Once she is gone, Hannibal kills a guard and escapes. After Clarice slays Buffalo Bill and rescues his captive (Meg), Hannibal calls up Clarice. While he doesn't plan on pursuing Clarice, Hannibal asks her to return a favor which she is unable to do. He ends his call by stating that he's having an old friend "over for dinner" as he sees Frederick get off an airplane.

• American Beauty – Lester Burnham (Peter) harbors a crush on his daughter's cheerleading friend, in the midst of learning that his wife is cheating on him and having to switch jobs.

Lester is subsequently shot by the neighbor, just before he can get with the cheerleader.

Peter suggests renting a movie from Blockbuster, but with the local branch closed, he decides to visit the last one in existence, bringing his reluctant family along for the road trip to Bend, Oregon. The Griffins arrive, but Peter is barred from renting any of the movies by the clerk due to the immense late fee for his copy of Ladyhawke which Peter does not have the money to pay. They attempt to flee with the armed Blockbuster clerk and his co-worker (Haley Joel Osment) on their tail, briefly escaping into the forest and taking refuge in an abandoned cabin in the woods. As the two Blockbuster employees corner them and prepare to shoot them, Peter admits his idea was dumb, but his children don't mind as they reveal that they always enjoy his shenanigans. Just before the family can get shot, a group of Amazon delivery drones arrive to fight off the Blockbuster employees and carry the Griffins home. Back at the house, Chris reveals that he ordered Sliver for the family to watch, but Peter realizes that they don't have the right cables to plug in their VCR. Loading a shotgun, Lois suggests visiting the last Circuit City in St. Augustine, Florida, to obtain the cables, unaware of Jeff Bezos spying on them through their Alexa.

|ShortSummary    = At a pool party for their wedding anniversary, Peter and Lois are gifted a Range Rover from Carter, only to find that he mistakenly bought the miniature model aimed at children. Lois accepts the gift anyway, but while she is changing out of her swimsuit, Joe accidentally walks in on her and sees her naked. When Bonnie details her rekindled sex life the next day, Lois suspects that Joe was only able to perform well because he was thinking of her, but decides to keep seducing him anyway in hopes of bettering his marriage. Meanwhile, Stewie grows to love his mini Range Rover and adopts a new lifestyle to go with it. However, he discovers how much of a hassle taking care of a car is after Brian vomits on it. Stewie ultimately decides to get rid of the car after seeing another kid enjoying his big wheel and almost killing Rupert in a crash. After Quagmire rats her out, Lois confesses that part of why she is doing this is because she feels ignored by Peter, who admits that being married to her for so long has made her less exciting. After Joe tells her to stop seducing him, Lois decides to give some elderly veterans a show instead, but gets arrested alongside Peter, who tried to get back at her. The two decide that they would rather be bored with each other than with anyone else and start to incorporate more roleplay into their sex life.

With help from a therapist (Naomi Ekperigin), they decide to hypnotize Peter into satisfying Lois, accidentally selecting the Extra jingle as his trigger phrase. It works nonetheless, prompting Lois to use it as often as she wants in order to keep her mood and marriage happy. However, the two later humiliate themselves at Pewterschmidt Manor when Peter hears the jingle through the TV while delivering a plate to an ailing Barbara, prompting him to perform oral sex on her instead. Upon getting home, Lois allows Peter to throw up in the trash, only to see Meg watching Extra as the jingle triggers him again. Meanwhile, Stewie has a modern treehouse built in the backyard, but feels insulted when he learns that Brian and Chris feigned being impressed by it. He renovates the home into a man cave, but it turns out that Brian and Chris do not like this either. Vowing revenge, Stewie force-feeds them dry Costco quiches and almost kills them with a crossbow, but they manage to escape with more fake flattery aimed at the weapon's craftsmanship. Stewie ultimately shoots them with a crossbow as payback, before shooting himself after seeing Meg topless.

Peter takes Cleveland to work where his expertise with the local roadmaps convinces Preston Lloyd to offer him a delivery job at the Pawtucket Brewery. While dealing with his friend's incompetence on the job, Cleveland soon manages to earn a promotion while Peter gets demoted to kitchen banter, much to his ire. After being upstaged at a neighborhood party, Peter tries to sabotage Cleveland by sneaking a rat into the main beer tank, but his plan fails and gets him fired by Preston. Cleveland vouches for him, claiming that every workplace needs some mediocre employees. Preston agrees not to fire Peter and offers Cleveland a promotion, which he refuses. While Peter receives the promotion, Cleveland goes back to his old job only for the postmaster to reveal that a reinstatement form had been sent a week prior since all firings have to be approved by the "union head". Cleveland tries and fails to bind his testicle with a rubber band in order to avoid a repeat of the incident. In the final scene, Peter congratulates Cleveland for getting his job back as Peter goes to take a selfie with Mort.

|ShortSummary    = Stewie becomes a fan of Mary Elizabeth Becca Ryan (Emmy Raver-Lampman), a young popstar who used to be on his favorite show Jolly Farm to Brian's annoyance. While at her concert, he posts a viral live tweet that she construes as an insult, resulting in her fanbase harassing him for days on end, even to the point of getting Rupert killed. Stewie decides to confront Mary in person before she leaves her handprint at the Quahog Walk of Fame, only to find that she has already gotten over his comment and barely remembers it.

Meanwhile, Peter finds himself easily fatigued due to his weight, and after refusing to lose weight traditionally, Dr. Hartman suggests he get Lap band surgery, which leaves him with lots of excess skin. He decides to take advantage of his new body by spending more time away from the house, which disappoints Lois, who hoped that his weight loss would help him more easily bond with Chris.

Lois orders them to hang out more, and they quickly bond over making fun of her habits, eventually gaining control of the household by outvoting her. At the advice of Bonnie and Donna, Lois fakes a series of essays and voicemails to make them bicker. Peter and Chris catch on and vow revenge by threatening to destroy Lois's piano. After being called out on her hypocrisy, Lois admits that her payback was mostly rooted in her hurt feelings, but Peter refuses to forgive her until she gets a Mark Davis haircut, which she previously tricked him into doing. Meanwhile, Brian falls for a carny named Amber (Nicole Sullivan). He assumes this relationship will be perfect because it will only last three days and consist of nothing but sex. However, Amber breaks up with him due to them having nothing in common. With his ego wounded, Brian strives to get her back just so he can be the one to call it off, but is threatened into staying with her by her shrewd Uncle Earl. Following an implied "rough week", Brian comes home, only to get crushed by the piano that Peter forgot to unrig. In a twist ending, Peter leaves Lois to find the killer whale that "killed his father", revealing the episode to be part of a screenplay that Seamus wrote and quickly gains fame for.

When reports of their disappearance reach Mayor Wild West, he sets out to rescue them where he manages to save them from an alligator attack off the coast of Florida. Inspired by Mayor West's heroism, Stewie decides to get into politics too, starting with the "snack captain" race at his school, which Doug is also running for. Things get ugly as Doug viciously attacks Stewie, whose counterattacks are repeatedly drowned out by global events, and surges in the polls even after defecating during their debate. Stewie and Brian look for dirt on Doug where they discover that that he still uses a binky, but Doug counters this by suggesting that Stewie is an accident. After Brian notes how plausible the theory is, Stewie repeatedly tries and fails to make his parents fess up. After previously defecting from his campaign and feeding Doug the misinformation, Chris shows Stewie his secret porn stash, containing footage of Peter and Lois conceiving him. Stewie discovers that he was only half of an accident and ends up winning the race, not just because of the scandal making him more relatable, but also due to Doug dying in a plane crash on Election Day.

|ShortSummary    = Peter attempts to bond with Chris over a game of Donkey Kong, but the latter offers to spice it up by reenacting the game, building its levels over the front of the house. Their escapade ends up breaking Lois's foot with a rolling water jug, forcing Peter to raise his children without her for a week. His initial attempts at solo parenting yield mixed results, but he is soon noticed by the public who mistake him for a single parent and laud him for his efforts. Peter decides to pretend that Lois is dead so he can revel in the perks of this, eventually becoming a local celebrity. This catches the attention of a single mother named Becky who offers him and Stewie to have regular playdates at her place. She soon falls for him as he reminds him of her late husband Scott, who nobody wants to hear about, and kisses him. After seeking his pals' advice, Peter decides to break things off before Lois finds out, but Becky invites herself over for dinner. Peter spends the whole evening trying to keep the two women from meeting, but after a series of shenanigans involving Bonnie, a prowler looking for Meg, and even Timothy Q. Mouse (Jay Pharoah), he fails at the task. While both are upset that he lied, Peter admits to his motivation behind it and states that he's proud to have a mother to help raise his kids. Lois suggests that Becky can do so much better than him anyway, to which she agrees, but she ends up leaving in a huff after nobody will let her tell Scott's story for the third time.

|ShortSummary    = While at lunch after Meg shoves past the other students to nab her preferred slice of pizza, she gets noticed by Principal Shepherd who is coaching the girls' basketball team and offers her to try out. When she succeeds at the tryouts but not during practice, Quagmire points out that Peter's belittling is what motivated her to play at her best, so Peter agrees to insult her from the stands at every game. During one of the later games, Peter loses his voice and almost costs Meg the passage to the championship, with her only making it due to the other team getting disqualified for having Gilbert Gottfried as a player. With some provocation from Meg and despite Dr. Hartman's warnings, Peter insults her one last time, although her championship victory results in no more than a picture on the wall at Applebee's. Meanwhile, Stewie discovers several baby-centric conspiracy videos on YouTube, including one that tells him the real reason behind nap time. When it turns out to be correct, he falls further down the rabbit hole, eventually discovering that Lois's "the floor is lava" trick is just a ploy to keep him away while she is sleeping with Peter. The sight of his parents having sex traumatizes him so much that he develops multiple personalities: Mrs. Padberry-Wilkerson, Boone, Kermit the Frog, The Jace Man, Rick, and Gilbert Gottfried. When Brian fails to help Stewie out on his own, he takes him to Bruce where the personas start to butt heads in an attempt to work things out. Brian eventually calms Stewie down by telling him that his parents were not actually having sex, before telling him that the white lies his parents tell him are actually for his own good.

Note: This episode was dedicated in memory of Gilbert Gottfried, who posthumously guest-starred in the episode.

|ShortSummary    = After one of Carter's ships spills oil into the Gulf of Mexico, he strives to rebuild his image per the suggestion of his PR people. As Lois will not let him blame Peter for the incident, he decides to take a photo-op with an orphan girl named Tatum, but quickly grows to enjoy her company and decides to take her in. This upsets Lois, knowing how poorly he raised her, and she only becomes more jealous when she realizes how well Tatum is being taken care of. Her jealousy peaks after he takes everyone to the Newport Zoo––something he failed to do when she was a kid––where she ends up losing track of Tatum. Following a shenanigan-filled search, the Griffins find her trapped inside the gorilla exhibit as a rescue worker is killed trying to get her out. Taking the blame for the situation, Lois climbs in and manages to drive the gorillas away by rambling about her bizarre dreams (foreshadowed in the cold open), before apologizing to Carter for her behavior. Carter explains that he knows he was not the best father, and just wants to make up for his past mistakes. However, this turns out to be short-lived by the final scene as he decides that Tatum must leave since he is unable to hear her during dinner at his lengthy table. Peter is shown outside on a giraffe who states that Carter's table is too long.

|ShortSummary    = When Stella's cat dies, Preston informs Peter about his new bereavement leave policy, which would grant him six weeks off in the event that he loses a pet. After a failed attempt to kill Brian by cutting his Prius' brakes, Peter takes in an eighty-year-old, German-speaking scarlet macaw, whom he names Gonzo after the Muppet of the same name. Despite everyone warming up to him, Joe soon discovers that Gonzo used to belong to Adolf Hitler, making Peter a Nazi by association. Lois calls Animal Control to get Gonzo taken away, but Peter flees to seek guidance from Rabbi Goldstein (Richard Kind). When Gonzo recites some Torah scriptures, the two realize that he is actually Jewish and was just faking his Nazism to survive the Holocaust. They celebrate the revelation with matzo, but Gonzo chokes to death on his piece. The family holds Gonzo's funeral in the bathroom only to overflow the toilet when Peter attempts to flush his corpse. Meanwhile, Brian self-publishes a book called Chasing My TALE and gives Stewie an autographed copy, which he soon finds in a Little Free Library.

When everyone else says they stole nothing, Lois eventually finds out through Dottie, the house's owner, that she mistakenly stole a fancy shampoo bottle. Meanwhile, Stewie and Brian discover saltwater taffy during their trip and decide to buy it in bulk, selling it door-to-door back in Quahog. Aside from Bruce, no one seems interested in purchasing their product, so they decide to rebrand it as something else. Eventually, the two promote it as a COVID-19 cure through Joe Rogan and sell it at Donald Trump rallies under the name "ChewAnon." After being belittled by her family and even Joe and Bonnie, Lois decides to return the shampoo in person, but Dottie (Casey Wilson) refuses to change her review. Angered, Lois stakes out her house and discovers that her weakness is Doordash. After applying to become one of the island's two drivers, Lois threatens to leave a negative review of her own, blackmailing Dottie into changing hers.

Following a near-death experience with the country's dissident laws made out by Vladimir Putin, Ivan proposes to her as he does not want to risk losing her again. The two are wed, but Meg expresses sadness at her family missing the wedding, so Ivan suggests a visit to America, giving her his phone to call them. Meg overhears him gloating to the bartender about using her for a green card marriage.

Meanwhile, Lois sees that Chris does not appear in the Adam West High yearbook. She urges him to join an extracurricular, but none of the existing ones suit him.

They agree to shoot porn together in exchange for Chris getting his extracurricular credits. Lois soon discovers their scheme and reports it to the school board. There, Chris explains that the porn was only done to offset school budget cuts and that the experience helped him discover skills he didn't know he had.
