As the Louds were visiting Lynn, Leni just arrived at Reininger's clothing store. When she changed into her work uniform...Miguel and Fiona approached her probably to talk about what happened to her little sister.

"Hey Leni! Did you hear what happened to your sister?" Fiona asked.

"I saw it before I left. I knew that Mo..no Mr. and Mrs. Loud should've done something about her behavior." Leni said.

"You're telling me. I seen how she acts in all of those sports games." Miguel said.

"Don't remind me of them. She's so superstitious and even forces her own teammates to follow her good luck rituals." Leni said.

"Do we even want to know what those rituals are?" Fiona said.

"Trust me...you really don't. They're just plain ridiculous. It's a wonder why my parents didn't stop it before it went too far." Leni said.

"Were they really that bad?" Fiona asked.

"Would good parents let their kids solve their brothers and take our side when we accuse our brother on stuff? To be honest..my parents haven't been doing their job correctly. And I bet most of the things that they did could cause them to end up in jail." Leni said.

"That's kinda harsh." Miguel said.

"I know it is. My parents may be related to me by flesh and blood, but I can't pretend that they did a good job raising any of us." Leni said before she noticed a customer that needs assistance and went to up. Meanwhile the rest of her siblings were still in the living room..working on some homework.

"Lincoln...Do you think that Mom and Dad will regain custody of us?" Lana asked causing Lincoln to turn around and look at her.

"If they cleaned up their act and set some morals and standards for us then I would've said yes. However...it seems like they haven't done anything to prove that they are great parents for all of us." Lincoln said.

"You've seen how they acted after Lincoln, Lucy and Lily were taken, Lana. They tried to ground us yet they haven't talked to us about stopping the dangerous effects of all of our activities. Face it..their chances to get us back are shrinking as each day passes and if they don't do something soon..we may be going to another family." Luan said.

"Sigh..I hate this." Lana said.

"Lincoln and I hated this too however...after spending a couple of sessions in therapy we realized that this place isn't that bad. Sure we're away from our family, but we can improve ourselves while we wait for them to get their act together. Unfortunately it seems like our family has other plans than getting us back." Lucy said.

"On another note...Lincoln, Do you think that Lynn will stay out of juvie?" Luan said.

"No. I hate to say this, but Lynn has always had an anger problem and no one did anything to make her see the consequences of not getting her anger in check. Or even stopped her from being superstitious. So maybe juvie will let her see what her future would look like if she doesn't change up her act." Lincoln said.

"Wise words Lincoln. I just hope that Mom and Dad are going to open up their eyes and get us back." Lana said.

"We all hope they do. Because if they don't do something soon...they will lose us forever." Lincoln said. As those words sank in...the small group realized that their family doesn't have many chances left to change things. And as much as they hoped that their family would change...

They knew that their family was doomed no matter how much the others try to deny it.
