'Family Guy' Season 19 Episode 3 Preview: What does Peter gain from injuring a family of rodents?
Opening with a swear word was hint enough for the wild ride this season of 'Family Guy' was going to be, but Seth McFarlane once again continues to surprise us with how outrageous the Griffin family can get. From Stewie's first word being the F-word, Meg thinking she's an X-Man, Peter considering himself a part of the mob to Chris practicing sleeping with one eye open and getting hunted down by his toddler brother for being the original owner of a soft toy, it's been crazy. As for the third episode of Season 19, Peter does something absolutely ridiculous with absolutely unforeseeable consequences. So buckle up.
The official synopsis of the upcoming episode titled ‘Boys & Squirrels’ states: "Peter injures himself and a family of squirrels in a chainsaw accident; Chris and Stewie try to nurse one of the injured rodents back to health; a chiropractor fixes Peter’s injury by realigning his spine — and restoring him to his 'true height.'"
Trust Peter to find a way to make everything about himself, but in all fairness, he did end up getting hurt too. Perhaps noticing that his children aren't quite paying him the attention he would so like to have, Peter ends up getting his spine aligned. And the hint of being restored to his true height can mean only one thing from the Griffin patriarch's end: the rest of his family and pretty much the entirety of Quahog never hearing the end of it. Makes one feel bad for Lois the most because even though Peter's children could drown out his brags, Lois might have to put up with his insane boasts way longer than the rest of the town.
It's always something or the other for Lois though, with the season premiere putting her in the spotlight for blame when Stewie screamed the F-word during a Church sermon. In the second episode, hurt and offended Stewie had arrived at the most outrageous epiphany after his retreat in Baline, Venice and India — he must kill Chris for owning Rupert, aka a stuffed giraffe before it had been passed down to Stewie. And now it's Peter's injuries, and heaven knows what misadventure Lois' two sons will be up to in their attempt to save the rodents. Seriously though, can she get a break?
'Family Guy' Season 19 airs on Sundays at 9.30 pm ET/ 8.30 pm CT on FOX.
