Luna was downstairs with her parents, demanding they explain the diary entries.

"Look, it's true. We weren't good parents. We really only planned for 6 and we really wanted a boy, but we never hated Lucy or the others." Lynn Sr. says.

"We love you all very much." Rita says.

"You made Lucy think she was a mistake. And saying Lincoln was talentless? Now that's bogus. Majorly bogus! I've been around Lincoln long enough to know he has talent! He's good at many things that you never bothered to show interest in because you were so busy with us girls and how we were doing things worth bragging about when you should have seen the good stuff Lincoln's done!" Luna says, her eyes in furious slits. "But you were too blind to see that he's got good qualities! All you ever thought about was all the bad stuff he did and owned up to!"

The Loud parents look down in shame. Luna was right. They were overlooking Lincoln. And here they were, trying to shame him.

"We are very sorry." Lynn Sr. says.

"How could we have missed so much?" Rita sobbed.

"We need to apologize to Lincoln." Lynn Sr. said.

"His 12th birthday is coming up soon. Start there." Luna says.

"Family meeting!" Lynn Sr. says before dinner.

The girls and Lincoln came as Lucy looked down, scared.

"Lucy, what's wrong?" Leni asked. Lucy just cried.

"Come on, Lucy…" Lynn says, grabbing her hand.

"They said I was a mistake!" Lucy spat out.

"What?! That's not true, right?" Lynn asked Luna.

"Why was Lucy considered a mistake?" Lana asked

"We're not talking about that right now! Listen, you've all taken advantage of Lincoln for way too long. Lori, you tossed a chair at him because Bobby broke up with you. Lynn LJ, you need to stop hitting Lincoln. Lola, you need to stop with the blackmail. Luna, don't think you're getting out of this cause I remember you also hurting Lincoln on a few occasions." Rita says.

"Okay, why was Lucy a mistake?" Lola asked, wanting to know. She looked at Luna.

Luna began telling them everything Lucy told her at the hospital the night she found out.

Lucy was shaking as Lincoln held her.

"Wait, I wasn't planned…then that means…" Lola said and looked down, crying silently.

"Sure, we weren't planning on having more than 6, but we love you all." Rita says.

"Okay, all of you are going to be there for Lincoln's birthday. Got it?" Lynn Sr. asked.

"No. I'm not going." Lucy says, sniffling and running out of the house. She ran to Haiku's house.

"She'll come, trust me." Lori says knowingly as Lucy loved him.

"And another thing, no more threatening your brother. Or any other sibling. If either of us find out you're doing so, you'll be grounded for a month." Rita says. "Understand?"

The siblings nodded.

"Good. Now go wash up for dinner." Lynn Sr. says. They nod and rush off to do it.

Lola leaves the house, mad at her parents. She went to Winston's house, as he was someone she trusted more than most of her other friends.

When she knocked on the door, Winston did indeed answer it. He could see Lola had been crying and let her in. He also offered to let her stay for dinner, to which she said yes.

"Lola, my darling, what happened? Do you want to tell me?" Winston asked, holding Lola.

Lola explains. "My parents said I'm a mistake." She sniffed.

"That is just dreadful! I don't think you're a mistake." Winston says.

"I'm going to be honest. I had a crush on Luke, but I think that was my past and the more feelings I have for Luke, the more me and Lucy will fight, and I don't wanna fight Lucy anymore, so I'm letting Luke go." Lola says.

"Good for you!" Winston says. "Although, I also have something to confess. I…I like like you." He blushes profusely.

"Really?" Lola asked as she was starting to blush herself.

"Yes. I have a major crush on you and I really wanted to confess it, but never found the right time to do it. And now I've confessed." Winston says.

Lana was picking at her food, fighting back tears as she was struggling to even look at her parents. She couldn't believe it.

She got up from the table without even bothering to ask if she could be excused, got on her bike after packing some stuff, and rode over to her friend Skippy's house, sobbing.

"I'm not bailing you two out again. Since everyone thinks they can vent, let me vent! I've been our siblings' mother more than you, Rita!" Lori screamed, not noticing Lynn had snuck out to go after Lana.

"You two are rarely around. I have to bathe Lana and make sure Luna doesn't blow the house up with fireworks, make sure Lynn doesn't kill Lincoln, and lots more! Sure, I have issues, but I literally had to be an adult before I turned 13! I'm tired all the time and Lincoln basically acts like the father figure! He has bags under his eyes and constantly falls asleep at school because that's the only place where nobody needs him to do anything but school things! I'm heading out!" Lori says and walks to the door.

"Lori, please!" Lynn Sr. sobbed.

Gwen felt uncomfortable.

Charity saw this and intervened as soon as Lori headed to Bobby's apartment. Lori knew Bobby had bought his own place.

Meanwhile, Lisa arrives at the place and sees the portals out of control.

"Time to end this." Lisa says.
