Dad, I tried to go to school, but this guy won't let me.

The U.S. Army. [points to tanks and soldiers on the other side of the fence]
PeterOh, that's a good army.
You're drunk again!
PeterNo, I'm just exhausted 'cause I've been up all night drinking.
Oh, my God! You can only play the piano when you're drunk!
PeterThat's not true! I can also vomit, fall down and make dirty calls to your sister when I'm drunk!
PeterHey, since I became President, profits have been higher than Alyssa Milano. [laughs]
[cut to Alyssa Milano in reality, watching the show]
What kinda cheap shot...?! [to her lawyer] Joel!
I'm suing. I'm suing. I'm on it. I'm on it.
PeterYep.
Yep.
Yep.
Mmm-Hmm. [they drink]
[after seeing Chris' penis] Oh, my! Well, no wonder he's always slouching.
PeterHow the hell did this happen? I'm supposed to be the man of the house. You must be so ashamed of me.
Oh, Peter, I care as much about the size of your penis as you care about the size of my breasts.
PeterOH, MY GOD! [runs away]
Okay. The psychologist wants us to try an exercise called "role reversal," where we pretend to be the person who makes us angry. I'll go first. [imitating Peter] Don't listen to your mother, kids. She's worthless and dumb and ignore her and only listen to me, Peter.
Peter[imitating Lois] I'm Lois. I break for yard sales. But I don't let Peter buy anything he likes, like that Narragansett Beer sign where the hot chick has two mugs for jugs. It was eight freaking dollars and we have a dozen places to put it!
Ooh, ooh, me next, me next. [imitating Brian] I'm the dog. I'm well read and have a diverse stock portfolio. But I'm not above eating grass clippings and regurgitating them on the small braided rug near the door.
[imitating Stewie] I'm a pompous little Anti-Christ who will probably abandon my plans for world domination when I grow up and fall in love with a rough trick named Jim.
PeterYou just hit me!
That's right!
[Peter punches her back, knocking her onto the floor]
You can't hit me, I'm a girl!
PeterSometimes I wonder.
I just wanna kill myself! I'm going upstairs right now, and eating a whole bowl of peanuts! [blank stares from Peter and Lois] I'm allergic to peanuts! [more blank stares] You don't know anything about me! [runs upstairs]
PeterWho was that guy?
[Peter paces back and forth just as Mr. Weed is on his way over for dinner]
Peter, calm down. Everything's gonna be fine.
PeterI hope so, 'cause if I blow this, I'm gonna have to go back to my old job at the Electric Company.
[cut to the Electric Company with Peter and another man as Soft-Shoe Silhouettes]

[Stewie walks up to a lady hanging up a framed pot of flowers painting on the wall.]
There we are. It's a Van Gogh print. Isn't it beautiful?
Oh, yes — I often fantasized about what this house would be like with more culture.
[Cut to the boys sitting on chairs in a semicircle, in gentlemen's outfits, talking very quickly in a posh English accent.]
The port is quite good.
Yes, quite good.
Indeed.
PeterMost certainly.
What year is it?
'51.
Ah.
PeterDelectable.
Indeed.
Yes.
Peter[catches fire] Oh, dear!
What is it?
PeterI've spontaneously combusted.
Oh, I am sorry.
PeterOh, it's quite all right. I've grown tired of living.
Ah, very good then.
For the best.
Yes, indeed.
Oh, is it raining again?
[Peter is driving Lois and Carol to the hospital as Carol is going into labour. Lois is comforting Carol in the backseat]
[to Carol] Don’t worry, Carol, we’re almost there. [noticing the car has stopped suddenly] Peter, why are we stopped?
Peter[talking to the drive-thru ordering speaker] Uh, yeah, I’ll have three cheeseburgers..
Peter, for God sake, she’s having a baby!
PeterOh, yeah, that’s right. And a kid’s meal. And I guess I’ll have fries. [to Lois and Carol] If I have fries, is anybody else gonna have any? Because I don’t want to be the only one eating them, I feel like a fatty.
Peter[after Carol has given birth] Oh, my God!
What? What?!
Peter[holds a crying baby] It's a beautiful baby girl.
Oh, a baby girl! I'm so happy!
PeterBut she has a penis. Well, we're gonna have to do something about that. [grabs a scalpel]
[takes the scalpel] Peter, no! It's a boy!
PeterI don't know Brian... Maybe Lois is right. Maybe it is time for me to get a job.
Yeah, Too bad you always blow it in the interview.
[flashback to said interview]
Okay, Peter, where do you see yourself in five years?
Peter[internally] Don't say doin' your wife, don't say doin' your wife, don't say doing' your wife... [aloud] Doin' your... [stares at the employer's family photograph] ...son?
[the employer stares at Peter in confusion]
[Brian dives into the race track and tackles Seabreeze]
Oh, my God!
