Brian, Peter and others in “Ratings Guy”

[Peter sits on the couch depressed when Brian walks in]

Hey, what's wrong, Peter?

I miss my friend, Brian. I mean, I was having fun with those Nielsen boxes, but what's the point if I don't get Joe and Quagmire to enjoy it with me? I guess I shouldn't have messed with television.

Well, it's not exactly your fault. The networks never should have listened to you in the first place. This is exactly what makes bad television: pandering to the lowest common denominator.

So what do I do, Brian?

Well, you still have these boxes. That means you still have the power to influence television. Maybe you can use that power to help restore television to the way it was.

You're right, Brian. Maybe if I watch smart, quality shows, that'll help get things back to the way they were. We can use these boxes for good and...

[Suddenly, three bullets destroy the Nielsen boxes]

What the hell?!

[cut to Mayor West with a shotgun]

That's for adding another tree to One Tree Hill!

Oh, my God! He destroyed every last box!

Holy crap!

We're sunk now, Peter. There goes your one chance to get television back to the way it was.

Wait a minute. Maybe not, Brian.

[A lightbulb appears over Peter's head]

I think I just got an idea.

[Peter gets up and breaks the lightbulb]

Aah! I got glass in my face! Oh, crap. Now I forgot what it was.

[Peter sits back down and another lightbulb appears over his head]

I got it!

[Peter gets up again and breaks the second lightbulb]

Aah! Son of a bitch!
