    Review

    mom,mom,mommy,mommy,lois,lois,.......................

    I loved every minute of this episode. It is a fresh kick off for the 5th season. The plot, as the title reveals it, is about stewie loving Lois after she saves his teddy bear Rupert. All the drama and fun starts once Stewie's love is over the limit. This is not just a typical family guy episode. It had all the laughs and outrage delivered keenly. And it had a strange plot and a strange Stewie, a Stewie that we had never seen before.

    I can't stress enough how hilarious this episode was. And I'm not saying this because I love the show. I am saying it because this episode practically gave the 5th season its scent. Family Guy fans, if you haven't already seen this episode, you should, it's totally worth watching. I loved it and I am sure you will love it too.

    Stewie becomes attached to Lois after she saves and repairs his beloved teddy bear, Rupert. Meanwhile, Peter and his friends sue Dr. Hartman for allegedly molesting them (when really he was giving them a prostate exam).


    • Attempted Rape: This is what Peter thinks Dr. Hartman did to him.
    • Beg the Dog: Peter goes for a physical at the hospital, but when Dr. Hartman tries to give him a routine prostate exam, he thinks he's been sexually violated and files a lawsuit that costs the doctor his practice. Later, Peter starts having genuine problems with his prostate and, after a failed attempt at a Paper-Thin Disguise as a delivery man with a "package" placed on his behind, tearfully begs Dr. Hartman to give him the check-up for fear of a serious health issue. Hartman ultimately decides that he can't turn away someone in need and helps Peter.
    • Bowdlerization: The scene of Stewie lying on top of Lois and Peter mistaking Stewie's nose for Lois' nipple had an extra scene on the DVD and cable rerun where Peter sticks his finger in Stewie's mouth, mistaking it for Lois' clitoris and outer genitals and commenting in his sleep, "Oh, you are so ready!" The DVD commentary mentions that FOX cut the scene because it was too sexual for primetime TV. Some of the free TV syndication versions cut the entire scene including the, otherwise harmless, part where Stewie wakes up Lois to a new attitude.
    • Brick Joke: Mr. Sulu appears in a cutaway gag as "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Sulu," giving a passer-by a flirtatious "E-helloooooo!" Later, in a Star Trek spoof, he passes by and check out Peter's butt while giving him the same flirtatious "E-helloooooo!" He shows up one more time as the blockage in Peter's prostate.
    • Crazy-Prepared: While Peter frets about his prostate, Seamus shows him a poster of a diseased one.
    • Double Standard: Rape, Male on Male: Lois' first reaction to Peter claiming to have been raped is to laugh hysterically in disbelief. Sure, Peter wasn't actually raped, but Lois's response is still awful.
    • Fake Memories: You'd think a judge (who has been shown as fairly smart and reasonable in past episodes) would be able to convince Peter that a prostate exam does not equal a sexual assault (if done right and by a trained and licensed professional), and even notes that it was uneventful. Yet Peter merely suggesting that he "try to remember" what "actually" happened is all that it takes to trigger thoughts of him being molested by Dr. Hartman. The judge immediately revokes Hartman's medical license.
    • False Rape Accusation: Peter mistakes Dr. Hartman's attempt at giving him a prostate exam for sexual assault.
    • Fan Disservice: Peter whining and walking home with his pants around his ankles after he was allegedly raped. Lampshaded by Adam West, who takes one look at Peter and says, "Ugh, get a tan!"
    • Foreign-Language Tirade: In one scene, Stewie accuses Brian of lusting after Lois and the two start shouting over each other. At one point in the shouting match, Stewie starts speaking Spanish. Brian is confused, so Stewie explains that he fell asleep watching Sabado Gigante last night.
    • Heel–Face Revolving Door: Stewie grew to love Lois for saving Rupert, but goes back to hating her again after she apologizes for ignoring him like Brian suggested she do when she grew sick of Stewie's newfound admiration for her.
    • Humiliation Conga: A rather cruel one at that: Peter thinks that he's been sexually assaulted, his wife laughs in his face when he tells her and he slowly goes more and more crazy, eventually culminating in a full mental breakdown whenever he sees pointing gestures (TV, Chris, and Evil Monkey [which he mistakes for Meg]). Then his friends make it worse by telling him that they went through the same "horrors" and convince him to take action against Dr. Hartman, only to turn to him because his prostate is heavily infected.
    • Idiot Ball: Peter, Quagmire, and Cleveland thinking Dr. Hartman "violated" them is enough, but both Joe and the Judge should know that a prostate exam is a legitimate medical exam.
    • Lack of Empathy: Granted, Peter was exaggerating his supposed molestation by Dr. Hartman, but Lois finding it amusing rather than appalling was a crappy move on her part.
    • Laser-Guided Karma: Ironically, something Peter did for a (mostly) selfless reason, he pays for it anyway (see Yank the Dog's Chain below).
    • Mama Bear: Lois goes out of her way to fight a dog for Rupert, then stitches him back to normal.
    • Not What It Looks Like: It takes Peter the entire episode to realize that a doctor sticking his finger up a patient's anal canal during what the doctor says is a prostate exam...is a legitimate part of a prostate exam.
    • Overly-Long Gag: Stewie repeatedly saying "Mom" (and variants thereof) to Lois. Anyone who's been around a child over the age of three will know that this is 100% Truth in Television.
    • Plot Hole: Mr. Sulu was what was wrong with Peter's prostate, yet he was next to Peter in an earlier scene.
    • Precision F-Strike: After Peter tells Lois he was "raped" and runs out of the room crying, Lois flatly says, "Fucking idiot."
    • Sanity Slippage: Peter, who cuts off pieces of his hair while looking at himself in a mirror while calling himself a "whore".
    • Shout-Out:
      • Finger-related references, in the scene when Peter is watching TV, including E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Freddy Got Fingered and the Yellow Pages.
      • All in the Family: The closing credits use the iconic 1970s TV series' closing, plus nearly identical typeface for the credits, scenes of Quahog patterned much after Queens (where the Bunkers lived) and Peter saying, ""Family Guy was videotaped in front of a live studio audience," referencing the use of a laugh track in the final scene. There's even a jump cut copied directly from said credits.
      • Peter tries to get a prostate exam from McCoy. True to his character, he tells Peter that he's "a doctor, not a patsy." Enter Sulu, who had been in a cutaway gag a few minute earlier, walking by to check out Peter's bare butt and give a flirtatious "E-heloooooo!"
    • Title Drop:

      Brian: (teasing sing-song voice) Stewie loves Lois.

    • Ungrateful Bastard: Lois comes over to her baby and lovingly kisses him over and over again after he injures his arm, and then Stewie retaliates by berating her and threaten to testify against her.
    • Wrestler of Beasts: Lois fights off a dog that had taken Stewie's teddy bear Rupert.
    • Yank the Dog's Chain: Peter and his friends celebrate getting Hartman sued...and then Peter all of a sudden has early signs of prostate cancer, which is bad news because no other doctor is willing to examine Peter because they're afraid that he'll sue them like he did Dr. Hartman.
    • Your Television Hates You: Shortly after returning home, a shaken Peter tries to get his mind (or is that his imagination) off his visit to Dr. Hartman's office by watching television ... only to scan through channels showing the movies E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial and Freddy Got Fingered, and a commercial for Yellow Pages ("Let your fingers do the walking"), all of them having to do with — naturally — fingers. Peter snaps and rushes upstairs to his room.
