"Project Loud House" is the ninth episode of the first season of The Loud House.
Plot
Lincoln struggles to get his sisters out the door so that he can get to school on time.
Synopsis
Lincoln has spent weeks constructing a project based on his family to present in his class. Knowing the destructive nature of his sisters, he wants to get all ten out the door as quickly as possible in order to protect his project. He manages to get them ready by dressing Lily, helping Lucy with her poems, avoiding Luan's bucket pranks, giving Leni her acne cream, helping Lisa with one of her potions, helping Lynn find her rollerskates, and settling a fight between the twins.
Just when Lincoln thinks everything has turned out alright, Lori gets into a fight with Bobby over the phone, and refuses to come out of her room, leaving the family without transportation, since she is the only kid in the family with a driver's license, and Mom is away. More things then start to go wrong; Leni's skin turns blue because the "acne cream" was really one of Lisa's experiments, Lily takes off her clothes and walks around naked, and the twins fight over their sandwiches. Lincoln manages to solve all their problems, and he gets Lori out of her room by impersonating as Bobby over the phone and settling the fight.
While helping Luna pack her equipment into the van, and only ten minutes to spare before school starts, Lincoln accidentally leaves his project in the driveway. He realizes that as the car starts pulling out, but he manages to save it just in time, only to drop it after slipping on one of Lynn's skates. Feeling sorry for their brother, the girls tell him that they have a plan to help him pass in such a short amount of time.
At school, Lincoln is seen concluding his presentation by saying how his sisters will always be there to help him through the chaos of the house, and their plan is revealed to be standing still to create a life-sized version of the project. The presentation is a success, and Lincoln is given an "A" for his project, but it gets revised to an "A-" after Luan drenches Mrs. Johnson with her water bucket prank. Luan feels triumphant, while Lincoln and the other nine sisters are in shock towards what Luan did.

Trivia
- Lincoln's project is based on the show's first promotional poster.
- His final line in this episode, "And I wouldn't trade it for the world," is one of the lines from The Loud House Theme Song.
- The color scheme of the characters on the title card seems to match the color scheme they had in the episode "Left in the Dark".
- If one is quick to notice, Lucy's extra well done eggs is shaped like a corpse.
- When the girls notice Lincoln's despair from the destruction of his project and explain to him how they can fix it, they're all standing in the same group formation as they were in "Heavy Meddle" when they were there cheering him on to kiss Ronnie Anne. Lori, Luna, Lily, Lisa, and Lynn are on one side, and Leni, Luan, Lana, Lola, and Lucy are on the other.
- In this episode, Lily can be seen walking the same way she walks at the end of the intro.
- Considering Lori fell for Lincoln pretending to be Bobby over the phone, it is unknown how she and Bobby actually settled the tux issue.
- After crashing down the stairs, Lynn says "todo bien", which is Spanish for "all good/all is well".
- Lincoln's sisters' preferred serving of eggs:
- Lori - Hard boiled
- Leni - Egg whites
- Luna - Sunny-side up
- Luan - Funny-side up
- Lynn - Scrambled
- Lucy - Extra well done
- Lana and Lola - Deviled
- Lisa - Fried
- Lily - Extra goo-goo gooey
- Innuendo: Lincoln steps in Lily's soiled diaper.
- Irony: Lori says it is a hassle getting Lincoln out of the house in the morning, despite that he has been doing that to his sisters throughout the episode.
- When Lincoln accidentally destroys his diorama of himself and his sisters, and he cries and calls himself stupid for it, Lori, who threw a hissy fit and refused to go to school because Bobby didn't want to wear the tuxedo she picked out for the school dance, tells Lincoln to stop being dramatic.
