- DirectorJosue CervantesRon HughartBrent WoodsStarsSeth MacFarlaneWendy SchaalScott GrimesWhile Jeff is away, Roger realizes that he has a crush on Haley. Meanwhile, Stan decides to sell his SUV himself instead of trading it in for lower than his asking price.The worst episode of the show, by far. An incredibly uncomfortable, disturbing and dark episode. Dark humor can be funny, but you at least have to try and get results like that. Just to give you an idea of how disturbing this episode is, it features, Jeff getting skinned alive, A father and daughter breaking their necks and dying in Stan's car and a being set on fire and ripped apart by a large feline in front of an audience. Skip this episode!

What more can I say?
- DirectorRodney CloudenRon HughartBrent WoodsStarsSeth MacFarlaneWendy SchaalScott GrimesRoger studies crime scene photography while Stan bullies Steve to toughen him up.Stan constantly beats up his son. The ending is also Family guy levels of gruesome.

Feeling threatened by her always-visiting mother-in-law, Francine is determined to cut Stan's umbilical cord and figure out what keeps going wrong with the men in her life.Stan is borderline incestuous in this episode, to the point that he gives his mother baths and kidnaps all of her partners so she can stay with her forever. Stan also completely neglects Francine in this episode. So uncomfortable.
- DirectorPam CookeRon HughartAnthony LioiStarsSeth MacFarlaneWendy SchaalScott GrimesStan reveals that he has never killed anyone in the line of duty, so Stan's friends and Roger try to set him up for an easy first kill.Roger and Stan's CIA buddies find out Stan has never killed someone so they introduce him to people they consider "killable". Steve and his friends are also groomed by a pedophile who Stan kills. One word to describe this episode: DISTURBING!
- DirectorJosue CervantesRon HughartBrent WoodsStarsSeth MacFarlaneWendy SchaalScott GrimesWhile Stan and Francine go on vacation to a water park, Roger upsets Steven when he uses his new custody status to get principal Lewis fired.Steve has a weird relationship with his principal, three teachers are also blown up. Despite this, this episode is mostly just boring.

Like A ward show, this episode is mainly boring and pretty un-funny
- DirectorJohn AoshimaJansen YeeRon HughartStarsSeth MacFarlaneWendy SchaalScott GrimesKlaus gets one of Roger's alter egos deployed to Iraq so that he can take over as the family therapist, but he winds up doing more harm than good.This episode isn't terrible, compared to other episodes, it's just not that good. In terms of family argument episodes, Family guys's 'Seahorse seashell part was much worse, but this still isn't very enjoyable.
