it you want to show me?" Luna asked Sam.
"Ta-Daaaaa!" Sam reveals a purple and black necklace with Luna's name on it.
"Whoa! A purple and black necklace?" Luna said happily.
"Yeah. Chunk and I went to the mall and I saw it in a display window and I thought: Man, I bet Luna would really like to have it," Sam explained romantically, "So, I got for you. Do you like it?"
"Oh, Sam bro, I love it!" Luna replied happily as she hugs Sam for the present, "Thanks for the gift, bro."
"You're welcome, Luna," Sam replied happily.
"Oh, and I have a surprise for you as well," Luna explained.
"Oh boy! What is it?!" Sam said happily.
"Close your eyes and you'll get your surprise," Sam then proceeds to close her eyes as Luna brings her face closer to hers so that their noses are touching, "Alright, Sam. You can open them now, "Sam then opens her eyes to find that Luna is kissing her on the lips, "Mmmmwah! That's your surprise, bro."
Sam then starts moaning in ecstasy.
So, I was wondering if you wanted to go for a nice little evening out at the park," Sam suggested, "Does that sound great to you?"
"The park sounds great! Let's go, bro!" Luna said happily as she and Sam then start walking out together, holding hands with one another.
